Although I liked Survivorman better, I still liked his show.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Wow, what a fraud.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I don't care what you say. Even if he rigs some of the stuff on the show, he's still 100x more man than anyone else here. The guy summited Everest and went across the Atlantic ocean on a small boat for Christ's sake.

are you sure it was everest and the atlantic? and just the rock climb at the gym and his backyard swimming pool with awesome camera tricks/effects? :rockon:
Yea he probably is still a bad-ass in real life, but I was disappointed after seeing that clip. I was a fan when his show first started. ButI think if there is one thing that human beings can't stand the most, it is the feeling that you've been deceived or manipulated. If the show is more about the ratings than authenticity, you can count me out from watching it. Now you have to question everything he does. Like did he really eat raw zebra meat? If he didn't, then not only is he deceiving us, but he is giving horrible advice which may get someone killed. I recalled a thread on this very forum where people were contemplating to do what he did (Yikes!). There's a whole website dedicated to exposing him apparently: http://www.daughtersoftiresias.org/bearwiki/Main_Page
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It's just TELEVISION people!
So no one found this surprising? It surprised me. Lately, the majority of my TV watching is with the Discovery and History channel. I always thought these two channels were at least a little more credible than the others.
I could've sworn people were treating Bear like a god not long ago.

Uh, who treats Bear like a god? It doesn't surprise me at all.Falcon said:So no one found this surprising? It surprised me. Lately, the majority of my TV watching is with the Discovery and History channel. I always thought these two channels were at least a little more credible than the others.

C'mon now, do you really believe that reality tv is 100% real? Even if they didn't stage ONE thing, it is still in the hands of the editors to make an interesting show, and that might mean showing things in a certain way or omitting other things to make it entertaining.
