President Obama continued his awesome pop culture icon tour by venturing out into the Alaskan wilderness with Bear Grylls for Running Wild with Bear Grylls. Take a gander at this clip of him and Grylls chowing down on some salmon left behind by a bear, and wonder with us about the logistics of having the President of the gosh darn United States go out into the wilderness for a television show.

Just how many secret service agents do you think were hiding behind the camera, there? And just why are they calling it a “salmon carcass”? Wouldn’t it just be a salmon? What exactly makes it a carcass versus, say, any other time you’d eat salmon? The mind, she boggles.
