NBC revealed on Monday that Bear Grylls has snagged his biggest bold-face name yet: President Barack Obama. On Running Wild with Bear Grylls, the titular survivalist teaches celebrities -- including Channing Tatum, Kate Winslet and Ben Stiller -- how to stay alive in harsh natural conditions.

The network says Obama will join with Grylls during the president's historic three-day visit to Alaska, which begins Monday. Obama is traveling north to raise awareness of the effects global warming has had on the U.S.'s largest state.
"President Obama will meet with Grylls while visiting Alaska to observe the effects of climate change on the area. The two will then come together in the Alaskan Wilderness," NBC's release reads.
"President Obama will become the first U.S. president to receive a crash course in survival techniques from Bear Grylls."
