Surviorman/Man vs Wild?

[pathalogical]

How many of you have actually eaten bugs, worms and squeezed the juice out of elephant crap ? These two shows are not realistic because not likely any of us will ever be in that type of circumstance. However, I think OLN's Mantracker is a lot better. Why ? Because the Prey are allowed to bring (correct me if I'm wrong) whatever they want with them. The kind of stuff we talk about here: backpacks, raingear, lights, firestarter, compass, binocs and maps. Most of it takes place during the day and then stop at sunset for the night. I haven't seen anyone eating bugs and drinking crap juice !!! This show is much easier on the stomach !

Eating bugs is really no big deal, it is a common practice in many countries. Insects contain a much greater degree of protien per weight than any meat or poultry. In fact in some Asian countries you can find them roasted at food vendors very much like we would roasted peanuts here.
