Several readers asked me this week. I wrote this article, with easy instructions, because my 2009 answer and 2012 answer are both wrong. The Web keeps changing. I added a message to my previous instructions to read this article.
It is harder to send Bear Grylls a message in 2013. Bear Grylls only has a contact page for scouting and speaking engagements.
Bear Grylls still has an Ask Bear page. However, you can only read old questions.
What Is The Best Way To Send A Message to Bear Grylls?
Use Twitter. It is easy. I will explain how to do it.
- Login to Twitter or
Join Twitter.
- If you are joining, take your time to create a profile with a photo and your location. Your photo will be displayed with your message.
- Anyone can join. Twitter is free and there is no minimum age.
- Write a short message. Twitter messages must be less than
140 characters. Everything counts, including spaces and periods.
- Check your message for spelling errors!
Is Your Message Perfect?
If Bear Grylls answers your question, a million people will see your message, because Bear Grylls has about a million followers on Twitter.
An Example from a Question I Received
A reader asked if Bear Grylls would be visiting India. If Bear Grylls was here, I would ask:
Do you have any plans to visit India?
Twitter is like email. Instead of an email address, I must add Bear Grylls’s name to the question. Like this:
@BearGrylls Do you have any plans to visit India?

Sadly, Bear Grylls has not replied. He might reply to you. You will never know unless you try!
