Bear Grylls wants Dappy to star in his survival show.

The former soldier - who, in his programme, 'Born Survivor', has had to drink his own urine, eat various insects and parachute from a helicopter - is keen for the N-Dubz singer to take part after hearing that he refers to himself as a "jungle man".

He said: "Yes, let's put Dappy in the mix. I'm all about encouraging people to get out there and enjoy the outdoors. Whether it's Dappy or a 10-year-old kid in Liverpool, go for it.

"Life is there for the taking and adventures are there to be lived off."

And it seems Dappy would be a willing participant as he recently said he would like to follow in Bear's footsteps.

The 'No Regrets' hitmaker said: "It's all about living life to the fullest. There is so much you can do out in fields with space.

"I'm a jungle man. I like the greenery and the scenery and the wild. I love lakes, fishing, fire -- my pops was born in Africa so I've got that in me.

"I'd like to do a Bear Grylls-style show."

Last year, Hollywood actor Jake Gyllenhaal took part in Bear's other show, 'Man vs Wild', and the pair trekked fro two days through Iceland's glaciers.
