Can modern man cut it?

 

 

 

Chris Barrow of 7connections is one of 13 British men to take part in a unique social experiment run by Bear Grylls and Channel 4.

 

Stripped of all every day creature comforts, the participants are put to the test to see if they have the resourcefulness and the instinct to survive in an incredibly unforgiving environment.

 

Bear Grylls challenges them to come together, build a community and find the kindness that he thinks is essential for small groups to not just survive, but to thrive, even in the harshest of conditions.

 

This experience will be life-changing; can modern man still cut it in the wild?
