hmmmm didnt think of it like that as its a insect but whatever. Its opinions really as i would think it is cruel to eat a snake dead or alive, even if it was bred for food, while i dont think it is cruel to eat a scorp.

We are human, its a scorp :S cant really compare? so surely if you ahd to choose which would live 1000 scorps or 1 friend....which would you choose? i will stop talking cause ill go of topic and chat rubbish

I would eat it for £100 defo. The End.

I wouldnt unless it was life or death.

Bear Gryls is a cock and i think Ray Mears should stalk him, catch him in a spiked man trap and eat his eyes like jawbreaker gob stoppers. Tasty.

Eh no i don't think i would! Poor thing, he could at least kill it first. I've seen him do it with snakes and lizards and he does the same with them he's a dirty skank! Wish scorp had stung him. Whenever i watch him i hope for him to be bitten or stung or fall off a cliff but it never happens.

He be hesistant to eat it at first, but i say no, for not killing it first, twaz cruel to cut of its sting when it was still alive, and twaz cruel to then eat it and compare it to 3 week old cheese.

Some mixed views on this.

I agree that it was needless of this (well known?) chap to do that, it is playing to the camera a little, however, is it any worse than eating a chicken that has been battery farmed, or the many other things that we engage in daily, which involve some sort of suffering, without need..?
