Very very true mate.

I've done stuff in tropical climates like that, and even then it's emotionally hard…and you're in paradise. There really is nothing that can prepare you for the total head f**k that is actually being there. I laughed when the first guy tapped out, but having said that, being 30 metres from a bear cave…honestly, how would you react? After a couple of seconds thinking about it, I realised…fair play. Seeing it on TV makes it easy to say "I'd be fine there", but I bet that's what he said, and he freaked.

Imagine actually being hunted by a 1000lb beast that could disembowel you with a swipe! Or maybe not hunted, maybe just…no longer the highest up the food chain. Here in the UK, we don't have predators. We are the hunters. But would you walk into a bear enclosure at the zoo? Of course not. Bears are dangerous! So why would this be any different?

As you said BB, it's easy saying what to do, but actually being there…not so easy at all. Fair play to all of them for giving it a go.
