A true wilderness badass, Bear Grylls was injured on Friday while in Antartica.
The British adventurer fell and injured his shoulder while taking part in an expedition for Ethanol Ventures to promote the potential of alternative energies like bioethanol, Discovery said in a statement.
Grylls on Sunday was headed to the U.K. to get medical attention. The severity of the injury wasn't immediately released.
"Bear has a strong religious faith and a loving family to help speed his recovery," Discovery said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Bear as he makes the long trip back to the U.K."
Global Angels, an international charity that champions the needs of children. Grylls has supported the charity for the past few years.
Well, Wild may have won this round. But we'll have to see about the next. Oh, and Bear still has the coolest name, and wears the coolest pants on his adventures.
Survivorman is better.
ReplyDeleteI own a few of the clothes Bear wears on his trips. They are a bit pricey, but sure are great for camping. Real camping, none of that wussy car camping stuff.
ReplyDeleteGood thing Bear had his standard camera crew of a Nobel Prize winning brain surgeon, an astronaut, Chuck Norris, and Megatron.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, you know, he'd be out on his own and have to rough it.
