With so many new faces here a question often asked

In terms of knowledge, real skills and the ability to teach it has to be Ray Mears, none of the others come close to him. I enjoy watching the old Les Hiddins programmes and Les stroud is an enjoyable view.

Ed Stafford is OK but I'm not sure he is actually a 'Survival Expert' as he does not really demonstrate a great depth of knowledge/techniques but is entertaining to watch.

This is what started Ray off in the media, boy, he looks young LOL



 
Can't believe Bear hasn't had a mention.....

To be honest there's been a fair few names I haven't heard of but I'm a fan of Ray Mears.
 
Ray is an all time great. I would have picked ray but I like and respect the way David Canterbury lives...so he tops my charts 👍
 
Dave is OK but he's another that demonstrates no real depth of skills.

I recently watched Duel Survivor and it was fun but Dave seems a bit panicky for someone with all his special forces background;) No loved lost between him and the blonde pony tailed 'expert' AKA Cody Lundin

Corned beef, Marmite and tom sandwiches, bottle of cheeky red :) and as I've pretty much got all the bushcraft shows on the home network I feel Les Hiddins calling me this afternoon :)
 
Yep, watched a lot of those, I think one of the better ones was the island in the South Seas, 30 days ish iirc



Watched that a few times.... one of my favourites ..great skills and entertaining to boot... hope he makes another one just like it
 
I can't take to the boy, seems a bit of a self absorbed attention seeker. Wasn't there a story about him getting nabbed staying in a hotel but him saying he was in the wilds ????




yup he lied and got caught 😂 silly bugger...... but who hasn’t lol
