I remember seeing a Bear Grylls episode where he was in the Eastern Sierra trying to get out ( I know this area like the back of my hand) and he made soooooooo many stupid mistakes it was laughable .... I know that subject too well ..........
This was the episode that made me realize that Discovery Channel was messing with me. The lake he swam across at the end I was sure was Grant Lake.

Yes swimming across the lake (risk hypothermia) was ridiculous .... the smart move is to walk around the shoreline, duh ...

He also down climbed a steep rock face when he did not need to, everywhere in the High Sierra where there is a steep rock face, there are always easier ways down.

Saw a bit of the show last night, and even though I'm not a saltwater yakker, it didn't take long for me to groan at all the hype, the fake drama, and the terrible continuity errors.

But thanks to reading this thread, I now about Jim's shows. Searching for them next.

Reality TV is an oxymoron.
