But yeah, Bear Grylls is this survivalist, former, like, UK Marine guy.
And he's a great TV host.
And it's called Running Wild, I think, is the show.
And yeah, we went out into the Utah wilderness.
But the scariest thing about doing it was...
he strapped me to a helicopter.
So when I got picked up by the helicopter, I had to ride on the skids on the outside of the helicopter and I was chained.
And we were zooming 100, 200 feet over the trees at like 50 miles an hour.
And I have a fear of heights and it was brutal.
But worse than that, when I got picked up at the end of it,
They lowered a winch with a cable and then they dragged me up into the air.
So I was dangling by a hundred feet under a helicopter and then it took off over the mountains.
It goes beyond terror where you're just like, OK, I guess I'm going to die and there's not really anything I can do.
I mean, this is how I go out.
And you're just flying around and you're just going one breath at a time.
And it was absolutely brutal.
But we did that made the cliff climbing and I ate rot grubs.
