Kinetic Content, a Red Arrow Studios company, has been commissioned by Discovery to produce a major new unscripted series, called “Man vs. Bear”. This all-new competition series pitting humans against powerful Grizzlies premieres on Wednesday, December 4 on Discovery.
For thousands of years, Grizzly Bears have stood at the top of the evolutionary food chain with unchallenged dominance. Now for the first time ever, humans will be entering the bears' territory and take them on in a competition like never attempted.
Each week, three Grizzlies - Bart, Honey Bump and Tank - will take on three new human competitors at their Utah sanctuary to test the limits of strength, speed and stamina. All challenges will be based on the bears' natural instincts as well as predatory skills and actions - whether it's engaging in a monumental game of "tug of war" or using brute force to roll giant logs.
In addition to watching the series on Discovery, viewers can stream new episodes each week on the Discovery GO app. Viewers can also get to know the bears and discover more about their lives on Bear Mountain. And while learning more about these fiercely talented grizzlies, viewers are encouraged to find out which bear matches their own personality with an interactive quiz. People can also join the conversation on social media by using the hashtag #ManVsBear.
“Man vs. Bear” is produced for Discovery Channel by Kinetic Content, a Red Arrow Studios company, with Chris Coelen, Eric Detwiler, Vincent Cariati, Steve Kaufman, Paul Lima and Karrie Wolfe as executive producers. For Discovery Channel, Joseph Boyle and Bill Howard are executive producers and Jessica Mollo is associate producer.
