How is this 48 hours?


They go from afternoon on day 1, camp overnight, then exit in the afternoon of day 2... How is that 48 hours? Isn't that only 24 hours? Am I missing something?

24-48 hours.

It's a lot less wild than they make out to be anyways. There are always shots of the camera people ahead of them. The routes must be all planned out and traveled at least once over by Bear Grylls and the camera person. They probably set up scenes and shoot some prepared moments before moving on to another obstacle.

These trips can't be more than 18-24 hours, and an absolute maximum of 36 hours. Funny how they always repeat 48 hours, do they really expect people to be that bad at math when they only spend one night.

Survivorman with Les Stroud is the real deal; these Bear Grylls shows are difficult to take seriously.

It's not math to know that 48 hours is 2 days and 2 days requires at minimum 2 days or nights. That's simply life experience that everyone simply figures out. I get the tendency of the uneducated to think that anything with numbers is math though, so you're forgiven.

You are not forgiven for being that pedantic idiot no one likes.

"Survivorman"?

Sounds like a tv show. Tv shows use cameras. Camera work requires production. Survival is not a production. Therefore, it isn't real either.
