Nonsense: A Hero In Question

When my father told me over the phone that one of my favorite TV shows, Man VS. Wild, is staged/fake; I did not believe him.

Bear Grylls, the host of the show, is one of my most beloved heroes. He would never stage/fake his accomplishments.

After conducting some brief research I found an article from The NY Post and another article from BBC News regarding this topic. The information found in both of these articles supports this staging/faking claim.

This news is all very disturbing to me.

My Bear Grylls inspirational poster has been taken off of my wall and he is no longer listed as one of my heroes on my Myspace.com profile.

Hero work has been left to Frank Bainimarama and Merlin the fish.
