Cool! I wouldn't mind picking up a set like that!!! Les seems to get some bad press on the forums...But I respect him alot and find his show really entertaining...Good Find...I wish He'd make some new episodes already I've seen 'em all numerous times...Oddly enough I'll still watch them when there on.
 
I didn't know that they had them in stores, cool!
I wonder if Canadian stores have them?

that's considerately cheaper than it was to order it from canada....didn't get the bonus disc either.
 
Not to diss Les, but (FYI) Bear's 2nd season starts Fri June 15. Thanks for the DVD info. I'm going to the great Walmart of China ASAP to get those DVD's. The more times I watch the reruns of both of these radically different survival styles, the more I learn about the small details of both approaches. I give them both a lot of credit.
 
I will have to get that DVD. I think that bothg these guys are great and that they are tyrying to show worst case unprepaired survival. The one tool that both of them have all the time is first clas knowledge of Flora & fauna, which I don't have but am working on.
 
Neato. Boy that'll annoy my wife....lol.
 
Picked mine up today. The Wal-mart version is definitely the one to get. It's $1.04 cheaper than getting it from Amazon and has the Urban Survival disc.
 
I'll have to get that. Les's show is pretty entertaining, and he does have some good advice thrown in too.
 
Just finished up the Urban Survival show and it was pretty good. I have not been able to catch it on TV. Learned a few new tricks from it.
 
Just noticed from Discovery, when I looked up about the new Man vs. Wild season, that they have Man vs. Wild on DVD also. Each episode is a disc and $21.95 each!!!!!????? 9 episodes at $21.95, each!!

Just WOW!

I just dont think there are enough exclamation marks in the world to show my surprise at this.

me Wow too!!! :eek:

Guess I won't be getting his collection anytime soon :grumpy:
 
I bought my copy today -- watched the urban survival ep first since I've seen the others.

1. It's really weird to see Les in decent light with somebody else handling the camera. :D

2. As usual, the ep is entertaining and gave me some good ideas. My only complaint is that the editing is really weird. Instead of doing a segment on surviving a flooded home, and another on surviving a blackout in a high-rise office building, etc. etc., the four or five 'segments' were all mixed up together. It was distracting to go from cooking fish without heat in a flooded home to making a homemade torch in an office building to harvesting useful parts from a car stuck in high water.


Still, this set is well worth the price. Now, to make 'archive' copies and sell my original disks... :D
 
Les is currently filming Season 2. I think it is supposed to air sometime late 2007 here in Canada. Don't quote me on it though, I am just repeating what I heard elsewhere.
 
Thanks for the heads up. I'll have to add it to the collection of survival titles we have available to rent.
