There were two basic groups working on the pipelines: Eskimos and Texans. Don’t ask me why, but there they were, working side by side laying the pipes clear across Alaska. Eight hundred miles, took two years. L

Thing is, the Texans would only last a few hours in the frigid weather. They couldn’t take the physical or emotional strain very well. But the eskimos would last forever.

The company couldn’t figure it out. So they started doing all these physiological tests. They checked their diets, physical attributes, the density of their blood, all sorts of things.

In the end, the Eskimos just said that they knew it would be cold, were focusing on the task at hand; the Texans were just focused on the weather. The Eskimos were mentally tougher… by a long shot.
