Megan Hine’s Instagram biography tells us she’s a “Professional adventurer and TV personality. Survival and safety consultant globally in extreme, remote locations. 4×4 stunt drive.”
What it doesn’t tell you is that she’s the bad-ass woman who is saving Bear Grylls’ hide, every single day.
The 30-year-old expedition leader consults on Bear Grylls’ successful TV franchise bearing his name. According to The Guardian, the pair met in 2007 in the Swiss Alps when she was running school holiday survival expeditions. Hine’s recently appeared on “Bear Grylls’ Mission Survive” as one of “two survival captains”, but she has consulted for a range of TV programs for the National Geographic and Discovery Channel as well as films set in remote and difficult terrain.

I would very much like to see a demonstration of how to start a fire with a tampon, please. Also I'm sure there's a 'burning bush' joke in there somewhere, I'm just too lazy right now to think of it. :)
I can't remember exactly how it goes, but I'm pretty sure the tampon is used as kindling, but the flame is started using something else (matches, a lighter, rubbing two sticks together etc).
