If there's anyone Obama would want by his side in the Alaskan wilderness, it's Grylls. He spent three years as a soldier in the British Special Forces and then went on to become one of the youngest climbers ever to reach the summit of Mount Everest.
Nearly 3 million people tune in to watch celebrities test their survival skills and and get pushed to their mental and physical limits. NBC should expect big numbers for Obama's episode.
