Monica Geller & Bear Grylls Join Forces

by Emily Lackey

A whole new crew of celebrities have signed on to run wild with Bear Grylls in the upcoming season of the NBC series Running Wild with Bear Grylls. But when I heard that Courteney Cox would be one of the celebrities joining Grylls in the middle of nowhere to see how long she could last, the first thought I had was, “Oh man, Monica Geller would be great at that.” Because can't you just imagine Monica stuck in the middle of nowhere with nothing to guide her way but a few items that she’s managed to pack for the adventure? Honestly, I think she’d be incredible at surviving the elements, which is why I hope Cox takes her former Friends role into account when packing for the trip. Because as much as she might be a Hollywood big wig, Cox might fare a little bit better in the wild by relying on Monica’s wily smarts and sheer strength.

Because if it were Monica who was being sent into the wild with Grylls, I’m pretty sure she’d pack all the right things to survive. Well, all the right things and a few wrong things, too, because some of her crazier characteristics might get the best of her.

Too Many Towels

You might think that Monica packing all 11 types of towels she keeps in her linen closet might seem like overkill, but when it comes to surviving the cold and trapping animals, they might really come in handy.

Things To Cook With

Does Bear Grylls need a stand mixer to survive? Probably not. But if Monica showed up with one, you know he wouldn’t complain.

Items For A Perfect Bath

Bath salts and the wild don’t seem like they would go together, but staying sane and relaxed is an important part of survival. So if that means finding a warm eddy and filling it with lavender bubbles, so be it.

Cleaning Supplies, Obvi

Don’t laugh. When mold starts growing on your sleeping bags or you’re attacked by a swarm of bees, that gallon of bleach could really come in handy.

Coffee From Central Perk

Because everything is better with coffee. Especially the outdoors.

The Entire Gang

With six heads in the game, their chances of survival may just increase.

Her Insane Strength

By far Monica’s greatest survival tactic, her freakish strength will get Cox through some of the toughest challenges of surviving the wild.

So if Courteney Cox knows what’s good for her, she’ll take a play from Monica’s book and be sure to bring some of these survival essentials.
