Men vs Wild (2009) Will Ferrell and Bear Grylls


If you went up to my face and told me that Bear Grylls was going out into the wilderness with Will Ferrell, I would say you're full of shit. That's not even remotely possible. Yet, it has come to this.

They start off on some frozen mountain where Ferrell starts the trip with lots of complaining. Bear Grylls has done this dozens of times so this episode is just a routine for him. As the journey progresses, Ferrell's jokes are noticeably less flamboyant and more fatigued, more angry at his inferiority in this environment, which I think might be a part of his comic persona. Overall, this duo interp has been a chance for Bear Grylls to expand his acting repertoir and maybe defend his survivalist reputation. Wait, what the fuck is Will Ferrell doing here again?

Next on Man vs Wild: Bear Grylls with Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan in the African Savanna.
Rating: is Awesome.
