Leading our journey through the Big Apple is Tom Trudeau as Bear Grylls. The real Bear Grylls is known to have a screw or two loose on screen, and Trudeau does a wonderful job of capturing the eccentricity of the character as he travels around town. Tom's spot on accent, witty humor and good looks propel this video to a rating of six stars (and that is on a scale of 1 to 5 stars).

While Trudeau's character may have stolen the show, the writing itself should have some recognition of its own. Videos exceeding three of four minutes often have difficult succeeding because it is difficult to keep an audience consistently laughing in excess of two minutes. The writers at SOP, however, keep us laughing for the entire five minutes with witty one-liners. I expect this video to garner many more views, and can help SOP achieve YouTube fame.

Bear Grylls is well known for his death defying antics and his unique accent on the hit adventure series "Man vs. Wild." Thus, it is only fitting that YouTubers across the nation offer their own humorous take on Mr. Grylls. The crew at Stay On Punishment (more commonly known as SOP) assumes the identity of Bear Grylls and takes us on a successfully satirical journey through America's favorite city.

As a fellow Englishman of Bear, I was sceptical about this video to begin with... the accent was terrible, it was a spot-on Australian accent! However you really captured the vibe and expressions of Bear himself and I found this video HILARIOUS! Well done for making it. 5*

I am an American, and I totally agree. It's pathetic, but I'm not one of them.
