The trapper on the adjoining line to ours was a 70-something-old native gentleman who taught me a lot about trapping and nature in general. He lived on his line year-round in a log cabin. He had a husky cross dog that weighed around 100 pounds. once when he went to town for supplies and came back to his dog mauled. When we met him after the incident he showed us the dog. The dog's face was Frankenstiened back together and his body had stitches all over. All done by him in the bush as vets at that time were few and far between. He was so proud of his dog as the grizzly never got into his cabin. The dog still waged his tail and loved to be petted and lived on the line for many more years.
1,200 pounds, runs 30+ mph, out climbs, out swims any human, jaws that can snap you in half, incredible stregth and stamina. A real life monster, total respect for bears.
Yeah grizzly and kodiak bears are OP. people think lions and tigers are scary (which they are)... But bears just insanely scary. I wouldnt feel safe in a humvee around a mama grizzly
@@karnasingh860 SMH no. We can't kill them. WEAPONS can kill them. You against a bear without a weapon? He'll be shitting out parts of your body, the next morning
Sort of thing that would happen when your alone and nobody believes you. What a story for the grandkids eh? Oh what the time I rode a 11 and half foot grizzly down a mountain in 100 mile per hour winds?
I watched a 300 + lb black bear climb up to the top of a tree in a matter of seconds.. totally surprised me to see an animal that big go straight up a huge tree with no problem whatsoever.. I knew they could climb but what impressed me was the speed and ease of it.. awesome animal.. black brown red it doesn't matter they are machines..
Big difference between the blacks and grizzlies, here in WA there are black bears everywhere, we've got tons of hikers and people going out to the mountains all the time, like there are millions of people in the Seattle urban area and there are mountains right nearby just swarming with black bears. Literally only one person has been killed by a black bear in this state in 1974, and since 1970 there have been only 19 attacks, that's 52 years and there's only been more people coming in progressively but the attacks aren't increasing, it's a damn peace treaty up here. Meanwhile Grizzly bears inhabit the most isolated and rugged parts of the US, including Alaska. Yet somehow there are way more attacks and certainly way more fatal attacks. I mean Montana, Wyoming, Idaho is literally almost all wilderness just small towns and barely any small cities, and yet there are still attacks all the time, aggressive and fatal attacks. Technically nationwide there are more black bear attacks, (maybe because they live in basically almost every state and near all of the major population centers) but the amount of Grizzly attacks for living in only 4 states and those states being the most isolated?? Jesus no wonder they were hunted to damn near extinction
The bears around here are around 1000 pounds. 1 swipe from them and your dead. The vegetation is dense and hard to walk through, and the terrain is steep and tiring. Joe rogan: what about the elk? They are big Joe rogan: *wow*
You should try to grab a cub if you see it in the wild, Mother bears love it when you grab there cub by the legs and pick it up, to them it’s a fun silly game .
I'm from the UK and we dont have bears here, I have always wanted to see bears in Alaska/Canada, if I ever go this advise will be very helpful to get a good experience. Thank you. 👍
"The bear started to charge us. I looked over and was terrified to see that squidward had drawn an oval and not a circle. I instantly knew my old clarinet playing friends life was in a lot of danger because ovals do not protect against sea bear attacks."
I experienced a large brown bear. Not as big mine was proabably 650 lbs. They move very fast. In seconds he covered 30 yrds in the opposite direction , luckily. I was on a quad. The size of my appearance on the quad is what saved me. I still filled my shorts. You have to respect this majestcally powerful creature. Something that large can move as fast as they do. Amazing.
"I've thought about it a million times" The interview took place 3 months after the incident. That's 11,000+ times per day. So once every 7-8 seconds, for 3 months. Impressive dedication.
Bud, I think about the same thing every 3 seconds if I'm stressed or worried. If I got attacked by a fuckin bear, I'd have to be even more of an alcoholic to not think about that shit every day.
That reminds of when me and my girlfriend were hiking in the mountains for a weekend about a year ago. Bear came out of nowhere and tried attacking us. Luckily I brought my 44 magnum with me. One shot to the kneecap took care of it. My girlfriend fell down right then and the bear took her. I was lucky that I made it out alive!
Biggest thing I ever saw was a Moose in Minnesota. We drove up on it in the early morning in the boundary waters. We thought it was a statue because it was right outside a little campground near the office. Then it moved. Enormous antlers. Huge beast. We all just stopped and stood in awe rubbing our eyes. Beautiful massive creature.
He's probably the coolest/dumbest guy at the party, imagine telling people how you literally rode a bear down a mountain. Some would be in total disbelief others would call him a damn liar. But in the end he's the coolest one there because no one can just ride a bear and survive.
He was 14 feet tall if he was an inch. And the wind! she was a blowin' 100 mph! He charged me. That's when I juked left, then right. To avoid being eaten alive I flipped like Mary Lou in 84' vaulting past the giant beast. I stuck the landing and grabbed my pistol. As I chased him down the mountain I realized that my brave friend was riding on the behemoth's back, defiantly commanding him, "behave yourself!" as he tried to tame the wild beast.
It's actually not farfetched at all to hear him tell it. When you do things/adventures all the time you realize truth really is always stranger than fiction. Everything is so unpredictable you can't make up what really is gonna happen. People in comments saying the stories bullshit guarantee do nothing. They have no reference for what's possible besides what they read or watch on media.
As much as I wish this was all on video I think the fact it's not makes the story better. All the men that experienced what most would consider a nightmare situation now have a story that ties them together stronger than blood or any bond formed through normal means. A true sense of brotherhood.
I was hiking with my son in NJ on the AT and we were cresting a ridge and as I stepped up to the plateau a black bear, I'd say 300 lbs, was crossing the trail, it paused, saw me and kept walking, but in that pause because I was with my 12 year old son, I was scared in a way that I never felt before. It was the most horrible feeling I have ever experienced.
