i read the abridged version many times as a kid, so i thought it was past time to read the original book. it was interesting to discover new things that weren’t in the abridged version. it reawakened my interest in the 1996 mount everest disaster.

In this memoir Bear tells the story of his life and death-defying adventures. It turns out that not only he a tough guy in mind and body, but he also has a sensitive side and a heart. A fun read if you are a Man vs Wild fan. My only criticism is that he spends a little too much time on the details of his SAS training and Everest adventure--don't get me wrong, they are both riveting and amazing stories but it got a little repetitive after a while.
He also confesses his real first name and mentions how he became "Bear."

Bear Grylls: Mud, Sweat, and Tears.
This book was very surprising and well written. Some of the things that Bear had done before turning twenty five is amazing. The suspense was well built upon, and his ideas flowed well together. He seemed to keep everything pretty straight forward and from the heart, and with books about yourself it's nice to get the inside mind, and not just the normal things we see in the world of show business. 5/5

Very enjoyable read. The coverage of Everest was especially enthralling.
