That bear frolicking about has obviously abandoned social media and is living its best life.
Awesome lol looks like a puppy in the snow
Who cares about social media. It sucks
He probably has a tripod setup and is adding to his story. Caption something like. “Buffalo cauliflower and good times, yolo”
@@vthomlinson HAHAHAAAA!
Join the club :) deleted facebook, insta, and snapchat in november and im never going back
That Baby Bear was having the time of his life
@@gunnar5489 I’m dying 😂
@@gunnar5489 Lmao YEsssss
Living his best life!
...that or tripping balls 😆
@@gunnar5489 Made me choke on my beer.
"Clearly that bear is too happy to harvest" steve is just out there shooting depressed bears. Steve "the bear psychologist" rinella
Another reason why everyone is happy when Steve is around.
Lol, the Castro method. Shoot all the depressed bears, and you instantly raise the mental health of all bears
@@greattribulation1388 Maybe good for covid as well 😁
@@FOOKUA-camNUMBERS lol
lmao
"Casting into the water is like asking a question and, somehow, an empty hook is, still, a satisfactory answer"
Now, that's poetry.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
His Bachelor of Arts in English being put to good use.
Love that
I bet 90% of us are jealous as hell of Steve for figuring out how to make a living doing what he does, but a whole hell of a lot less could come up with that line. I know I couldn't. Poetry, indeed.
@@georgiegan He has a masters in creative writing too.
Am I supposed to be itching like a mofo while watching this episode?? I keep swatting away mosquitoes in my office.
LMFAO that makes two of us
Me too! Now get back to work😜
Same!
When they were putting the tents up and there's already a couple hundred in there
You're on crack.
I like that a bear can be "too happy" to consider a shooter. I do love Rinella's complicated relationship with bear hunting.
Ahhhh the meat eater crew got us once again , on the edge on our seats for a few days till part 2 😂 Awesome job Steve and thanks for the your service Rorke
Just watched part 2 on the meat eater web site. Go check it out
@@daveyconcrete9801 Same. No ads in the middle of it, and able to use picture in picture on the phone also. 👍🏻
Wow I just read this after the video ended
As i was watching that bear, the words "he's too happy to shoot" absolutely made my day.
Plot twist: That “happy” young bear was getting swarmed by bees.
The "clearly this bear is too young and happy to hunt " line happy me laughing for a few minutes, for some reason that line made me laugh pretty hard.
They really left us on a cliff hanger like that 😂
foreal lol
lol seriously right as the safety comes off.
They really fucked with my head on this one! Brutal
I could be wrong but I think he shoits it and it charges them I'm not 100% sure tho, just heard something recently about rinella having another run in with a bore
@@christianbanick496 this video is YEARS old
The Navy seal speaking to the relief of not carrying the burden of decision making, while so accustomed to his own resulting in life or death for his men, even with regards to a lower risk (unless that grizzly gets an attitude) really says a lot about the man’s character and recognizing ownership. That’s how a man pays a true dear compliment to another man whom he views his equal
20:30 OMG the Navy Seal forgot to take off his safety ;)
and he flinched
It’s comforting in an add way lol
What does that mean?
@@jeffso1000 Officers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Jajajajajaja
That young bears behavior put a smile on my face. 🙂
Never been more addicted to a show, the hunt, the lessons, the landscapes, the game.
Steve brings the good every ep, pure class 👌
Coming to you all the way from Australia
I'm from Brazil. My dream is to live like this, like you. My dream is to hunt with Steven Rinella. Strong hug from Brazil. My name is Hiago Morais. I don't miss a video. Both on youtube and netflix
Keep working for it Hiago and your dream will become reality. Don’t worry about the people that get enjoyment from putting down others, it’s easy to see that they are just filled with sadness and or hate.
@@dowhatyouloveortheywin9791 thank you very much for the comment. I will take it as a life lesson! Prejudiced comments like what I saw, only strengthens my personality so that I don't become a bad person. I was surprised by your comment because I thought it would be another hate speech like the last one I saw. But it was not! thank you so much. I will keep your words forever.
Are you legally allowed to hunt in Brazil?