@@obscure323ro doesn't know about bear spray. guns wouldn't work unless you shoot em like 5 times they just have enough momentum. plus, if you see a bear, it doesn't give you the right to automatically kill it. this is why bear spray is necessary
In October 1998 was attacked by a adult male brown bear in the coastal region of south western Alaska. I was forced into a corner and boxed the bear for what seemed like hours, i had bloodied his nose he then swatted my face and almost broke my neck it was a vicious battle...undescribable pain. I eventually had the bear in a toe hold as he winced in pain i saw my chance then switched position and fell into a perfect rear naked choke that I had learned from Rickson Gracie the bear slowly lost consciousness then passed out. I thought I had killed him which greatly saddened me as i was considering cpr as he woke up, looked at me with respect mixed with fear and admiration he walked back into the woods and took a shit. I came home and never spoke of the story until now I feel as if a great weight has been lifted from me.
Growing up in the wilderness I have found that Bears don't respect MMA. You have to go old school, Figure four leglocks, piledrivers, and powerbombs. Its why Brock Lesnar left MMA when he moved to Canada and went back to WWE.
Not going to say if that part about riding the bear is true or false but he said that he saw the bear take someone away so he asked for a count, everyone shouted back except for one person he asks who's missing and then the guy who rode away on the bear came up from the brush, so I would assume that he fell off in the thick brush and the bear was too panicked to turn back for him
What a great story , it shows you how fast things can happen in life and how unprepared these guys were. They were complacent and it almost cost them ..
Yeah, even from the beginning he recounts how hazardous and inhospitable the landscape was for the group to hike. The Elk and bears there he and Joe described as “giants” and “monsters” They had no fucking business encroaching on bear territory and killing their food/elk. They’re lucky karma didn’t bite back harder. Next time they won’t be so lucky because they’ll continue to go where they don’t belong; looking for trouble.
@@tsering9262 so ur saying we dont belong on this earth and wasnt created by nature or even created by god to live here just as bears are? okay then, next time you see a bear, let it inside your house. see how much it gives a fuck about your territory.

The largest verified size for a captive Kodiak bear was for a specimen that lived at the Dakota Zoo in Bismarck, North Dakota. Nicknamed "Clyde," he weighed 966 kg (2,130 lb) when he died in June 1987 at the age of 22. According to zoo director Terry Lincoln, Clyde probably weighed close to 1,089 kg (2,400 lb) a year earlier. He still had a fat layer of 9 in (23 cm) when he died. Also, an individual named Teddy, which portrayed a killer bear in the movie Grizzly, stood 3.4 metres (11 ft) tall on hind legs and was the largest bear in captivity at the time. Otherwise An average adult male measures 244 cm (8 ft 0 in) in length, and stands 133 cm (4 ft 4 in) tall at the shoulder. The largest recorded wild male weighed 751 kg (1,656 lb), and had a hind foot measurement of 46 cm (18 in). A large male Kodiak bear stands up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) tall at the shoulder, when it is standing on all four legs. When standing fully upright on its hind legs, a large male could reach a height of 3 m (9.8 ft).
@@ShadowMudkip123 It's as clear as day guys. His friend was simply riding the 1,200lb, 11ft brown bear rodeo style while Remi kept juking out of the way like a professional boxer. Just your everyday, standard bear attack.
A college friend of mine got that tattoo. I'm from Minnesota. He staggered out into the woods at a kegger and ran into a young bear. He thought it was some guy puking. As he goes to help him (he's hammered too) this bear rears up and claws the shit out of he's chest and back. Luckily people hear him yelling; come to the rescue and the bear runs off. He's got some gnarly scars from that. Think I'd rather just get a normal tattoo.
i've got very little sympathy for a hunter who gets killed by the game he is hunting. I have nothing against hunting, but humans have all the advantages (GUNS). so if a bear out hunts the hunter, good for him that's nature. kill or be killed
eric nortan the adrenaline rush a bear gets when defending its cubs is incomparable. They can literally take 7 shotgun shots to the skull and still takeout the shooter
Check out the story of Gene Moe. In his sixties, he was attacked by a Kodiak, and all he had to defend himself was a Buck knife. The bear now hangs on his wall.
I owned and operated a firearms and archery shop in Port Angeles, WA from 1978-1988. While it wasn't especially profitable in that small town locale, it kept me in beans and it provided many an entertaining conversation with colorful and interesting characters among my clientele. I watched this interview with Remi Warren, then watched the one with Steven Rinella on the same topic. Both guys mentioned how the bear came in while the group of hunters were preoccupied with having lunch. It reminded me of a story told by a doctor who'd retired to the Olympic Peninsula after having spent his career in panhandle Alaska--at Ketchikan if I remember correctly. The doctor told me about a bear attack incident he had attended as an emergency room staffer. It illustrates the sheer power of the bears. While I have lost some details of the story over more than three decades, two significant ones have stuck with me. First, the victim was one of a pair of loggers sitting on a downed log while eating their lunch sandwiches. Timber fellers through at least the first half of the 20th century did not typically wear hearing protection on the job. Thus, their hearing was doubtlessly little better than that of a World War 2 machine gunner (my late father was one of those). While eating their lunch, the pair never heard the grizzly approaching from behind. The first they knew of its presence was when the bear bit down on one logger's left shoulder. I can't recall why the bear let go, other than perhaps being startled when yelled at by the logger's partner. The second detail that I do remember is the doctor saying that he could look down into the wound and see the logger's heart beating as a result of that single bite.
I've been hunting on Afognak Island, and he is spot on with describing how it is there concerning the bears and the elk. I've seen the heard of Roosevelt elk there and it is pretty amazing, they are big! I have one of their skulls mounted on my wall. I live on Kodiak Island and I've seen a lot of bears here, and the biggest bear I have ever seen was on Afognak Island. I heard about this attack, but never heard the story. He's very lucky!
A few years back there was a really big one very near the Laura lake cabin, 3 375 H&H shells fit in the bottom of the track. I did get a real good wiff of him, and that brush is thick, on your toes time for sure. we reapaired the Cabin for the tribe, some outsiders left food inside--- well a person who lives on Kodiak knows what happened.
I worked on Afognak years ago. When I was alone I always swam out to a shipwreck in the ocean to relax so I could see anything coming. Though mostly docile those bears are no joke.

