Hmm, I like to run for offices that I can't reach like the bank of Finland and European Parliament run all these posts but I never have any success so when you have too much to drink you run for public office that's pretty much it if someone's giving you a hard time would you ever say get off my back man! would you ever do that? well that's only human, of course can we hear you do that say i'm giving you a hard time hey hey buddy hey buddy hey buddy hey buddy hey buddy come on get off stop that you mad man that was, that was that was crazy you watch my show? Of course. Yeah, were you excited that I was coming to Finland when you found out? yes. you should do more Walker from texas do more walker texas? walker texas ranger?

Isn't that exciting? you guys wanted me and here I am I'm from China. Oh! Yeah. Oh I'm sorry I thought you were from Finland. No no. Oh cause it's me it's Conan O'Brien This is the central harbor pretty much the water is frozen over one of the advantages is if you miss your cruise you can walk after it if you walk quickly you should catch the boat within 10-15 minutes and they'll let you back on Conan O'Brien? Yes that's me. May I come aboard. Incredible in this country I'm randomly invited on boats nice look at this right here, look at that. That's an ominous diagram right there is that something that happens daily here? is that so you know what a sinking boat looks like? we can tell the finns are a a. A hard drinking people this is just a tugboat and it needs one two three reminders not to drink martinis This is avery he's a doctor from the United States you're visiting this just a fun cruise for you right now pretty much just sight seeing. Right, sight seeing I have not seen a living thing I mean I don't see any wildlife at all there's rumour that there was a polar bear on one of those islands over there but he shot himself. He couldn't take it anymore So what kind of doctor are you? dermatologist. Ok Ok I think that's about it right there it's okay stop ok, stop stop. Okay! see... See Didn't listen You have to do it your way. Finns. This is the sauna-seura which is finnish for sauna society it's a place where people can have a sauna they can come here relax and reenact the climax from Fargo Your name is? *?* Please say it again? *sep-po-hookula?* Yes well I'm familiar with many languages I've forgotten it already. Now uh, Charles It's Charles right? Correct me if I'm wrong the concept is you go into a room superheated you get the body very very very very very very hot then you run outside yeah and you jump in a extremely cold water. yeah. this is the Baltic Sea yes actually it's the sea no you don't realize it's the sea because it's frozen right. But it is saltwater. It's saltwater but Normally this time of the year late February we have what's called uni the saltwater freezes. Look at that that's incredible you know you're in finland when someone says I'm gonna go I'm gonna go take my dog, I'll take rover out for a walk on the frozen Baltic Sea That guy's out there ice fishing way way out there we got here several hours ago and he was in the exact same position just sitting there it's bitterly cold out here is there any chance he's dead No he's just sitting. But how do you know? A lot of people die and just slump over I've seen it on the subway all the time. So this is actually where the dunking takes place the immersion they walk down these stairs and they just keep on walking out to the water level above here. if you stop in the middle you come back because its, it's freezing cold you know. so when you go in the water you must be naked is that the custom? You'd want to hide your penis. Yeah. Some sometimes well if you go into the water like this it will it will be so little good luck Good job STOPPPINGPOINT group with you almost the this she shoots soon yeah and after after the Sunday
