Bear spent time as a soldier in the SAS, honing his survival skills. After his military career he became one of the youngest climbers ever to reach the summit of Mount Everest. His Emmy Award-nominated Man vs. Wild TV series grew to be one of the most-watched shows on the planet, reaching an estimated 1.2 billion viewers. Since then he has gone on to host more extreme adventure TV shows across more global networks than anyone else in the world, including six seasons of the global hit TV show Running Wild with Bear Grylls. The show has included notable personalities including; President Obama, Prime Minister Modi and Julia Roberts, to name a few.

I don’t want to spoil it for the viewer. Let me just say, part of the game is you making bad decisions, and some of those decisions, it’s almost a human rights issue. We’re not gonna… I wondered about the scenes with animals — the wolf, the jaguar, the memorable bit with a sheep. I assume they required finding an animal and making sure it was in the right place at the right time? We all know that children today have to deal with a lot of pressures from many different directions. They have challenges ahead of them too and as adults we can sometimes easily forget we were in their position once too, with a world of challenge ahead and not too many ideas as to how we were going to cope with it. Today there is help for young people, often in the form of a book which gives them a good excuse to have less screen time, to have some time to chill and read, discover, enjoy. Bear Grylls is Chief Scout, he is also a great author putting pen to paper for books that will help to guide young people into new mindsets. You Vs the World published by DK is no exception. Bear’s tough. If you remember him from his Man vs. Wild days, you’ve seen him jump into things like that naked, with no editing. So yeah, he fell in the ice. He pulled himself up out of there. What he actually did was he stripped down, because his clothes were soaking wet, and started rolling in the snow to get the wet stuff off of him. For Bear, this includes a very public U-turn from evangelical vegan to committed carnivore. “Our bodies don’t deal with being plant-based, in my experience, but they do deal well with animal products.

This makes me feel better, because I poisoned him several times over the course of watching the show.

We are thrilled to bring you the Programme for Schools live this year, with in-person events for pupils in Key Stage 2 on Thursday 25 May and Key Stages 3 & 4 on Friday 26 May. Over the years our friends have gone, ‘Wow, are you OK with your kids doing that?’ But I don’t think we empower our children when we try to strip risk from their lives. What we do is make their risk-management muscle weak. You’ve got to teach them how to have good instinct – when to push, when to hold, when to just have a little feel. These are all key skills for life. I think you always naturally worry about your kids and want them to learn from your mistakes, but generally I would say I’ve learned more from them than they’ve probably learned from me,” says Bear, who has just launched The Bear Grylls Adventure, an activity centre in Birmingham, where teens are encourage to have a go at everything from axe throwing to shark diving.Correct. The cameramen stopped because they had to change batteries, and they needed a break because those cameras weigh 40 pounds. I was like, “Aw man, we should be filming this!” But it was too late to capture it. And it was for Netflix Kids, so I didn’t know how they’d feel about naked Bear Grylls. Bear seems to helicopter out before anything truly terrible happens. How did you decide where to draw the line when showing the consequences of each choice?
