this guys quite the bullshitter lol

I'm so proud and impressed by you

4:55 I'd be thinking the same thing but I'd probably be doing it more than thinking it

Quite a guy.

Thank god it was only a black bear

This guy is lucky

Good video!

Cool story Bro!

Now why the hell hasn't the Discovery channel done a show on River Mike? Very knowledgeable and interesting guy. I hope his health get better.

Big Fish...

Simply amazing! What an interesting guy. 100% telling the truth

I think this guy is full of it

I think that bear took a $h!t somewhere around here, no wait that's in my pants.

damn, who asked

Adrenaline is a crazy thing ive only experienced it maybe once or twice but your mind becomes extremely focused on the threat its almost like the whole world around you stops and all that exist is you and the threat time goes by super slow and you think alot it only happens when your in a life or death situation its your Body's final stride to survive alot of the time you wont even feel pain during an Adrenaline rush you could lose an arm and not notice till you physically see its gone ive been smashed over the head by an excavator bucket not super huge but big the fuck enough anyways the moment it made contact the world got super super slow I felt the logo brand on the side of the bucket on the side of my face I literally read the letters by feeling it with my face all in half a second I did a full 360 spin stayed on my feet and everything every second felt like a minute and I felt 0 pain from the impact until like 5 mins later now that I think about it I got beat the fuck up that day at work I lost 4 finger tips previously before all that trying to move concrete chunks and got my fingers caught in between 2 pieces as I tried to lift 1 it peeled my finger tips clean off I wrapped them up with a paper towel and electrical tape then proceeded to go to the backyard to get my shit rocked...even after all that within about 30mins and taking that hit to the head I made sure I was okay and went straight back to work without even saying anything my boss didn't even know he hit me it took my co worker cursing him out for him to realize because I just went right back to digging I didn't go cry about it I made sure my head wasn't busted and moved along...one of the worst days I think I've actually experienced so far but I'm only 21 ive got alot to learn alot to experience my ride has only just begun

Great story. Thankfully you kept your cool.

good fart 🤣

He made everything perfekt to safe his live but i think also if it was a Grizzly with Cups he would be death for Sure. A rage Grizzly Mommy hade Kill him even with bear spray. Allways remember a Grizzly just need one Hit or one bite and its realy Hard to Surwife. And the Problem with Grizzlies is the Fakt that they just hold you with there bodyweight and start eaten you alife with full awareness. Im sry for my Bad englisch iam from germany. Im realy glatt that here dont life bears in this country

The shrill pheasant suprisingly intend because fender enthrallingly hope into a drab heron. craven, lazy quiet

Someone needs to send this man 3 or 4 pitbull pups

I need a smoke after just hearing about it!

I'm calling BS

That's why you always carry your weapon on you. Especially in the wilderness.

Why wouldnt he make a loop and keep the bear spray on his persons at all times? I would have that and a large sharp knife. You cant carry a rifle at all times but you can leave a canister of bear spray hanging off you. He almost met the maker that day.

Bet he has some amazing sasquatch stories

This is why we have youtube. Amazing story

I want to be River Mike when I grow up!

Bear spray Lol! Try a .338 win mag. What’s bear spray gonna do?

"What do you think about that?" I think it's an utter BULLSHIT story by an old man that ought to know better than to be leaving his rifle in a tent in near country. Cleaned himself up some good bacon with all that hogwash.

Shake the can of bear spray before use especially if old.

Had a bear chase me on a river in Colorado i turned to face it and raised.my hands high and roared he looked at me growled and started popping his jaws sounded like someone arch cupping your hands and popping em together in a clap and then it charged again, I knew right then if my ass didn't beat him in the race I was a deadman... well...I'm here writing this.

Wow amazing how much bears 🐻 have moves that are simple they can get you any day of the week it's all about if it's your lucky day or not

This guy sounds like Mark Laita

I woulda had to go change my pants

What a relief when he finally gets to the spray...epic until the end! Holy cow

Awesome

The best and most important part of the story was he stayed calm and didn't panic and the bear knew this

Holy shit

If i lived in the woods like that id have a pistol on my hip at all times you never know when its gonna go down

G Damn lier

What a beautiful animal ....thats probably gonna maul me and eat me alive.

The one that got away

I'm calling bull shit

I had to tap out I couldn't take it anymore

That he is here telling of the occurrence is a miracle. Me: hanging on every word he said......

This man's voice and way of speaking doesn't match his appearance at all. This could be one of the most terrifying stories I've ever heard!

Absolute bullshit, never happened, show me some proof.

Back 1971 I was scouting around the Yukon for mushrooms but before I did that I located the forestry center to log my presence when I was doing that the ranger then advised me sternly to be equipped with Hare Spray. That scared the bejesus outta me so just said “No No No” repeating that over and over as I slowly backed away, got in my jeep and hightailed er outta there never to return to the Tundra never again! I mean what in tarnation he’s talking about spraying rabbits 🐇

Here's a thought . He could have used his cigarette to light something around like dry tinder to create a torch. Might have scared off the bear.