Interesting. I have had a similar experience while bowhunting elk in the Rockies. Four of us were blood-trailing the elk my partner had arrowed when we bumped three spikers. Of course we started cow calling and "played" them for a few minutes before they bolted. We figured they had winded us so as we gathered back together getting ready to resume the search a beautiful silver tipped sow charged up the hill at full tilt directly at me, eyes locked. I first saw her at about fifty yards. I started screaming, waving my arms and trying to get my bear spray out of the holster. She was on us before I could get to the spray. We all instantly started yelling and making big. The bear stopped at FOUR paces, stood up and kind of counted us, she definitely looked bewildered. I'll never forget seeing all the hair on her face and neck standing straight on end and shimmering... absolutely beautiful and terrifying at the same time. No one hit the grizzly with a walking pole but someone bounced a fist sized rock off its chest and someone else threw a branch at her while the only guy with a firearm tried desperately to get it off his pack. The bear retreated about twenty yards and took a second and then a third charge at us stopping each time a little further away. Mean while, I was screaming "shoot the fucking thing" at buddy who did indeed fire a warning shot on the third charge. We figured it had found the elk or was on the blood trail and figured I was lunch... that bear's intention on the initial charge was absolutely focused on lunch! So, yeah we hit it with sticks and rocks, no one got knocked off their feet and onto the bear's back but I can attest that shit can happen faster than imaginable and that the whole experience does seem surreal. Anyone that has had a close encounter would hear the truth in that guys story.
No that was a defensive charge IMHO. extremely rare for Grizz to execute a predatory charge. But it can happen. Northern Black bears who actually hibernate are the absolute worst for actually determining you are lunch. Most of lower 48 better be more concerned about cats especially since idiot states don't allow persuit or hunting much any more.
Years ago, I was swamping on a pipe rig delivering piping to a facility waaaay out in the bush of Northen BC, Canada. When we arrived at the site, the driver and I had to go through an hour safety orientation before being allowed to work on the site, which was standard for any oil rig. One of the safety concerns was a grizzly that had been hanging around for a few days, sniffing around for food. Because we were so far into the bush, camps that are set up have incinerators to burn their trash instead of having garbage containers. It's safer, but that smell travels. Another thing to be known about a "site" is that the bush and tress are cleared in a square around the facility, about 100yds in all directions so you can see any wildlife. Remember this, there are bear, moose, wolves and all sorts of wild critters out there. Anyways, we were told that if we saw a bear, first thing was to hit a "bear horn" and scare it off with noise. There were air horns attached to poles set up about 30ft apart throughout the facility. If that didn't work, we were supposed to use a "bear scare bang"(BSB) which were also attached to the poles. A BSB was a bottle rocket type firecracker that made a very loud whistle, then a bang, to scare off any animals that may show up. The guy told us to not aim the BSB directly at a bear to try to hit it, that would only piss the bear off. SO...we're unloading pipe and I've got my back to the bush when my driver stops lifting his end and whispers: Don't fucking move!! that bear is RIGHT behind you!! I think ya right! This guy was an old(67 yr old) bullshitter and a joker and I was about to laughingly tell him to fuck off, when I saw his face. FUCK!! I slowly turn to look around and about 100ft behind me, standing on its hind legs, nose pointed waaaay up, sniffing the air was a really, really, really fucking huge unit of a grizzly bear! The first thing I noticed was its paws. I'm a big guy, and if you put BOTH of my hands together, thumb to thumb, they were about half the size of one of its paws. Tex whispers: don't fucking run!! I whisper back: Why? All I gotta do is run faster than you!! Tex freaks: Don't fuck around! What the fucks wrong with you?! Just then, somebody hit a bear horn and the bear ran back into the bush. That thing was at least 10ft tall. I'll never forget that. Not to mention getting attacked by a rutting bull moose while driving back from the site, but that's a story for another time.
@@CoachShellyGiggey FYI? Boats won't help...grizzlies can swim..lol. BC is a beautiful place. Highly reccomend you check it out! Thanks for the comment! Peace.
One time I was hiking and I heard "Jamie pull that up." and I looked over and Joe Rogan was charging at me in a bear suit, I tried to run but he was catching up quick, he grabbed and punched me and went "OOOHH DEVASTATING LEFT HOOK" I was in a panic at this point and then Khabib Nurmagomedov comes out of nowhere and beats the ever loving shit out of Joe because he thought it was an actual bear, and Joe screamed "OOOHHH I'M HURT, I'M IN SERIOUS TROUBLE" I was never the same after that day, I go to therapy every week, everyday I think about what happened and I get more and more confused.
What Joe was talking about at 3:10 was exactly my Ranger School experience. It was and will continue to be the worst thing I’ve ever done in my life, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Recently read a story about a grizzly attack that haooened in Alaska years ago. Three men, all armed. One with a 40 caliber, the other two with shot guns. Guy with 40 cal fired 11 shots, the other two 5 shots each. Bear finally went down about 3 feet from them. 21 shots from three men to take it down! Those things are no joke!
I was raspberry picking in Colorado once when I was about 15 and met two black bear cubs in this weird Grove nearest to where the town was. They were about 25ft away and 10/10 cute and cuddly. I immediately turned around and left and they followed after me for a bit until I fully ran. They were cute, but I was not trying to run into mom lol
My dad was charged by bear after his kill. He had to shoot it before it got him.(his words.) A different time he was tracking a wounded elk through the brush he had shot. When he found the elk a bear came in and grabbed the elk and ran off with it. My dad just left in the other direction. I wouldn't say these were as dynamic but definitely bears are Wiley animals that are not afraid of humans.
Telling a story and telling a story well goes back as far as the cave paintings in Indonesia. A skill passed down through the ages... however the skill didn't go to everyone.
