L O L !!!

Exactly my impression of him (as he is portrayed on the show).

I'll go with Les.

I think both of them know their stuff, but Bear takes way too many crazy risks that could put him in jeopardy in a real life situation. I haven't seen many episodes of Man vs. Wild... has he ever screwed up badly and broken an ankle?

Les knows how to pace himself and conserve energy... that's a much more valuable skill in dangerous conditions.
