Never knew of a camera that can track people on it's own. There's got to be somebody manning it. If you believe Mike then I got a watch I want to sell you.

I stood at the exact same spot winter of 2008--2009 when I camped at Roosevelt October to April. Great place to winter. Snow up high and mild below. I know its difficult sometimes to get completely away from civilization but they tried. Cody is from Flagstaff and has been teaching survival up there for years. He knows his stuff, but I've never quite understood his shoeless thing. Good show nevertheless. I pick something up each episode.

How about an "intro?"

I thought it was called a "Bolo Knife"?........used to sell them on the back of Popular Mech mag, waaaay back when. (Used to buy a lot of surplus stuff from theat ad)

I'm wrong
Looked it up, seems the Bolo is slightly different shape.

2nd, Mrs. Hawke seems very knowledgeable at times, while very much the "dumb blonde" in others. she needs to "stay in character."

3rd, next week they're in a swamp; it looks to me like they're following Cody & Dave's exploits. The 'gator tail for supper was just on Dual Survival last week! Gutting & eating snake, the week before!

4th, I do like Mikes huge....Kukri! That sucker could do damage!

5th, I think Mike looks really weird when we see the shots of him from his helmet cam.

6th,I'd like to know what knife both Mrs. Hawke & Dave Canterbury are using! Details people, details!

While I like Dual Survival better, I'm glad that you like the show. At least it's getting an audience!

Yep, they've never implied that there isn't a camera crew with them. I don't mind that though, it's simply meant to give you some insight.

I think I can relate a lot with the wife. Things that bother her...bother me. It's nice to see her work through it. I'm actually excited to watch her progress through the series. I don't think she's playing a character at all, as this is the way a lot of women are. She wants to do what she has knowledge doing, and has a really hard time getting her self to do things she's not familiar with or frightened of.

I don't understand...so because a survivalist already ate a snake or a gator...they should avoid it? I'm kind of confused with that logic. Sometimes you eat what you can eat, and depending where you are, there are only so many options.

I love that knife too!

I made the same observation about the camera hat!! LOL!! It's kind of freaky, isn't it? LOL!!

The first knife was actually one that we have. It's a cold steel SRK.
Her second one was larger it looked like an SOG type of knife, but it had so little screen time we have no clue.

I can't stand Cody's hippy antics...I think that's why I'm not really that into that show.

Just sayin'...

Lol,My wife's first comment the first time we watched Man Woman Wild was that it was the same show as dual survival but they cast a real woman to play Cody!

I still like Dual survival a little better but enjoyed the show just the same.

Mike stated as they were walking out to hunt that the camera crew would be following them....from a distance. Next time you watch it you might want to have the volume on.

**Justin Case** · 07-24-2010, 03:05 PM

they were being filmed by a crew lots of times, Like when they were in the shelter and that animal came snooping, the shot showed them both looking through Her camera w/night vision,

**rwc1969** · 07-24-2010, 03:24 PM

I don't think they ever implied there wasn't a camera crew except for when he goes out solo hunting with the head cam, did they?

BTW, would anyone here have ate that snake with all the worms in it? Not me!

**crashdive123** · 07-24-2010, 03:42 PM

I'm pretty sure that the large blade he was using was a Cold Steel Kukri Machete. I think hers was a Cold Steel SRK. Not sure what his smaller blade was.

The jungle episode was the only one I watched.

If you've eaten pork, fish, or bear (and probably plenty of other meats) then you have also eaten worms. This is why they tell you to cook them all the way through.

I watch TV with headphones so as not to disturb others, however, since I'm not a big fan of the show I usually have the headphones off. So if there's a camera crew, where do they sleep? How do they stay safe at night? What do they eat, gator tail? Inquiring minds want to know!

Sometimes you eat what you can eat, and depending where you are, there are only so many options." My point on the food thing was that it's all following the same "formula" that Les, Bear, Cody, & Dave have done, and no, I don't care for the redundant plot lines. Several years ago I e-mailed Les Stroud & the Discovery Channel both on what I'd like to see...no response as of yet.

Yeah, But you dont have to look at them first,,,

He got her to drink his pee.

I love my wife but I would not drink her pee no matter what.

**Sarge47** · 08-21-2010, 12:22 AM

Then she got sick & he had to call for the Crew Medic! Then he watches her puke! I wonder why she got sick? Was it only from the heat. Even the Army Survival Manual warns NOT to drink urine, even if it's your own. That was just plain sick!
