WATCH: Fox News Anchor Reports Live From the Arctic Ocean in -18 Degrees
Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer donned his warmest parka to report live from an ice floe on the Arctic Ocean Friday.
In a segment aptly titled “Where in the world is Bill Hemmer?” Dana Perino revealed Hemmer’s location on America’s Newsroom.
“We have showed you pictures all morning asking you to guess, ‘Where in the world is Bill Hemmer?’ Time for the big reveal!” Perino said.
Hemmer joked, “We came to the Caribbean, Dana!” as you could see his breath while he spoke.
“We’re in the Arctic Ocean, several hundred miles north of Alaska on an active ice floe that is moving slowly through the Arctic Sea. We came here with the U.S. Navy. They come up every two years and they run arctic drills throughout the area,” he said, adding that the temperature was negative 18 degrees.
“We have come here to see how they operate. How they live. How they survive over a period of five weeks time here in the Arctic. It’s something else, guys, I gotta tell you. Unless you’re here it’s really hard to understand just how dynamic and complex and challenging, and barren. We were in a plane yesterday for about an hour and a half. We flew 200 miles. There is nothing but ice everywhere. And it’s all flat, and it’s all cold,” Hemmer said.
Hemmer added that later, he and his photojournalist would be boarding a nuclear submarine to dive deep under the Arctic Ocean.
“These are some of the most amazing pieces of machinery you will find anywhere in the world. So, we’re going to get a first-hand look at that, as well…We’re gonna come back with a story, and it’s a story we’ve never done before, we’ve never told before. And I don’t think we’ve ever done a live shot here in the Arctic Ocean,” Hemmer said.
