If you're thinking 'No Angels' it's not the same, they made a documentary about that one i think. The Cop was Jay Dobbyn.
'Under and Alone' infiltrated the Mongols and was dated earlier so not that one either.
Saying that I'm only on episode 2

That shit was intense.
Watched Danny Collins last night, I now hate Al Pacino... if it wasn't for me expecting something memorable to tumble out of his mouth, I wouldn't have watched this pos fanny flick to the end. Harry will like it as it's very much a nail biting popcorn movie with added Kleenex moments. It was so sweet I nearly puked.
I'm not going to add a a link, because I don't want to take the blame.
^Yep.
Another slasher, but this time set in Thailand.
Haven't watched it yet though.

10 wannabe tough guys go full retard in the wilds of Vancouver, last man out wins $500,000

Good viewing ;)Quote:
Alone is the country's boldest and longest survival experiment ever captured for television. It places ten hardcore survivalists alone in the Vancouver Island wilderness - no camera crew, no teams, no producers - on a single mission to stay alive. At stake is $500,000 awarded to the person who can last the longest. They will face extreme isolation and psychological distress as they plunge into the unknown, self-documenting their experience.
^ Love those survival shows, e.g., Bear Grylls. Comparable, better, worse? Some of those guys really know their shit.
Don't think they're in the same league as Grylls or Mears, though most seem to know their stuff. One guy quit after the first night, tough guy cop had a breakdown after bears were sniffing around his tent. tbh he was out of his depth and looked like he was going to cry as soon as the boat dropped him off. Apparently there's thousands of bears, wolves and cougars in the woods with them and yes they were quite a few bears seen on camera... some guys have clearly been dropped off in better spots than others, you know you're in for a rough night when your spot is covered in fish heads and bear shit :D
I started watching this thinking I could make a go of it. That lasted about 4 minutes until the guy came across the bear den and bears.
The fat guy seemed quite unfathomed by it all but that situation he was in near the end was probably scarier than The Blair Witch Project on acid.
Good Shout.
^ haha yeah there was that one guy that looked totally fazed and on the verge of crying, he hadn't made any attempt at a shelter and was just standing there glass eyed and scared...
You can't even climb a tree and tie yourself in for the night, there's bears in them thar trees.!!
Load of fake shit.
No-one ever asks how a full production crew finds it so easy to trail them around.

Channel was accused of fakery last night after it emerged producers set up a water supply and let loose two crocodiles on survival show The Island with Bear Grylls.
It has also emerged that four of the “13 ordinary men” marooned for a month were TV [at]professionals with experience of extreme conditions and at least two had worked with Grylls before.
In last week’s opening episode, the dehydrated camp-mates came close to despair as time ran out to find a source of fresh drinking water.
When they eventually found it, viewers were not told that the murky supply was actually a rubber-lined pool put there by the production crew.
...
The fakery row is the second to engulf Grylls, 39, who apologised to viewers in 2008 after it emerged that he stayed in a hotel rather than in the wild during filming for Channel 4’s Born Survivor.
Brutal mate, I've never felt so delighted for person I don't know on the telly as I did when that dude lit a fire. Then the wolves start howling and I'm thinking - fucking hell put that shit out and hide.
Where would you hide?
You wanna roll around in some cougar shit
I reckon I'd build a raft or something that floats. Become a fisherman. Too easy.
Reckon I'd try and get up in the trees and make a shelter, got to be better than being on the ground at night and easier to defend... I mean if the bears are sleeping in the trees there must be a good reason for it.
I'm wondering how long until one of them resorts to eating the fish heads left by the bears...?
Fish head soup..? You could survive on that I'm sure.
And by the girls of Isaan :yumyum:
Maybe it's not a bear's den after all. Man, he's in more trouble than he thought.
Yeah, that's human nature: greed/lying/cheating. Bear knows his survival skills, though, having been in the British Special Air Service (SAS). It freaks me out (in a good way) every time he jumps out of 'copter or plane, does a somersault or roll and maybe he pulls a rip cord or not, when he just jumps into water. And he gets really educated, specific to each unique environment, as to where the edible plants and animals are vs. the poisonous variety.Quote:

When I was getting a TEFL, I spent 5-6 weeks outside of Singburi, in the jungle along the river. I was making friends with this alpha male about the size of a husky. I had no idea that we can be simply meat or the best friend in the world. I was playing with this dog and just for a second or two lost sight of him. All of a sudden, he shocked the hell out of me by jumping up, balancing perfectly on his hind legs. You know he was as tall as me then? But what he did was chest bump me, almost knocking me down. :rofl:Quote:

I'm about your size, 555. OMG, I read this on the husky-owners forum (what age are they fully grown - Siberian Husky questions - Husky Owners - The Siberian Husky Forum):Quote:
Male dogs are (physically) fully-grown at two years of age. When they reach the age of two they can't grow any more bigger or taller. But if you're talking about mental maturity then you must wait for a loong loong time for your cute male husky to actually stop behaving like a puppy LOL
