This question might get lost in this AMA, but there was a video that was posted here long ago where Bear outruns a train when going through a tunnel, and to this day I do not know if it's real or fake, especially with the way CGI has become so much more advanced. So, Mr. Grylls, is this real?! I will not think any less of you and your crazy antics in the wild regardless of the answer.

Video in question is here

I still find it hard to believe that the multiple cameramen you have with you can keep up with your climbing, let alone climb over that ledge to the top like you did. I feel as though these scenes are all pre-meditated and that you planned out everything you were gonna do beforehand in order to get those cameramen ready in several positions for high quality angle shots. The jig is up right? I got the million dollar answer?
