John Carver Show - Bear Grylls - Sitting Down with Piers Morgan

I've been a HUGE fan of Bear Grylls for several years.  I've read his book "Mud, Sweat and Tears."  He's a genuine guy and this interview, with Piers Morgan, allows you to see behind the scenes and into his heart.  

Piers commented: “You know its funny, people always say to me, ‘Oh I know you make people cry on the show’, and I always say it would be extraordinary to me if people didn’t get emotional at precise moments like this. You know, this was a father that you absolutely worshipped and loved and he did you, and to see those pictures, it must be emotional. I don’t think there’s anything surprising about you reacting like this.”

Bear continued to add that his sister was correct in saying that “you kind of definitely bottle stuff and a put a lid on it”, before needing to pause the interview.

He continued: “Yes it’s just very raw. I think it’s raw. The one [image] that killed me, is seeing him with me you know in the little boat and stuff because I do that with my three boys and it’s funny because they look so like him and so like I did at that age, and it’s exactly what I do with them and I just know he would be so, he’d love that with them.”

“He just really encouraged me to love something and when he saw that I loved to climb, to do that with him, he really encouraged that. That’s why that Everest dream became such a dream of ours together. He got me a poster of it and I’d go one day I’m going to climb this mountain. It was a real shared dream.”
