      ​@lordsneed9418 definitely wrong. That attack is not predatory attack. It's different attack than a mother protecting her cub. We are not in their food source. How many times we fish on river banks and the grizzly bear was also fishing on the other side of the river. But unless there's a mother and cub. We need to be more careful and stay away.

In addition to being attacked by a bear which just happened to bite the can of spray he was unable to use in time, I told my coworker that this man was both the luckiest and unluckiest guy alive.

      1. He went out and bought the bear spray. 2. He took it with him. 3. He held onto the spray.
      The bear tried to bite his neck. He defended his vital arteries, he was holding the bear spray. He didn't panic, and drop the spray. Those actions helped him "fight off" the bear.
      Perhaps a less sensational headline would be: "Man defends himself against Grizzly Bear attack"

    You are danged lucky! I've had a couple of close encounters with grizzlies. Fortunately the encounters did not develope into direct contact with them, thank god! They can move unbelievably fast dispite thier size.
    You handled it as best you could and you reacted right. The imense power they have is terrifing. The bear spray getting puntured was just incredible!
    Im so glad you got off as easy as you did in that encounter brother.
    You will have the best story & scars to tell & show the rest of yiur life.
    Also, glad to hear you are recovering from that brain tumor. You are just having all the fun man! Also, congratulations to you both on finding each other and getting married.
    Y'all are going to have a great life.

      there's always stories and memes going around. like the bison with the pair of jeans on it's horn, after charging a lady. in fact, i almost witnessed one of these moments live. and asian tourist thought she'd just mosey close to the bison (in yellowstone) for pictures or a sefie or god knows what this lady was thinking. i'd pulled over to look and take photos from a distance. she got out of her damn CAR. before i could do anything, and her being on my passenger side, 2 dudes rolled up and immediately one jumped out and says "WHAT THE FKK ARE YOU DOING???" and starts gesturing angrily and emphatically for her to GTFO. embarrassed and unable to take the social stigma she kind of laughed nervously and did a few apology nods and made her way back to the vehicle. but i SWEAR she was waiting a minute to see if they'd leave. NOPE, homeboy was ready to shout it out.
      meanwhile, the bison are like... "fkkn people. swear to god."
      bison are chill. TILL you piss them off or come up on them with hands. they they will fkk you the hell up. charge, ram, gore, they don't mess around. also, they aren't above taking on a car. but grizzlies? nature's can opener. car loses every time.