My uncle went on a guided bear hunt years ago and one of the guys shot one about 3 days into the hunt. She ran away and they tracked her for hours but they had to set up camp as it was getting dark. They made a fire and set their tents around it and went to bed. My uncle heard a limb crack and rolled over to see her shadow between the fire and his tent. He grabbed his rifle as she came through his tent shoving the gun stock in her mouth to keep her from biting him. The other hunters awoke to him screaming and shot her multiple times before killing her. The next morning they heard a weird sound and discovered her cub in the woods near their camp. My uncle said they didn't know she had a cub or they never would have shot her. Needless to say this was his first and last bear hunt.
Bear hunts are all about ego. Who wants worm riddled bear meat? Tought chewey tasteless (unless boiled in fat lol) trash. Not to mention the bears are more sentient than elk or deer in most peoples eyes
@@elijahjohnston3172 Bear meat is incredibly good If you didn't like it you didn't cook it good. And bear is perfectly fine to eat when prepared properly.
"The bear was expecting 1 thing to kill and got 6 instead, so it tried to kill everything at once" That kind of instinct is what puts them at the top; below humans of course.
Spoon Fed I wouldn’t say its simply that. Numbers play a major role. One guy with a bow or a spear vs a fully grown grizzly is gonna get torn to pieces if he makes a single mistake, but a group of 5 or more dudes would easily come out on top even with primitive tools.
@Spoon Fed your smoking rocks if you think a wooden spear makes a human more dangerous than a grizzly bear maybe more dangerous than a care bear you have to shoot a bear I the right spot with a high Calibur rifle to drop one guarantee the bear kills the human at least 80% of the time hunting the bear with a spear lol I would of said a bow and arrow would be better odds then a spear to kill the bear and survive
I’m from alberta right outside of banff, bears have been a part of us forever, keep food covered and don’t have anything out that will attract and your usually ok. Always hike with other people as well. A guy I worked with got in between a grizzly and her cubs, she bit his head threw him on the ground and bit both his knees and ran off. I always tell him, if she would’ve swiped her 6 inch claw would rip your guts out. Her cubs being there and her wanting to get in get out saved his life. If she was alone she would’ve killed him. People underestimate them. They run SO fucking fast
I was driving in The Natchez Trace in Southern Tennessee. Full moon, tiny Sonic Car, see deer crossing. 149 miles of dense forest. As I saw the deer, I looked to the passenger side, a Black bear as big as the car, was running as fast as the car beside me. I remember seeing its flowing black fur shining in the moonlight. "That is a fucking bear!!!!" Damn the deer, I gunned it. Yes I was safe and still am. Never gonna do that again.
I have heard this story from each of the guys that were there in different formats and I come back to hear it any time it pops up in my feed.. My favorite bear story of all time.
You are going into a remote area where the largest brown bears in the world are and everyone doesn't keep a gun on them at all time? That doesn't make sense. Hunters are smarter than that.
In many cases bear spray is the much more effective form of defense, which most of them had. Like he said, they hadnt seen a bunch of bears and got complacent, which is a dangerous thing to do in the back country, but it happens. I mean every day we drive around in high speed death traps and people still get complacent and don't buckle up. They definitely knew better, he admitted that much, but they were still hunting in a dangerous place and it's an inherent risk no matter how prepared you are
The bear was coming right at me and was only a few feet away! I quickly opened my jacket wide and that 100 mph wind just took me up in the air about 40 feet! I grabbed a branch and spent the night in that tree. Phew!
I once confused a bear by asking...”Mr Bear, how do you personally reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics.” The bear stopped in its tracks.
OK, there are wild animals that I know I can comprehend what their intentions are, except for bears. You cannot trust bears at all. They don't betray their intentions much, if at all. Bears will effing kill you. Flat out, bears will kill you without any question at all. I do not trust bears at all and I've had bear encounters before. The first one was hunting with my Aniyunwiya Grandfather. We both heard this sound of something rooting around in a creek about 100 feet or so from us, but it was dark and we couldn't see it. I asked my Grandfather what it was and he told me that it was probably a hog that had gotten loose. When we got home that night he told me that it was a bear for sure. I asked him why he didn't tell me that then and he said he didn't want me to be scared. The next day we went there and looked and yep, there were bear tracks all over the place. My Grandfather had a .22 rifle and I had the same caliber rifle, so that would only piss off the bear and certainly wouldn't kill it, not even close. So, we just got lucky. My Grandfather said that part of why we got lucky is that my Native name is Bear on the Left and so, I'm a brother to bears and that's part of why we got lucky. According to him anyway. For me, YIKES! BEARS!!!!!!
As you can see, Bear is my last name, I have no intentions of seeing if that saves me. Also, a .22 will save you from a bear attack. Always go into the woods with someone else, when you run into a bear, or any animal that wants to eat you for that matter, shoot the other person in the knee and run! It really increases your chances at survival!
yeah man. as scary as bears are tho, i feel like it's not that bears are psycho killers that might snap at any moment, but that bears are way more intelligent than people give them credit for. they're the most intelligent mammal native to north america, by a long shot, WAY smarter than dogs or other apex predators like big cats. but most people don't understand their rules, priorities, or how they think at all. like in this video's story...of course the bear went into murder mode, they were having a damn picnic at an elk carcass like it's all good. in the bear's mind he already decided that's his food, and now they're claiming it and threatening his food source. to the bear that's like the ultimate middle finger. this is taking place during a time where the bear's survival is dependent on being able to hunt enough food to survive the winter and in his mind they're stealing his food. people just gotta treat bears with the massive amount of respect they deserve and understand why they do what they do. should think about it like there's a group of giants living in the woods in their own society with their own rules...if you're gonna go in their territory then understand the rules because you're subject to those rules and will suffer the consequences if you step out of line.
I'd give em some benefit of the doubt on those points but he does say he saw the bear from 30 yards out locking eyes with him to saying you couldn't see beyond 8 feet because of the shrubs. Adrenalin is a helluva drug.
