Survival expert and adventurer Bear Grylls is back in action - but this time he won't be alone as he takes everyday people on a personal journey to face their fears. In each episode of BEAR GRYLLS: BREAKING POINT, he'll be joined by two people who have a serious phobia or personal obstacle to overcome, from the common - rats, spiders and insects - to the bizarre - trees, water and wind. He will evaluate them from afar, before they set off on their own in the wilderness for 24 hours, followed by a challenging two-day journey with Bear. The new series explores a whole range of different fears, including a UK sufferer of OCD, who's terrified of dirt and blood because he's scared of contamination, and two aqua-phobic men tormented by a fear of water, after one lost a son to drowning and the other was a victim of the tsunami. Bear himself will be pulled beyond his comfort zone and put under extreme pressure as he tries to encourage, empower and cajole his companions to face their demons.
