Bear Grylls Will Never Give Up

A dozen years after the cheeky Briton exploded onto American television, the king of survival entertainment is charging harder than ever.

Apparently nobody told Bear Grylls that reality TV stars never have long careers. A dozen years after the cheeky Briton exploded onto American television, the king of survival entertainment is charging harder than ever, guiding A-listers into the wild for his NBC show聽Running Wild with Bear Grylls聽and launching innovative new series for Facebook and Netflix. He鈥檚 also building an adventure theme park in England and hosting a new survival race this spring outside Los Angeles that鈥檚 open to anyone. 国产吃瓜黑料 executive editor Michael Roberts, who鈥檚 been covering Grylls for over a decade, tracked down the enduring icon on location in the Sierra Nevada聽to ask him: What鈥檚 your secret for survival? And why are you so convinced that going through tough times is good for all of us?
