This is why it's always better to have big gun and not need it than to need big gun and not have it. Sometimes there's nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
Yes it DOES seem counter intuitive to NOT run, but it is correct to not run and instead turn and face the bear. (But good luck with that!!! SO incredibly SCARY!!! Best to really be aware at all times if hiking in bear country...I've been there...pepper spray is one option but never needed to use it....thank goodness!
What I meant by saying "scary" was the fact that a person would find it HUMOROUS that people were unknowingly walking into a potentially deadly sitiuation. Yeh...REAL funny! Not exactly a caring individual. Would like to see him in that situation.

Thanks for your response. I'm unclear.... are you saying the individuals talking and reacting to the video (one of whom was laughing) were actually the people IN the video, and watching it later?
As a former staffer in Canada’s national parks, I encountered grizzly bears at close quarters on a trail on four occasions over 30 years. One, it’s extremely difficult not to run if you feel you have the option and the space. But if you felt an attack was inevitable, playing dead is recommended. Two, the guy laughing and laughing repeatedly is a douche! Three, those hikers were still some distance away, maybe out of visual contact, so it was a good thing to run. And four, I’m curious to know whether park officials knew there was a grizzly up that valley. All in all, a tense situation.
Just as in nightmares, don’t run away from your fear, but towards it instead. I promise when you charge headfirst into the grizzly it will burst into confetti and turn into a chocolate rabbit you can eat
@@maryevans9960 😁 always glad to inject humor in the conversation! I wouldn't hike with those people either 😂 a school actually made a song with all the mishaps from yellowstone. It's hilarious.
@B Babbich F-that, I'm running, good luck to whomever is last. It's survival of the fittest and I intend to be the first one to run 😎. Did you see what happened to Leo? No thanks
Well, you won't be running far. Usain Bolt can run 27 miles per hour but a bear can run 35 mph. You run, they are going to think of you as prey and chase you. Personally, I would probably take the third option and have a heart attack. 😁😨
@@jbell9179 ah Usain Bolt can only run in a track for 100m, I may run slower but imma be all over the place, looking for objects to get between me and the bear like other more enticing meals perhaps.
This was a run-of-the-mill bear encounter, just handled in the wrong way. When you go backcountry camping in Glacier, the NPS makes you watch a video that shows you what to do in this exact situation. Seriously, this exact situation. This bear has seen lots of hikers, and the bear handled it better than the hikers did.
I'd say making it home with out any harm was a right thing to do. That bear stopped in his tracks when he saw them scatter and run and turned and went the other way. It confused him. That is sometimes what prey does in the wild. Outmaneuvering not outrunning is the key.
Running from a bear upside the hill is pretty stupid idea: their short forward paws will outperform on a such kind of terrain any human. Also, bear, probably, was scared by itself due to the strange human activities, noises, screams near him.
Would have been awesome had the bear heard that annoying laughter and scared the man who thought it was hilarious. Getting mauled or watching one isnt very funny but hey I'm weird I guess.
That's the point. Bears don't like a ruckus, so they back off. That's why they say bang a pot or make a commotion with loud noise. Looking directly at them or showing fear by running isn't wise. (Although easier said than done!)
idiots should not go into nature if they don't know how to react. a group of three has only ever been attacked once.. hold your ground ya dingleberries!
If you watch at the end you can see what looks like an elk running up the hill. I would bet that's what the bear was after, and it could be that is what the people are laughing at. You see people run to the left and the animal run off to the right. That griz wasn't after the people.
I get the don’t run thing but that bear was more than 100 feet away dammit I’m 🏃🏾🏃🏾🏃🏾💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨...now if it was less than 20 feet I get that it wouldn’t matter to run but knowing me I’m still 🏃🏾🏃🏾🏃🏾💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨
Those hikers down below hauled ass, got some legs on em. Good thing the people filming were looking out. Was kinda funny how fast they took off though🖖
@@hadhamalnam you would spray it and back away slowly if the wind blows it into its face it will hate if it charges more likely the smell will hit it. But bear sprays dont always work. So it's always best to have a gun.
So is that what prey does in the wild? They just lie there and play dead? No they bob and weave and out maneuver their attacker. I agree one should not try and outrun but out maneuver. That's what prey does and mostly gets away.
My natural instinct is to run. I dont care if i never saw the bear. All i needed to hear was the screaming. Zmmmmmm outta there. And then once i felt we were safe i would have asked what happened.... Turn on Jets
Bunch of idiots that SHOULD have been eaten by that bear. I lived in Alaska for 30 and never seen a bear that wasn't stuffed or in a zoo. The first few years and last few years I did a LOT of hiking and fly fishing, never carried a gun ( which is REALLY STUPID in Alaska, never had the money to get one. Sure didn't want a piece of unreliable shit ). Seen lots of bear tracks and lots of bear shit...but NO BEARS. The Brown bears in Alaska are a lot bigger then Canadian or Lower 48 Grizzlies, are big as they are.
Why is this funny? Better them than you? Would you go swimming in shark infested waters knowing at any moment you are suddenly on the menu? Then why go hiking in an area unprepared with the proper knowledge of how to stay alive. This kind of activity. That is supposed to be "fun" makes no sense if you have to constantly be looking over your shoulder. In other words. Getting away with robbing a bank is no good knowing that at any moment you will. Not if. Get caught.
Get off the trail into the thick grass where you can't move and wait for the bear to eat you lol no thanks I'd rather run. Animals don't waste there valuable energy
Only a white person would this happen to, thinking his little screams are going to save him. I'm sorry let me correct myself, a city white man. And this is why you carry a pistola!
Only a CLOWN or a LIBERAL goes to GRIZZLY BEAR country without a 12gauge with GRIZZLY BEAR shots and a 45 pistol for backup, again with GRIZZLY BEAR loads. A grizzly bear has extremely tough Bone and muscles that the bullet needs to get through.
@@rendarchannel , Grizzly bears eat their prey ALIVE. Imagine a grizzly holding you down half dead eating your organs from a huge hole it bit in your stomach. I'm shooting first and asking questions later
@@kbotah2023 yes I spotted them too, it doesn't means it's not lame. The report made it sound like if it was something out of this world. I actually read the story before watching the video.
Don't run?!?! F*ck off with your stupid advice! I know that's the standard advice if you're alone because you can't outrun the bear (Yeah, yeah...we all know it'll think you are prey if you run). But you don't need to outrun the bear. You just need to outrun your 2 buddies! If they're running and you're standing their like a f*cking idiot because you listen to the advice of those morons, guess who is dinner for the bear? YOU ARE! Also, the running seemed to work here anyway. It startled the bear and made it stop. I wish the bear had kept going up the hill and attacked those great advice givers.
That little burst of speed at 10 secs. shows just how easily "he" could have caught them if he REALLY wanted to....scary.
Capable of bursts that exceed 28mph.
This is why it's always better to have big gun and not need it than to need big gun and not have it. Sometimes there's nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
@@nikao7751 - no firearms are allowed in Glacier. Pepper spray has to suffice.
@@nikao7751 Agreed!
@@LUCKY_LARRY so. That's a stupid rule. That's why they have CCW license. Nobody has to know until they do.
"Don't run"? I wouldn't have stopped running until I was in Cleveland.