My grandpa was hunting in colorado a long time ago with his friends, he was walking a trail and didn’t realize that he got between a mama and her cubs, he recalls that he heard the cubs and then heard the mom barreling towards him on his left, he said he had his 357, but it wasn’t enough to stop a mama bear protecting her cubs, luckily the cubs ran out from behind him and over to the mom, that’s what stopped her from attacking him
I was hiking the long trail late September into october started in north adams Mass was almost a week into my hike and i ran across a bull moose ontop of a mountain in Vermont. I was making a solo trip of it just enjoying company i met along the way. I stopped because i heard a large expulsion of air and running into black bears in the past i knew it was a large animal. I got behind a big tree and looked around. I looked a bull moose in the eye and its velvet was coming off scared the shit right out of me. Stomped its feet anf let out these puffs of air you could feel. It finaly ran off and i watched the woods move out of its way. Never been that humbled
I actually spoke to this bear and he said this is not how it happened at all.
"...it's a weird experience," he said, of being attacked by the largest land dwelling apex predator in the Americas.

The trapper on the adjoining line to ours was a 70-something-old native gentleman who taught me a lot about trapping and nature in general. He lived on his line year-round in a log cabin. He had a husky cross dog that weighed around 100 pounds. once when he went to town for supplies and came back to his dog mauled. When we met him after the incident he showed us the dog. The dog's face was Frankenstiened back together and his body had stitches all over. All done by him in the bush as vets at that time were few and far between. He was so proud of his dog as the grizzly never got into his cabin. The dog still waged his tail and loved to be petted and lived on the line for many more years.

Big difference between the blacks and grizzlies, here in WA there are black bears everywhere, we've got tons of hikers and people going out to the mountains all the time, like there are millions of people in the Seattle urban area and there are mountains right nearby just swarming with black bears. Literally only one person has been killed by a black bear in this state in 1974, and since 1970 there have been only 19 attacks, that's 52 years and there's only been more people coming in progressively but the attacks aren't increasing, it's a damn peace treaty up here.
Meanwhile Grizzly bears inhabit the most isolated and rugged parts of the US, including Alaska. Yet somehow there are way more attacks and certainly way more fatal attacks. I mean Montana, Wyoming, Idaho is literally almost all wilderness just small towns and barely any small cities, and yet there are still attacks all the time, aggressive and fatal attacks. Technically nationwide there are more black bear attacks, (maybe because they live in basically almost every state and near all of the major population centers) but the amount of Grizzly attacks for living in only 4 states and those states being the most isolated?? Jesus no wonder they were hunted to damn near extinction

I eventually had the bear in a toe hold as he winced in pain i saw my chance then switched position and fell into a perfect rear naked choke that I had learned from Rickson Gracie the bear slowly lost consciousness then passed out. I thought I had killed him which greatly saddened me as i was considering cpr as he woke up, looked at me with respect mixed with fear and admiration he walked back into the woods and took a shit.

Not going to say if that part about riding the bear is true or false but he said that he saw the bear take someone away so he asked for a count, everyone shouted back except for one person he asks who's missing and then the guy who rode away on the bear came up from the brush, so I would assume that he fell off in the thick brush and the bear was too panicked to turn back for him

The largest verified size for a captive Kodiak bear was for a specimen that lived at the Dakota Zoo in Bismarck, North Dakota. Nicknamed "Clyde," he weighed 966 kg (2,130 lb) when he died in June 1987 at the age of 22. According to zoo director Terry Lincoln, Clyde probably weighed close to 1,089 kg (2,400 lb) a year earlier. He still had a fat layer of 9 in (23 cm) when he died. Also, an individual named Teddy, which portrayed a killer bear in the movie Grizzly, stood 3.4 metres (11 ft) tall on hind legs and was the largest bear in captivity at the time.
Otherwise An average adult male measures 244 cm (8 ft 0 in) in length, and stands 133 cm (4 ft 4 in) tall at the shoulder. The largest recorded wild male weighed 751 kg (1,656 lb), and had a hind foot measurement of 46 cm (18 in). A large male Kodiak bear stands up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) tall at the shoulder, when it is standing on all four legs. When standing fully upright on its hind legs, a large male could reach a height of 3 m (9.8 ft).

I owned and operated a firearms and archery shop in Port Angeles, WA from 1978-1988. While it wasn't especially profitable in that small town locale, it kept me in beans and it provided many an entertaining conversation with colorful and interesting characters among my clientele.
I watched this interview with Remi Warren, then watched the one with Steven Rinella on the same topic. Both guys mentioned how the bear came in while the group of hunters were preoccupied with having lunch. It reminded me of a story told by a doctor who'd retired to the Olympic Peninsula after having spent his career in panhandle Alaska--at Ketchikan if I remember correctly.
The doctor told me about a bear attack incident he had attended as an emergency room staffer. It illustrates the sheer power of the bears. While I have lost some details of the story over more than three decades, two significant ones have stuck with me. First, the victim was one of a pair of loggers sitting on a downed log while eating their lunch sandwiches. Timber fellers through at least the first half of the 20th century did not typically wear hearing protection on the job. Thus, their hearing was doubtlessly little better than that of a World War 2 machine gunner (my late father was one of those). While eating their lunch, the pair never heard the grizzly approaching from behind. The first they knew of its presence was when the bear bit down on one logger's left shoulder. I can't recall why the bear let go, other than perhaps being startled when yelled at by the logger's partner. The second detail that I do remember is the doctor saying that he could look down into the wound and see the logger's heart beating as a result of that single bite.

I've been hunting on Afognak Island, and he is spot on with describing how it is there concerning the bears and the elk. I've seen the heard of Roosevelt elk there and it is pretty amazing, they are big! I have one of their skulls mounted on my wall. I live on Kodiak Island and I've seen a lot of bears here, and the biggest bear I have ever seen was on Afognak Island. I heard about this attack, but never heard the story. He's very lucky!
Larger than the Kodiak bear?
That's impressive!
A few years back there was a really big one very near the Laura lake cabin, 3 375 H&H shells fit in the bottom of the track. I did get a real good wiff of him, and that brush is thick, on your toes time for sure. we reapaired the Cabin for the tribe, some outsiders left food inside--- well a person who lives on Kodiak knows what happened.

