MAN VS. WILD
New Survival Series Starring Bear Grylls Airs Fridays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to face death with only your inner strength, determination and base survival instincts to fall back on?

MAN VS. WILD follows mountaineer/explorer and former special forces soldier Bear Grylls as he relives the most epic stories of human survival.

This is no safe "piece-to-camera" series simply recounting the stories of other people's heroism — that is not Bear's style. Bear climbed Everest at the tender age of 23, the youngest person ever to do so. He's crossed frozen oceans and survived in the world's hottest deserts. Bear knows a thing or two about survival, so when it comes to explaining how other people pulled through against the odds, he wants to put himself in their position — to actually relive these mind-boggling real-life survival scenarios.

SURGERY SAVED MY LIFE
Airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Surgery Saved My Life presents powerful stories that follow a dramatic, life-saving operation in real time. These surgeries are either performed by medical pioneers or represent true surgical breakthroughs. Each story is told from the point of view of the patient and the doctor. What's it like to be told you have only weeks or months to live? What's it like to discover there may be only one person who can help you? Behind each operation is a story of minor triumphs and failures of medical science in a journey toward a life-changing human experience.
