Watched some episodes of this. Some of the people are stunned. Anyway, have they ever had a pair of ultra runners on the show who right off the bat ditch their gear and just tear up the distance?

I've watched a few episodes. Some of it is just so bad, but it's highly entertaining. Though there was one with this woman who wouldn't stop whimpering/crying .. I was hoping she'd fall into a ditch at some point and be done with it.

I've only watched the show a couple of times. Is it against the rules to steal their horses?
Well I'm not sure but they tend to stay attached to them so i think it is against the rules to get into a physical confrontation with mantracker.

Great show.

I would advise the producers to change the format of the show as ManTracker is not allowed to capture his prey on Day 1. If he did, no way they could fill the hour segment. Takes much of the suspens out of the show.

So lets focus the first 30-minutes on the 2-man team and the 2nd half on ManTracker hunting em down.

I don't know, seems like the few shows I've seen have been pretty confrontational. Of course, false drama is the bread and butter of shows like these. I just wondered because, it would be my move. There are a lot of plants that don't agree with horses that could be added to their feed bags. I wouldn't hurt a horse for a game show but, I'm just sayin'. I think these shows depend on untrained people as runners. The tracker and sidekick aren't anything special.

I think if this show is truly unscripted, then the cameramen on each team probably give that team away at least, I dunno 25% of the time.

The show is fake. Let's face it, how is the camera crew following them without leaving obvious tracks, or running behind them the whole time with all the equipment.

I think the show is baloney.

I assume the camera men are fit and/or get swapped out perhaps at night? I also assume that at night there is a "no movement" time, otherwise if I were them I'd just hit the trail at night while man tracker is snoring away.

Are we sure that he isn't allowed to get them during the first day?

I assume there is some rigging to the show. Until I _know_ it is like man vs wild, I can still find something to watch.
