Which Survival Celebrity would you want with you in a survival situation?

I just finished watching Ray Mears' Northern Wilderness series, and this is the man I definately want on my team. Considering he's gotten a bit tubby, seems he does all right on the eating side of bushcraft.

Bear Gryls would probably make me rappel down a waterfall on a slippery vine when there's perfectly good trail beside it. Then make me eat carribou eyeballs washed down with bear pee.

Les Stroud would probably starve me, then make me carry his camera equipment. And then later drive me insane with his lame all-night harmonica playing.

So what about everybody else, any particular favorites?
 
simple. NONE of them. I would prefer to have a LOCAL resident who knows the area, terrain, flora & fauna, and weather very well. No disrespect to the TV types.........
 
I'd probably end up dead but I'll have to say Bear. He's more of a jokester and it would be
entertaining watching him do backflips and eating bear poo, plus his accent is funny :D
 
Kelly Brook from the movie Survival Island. Have you seen her in that white bikini?
 
Who else but Les Hiddens The Bush Tucker Man, after all I'm in Oz and he knows his stuff.Although the bird in the bikini is a close second lol

Youre from New York your accent is funnier.

I would say Ray Mears first, very methodical
Bear 2nd I dont think hed do so many risky things in a real survival scenario

Les Stroud Never Never Never.............whining, starving and carrying camera gear. no thank you:thumbdn:

Well if we are going to play by those rules -

When I was 14 I would have wanted Brooke Sheilds to be my Survival mate:

We can use Jeff Randall? I want him. He seems to know his stuff :D

If it HAS to be someone on TV, I would go for Ray Mears. If it can be someone else, Dave Canterbury is from my area, so he knows it very well. So, him.

Otherwise, I would just want to take my dad, as he is the smartest person I know.
