the camera crew never helps him, he is good about that, but the dumbass american, "claims" to be all alone, only they show him running down a hill, one camera directly in front of him, and then cut to side shots of him running down, and low and behold, NO camera in front!!! not to mention there is no way that dumbass goes half way down the quarter mile hill, plants a camera for a side view, climbs back up, runs down for that shot, then climbs back up, retrieves the camera, and runs down again with it in front, i have seen this sooooo many times in every one of his crap episodes, they are so obvious and corny you can't help but notice there is no way he films it all himself, like when he walks around 3 different lakes trying to escape by a road that he already knows about because he looked at maps(admittedly!!!) but every time there is a shot of him walking around the entire side of the lake from the other side, as if he sets a camera down, walkes around the lake for a shot, then goes back and gets it, it's obvious that he could only carry 2 or 3 small cameras with him so these shots are also impossible unless it's staged, his figure 4 traps are pathetic, as well as his snares, there is no way in hell they would catch anything with them, but somehow he always manages to catch something "magicly"
don't even get me started on the time he found maa huaang and made ephedrine tea, how is increasing your metabolism and caaawing like a crow going to help anything??? the faster your metabolism runs in a survivul situation, the faster you starve, simple logic, he is a dumbass.
