  • A mother grizzly bear and her two cubs followed a hiker, and he kept his cell phone camera rolling during the entire encounter. Most people would be paralyzed by fear but not 74-year-old Geoffrey Glassner, who was visiting National Park in Alaska recently when the bears followed him. Glassner remained calm the whole time. He hoped the grizzly family would turn off the trail, but they just kept coming. The cubs wouldn't stop, and of course protective mother followed close behind. #InsideEdition

    The momma bear knew she was being recorded, she didn’t want to get sued.

      That because his attorney is Jim Adler known as "The Hammer" representing Houston Tx accident victims. Momma bear did not want being slapped with lawsuit by The Hammer! No fun intended towards Mr. Adler he is a very good attorney representing his clients well.

    From what I've experienced and have been told about grizz behaviour, that sow would have treed both those cubs if she thought he was a threat. Normaly when there's potential prey in sight, mama will keep her cubs in tow to learn how to hunt successfully. Dude is VERY lucky on this day. They might have just had a big meal recently.

      Wrong! He was never in any danger. The bear family showed no aggression. It's the instinct of everything in the entire world to take the path of least resistance, hence both the bears and the human using the trail instead of trekking through vegetation. It was just a case of two different species using the same trail at the same time.