@@landonboomsma2594 Yea. Only wild boar
@Vincent Nothstine fr
You and your crew are living legends for putting this stuff out free to air. You've inspired me to take, process and consume my own dear in Australia.
Love your work keep it up, you're a true man.
Hope you’re not eating your wife
Whatcha mean by "take"?
10:39 that perspective is so cool to see the black bear run from the grizzly. Awesome shot!
I hunt bears with my fly rod, mostly get trout though.
I hunt with f1 grenades, mostly get felonies though.
That bear saw y’all and was like “time to put on a show”
"And weirdly, too happy". 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
“You bastards!” I said aloud after seeing the ending😂
"Son of a bitch man!" Is what I said lmao
The bears are on to us; "Act happy and they don't Shoot" Yogi Bear 2021
best episode so far, i agree. what a nice guy this ex-operator dude is. for a seal to ask a guy like steve something like
"so how are we gonna do the glassing?". always open minded, always learning, super humbe.
as if he has not spent years glassing for the worst of all predators:)
Learning to hunt in my late 30's was the only way I could find to quench my continued need to chase quarry. I was immediately hooked, and have been healing through hunting ever since. Much respect to both of these gentlemen, and would love to even grace their presence around a campfire for an evening!
Rorke...not sure about you, but where I am from there would have been an informal fine paid at the range for that ;-) This has been my favourite MeatEater episode yet, so thank you gents!
That landscape/back drop is utterly gorgeous. Love this episode, would be awesome to have him back on the show for another/different hunt for season 10!
Wow. That shot at 10:43 with the black bear running from the grizzly...managing to get them both in one frame. That's epic.
Pretty cool
That black bear is my new spirit animal. You know which one
13:48 That bear is for sure enjoying life more than I am right now.
You guys just made my life, put you guys on Netflix on repeat cause you always catch something new between each episode. Im so happy to see you guys on UA-cam
How do you not laugh seeing that young bear just loving life😆
the little bear playing was amazing
That young bear is the epitome of how we wish we are everyday. Loving the hell out of life
One of the best episode I have ever seen. Good story, music and cinematography. Can't wait for second episode.
It’s unbelievable how much deeper of a meaning your channel has become its really amazing.
Steve seems to be one of the most genuine person you could ever meet. This man has hunted about every animal in North America plus some yet he will sit down with another hunter and take in as much knowledge as he can. He don’t act like he knows it all. He listens and I love seeing that. That is rare among people now days. His hunts are never scripted. He packs a back pack and just goes out to spot and stock. He braves the elements and does some of the hardest hunts I have ever seen. Especially the hunts for mountain goat. This is a man that I would love to sit down and talk to. The stories he can tell I bet are endless and full of excitement. Steve is about one of the only people that I can actually watch hunt.
That bear playing literally made my day
“With hordes of mosquitos” next frame is the poor guy just getting his life sucked outta him
That was some entertaining footage I’ll probably never seen in person. Thanks for sharing!
Firstly and most importantly, thank you, Sir, for everything you've done for our country. Secondly, Acts of Valor is one of my all time favorite movies. Lock it down.
Oh man that “to be continued” cut me deep😂 I was on edge!
Hour 30 into glassing
Steve: Yeah, this episode's getting a cliffhanger.
The ending gave me chills dude idk why lol. I legit yelled "no way!!!!" I was ready to see the shot hahaha
I've watched nearly all of your UA-cam and NetFlix videos. This two-part video is pretty special. Your honoring of Rorke's service and him having the bear hunting experience was perfect.
I wish I'd have started hunting earlier in my life. I've missed a lot of those opportunities. While I've spent over 38 years in the Forest Service spending time in the woods and Wilderness, I've not had the rich part of doing the same thing hunting deer and elk in the same environment.
Now, as I'm in my mid-60s, and an early stage of Cancer, I feel it passing me by.
I have very few friends that hunt, so last year I went out on my own. It was a special time. This year I'll likely do the same. I treat hunting as a cheap gym membership, to avoid the disappointment of no meat in my freezer.
I really enjoy your videos!
