“That's why I really didn't want this series to be made to look heroic, and it hasn't been. There's more depth to it than that, and I don't look heroic at all.”
“But you're in a different arena out there, and you do what you have to do. Sometimes it's you or the snake. None of the animals suffer. I show the most humane way of killing them - like with the fish, you bite straight through the backbone and it dies instantly. Similarly, with a snake, I grab it by the tail and swing it over my head, and it looks pretty brutal but actually it's instantaneous. In one programme I kill a big wild rabbit using a throwing stick, and I knocked it straight out and broke its neck.”
“I think one of the nice things about the series is that it's very human, it's very real, and it's not always perfect.”
These are all pre controversy obviously. There haven’t been many downright silly bearisms since.

From the newest commercial, Bear sings: "I love a-rack-a-nids" in a soothing, low voice...we all know he's gonna bite the head off that little 'bugga'!...Nevermind! It's a GIANT tarantula, full of nastiness (and venom?). Man, you are EXTREME!!!!

My favorite Bear quotes:
Bear came across a tiny beautiful flower hanging in the jungle canopy and remarked that it was a morale boost and how probably no one would ever see it. He called it, "an example of God's extravagance." AWESOME
Another favorite quote was his review of a snail he'd just eaten: "That tasted like a cold, wet, bogey." LOL
And finally... "I could murder a cheesecake right about now..."
I can't wait to see what it is in the Season 4 promo that Bear and the native are jumping out of the hole from. HILARIOUS!!!

From the newest commerical for this season: "It's scary, but fun!"
From other episodes: "It's really like God's church out here." "It's simply glorious."

I like when he describes things as "Not ideal." It's usually a huge understatement!

From the Nambia episode, when Bear was told to go in after the porcupine, and drag it out by it's feet. Bear replied "You have got to be having yourself a laugh."
