Adventurer who wanted to live like Bear Grylls in Scottish wilderness found dead
"A man found dead in a remote mountain hut was an adventurer who had planned a year-long Bear Grylls-style survival challenge in the Scottish wilderness.

David Austin, 29, from Derby, was found dead in a 'bothy' by a track worker near Corrour, a remote railway station in Highland Perthshire, on December 31 at 9.50am."
...
"Survival school instructor Ian Moran, who teaches extreme survival and bushcraft skills, said it was extremely unlikely anybody could survive a Highland winter out of doors living off the land."

Re: Adventurer who wanted to live like Bear Grylls in Scottish wilderness found dead
he died of hypothermia inside a little cabin (bothy)

if he wanted to be like Bear Grylls, he should have learned how to start a damn fire.

Re: Adventurer who wanted to live like Bear Grylls in Scottish wilderness found dead
ok, i actually read the article(something i should do every time obviously).. and there is nothing about the guy "wanting to live like Bear Grylls"

the only reason Bear Grylls is invloved in this article at all is because the Daily Mail needed an angle to add to the story to make it about someone people give a crap about.

"non-famous man dies in wilderness" doesnt have the same appeal you see?

sadly, by adding this angle, they have made the man out to be a fool, when he apparently took several years to prepare for this, and we still have no idea how he actually died.

and blaming Bear Grylls for his death is so far off the mark its laughable.


yes.. actually reading the article.. thats the way to go i think.

If he wanted to be like Bear Grylls he should of had a camera crew with him and planned out all of his "stunts" in advance. Then after the cameras were off, go find the nicest hotel in the area.

 Quoting: Sharty Mc Bean


yeah, which leads me to believe foul play, or maybe suicide?

he wouldn't have died of thirst, and if he didn't have the means, or didn't know how to start a fire, well, he's only himself to blame.

this is a very fishy story tbh.

LOL - you need to do some research then.

He actually thought Grylls stayed out once the cameras went off?
