Who would win in an eat-off between these two.
Les Stroud.
Chubby ol’ Ray would win hands-down
Bear only eats if he can rip the head off a rattlesnack and dip it in eviscerated camel.
Ray eats anything, even trees.
This is true. Plus, Bear would just go back to his 5-star hotel and order room service.
Ray Mears > Bear Grylls, at anything.
Man’s a legend.
Agreed. Besides not having a comfy hotel to stay at during the shoot, Les actually looks like he’d need the food.
Well considering I never included Les in the eat-off I hardly think he counts
To hell with the both of them. I’d vote for this guy.
After six months imprisoned in a Pathet Lao camp, escaped, and survived for 23 days in the jungle before being rescued.
I haven’t seen Mears’ shows, so I’ll say that if Grylls isn’t allowed to strip down to nothing, while on camera, before or after the challenge, then he won’t have sufficient morale to win. (That’s my only explanation for his getting nekkid in fairly inhospitable environments, like the Arctic - he needs the exhibitionism to be motivated to do the rest of the stuff.)
