    A Romanian friend translates the moment when he starts skiing: "My dear friend, let's go for a race". This guy is very calm for having a bear chasing him. I bet he's skiing backwards too, since it would be very difficult to get this kind of footage facing the other way.

    • @PeteLeuenberger
      @PeteLeuenberger 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      You are probably right. But the bear does not know humans are not bear, and if you look at videos on how they play together...well basically, same result as if the bear was looking for food. Humans end up chopped. And then that may trigger hunger..oh blood, I can eat with something I played with..yay.

    I'm not a bear-ologist but that brown bear looks fairly Young and more curious than anything. It definitely doesn't look like it was being defensive or actively hunting the person. I think it's really important to note that this instructor was doing everything correctly. Keeping calm, keeping the attention of the bear and leading it away! I also love his commentary it was so sweet! Just because bears are very scary animals doesn't mean you need to say mean things to them so thanks for being nice to our bear! Merci❤️

      Not a Brown, a young grizzly. The bear ignores the other people and running not at top speed and looking around all over as it runs. It is just wants to race, playing.

    Brown Bears are similar to wolf's and humans. They are endurance hunters. This brown bear could have followed for hours waiting for this guy to get tired.
    This bear seemed to be actively hunting people... I hope it was trapped and relocated.

    Brown bears are an apex predator. Not taking this seriously is a mistake. The bear looks young and unsure if its approaching prey or threat. Bear's goal, pacing around in front to the right then back left, was to separate the pack and find the weak one. The instructor obliged, separating himself. Possibly the worse decision. With no group to defend him, he was one slip away from being lunch.

    • @SIX6SIXer
      @SIX6SIXer 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      bears are only classified as apex predators because they are not preyed upon by other animals.
      But they're not predators that hunt and kill to survive. They do fish trout and salmon out of the rivers, but bears mainly eat plants. They are omnivores and opportunistic scavengers.
      of course, polar bears are carnivores and apex predators but are classified as marine mammals.
      But brown and black bears are pretty solitary animals. Unless it's starving, or has it's cubs, or it gets startled, a bear usually won't attack humans.

    • @MikeOzmun
      @MikeOzmun 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Idk about this assessment. That bear was little more than a cub, and looking for someone to play with. Doesn't mean it isn't dangerous, but it wasn't looking to eat them.

      Bears don't always hibernate throughout the entire winter and since this bear is fairly Young it probably didn't build up enough fat to have a full hibernation.
