Posted on 01 August 2011.
Bear Grylls seems to trigger some fairly extreme reactions in people. Whether he’s on our TV screens chomping on a gruesome insect snack, fording a crocodile infested river in the dark, or micro gliding over Everest, people either can’t get enough or want to change channel immediately.
