The actor named a mountain after his wife Mila Kunis at the South Pole. After overcoming an autoimmune disorder, Kutcher pushed himself physically last year, including a trip to the South Pole.

The actor revealed on "Running Wild With Bear Grylls: The Challenge" that he once suffered from a disorder called vasculitis that prevented him from walking, hearing, and seeing. He clarified on Twitter that the "episode" occurred three years ago.

"Last year, I was like I am just going to push myself to the end of my physical capacity in every form," Kutcher said on "The Late Late Show." "I went to the South Pole, I ran a marathon, I went 'Running Wild With Bear Grylls.' I was just going to push it as far as I can just to get the self-confidence that I'm fully back, which I am."

While at the South Pole, Kutcher climbed one of the mountains at the request of a guide. He said, "You're the first person to climb this mountain. You get to name it," Kutcher said. I was like, 'Really? Okay. It's Mount Mila,' and he said, 'No, no, that's bad luck.'"

As a result, Kutcher named the mountain after the Russian word for awesome. Kutcher and Kunis met in 1998, but didn't start dating until 2012. They have two children, Wyatt Isabelle, 8, and Dimitri Portwood, 6. The couple had to "power through" Kutcher's illness together, Kunis said last year.

"I don't think you have time to sit down and talk, you kinda just power through," she said. "You go and deal with whatever health issue comes your way, but you still got kids, you still got a family, you have to live life. And I think that we are so fortunate to have one another, but as far as sitting there and incessantly talking about things, no. You gotta do."