@@memesarentfunny2248 Oh, the simpleton is back trying her hardest to demonstrate she was not upset with my reply...hahahahaha, fool. Once again you use your time to stir shit, go for it simpleton, I'll come back each time you reply.
Boy was your irresponsible ass triggered, your first b.s, ,yes, b.s. is more evidence you are a pansy little child. Couldn't handle the sister wife thing, hahaha....pull that trigger girlfriend...hahahahaha.
Your second b.s. was even more embarrassing for you, talk about a preschool mentality, you have cornered the market there, bet that takes quite a bit of practice for you.
You are one of those obsessive compulsive freaks, aren't you....yep, you sure are.
Now when you are meeting with your psychiatrist make sure you work o that OCD, you may think you have it cured after 10 years but it is clearly evident you are still a sick puppy girly boy.
Your reply was such a beautiful display of someone being triggered, lets see how the next one pans out...sissy girl boy.
By the way, your sister/wife/mother just left,, they want you to meet them at the all male review, they realize it is a boys only thing but your wife wants to see what it is which is consuming most of your time, she thinks it is your boyfriend Alexander or Fritzy so be prepared.

Did you know that if you ride a 1000lb bear your body actually releases chemicals to give you a DMT trip
Lolll
Interesting. I have had a similar experience while bowhunting elk in the Rockies. Four of us were blood-trailing the elk my partner had arrowed when we bumped three spikers. Of course we started cow calling and "played" them for a few minutes before they bolted. We figured they had winded us so as we gathered back together getting ready to resume the search a beautiful silver tipped sow charged up the hill at full tilt directly at me, eyes locked. I first saw her at about fifty yards. I started screaming, waving my arms and trying to get my bear spray out of the holster. She was on us before I could get to the spray. We all instantly started yelling and making big. The bear stopped at FOUR paces, stood up and kind of counted us, she definitely looked bewildered. I'll never forget seeing all the hair on her face and neck standing straight on end and shimmering... absolutely beautiful and terrifying at the same time. No one hit the grizzly with a walking pole but someone bounced a fist sized rock off its chest and someone else threw a branch at her while the only guy with a firearm tried desperately to get it off his pack. The bear retreated about twenty yards and took a second and then a third charge at us stopping each time a little further away. Mean while, I was screaming "shoot the fucking thing" at buddy who did indeed fire a warning shot on the third charge. We figured it had found the elk or was on the blood trail and figured I was lunch... that bear's intention on the initial charge was absolutely focused on lunch! So, yeah we hit it with sticks and rocks, no one got knocked off their feet and onto the bear's back but I can attest that shit can happen faster than imaginable and that the whole experience does seem surreal. Anyone that has had a close encounter would hear the truth in that guys story.
No that was a defensive charge IMHO. extremely rare for Grizz to execute a predatory charge. But it can happen. Northern Black bears who actually hibernate are the absolute worst for actually determining you are lunch. Most of lower 48 better be more concerned about cats especially since idiot states don't allow persuit or hunting much any more.
Years ago, I was swamping on a pipe rig delivering piping to a facility waaaay out in the bush of Northen BC, Canada.
When we arrived at the site, the driver and I had to go through an hour safety orientation before being allowed to work on the site, which was standard for any oil rig. One of the safety concerns was a grizzly that had been hanging around for a few days, sniffing around for food. Because we were so far into the bush, camps that are set up have incinerators to burn their trash instead of having garbage containers. It's safer, but that smell travels.
Another thing to be known about a "site" is that the bush and tress are cleared in a square around the facility, about 100yds in all directions so you can see any wildlife. Remember this, there are bear, moose, wolves and all sorts of wild critters out there.
Anyways, we were told that if we saw a bear, first thing was to hit a "bear horn" and scare it off with noise. There were air horns attached to poles set up about 30ft apart throughout the facility. If that didn't work, we were supposed to use a "bear scare bang"(BSB) which were also attached to the poles. A BSB was a bottle rocket type firecracker that made a very loud whistle, then a bang, to scare off any animals that may show up. The guy told us to not aim the BSB directly at a bear to try to hit it, that would only piss the bear off.
SO...we're unloading pipe and I've got my back to the bush when my driver stops lifting his end and whispers: Don't fucking move!! that bear is RIGHT behind you!! I think ya right! This guy was an old(67 yr old) bullshitter and a joker and I was about to laughingly tell him to fuck off, when I saw his face. FUCK!!
I slowly turn to look around and about 100ft behind me, standing on its hind legs, nose pointed waaaay up, sniffing the air was a really, really, really fucking huge unit of a grizzly bear!
The first thing I noticed was its paws. I'm a big guy, and if you put BOTH of my hands together, thumb to thumb, they were about half the size of one of its paws.
Tex whispers: don't fucking run!!
I whisper back: Why? All I gotta do is run faster than you!!
Tex freaks: Don't fuck around! What the fucks wrong with you?!
Just then, somebody hit a bear horn and the bear ran back into the bush.
That thing was at least 10ft tall. I'll never forget that.
Not to mention getting attacked by a rutting bull moose while driving back from the site, but that's a story for another time.
GEEZus Murphy!
BC is in my future but I'm not fooling myself, I won't go looking for them, unless I'm on a boat tour, ON the water.
@@CoachShellyGiggey FYI? Boats won't help...grizzlies can swim..lol. BC is a beautiful place. Highly reccomend you check it out! Thanks for the comment! Peace.
One time I was hiking and I heard "Jamie pull that up." and I looked over and Joe Rogan was charging at me in a bear suit, I tried to run but he was catching up quick, he grabbed and punched me and went "OOOHH DEVASTATING LEFT HOOK" I was in a panic at this point and then Khabib Nurmagomedov comes out of nowhere and beats the ever loving shit out of Joe because he thought it was an actual bear, and Joe screamed "OOOHHH I'M HURT, I'M IN SERIOUS TROUBLE" I was never the same after that day, I go to therapy every week, everyday I think about what happened and I get more and more confused.
Have you tried dmt
Lmao
This comment is a wild ride.
