from an interview:
[quote:041b3]Bear: That was the first show I did, and health and safety insisted if I wanted to get in that river with those rapids, I had to wear a thin flotation device for one particular shot. After that show, I told the producers if I'm going to do it, I need to do it on my terms, i.e. no vest. And the rest of the series, they've allowed me to do it all my way.[/quote:041b3]
not to mention this guy has a family. i mean, the point of the show is to show survival techniques in life or death situations. because he isnt 'really' in one, i wouldnt blame him for not risking his life to show a technique that would only be used in a drastic situation.
