Have you met Bear? He's my new TV boyfriend. I usually don't have TV boyfriends. I usually go for more of the rock n roll type (still love you Eddie) or the movie star type (JD+JD=Tru Lov) - (though it's true that Johnny spent some time on TV too) But lately I've had a thing going for Bear.
Bear Grylls is the star and host of Man vs. Wild. He's an adventurer that gets dropped into remote locations and then demonstrates how one would survive to find civilization if one was stranded. He eats and drinks very disgusting things, and I once saw him pee on his own shirt- but yet I can't look away. It's fascinating! He is such a bad ass. I could never even attempt half the things he does in every episode. He can climb up rock cliffs and waterfalls bare handed. He can build rafts. He knows which plants are ok to eat. He can start a fire anywhere. (Doesn't it kind of look like he is about to kiss me in this picture? I mean, if I was the fire?)
He looks great without his shirt on and um...
um...
where was I?
Oh yeah. He broke a record to be the youngest Brit to summit Mt. Everest (at 24) AFTER he had previously broken his back in 3 places while parachuting.
Did I mention he is a Brit? Lovely accent while he's telling you how to tell if it's a fresh killed Zebra. (say "Zeh -bra", not "Zee-bra"). He's a former SAS for the British Army and he has a black belt in karate. Oh and he lives in a converted barge on the Thames. *sigh*
Yeah, I know he's married so I probably shouldn't get too involved, but we have a standing date every tuesday. And I mean come on, his name is BEAR!

Those photos are amazingly... umm, yeah. I've seen the show and I totally support your relationship. Especially after looking at that bottom photo. Who knew survivalists could be so hot.
My TV boyfriend is married, too, AKJ. It's probably better that way. Sigh.
Never seen the show...yet.
But I gotta say, "Mmmmm...rugged!"
:)
He looks very yummy in the photos, but I suspect that for too much of his existence I wouldn't want to get too close or be standing downwind. He's all yours, AKJ!
Hottie McHotterson.....yum....
