Zac Efron’s Traitors star brother says ‘sign me up’ for Celebrity Bear Hunt 2 – and is even happy to drink his own wee
ZAC Efron's brother Dylan has thrown his name into the ring for Celebrity Bear Hunt series two.
Outdoorsy Dylan, who recently starred in The Traitors in the US, has been a lifelong fan of survivalist Bear and his A-list sibling, 37, even filmed with him for a 2014 episode of Running Wild.
Celebrity Bear Hunt launched on Netflix earlier this month and immediately became the number one most viewed show on the platform.
It followed a group of 12 celebs who were tasked with a series of adrenaline-fuelled challenges in Costa Rica. If that wasn't enough, they also had to evade Bear in a sprawling outdoor area chillingly named The Bear Pit.
A second series seems inevitable, and Dylan, 33, said he would take on any challenge Bear sent his way.
Speaking to The Sun at F1 75 Live last night, he said: "Anything with Bear Grylls, sign me up. I've been watching him since I was a kid. I would do anything out there."

When it was put to him he might have to do some pretty stomach-churning things such as drinking his own urine, Dylan remained undeterred.
"Look, I'll do it," he smiled. "I've done a lot worse off camera."
It's not the only reality adventure show he'd be keen to test himself on.
Survivor and Celebrity SAS are two programmes he believes he'd be well suited to tackling.
He said: "As a kid I always wanted to do Survivor just because I watched it growing up. But look, there's so many new shows, like Special Forces. Any of those where I'm going to go and have fun and challenge myself, I'd consider."
A move into acting could also be on the cards, though he doesn't expect to be rivalling brother Zac anytime soon.
Launching his career with the hugely popular High School Musical franchise, Zac has gone on to star in the likes of The Greatest Showman, The Iron Claw, A Family Affair.
He also controversially portrayed and received acclaim for playing serial killer Ted Bundy in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile.
Dylan said: "No, if anything, I have a huge respect for actors, like my brother. Because I know it's a skill set. I know I'm not going to play Ted Bundy in my first role.
"I can play a role that's similar to me. Like, Into the Wild, give me that role, I can crush that. Luckily, there are a lot of roles that are like me.
"I've changed my jobs a thousand times. I've been a writer, a stunt guy, a producer. I like to see what's next. I could see a little acting; my bread and butter is adventure shows. I love travelling and I love learning new things."
Dylan's certainly had a varied career so far.
He's worked on the set of films such as Steven Spielberg's futuristic Ready Player One, The Accountant, Live by Night and war biopic American Sniper.
And he was a producer and starred in his brother Zac's travel series Down to Earth with wellness advocate Darin Olien.
More recently he took part in The Traitors and quickly became the season's heartthrob.
While the show is famed for its backstabbing, treachery and lies, Dylan was just happy to be himself and go along for the ride.