That first sentence 😂😂
Joe Rogan has got to have the greatest comment sections of all channels
What Joe was talking about at 3:10 was exactly my Ranger School experience. It was and will continue to be the worst thing I’ve ever done in my life, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Crawl, Walk, Run
Best bear story ever! His insight to what the bear was thinking was hilarious yet almost definitely true
Recently read a story about a grizzly attack that haooened in Alaska years ago. Three men, all armed. One with a 40 caliber, the other two with shot guns. Guy with 40 cal fired 11 shots, the other two 5 shots each. Bear finally went down about 3 feet from them. 21 shots from three men to take it down! Those things are no joke!
Only 3 shots actually hit Yogi. Lol
What was the 40 caliber?
The three charges sounded absolutely horrifying
I was raspberry picking in Colorado once when I was about 15 and met two black bear cubs in this weird Grove nearest to where the town was. They were about 25ft away and 10/10 cute and cuddly. I immediately turned around and left and they followed after me for a bit until I fully ran.
They were cute, but I was not trying to run into mom lol
You were smart to do that.
I still can’t get over the fact that a guy rode a giant angry bear down a mountain.
Milla Jovovich could do it. 😊
Because it never happened
Friggin crazy story.. So glad all these men got out of that with such a great story to tell.
I guess that's one way to "ride bear back".
Paul best comment
My dad was charged by bear after his kill. He had to shoot it before it got him.(his words.) A different time he was tracking a wounded elk through the brush he had shot. When he found the elk a bear came in and grabbed the elk and ran off with it. My dad just left in the other direction. I wouldn't say these were as dynamic but definitely bears are Wiley animals that are not afraid of humans.
When they're hungry get out.
Telling a story and telling a story well goes back as far as the cave paintings in Indonesia. A skill passed down through the ages... however the skill didn't go to everyone.
My uncle went on a guided bear hunt years ago and one of the guys shot one about 3 days into the hunt. She ran away and they tracked her for hours but they had to set up camp as it was getting dark. They made a fire and set their tents around it and went to bed. My uncle heard a limb crack and rolled over to see her shadow between the fire and his tent. He grabbed his rifle as she came through his tent shoving the gun stock in her mouth to keep her from biting him. The other hunters awoke to him screaming and shot her multiple times before killing her. The next morning they heard a weird sound and discovered her cub in the woods near their camp. My uncle said they didn't know she had a cub or they never would have shot her. Needless to say this was his first and last bear hunt.
i mean this is why hunters dont generally shoot females.
Wish the bear got some of them lol
Bear hunts are all about ego. Who wants worm riddled bear meat? Tought chewey tasteless (unless boiled in fat lol) trash. Not to mention the bears are more sentient than elk or deer in most peoples eyes
@@elijahjohnston3172 Bear meat is incredibly good If you didn't like it you didn't cook it good. And bear is perfectly fine to eat when prepared properly.
Too bad the Bear did not eliminate the hunters.
Joe “but what if the bear was on DMT” Rogan
It could be entirely possible
Dude hitting the bear with a trekking pole is like trying to take out Joe Rogan with a chop stick
adrenaline, ever heard of it?
Probably very easily done.
The dude that rode the bear I would imagine has a hell of an angle to tell his story from. I really hope his friends call him "Cowboy" now.
Guy was probably wishing he had worn his spurs
Joe put on his little bow hat and long John for this guy. Total man crush
Joe is kinda building uoto going hand to hand combat with a bear
He is a now hunter lol
3:20
My experience with acid, every time.
Sinbad from Shazam A DIS Chanel Movie my experience when I took an eight of some potent ass shrooms 💀
thats the first thing I thought of when he was saying that, haha
hahahaha same dude
Yeah
Lmfaooooo
I feel bad for his friend who rode the bear, because when he tells that story, nobody is ever going to believe it
"The bear was expecting 1 thing to kill and got 6 instead, so it tried to kill everything at once"
That kind of instinct is what puts them at the top; below humans of course.
Jer Alan whenever technology fails we’re fucked lol
Spoon Fed I wouldn’t say its simply that. Numbers play a major role. One guy with a bow or a spear vs a fully grown grizzly is gonna get torn to pieces if he makes a single mistake, but a group of 5 or more dudes would easily come out on top even with primitive tools.
@Spoon Fed your smoking rocks if you think a wooden spear makes a human more dangerous than a grizzly bear maybe more dangerous than a care bear you have to shoot a bear I the right spot with a high Calibur rifle to drop one guarantee the bear kills the human at least 80% of the time hunting the bear with a spear lol I would of said a bow and arrow would be better odds then a spear to kill the bear and survive
Spoon Fed and if it doesnt kill it the bear is right in your face yeah no thanks
Humans are at the top of the food chain because of our mental capacity and the ability to think critically.
I’m from alberta right outside of banff, bears have been a part of us forever, keep food covered and don’t have anything out that will attract and your usually ok. Always hike with other people as well. A guy I worked with got in between a grizzly and her cubs, she bit his head threw him on the ground and bit both his knees and ran off. I always tell him, if she would’ve swiped her 6 inch claw would rip your guts out. Her cubs being there and her wanting to get in get out saved his life. If she was alone she would’ve killed him. People underestimate them. They run SO fucking fast
I was driving in The Natchez Trace in Southern Tennessee. Full moon, tiny Sonic Car, see deer crossing. 149 miles of dense forest. As I saw the deer, I looked to the passenger side, a Black bear as big as the car, was running as fast as the car beside me. I remember seeing its flowing black fur shining in the moonlight. "That is a fucking bear!!!!" Damn the deer, I gunned it. Yes I was safe and still am. Never gonna do that again.
I have heard this story from each of the guys that were there in different formats and I come back to hear it any time it pops up in my feed.. My favorite bear story of all time.
Yo I wanna hear the guy who rode its perspective, Ive heard rinella and this guy
This basically describes my cat when he's hungry. We finally cave in, open the food draw, then slowly back out the room.
🤣
This dude saw a bear and turned into an professional running back
Chicago here we come
WOW!!! Joe talks to a ton of amazing humans.. glad this dude and his hunting comrades survived!! what a STORY!!!
