We’ve all been waiting for it. I even pontificated on it back in February. A former consultant is confirming that portions of Discovery Channel show Man Vs Wild have been staged and Bear Grylls has stayed in hotels during filming of the survival show, instead of living in the backcountry as the show portrays. Apparently the Discovery Channel is confirming this and promising to re-edit shows to inform its viewers of the actual circumstances surrounding the episodes’ production.
But what do we expect? He’s got a flipping camera crew following him around the backcountry… how could Hollywood stay away?
