Chilean miner Edison Pena charmed David Letterman Thursday night.

Edison was Dave’s first guest and  through an interpreter,  he  relayed his harrowing experience of being trapped with 33 other miners for 69 days.

Edison survived the ordeal by running three to six miles a day in the darkness of the mine, and was extended an invitation to run in the New York City Marathon this Sunday, November 7.
