Man vs. Wild
荒野求生

Man vs. Wild , also called Born Survivor: Bear Grylls , or Ultimate Survival , is a survival television series hosted by Bear Grylls on the Discovery Channel. In a special first aired on 2 June 2009, Will Ferrell joined Grylls on a survival trip to Northern Sweden. In March 2012, Discovery Channel terminated its contract with Grylls due to contract disputes, effectively canceling the series.
《荒野求生》,也称《贝尔·格里尔斯——天生幸存家》或《终极幸存》,是一档由贝尔·格里尔斯主持的野外生存电视节目,在探索频道播出。在2009年6月2日播出的特辑中,威尔·费雷尔加入格里尔斯,来到瑞典北部参加野外生存项目。2012年3月,探索频道与格里尔斯因为合同纠纷终止合作,也导致了该系列节目的停播。

The general format of each episode is the premise that Grylls is left stranded in a region with his film crew. The episode documents his efforts to survive and find a way back to civilization, usually requiring an overnight shelter of some kind. Mostly there are wild terrains — jungles, forests or similar non-urban areas. Grylls also tells about successful and failed survivals in the particular area which he is in. Based on the specific terrain he is dropped, it is commonly seen in this program that how Grylls survived from a quicksand in a desert in Utah, how he crossed a rushing river in Costa Rican, how he built a snow shelter along Alps mountains and how he shot a fish with spear on Hawaii beaches.
在每一集节目的开头,格里尔斯和摄影团队被扔在一个特定的环境下。摄影机记录下他如何努力求生并设法回到文明世界的过程,其间大多需要节目组提供野外过夜的避身设备。这些求生的地方通常是荒山野岭、热带丛林、原始森林等其他远离城市的地方。每一集中格里尔斯还会分享每个求生险境后的成功和失败经验。他因地制宜地示范各种求生方法,包括从犹他州沙漠的流沙中脱身、在哥斯达黎加穿越湍急的河流、在阿尔卑斯山搭建雪屋,以及在夏威夷用渔叉捕鱼。

Each episode takes about 7-10 days to shoot. Before each show the crew does about a week of reconnaissance, followed by Grylls doing a flyover of the terrain. Grylls then undergoes two days of intensive survival briefings.
每一集需要7—10天的录制时间。节目录制以前,工作人员会用一周时间做前期地形勘察,并由格里尔斯驾驶飞机做空中侦察工作。接下来格里尔斯将用两天的时间集中了解求生情况概要。
