Jake Gyllenhaal
and
Bear Grylls
Will Be
Men vs. Wild
06/20/2011
Jake Gyllenhaal will share an Icelandic snow cave with Bear Grylls on the premiere episode of this season's Man vs. Wild :
For two days, Bear and Jake embark on a survival experience neither will forget, to an Icelandic landscape dominated by mountains, huge glaciers and some of Europe's most active volcanoes. Jake will have to go where Bear goes, eat whatever Bear eats, and on occasion even take the lead, if he's going to cope with some of the worst conditions known to man. "For me, it's all about discovery," said Gyllenhaal.
Said Bear about the experience, "The wild is always very revealing - not only physically but mentally. You've got to smile when it's driving horizontal hail and be able to face your fears and just get on and do it -- and on both of those accounts, Jake came up strong."
The Belfast Telegraph adds:
Bear revealed: "A couple of weeks ago I took Jake Gyllenhaal, reportedly the fittest man in Hollywood, on a Born Survivor to Iceland. He said he wanted to to be pushed and afterwards said he'd never been pushed so hard.
He went on: "We had crazy conditions - sleeping in snow caves, huge river crossings and these torrential storms. I was a little bit nervous as I promised Jake's management team I would keep him alive, but he was brilliant.
"There's something magical about the raw emotion of fear and nerves. I think that's what people like about the show."
Given the methods available to stay warm in such situations, it should be a glorious episode.
The show premieres on July 11.

Jake Gyllenhaal has plenty of onscreen experience bunking (and bonding) with another man in harsh outdoor conditions, so his stint on the season premiere of Man vs. Wild should be a snap, right? For the July 11 episode, Gyllenhaal spent two days in remote Iceland with host Bear Grylls, who promises, "We had crazy conditions — sleeping in snow caves, huge river crossings and these torrential storms. I was a little bit nervous as I promised Jake's management team I would keep him alive, but he was brilliant." Discovery also claims that Gyllenhaal had "to go where Bear goes [and] eat whatever Bear eats," so if you're tuning in just for the survival-sharpened homoeroticism, you'd best steel yourself for another stomach-churning, flesh-chomping montage .
(How about Elk?? ::) ::) )

I´ve heard rumors that this was going on. This is def. a wet dream coming true. And so very Jake as I´m sure he loved this
Monika:
Jake Gyllenhaal has a fear of heights.
So perhaps climbing an icy mountain in Iceland wasn't the best idea. Climbing an icy mountain in front of a camera? Definitely not the best idea.
Gyllenhaal guests in the season premiere of "Man vs. Wild," taking to the harsh, rocky outskirts of Iceland alongside insane adventurer host, Bear Grylls. In this first clip, the "Source Code" star reveals his fear of heights -- and the unfortunate, nerve-induced positioning of his manhood.
The episode premieres on July 11th on 9/8c on Discovery.

Yay! I get to watch it tonight!
I like his "I have a fear of heights". I can just imagine Bear replying, "One helluva time to tell me..." :laugh:
