David Blaine doesn't "wow" me.

Recently David Blaine made international news for spending 3 days in a ball of ice in Times Square. Frankly, I’m not impressed.

In Alaska Eskimos live their entire lives in balls of ice called igloos.

He didn’t even grow a proper beard. Why don’t you try a face blanket Blaine. Instead of that boyish chin strap us Alaskans would consider a badge of shame.

You know what would impress me, if there were a bear in there with you. And you taught him tricks. Maybe if you weren’t aloud to leave until the bear could tap dance. Just throwing it out there. Whatever.

Point is this: David Blaine wouldn’t make it in Alaska, but he’s obviously “made it” in New York.

If you can make it HERE, you can make it anywhere.

Here’s the deal. Dave and I were shooting an ep of “The Last Frontier” and we were doing a new segment called “Models are wusses.” Because it’s true. And we can.

These people make millions by looking hairless and boney and meak. They would be the first to go in Alaska.

We had a good time with it.

And then we came across an ad for New York that said “If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.”
You read it right. Apparently, they’ve been saying this for years. Needless to say, Moose, our camera/IT guy, just about lost it.
After we calmed the big feller down, we started talking about how awesome it would be if we claimed that line as our own. Because it’s true. And we can. Just sign our online petition at www.thelastfrontier.com.

From here on out, we're going to dedicate this blog to showing why we deserve this phrase, and they don't.