Awesome episode! Man you guys aren't lying when the bugs in alaska are brought up, wow!
keep doing episodes with awesome guests like this. Rorke is a beast I've read his book and it was awesome
Fantastic episode! Thanks for the amazing content mate!
Fast forward to 12:34 there is bear having so much fun. Incredible.
Great episode great views great hunt great end and GREAT AND RESPECTABLE MILITARY MAN! Appreciate you putting this on film!
Great job! My heart was pounding at the end. It's as if I was right there with you guys.
The last 3 secs of this was unbelievable
Oh nice episode! Can’t wait for part 2
That bear was having a blast, living his best life!!!! I love it and I'm glad Steven chose not to kill that one !
That baby cub a mood
That's a dream hunt. Days in AK with Steven learning and seeing the backcountry and wildlife.
That Cut just before the shot is killing me. Cant wait for Part II...! :D
Hahahaha LOVE ❤️ the blurred out case of PBR 🍺 in the beaver “2:18-2:28”...getting the band back together!
Love the way you conducted this hunt 100% respect.
I like how in the beginning he says he hasn't seen mosquitos and in the next clip there is like a bunch attacking his buddys face ahahahah
Awesome episode! Cant wait for part 2
13:26 that bear is trying to impress that seal with his tactical rolling and crawling lol
Thank you for your service.
Beautiful hunt. Thanks for hosting an American legend and hero. May God bless all that you endeavor to do.
Aaaaaaaaaaw! I hate cliff hangers! 😆 can't wait to see part 2. That young bear footage is second to none! TY for your service Cmd Denver.
That bear dragging his nuts through the grass having a good time just being a bro .. saved his life .. lol thanks Steve
With one comment you brought up a lot of memories. My grandfather use to quote poems all the time and the cremation of sam Magee was one of them
Reall y interesting to hear him compare and relate hunting to his combat training and experience.
Oh man that trigger jerk at the last second of the video was drastic, safety will get ya every time! Something I have to constantly remind myself about. Cant wait for part 2.
Ooo you guys got me itching on this episode cant wait for more of the action
13:23 How wonderful it is to just see a bear rolling down the hill for fun. That is the very definition of "Living in the moment".
Its nice to know that even hunters know when to leave a happy animal alone
That young bear just felt the warm apple pie for the first time 😂
Best episode yet, I think
That baby bear made my day 🐻
Thanks for your service, big thanks on Veterans Day today. Love this channel
Steve I can't say it enough how much I appreciate your great content excellent footage
At the end I almost woke my neighbours up shouting TAKE THE SHOT!!! 😅
Respect for all who serve, and a hell of an adventure too. good one fellas!
Great episode!
Just met Commander Denver, and he’s the nicest dude ever. I just hope he’s still hunting!
You guys are killing me just releasing part 1!
Thanks for your service sir
Damn it! I was waiting on the shot! Next time, then. I’ll wait. I love this show!
Can’t wait to see part 2!
That was the happiest bear I ever saw, I want that disposition. Thank u for ur service sir. I believe we all have that happy guaranteed by men n women like u sir
Steve ,We need part 2😁
Thank you brother for sharing your thoughts and adventures
Awesome episode
I think that man more than a hunter, he humbled himself in the show.
Really good video. The suspense is killing me!!!
I watch one episode and I’m hooked to this
8:22-8:28 jeez that was beautifully said,could have been a line in "A River Runs Through It"
What an awesome experience. Steve is a young hunting legend. I've been hunting since I was 6 years old & I turned 35 this year. I feel like I learn to be a better hunter from Steve. His takes & his views of the animals they pursue, are one of a kind. Hunters could use more MeatEater & less Buck Commander
Bruh I've never been so pissed off at a "to be continued..." lol 😅😅😅 looking forward for the continuation
They hit us with the part two !!
Yooo what the fuck!!😭😭the “ to be continued” at the end had my wife an I yelling “noooooooo!!! Whyyy??!!” 😂 the hype is on another level over here. We love to watch all of the videos y’all post an learn as much as we can. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Been waiting on this episode for a long time!
This is the best episode of meateater yet! When we getting part 2!
This is THE BEAR that gave Steve and crew trichinosis
To be continued, yall got me good with that one
