The ONE Thing Obama Wouldn’t Do On Bear Grylls (Video)

Obama’s appearance last night on Running Wild With Bear Grylls featured the climate in chief eating some bloody salmon, but there was one thing he did not do, drink his own pee.

But Obama refused to drink his own urine saying: “I suppose, in extremis, it’s something that I would do—if the alternative was death,” he said. “It’s not something I’d make a habit of. And I probably wouldn’t do it just for a TV show.”

He did, however, eat some salmon that was previously nibbled on by a bear (the animal, not Grylls). “I’ve seen some of the stuff Bear eats, and it’s gotta be something that doesn’t still have its legs and eyes on it. I want it not to be too recognizable,” Obama said. “Bear’s a mediocre cook, but the fact that we ate something recognizable was encouraging. h/t time

Now, the fact that he told me this was a leftover fish from a bear, I don’t know if that was necessary. He could have just left that out.”
