These are scenes which were supposedly along a route from Pu'u O'o to the Pacific Ocean in the Kilauea episode of Man vs Wild. Except for the landing site, they were, in fact, a few feet from various roads and highways used by thousands of tourists daily. Update: The original concept was that Bear Grylls would be dropped into remote areas and make his way to civilization with no help. The Discovery Channel removed this episode and several others from circulation after they were shown to be fake. Other early episodes were heavily edited to remove fake scenes, and new voice-overs were used to disclose that he received help from the crew including the building of shelters and the supplying of animals. Disclaimers on recent episodes disclose that scenes are staged. http://volcanochaser.smugmug.com/Nature/Man-vs-Wild/Lava-Bridge-1/343854944_oJuta-Ti.jpg http://volcanochaser.smugmug.com/gallery/3444749_tfamk/ 2009-08-30T09:08:04Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
