Anyone used anything Bear has taught them?

I did. I was driving on I-10 around 11:00 at night and thought 'What would Bear do?'

So pulled over and checked into a Motel-6.

Sometimes! I think this should be called an adventure show though instead of a survival show, because a lot of that stuff you wouldnt wanna do in a survival situation!

I thought the show already implied that this was "worse case scenario." Obviously if you are just strolling through the woods you won't be using that advice, HOWEVER if you are lost for weeks you might use this information. If stupid people would just pay attention...

I just trekked 30 kilometers in 12 hours through the mountain, with night walks, no lights and no moon (just the star lights).

I used his advices on using peripheral vision for night walks, as it is much sharper than direct vision at night. It works.

I also used his advice for going downhill on steep and full or slippery rocks. It also worked. I used his technique to use burned plants and shelter building to sleep isolated from mosquitos and cold at night. It worked too.

His advices are mostly sound.
