Bear Grylls To Be New Chief Scout!

[craven]

i'm not saying that bear is a bad person, in fact he seems like a nise guy, nor do i have a problem with what he does, but with the way he does it, i'm just not convinced that this is a good role model, i've watched him over the years on various show doing sas training, french foreign legion training, climbing and the para sailing, he is an adventurer there is no doubt, and your right we do need more adventurous people in this country, it is what made it great, maybe he is just like my heroes, scott, shackleton, finnes or baden powell, only time will tell if he to dies in the persuit of another goal like so many others! everyone is entiteled to there own opinion, i can see where some of you are comming from, and you make a good point, but i would still like to see bear doing what he does without the stupid stunts, but then, maybe thats what got him on the telly in the first place, take that away nd what have you got?

If we had someone like Bear when I was a scout I would probably still be doing it now.

No offence to any of you guys out there who are leaders, you are the salt of the earth, but my god some of you are boring.
