Did anyone see the Barack Obama Bear Grylls episode?

I'm sure if you hate Obama, this episode won't change your mind, but if you like him, you might love him now.  And if you love him, you'll love him even more.  And I was never a Bear Grylls fan, but this is a pretty cool episode.  Dunno where you can find it online.

He's not really Hawaiian, you know ... 

I actually thought this episode was extremely dull. . . . expedition wise and personality wise.  I realize that they can't have the President of the United States repelling off a cliff. . . but they could have done something more interesting than a leisurely walk in the woods.

I was much more interested in hearing what the President had to say than watching him do stuff.  Can you imagine the Secret Service agents if he was doing anything dangerous?

On a percentage basis, merely being president of the US is the most dangerous job in the world.   Eight of 43 have died in office.

And of those 43 only 5 are still alive today.

Dangerous, doesn't pay especially well, everyone hates you even when you do a good job, and yet almost nobody quits.

you have your own 747.

My son and I met Bear a couple of years ago and the first thing my son asked him was "do you like to eat a bug sandwich?" I thought it was a great episode and I was delighted to hear climate change getting a prime time spot on NBC.

Bear Grylls?  Lightweight.

I'd like to see Obama spend a few days with Les Stroud with just a selfy stick.
