Why cant you watch it? Its on OLN all the time, or is it not shown in the states?
In a lot of ways Ray Mears is a way better show than SUrvivorman but its hard to compare them because they are 2 very differnt shows.

Guess I'm a little young to know some of these things. As long as I know survival from somewhere I'm ok.

Ah that sucks, i've learned a lot from him.
les shows us some basic methods in surviving but he dosnt have the time to go in debth, and he dosent have a writing staff to do reasearch.
Ray Mears has some really neat skills he shows you, you can make more thank is imaginable with some basic plants and trees.

I have crappy cable anyway, so even if it was available here I wouldn't have it, but no we can't get it here.
If I had DSL, I could watch his videos, but alas, I don't have that either. 
Oh well....
