Washington, Apr 24 : American actor/comedian Will Farrell was forced to drink his own urine to survive his expedition on the Discovery Channel''s Man vs. Wild.

The show''s host Bear Grylls went on a two-day joint expedition with the comedian in the Swedish hinterland.

Armed with only the most basic survival equipment, Grylls took Ferrell through the paces of real life survival in the ice-bound mountain and glacier ranges in the far north of Sweden.

Farrell, who participated in the show to promote his adventure comedy, Land of the Lost - what it takes to find food in the forests, had to drink his own urine and munch on reindeer eyes to survive the tough journey.

"To be able to participate in an episode of Man vs. Wild was a thrill of a lifetime, even though I did get urine-drunk which is sad," Usmagazine quoted Ferrell as saying in a statement.

"Will did an amazing job in sub-zero, very unforgiving conditions," said Grylls.

"He trusted me when it mattered and we survived. And he has definitely had an adventure! He should be very proud of how he performed," he added. (ANI)
