Grylls rescue delayed by bad weather

Bear Grylls has been airlifted to safety four days after injuring himself during an expedition.

The TV adventure was trekking through the Antarctic when he fell and damaged his shoulder. Bad weather caused the delay in picking up Grylls, reports People.

After being flown into Cape Town, Grylls said: "It's really good to be back in a normal place. Now I just want to get back to my family... and have my shoulder sorted out."

Grylls's expedition was not part of his Discovery Channel show Man Vs. Wild. He was in Antarctica to promote alternative fuels.
