DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's press release, November 2013) Survival expert and outdoor adventurer Bear Grylls returns to Discovery Channel in the all-new series BEAR GRYLLS: ESCAPE FROM HELL. The six-part series will kick off with a special premiere at 10PM ET/PT on November 11 before moving to its regular time slot of Wednesdays at 10PM/ET starting November 13. In BEAR GRYLLS: ESCAPE FROM HELL, Bear takes his survival expertise one step further as he reveals the incredible stories of ordinary people stranded in devastatingly dire situations. Coupled with archival footage and interviews with the survivors, Bear will pit himself against the very same dangers and scenarios. He will re-live their journeys through first-hand experience, and show viewers how to survive in some of the world's most desolate landscapes. "I am super excited to be working with Discovery again - the channel where the MAN VS. WILD journey began," said Bear Grylls. "BEAR GRYLLS: ESCAPE FROM HELL, and any future endeavors, will be intense - but that's where the fun is! MAN VS. WILD took me to some of the toughest climates and terrains out there, and this new series is an exciting evolution of that. The aim is to follow incredible real-life survival stories and demonstrate dynamic life-saving know-how along the way." |
