There's no way to make that comparison, really. That's like asking: aircraft carrier or speedboat? They both have their uses but are so different those uses don't overlap at all.

Well shit, the Falcon has no lockable warheads of any sort and the quad laser turrets were operated manually. Even a retard Enterprise has phasers and anti-matter-tipped photon torps, guided by a fucking computer.

Prince Covering Creep

Creep was always RH's best song. Prince does a great version, imho.

These guys have historically been quite good about fact checking. It's likely they verified the details before producing the video.

EDIT: It's possible there's a cultural misunderstanding going on, I guess. That maybe the ominous things we see in such a system don't apply the same way in Chinese culture. But I doubt it.

Running Wild with Bear Grylls President Barack Obama

When I saw the link on Reddit I thought it was a joke.

Isn't that the same survivalist dude who got caught sleeping in hotel rooms between shoots?

Yes. Originally he pretended to do it all himself, but once busted they now have disclaimers that the dead animals he finds are planted, and he has help.
Many of his "remote" sites are just off the road. It's a lot of smoke and mirrors and I won't watch him.

Les Straud (Survivorman) is the real deal.
From what I can tell Naked And Afraid is legit as well.

Well, it's a more interesting way to spend his spare time than clearing brush on his ranch, I'll give him that.
