Bear-ly Possible

There's a show called "Man vs. Wild," where Bear Grylls does all kinds of amazing survival stuff.  The problem is that they don't do a very good job of telling you how to survive if you refuse to eat gross stuff like snake heads, fish eyes, and weaver ant larvae.  I'm not about to drink my own pee!  And they don't tell you how you'd get up the cliffside by the river if you're not strong enough to climb a bamboo shoot all the way to the top or if there's no tree limb conveniently located for you.  So, my tip is this: if you don't want to eat gross things or drink your own pee or jump over huge glacier crevasses, you better not find yourself in a situation when you need to use Bear Grylls's survival skills.
