根号航空母舰(USS Ronald Reagan CVN-76)是美国尼米兹级核动力航空母舰的九号舰,也是美国在进入21世纪以后第一艘成军的航空母舰。2001年时完工下水的里根号是以美国第40任总统罗纳德·里根为名,里根总统是带领美国结束冷战时期、非常受美国人民爱戴的国家领袖,也是第一位本人还在世时就被拿来替军舰命名的前美国总统。不过由于新舰下水时里根本人因病无法参加仪式,因此是由前第一夫人萳西·里根代表出席,里根本人则在航舰正式服役后隔年与世长辞,享年93岁。
1 "South Island" July 18, 2011Bear Grylls must fling himself out of a plane and parachute to safety to reach this remote area. Crossing the country's highest mountain range and starting a fire in a waterlogged forest are just some of the unpredictable things he faces in this terrain.2 "Fire And Ice" July 25, 2011Bear Grylls is dropped on an ice cap covering an active volcano. In blizzard conditions he struggles to make headway, and the barren land offers little food. Can he reach civilization when faced with swollen river crossings and ever present flash floods?3 "Red Rock Country"
August 12, 2011Bear Grylls is in red rock country - southern Utah. Armed only with a lasso, he descends a rock pinnacle and gets trapped in a narrow gorge. Crossing an arid wilderness, he's left hanging 100 ft above a ravine. And Bear's craziest airplane stunt ever!4 "Land of The Maori" August 19, 2011Over 100 people drown each year in New Zealand, and Bear must cross a raging river on a tree trunk to head toward civilization. On his journey to safety he runs out of water, is forced to climb up active volcanic ranges and scale down a waterfall.5 "Working the Wild" November 29, 2011Bear Grylls takes the viewer behind the scenes to meet the crew that follows his every step. Whether he's jumping from helicopters or eating the unimaginable, the camera is never far away from the action. Now the crew gets to tell their side of the story.
