I really enjoy Ray Mears episodes. Very well put together. You learn alot from this guy, not just survival or bushcraft, but also about history. Cool Great Show. { Bush Craft }

Ray mears is just as good as Les I would say.

He's a bushcraft expert. For the past 20 years he's traveled the whole earth, every type of climate, teaching survival.

I have 3 of his works

- Bushcraft all season

- World of survival s 1-3

- Extreme Surival 1-3

Torrents, I made my own DVD off the files I got. you cant order ray mears stuff ebcause its in PAL formate when we need NTSC (I think thats what it is).

So yeah, I called them and they told me they would work onlyy on something like a PS2, but no dvd players unless they can play PAL.

So I just downloaded it all.

LOL!!!!

Do you remember when I posted links to those torrents a few years ago and suggested the same thing - that they weren't avialable in the NTSC but available via torrent?...lol - you and BB bashed me for it.... tsk. Yah, Good stuff. I'd gladly pay for the DVDs - they're great! I've sent emails to the Mears site requesting the same, never recieved a reply...


Haha, torrents are awesome, why not save money here and there? I wanted to buy his dvds but yeah he didnt have the proper formate, so I just downloaded em
