Hi! Just wanted to say how happy I am to hear about your 'moment' with Bear & that he remembered you, and appreciates your hard work; it's well-deserved! I've been following your blog for a long time, and it's stellar. Congrats!
Wow thanks alot. yeah it was a spectacular moment for me and ill never forget it. Thank You for following a being apart of Team BG!!
My sister had named me ‘bear’ as a baby, and I have no idea why. I certainly wasn’t hairy and rarely growled, but for some strange reason the name had stuck. I had hoped that by the mature age of seven and a half, I would have grown out of it; yet here on this frosty morning at the foot of Mount Everest, at the age of twenty-three, the nickname still remained. I shook my head and smiled.

Man, I could barely even read the first paragraph of your Bear Grylls meeting story. I'm just too jealous, you don't even know! I missed him when he was in Aus so now I just have to hope he's coming back soon!
he will definitely do another tour in Australia and you’ll get the chance, trust me :)
TONIGHT COULDN'T OF GOT ANY BETTER!!
after the show all the fans waited outside the venue including me.
15 minutes later, my friend spots Bear in the window. As soon as he said “There he is” all the fans started shouting “BEAR, BEAR!”. He looked straight at us and i raised my hand to say ‘Hi’. As soon as i started to wave, Bear pointed at me and said “I’ll be right with ya”. Obviously i thought he was talking to the crowd.
When he came out the backstage door, all the fans started to shout, take photo’s and getting him to sign things; I played it cool as i’ve previously met him before. When he got close to me i said “I need to shake your hand again” he started to shake whilst looking at me. When i thought all my dreams have been answered he then pointed at me again and said “Where do i recognise you from again?”.
I became a little speechless before saying “I’m the creator of the fansite that you posted on your twitter”, he began to smile and replied by saying “Yeah i saw you from the window and remembered you but wasn’t sure on how? hope your well buddy”. As in much shock as i was i started to have a small conversation with him whilst all these fans were surrounding me. I didn’t want to lurk around him as much because i didn’t want to make the crowd worst, so we began to go. Just after turning around Bear yes Bear Grylls said to me “Alright buddy take care , see you later”.
Bear actually remembered me from the time we met in March, he actually remembered me! and he even spent time on talking to me whilst all these fans was surrounding us. This night couldn’t of got any better. Bear Michael Grylls i cannot explain on how much i appreciate you remembering who i am and actually taking the time to talk to me once again.
He Knows Me, He Knows Who I Am and Remembers Me!
Thank You Bear

“I miss him still today: his long, whiskery eyebrows, his huge hands and hugs, his warmth, his prayers, his stories, but above all his shining example of how to live and how to die.”