Running riggers the predator responses and can cause the bear the chase you. You cannot outrun a bear.
Yes but running is a one way ticket to getting mauled
PicturemeRollin TK well if the bear is motivated enough, then things will go badly
The guy laughing about this whole situation is the scariest thing....
To be fair he laughed when it ran towards them, but i was cut from this video.

He's laughing because it's a natural involuntary reaction to extreme stress.
Whenever you go hiking, make sure you are not the slowest person... Those guys had never ran that fast up a hill before.

Bear: when you run, I chase. How come you don't know that?
They were LUCKY. That bear was huge.
Great capture Dulé
Bear starts chasing the people behind the camera
The observers laughing is sociopathic. Hard to listen to.
Not really. He laughed after it was clear the bear wasn’t going to chase them. Probably a nervous laugh more than anything.
Lol its not as bad as it sounds. The bear was pretty far from them tbh.
Dark humor. Made the clip far more interesting. This sort of encounter is not rare. The hikers simply reacted to it poorly.
You don't have to be a fast runner, all you have to do is be faster than the slowest guy. Hahaha
Correct.
I guess after you see how everything is turning out, it is kinda funny.
They didn’t run....they hauled ass outta there lol
I don't understand people who hike where Grizzly bears are and they have no idea how to act if they run into one. Do not run.
I was in glaicer national park, on that hike, at the time that this was happening
Literally nobody cares.
I think I was on that trail, too, that day. Was that the trail to Hidden Lake?
Yes it was! That's pretty cool that we both were there, probably at the same time
Was this in Glacier National park in Canada or the states?

The twist at the end tho
What is the deal with the psychotic guy laughing about it?
Some of us laugh when nervous. Typically right before sex. Really sets the mood.
Because its funny
That's Larson's gold.
Who was laughing? why would you be laughing at that.?
The people who ran should be evicted from the park permanently. Complete morons.
Wow, if you're going to run, at least stay together.
And die together? No thanks

Now he's coming for your ass instead.
Ignorance and stupidity makes wildlife look like monsters. Almost everyone knows one should never run from a bear. It makes u the prey.
So is that what prey does in the wild? They just lie there and play dead? No they bob and weave and out maneuver their attacker. I agree one should not try and outrun but out maneuver. That's what prey does and mostly gets away.
Did anyone mention playing dead? Read guide books of bear experts.
Why would people hike where bears live, at that point ur just looking to get mauled
Run for your life
Bunch of morons. Scared of a little Teddy Bear. He just wanted his belly petted.
I like to see that grizzly come after the a hole that's laughing.
What kind of people LAUGH!!! at other people in danger of being killed by a Grizz?? I Hate! Humans!
3 adult humans there, chances of the bear attacking were extremely low. Notice how the bear went in the opposite direction of the humans
