Bear Eats Zebra, Takes Over the Discovery Channel

The best new show on TV features, yes, a man who eats animal feces. His name is Bear Grylls and his show Man vs. Wild is on the Discovery Channel pretty much all the time. DSC is trying to one-up a Steve Irwin-less Animal Planet with Grylls (his friends call him Beary -- har har) who, in each episode, is dropped into some new-fangled extreme wilderness condition with nothing but a pocket knife, a flint, and (you guessed it) a camera crew, and is forced to survive in order that we be entertained.

So far I have watched Bear eat a lamb's eyeball that he cooked in a lava-heated mud pool, catch some kind of Icelandic pigeon, snap its head off with his hands, and then peel away its skin and feathers before remarking on "all the dark meat" and eat it, and slide down a glacier on his ass while jabbing a broken ski pole into the ice to slow down his precarious descent. Not in that particular order.

Anyway, here is a video of Bear catching and eating a live snake. Thank god this show exists.

And below, Bindi Irwin eulogizes "Daddy" while wearing a Madonna-style microphone head-set. This girl is going places, people.
