Man vs. Wild: Bear Grylls and his words
By 
Introduction
I love this show. I am a big fan. But sometimes the host, Bear Grylls says words differently than I do.
Granted, I am from the South. Here is a list I am trying not to obsess over.
1
word: algae
pronounced: al-gey (rhymes with key)
2
word: glaciers
pronounced: glassy-iers
3
word: testimoney
pronounced: testi-money
4
word: bananas
pronounced: bah-nah-nahs

Quote From the Show
"Urine is actually 95% water and is sterile when fresh." - Bear Grylls upon running short of water in the Australian outback and reduced to drinking his own pee for hydration.
accents are great.
Bill Simmons recently made a list of funny Canadian pronunciations while watching the NHL draft. Maybe I'll make it a list too giving credit to Mr Simmons of course.
8. Process ("PROH-cess")
7. Against (a-GAY-anst")
6. Go ("goo")
5. Organization ("or-gan--EYE-zah-SHUN")
4. Handicap ("han-dee-cupp")
3. About ("ah-boot")
2. Franchise ("frayn-ch-EYE-zzze")
1. Kudos ("coooooooo-dooooooooooze")
