Bear Grylls injured

[firecrest]

Yes, but you didn't crawl inside the pig did you?

I would if I was paid what Bear is paid for his stunts.

From what I read Firecrest, the pig has probably got it's eye on you.

I would have left the eyes in the pig so it could see you through the week *

To be honest, if you are in a survival situation and all you have to rely on is what you remember from watching a TV show, you're probably b*ggered anyway!

Doesn't matter it it's Ray Mears, Bear Grylls or Postman Pat!

The chances of the average ITV viewer finding themeslves in the middle of a rainforest with no other source of survival information isn't particularly likely... so I can't see any issue with Mr Grylls playing the action-hero bit as entertainment.

Postman pat gives some really good advice, like using sound (church bells) to help someone find their way in heavy fog, or using a ladder to get two children out when they broke through a frozen pond. These are situations that the average viewer can find them selves in and I am quite glad that the safety advice is left to a post office crack commando S&R specialist like Pat not TA specialist Bear.

He'd probably be better to share a beer with as well....

I hope the union made sure his managers had provided him with the correct sort of ladder for effecting a frozen pond rescue

Only after a full risk-assessment had been completed

Anyway, the speed posties have to walk these days Pat would probably just glide over the surface of the pond with nary a ripple.

Ill tell you what - I go camping in all of postman pats gear (well, me dads anyway!) That old postie uniform is very warm, its all 100% wool. Its actually the same as the army gear , only dyed deep blue, so if you want some free army gear, go be a christmas postie for a while

Nick a postbag trolly to.
