Bathing in the same water that you drink
From BearWiki
Claim: If you've found a source of fresh water, don't contaminate it by bathing in it.
In the Kimberley, Australia episode, Bear rinses his hair straight into his just-found source of freshwater. Bathing in your drinking water is never advisable, from a health-and-hygene standpoint.
[edit] Analysis
Oppose: In this episode Bear only drinks water from natural springs, along with his own urine, he never drinks from any rivers he bathes in.
- Support: Even if true (see below), it's a really, really stupid thing to do. This is categorized under bad advice, and opposing it doesn't make it less so.
Support: Incorrect. Bear rinses his hair straight into the water he fills his canteen from.
- Oppose: It was moving water.
Support: Yeah, just like the "moving water" that he thought would be OK to drink in the Amazon. You know, the moving water that made him sick and vomit.