You are going into a remote area where the largest brown bears in the world are and everyone doesn't keep a gun on them at all time? That doesn't make sense. Hunters are smarter than that.
In many cases bear spray is the much more effective form of defense, which most of them had. Like he said, they hadnt seen a bunch of bears and got complacent, which is a dangerous thing to do in the back country, but it happens. I mean every day we drive around in high speed death traps and people still get complacent and don't buckle up. They definitely knew better, he admitted that much, but they were still hunting in a dangerous place and it's an inherent risk no matter how prepared you are
He said that he didn't want to be that guy that has to have a pistol on him all the time. Looks like they value pride over smarts.
neoberi yeah death is pretty valuable huh
Stats show that bear spray is 60% effective. A gun 90%.
Kat A. Yeah people gotta be careful with this bear spray stuff. It aint magic.
Tom Delonge vouched for this man, he's legit.
5:33 joe is really enjoying those bear facts😂😂
Why isnt anybody talking about the one guy that was just riding on the bears back like its another day in the office? :D
That bear is problematic, getting all entitled about it's special spot. Check your bear privilege, bear.
He had a bear card. 🤷🏻
That is the bears home...no entitlement.
How dare you say that about a bear of color. I bet your one of those polars!
The bear was coming right at me and was only a few feet away!
I quickly opened my jacket wide and that 100 mph wind just took me up in the air about 40 feet!
I grabbed a branch and spent the night in that tree. Phew!
Bears can climb trees faster than most Americans can climb the sidewalk.
@@ryanschmidt3913 only black bears
Bears can climb trees.
Fire comment lol.. the visual of it
People obviously have no imagination lol
I once confused a bear by asking...”Mr Bear, how do you personally reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics.” The bear stopped in its tracks.
I really respect the sense of control/respect these guys had in not shooting the bear after it charged multiple times.
Then told their trophy hunting chums how big the bear was and BANG...nice rug and bear head for the lodge
OK, there are wild animals that I know I can comprehend what their intentions are, except for bears. You cannot trust bears at all. They don't betray their intentions much, if at all. Bears will effing kill you. Flat out, bears will kill you without any question at all.
I do not trust bears at all and I've had bear encounters before. The first one was hunting with my Aniyunwiya Grandfather. We both heard this sound of something rooting around in a creek about 100 feet or so from us, but it was dark and we couldn't see it. I asked my Grandfather what it was and he told me that it was probably a hog that had gotten loose. When we got home that night he told me that it was a bear for sure. I asked him why he didn't tell me that then and he said he didn't want me to be scared. The next day we went there and looked and yep, there were bear tracks all over the place. My Grandfather had a .22 rifle and I had the same caliber rifle, so that would only piss off the bear and certainly wouldn't kill it, not even close. So, we just got lucky. My Grandfather said that part of why we got lucky is that my Native name is Bear on the Left and so, I'm a brother to bears and that's part of why we got lucky. According to him anyway. For me, YIKES! BEARS!!!!!!
As you can see, Bear is my last name, I have no intentions of seeing if that saves me. Also, a .22 will save you from a bear attack. Always go into the woods with someone else, when you run into a bear, or any animal that wants to eat you for that matter, shoot the other person in the knee and run! It really increases your chances at survival!
@@clint8130, that's excellent advice! LMAO!
yeah man. as scary as bears are tho, i feel like it's not that bears are psycho killers that might snap at any moment, but that bears are way more intelligent than people give them credit for. they're the most intelligent mammal native to north america, by a long shot, WAY smarter than dogs or other apex predators like big cats. but most people don't understand their rules, priorities, or how they think at all. like in this video's story...of course the bear went into murder mode, they were having a damn picnic at an elk carcass like it's all good. in the bear's mind he already decided that's his food, and now they're claiming it and threatening his food source. to the bear that's like the ultimate middle finger. this is taking place during a time where the bear's survival is dependent on being able to hunt enough food to survive the winter and in his mind they're stealing his food.
people just gotta treat bears with the massive amount of respect they deserve and understand why they do what they do. should think about it like there's a group of giants living in the woods in their own society with their own rules...if you're gonna go in their territory then understand the rules because you're subject to those rules and will suffer the consequences if you step out of line.
I believed all of this until he said his friend smacked it in the face and another ended up on its back.
y0Combo same
I'd give em some benefit of the doubt on those points but he does say he saw the bear from 30 yards out locking eyes with him to saying you couldn't see beyond 8 feet because of the shrubs. Adrenalin is a helluva drug.
Quit playing CoD and go out for once, go fuck with a bear. Theyre fucking stupid, and stranger shit happens every day
Theres around 6 hrs of each guy's version of what happened on the meat eater podcast, recorded very shortly after it happened
Charles Craziest damn story I’ve been heard. Those dudes were shaken up after that. No thank you. I’d need new pants.
00:22 is that red thing at the end of the table one of those himalayan salt lamps?
Yea
yes
Yup!!
You should be six years in the future; now every office, waiting room, cubicle... has one 😊

joe: *ejaculates*
😂
My grandpa was hunting in colorado a long time ago with his friends, he was walking a trail and didn’t realize that he got between a mama and her cubs, he recalls that he heard the cubs and then heard the mom barreling towards him on his left, he said he had his 357, but it wasn’t enough to stop a mama bear protecting her cubs, luckily the cubs ran out from behind him and over to the mom, that’s what stopped her from attacking him
Well ya pa pa lied son, mama don’t stop.😂😂😂
"We were sitting around having some sandwiches."
Lol
I was hiking the long trail late September into october started in north adams Mass was almost a week into my hike and i ran across a bull moose ontop of a mountain in Vermont. I was making a solo trip of it just enjoying company i met along the way. I stopped because i heard a large expulsion of air and running into black bears in the past i knew it was a large animal. I got behind a big tree and looked around. I looked a bull moose in the eye and its velvet was coming off scared the shit right out of me. Stomped its feet anf let out these puffs of air you could feel. It finaly ran off and i watched the woods move out of its way. Never been that humbled
You have to interview the bear next
