"I am now being eaten by the mother bear, who has had a change of heart. It is extremely unpleasant, but I understand her motivations. The two cubs are playfully watching. I will apparently not see the Super Bowl this year, but I feel certain the Eagles would have won. Then again, my thought processes are somewhat scattered at the moment......"
Haha😂 well structured joke my good man
That's funny :)
Yeah, James nailed it. Ha!
Brilliant! 😆
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
This man shoot the video HORIZONTALLY while stalked by BEARS !! Professional!
He probably used a dedicated camera.
@@MobileDecay yup
@Mountain Chief yeah sure mate bet you'll survive a bear chase
No excuse for everyone else
The bears are repairing the same pattern, fake
Walks backwards and bumps into papa bear
Papa bear wouldn't be around. Males take no part in raising their cubs and parenting is left entirely to the females.
@@jamesthomas1649 'course I do, mate. Let me ask you this: You wanna joke around or learn about bears?
@@GNWP67 no one wants to learn from you we just wants bants here. So St fu and stop killing the vibe please
@@Thawhid Bants aye? I'll give you some TOP NOTCH BANTER. Here we go: Have some fookin' respect for the bears you muppet.
LMFAO
Because of this video I learned I could hold my breath for a minute and 54 seconds.
they were following up to 1:54 seconds the rest of the video is filming from a distance
Lmao I was holding that shit for real
hahah me too...
johnkdbell
Ur so funny hahaha
LOL!!!!
How do you walk backwards with all that shit in your drawers.
serban masala omg😂
Grab a camera and find some bears. Draw their attention and you'll find out.
Touche`
It's a Close Encounter of the Turd Kind.
Gee thanks a lot, for making me spit-up beer all over my laptop from laughter...
- "Mama we can follow this guy?"
- "Yea why not, will fun"
Mama Bear told her club when we catch him the adrenaline should Rush up to his blood and it would give us a narcotic high when we eat his flesh I heard the eyeballs are delicacy and the kids say yay thank you Mama
nope, depends when they last ate .
This guy is the real MVP, he's in this situation and still has the decency of recording in landscape.
I think he needed to feel like he could talk to somebody
He's a dumbass that could let them go by
Video on BearTube: ... and this was the moment when a man appeared in front of us. Of course I was shocked and the kids trembled but we knew we had to behave as naturally as possible so we just continued walking as if he hadn't been there... We were hoping that he would leave our way at some point but he just kept on following our route.
Horrible adventure, believe me.
Sándor Gombai 😂😂😂
Kids/Cubs (Kuds ?) seem more curious than frightened, but that was fun to read ! ^^
Hahaha
LOL
That was a bit crazier than my Bear video! Geeze!
I am so glad you are still alive. This is one of the scariest videos I've ever seen.
USA what is so scary about bears going to the shore and having the same path as him?
1 fatal bear attack per year in north america
Its only scary if you make it in this situation
Why? A bunch of fluffy animals hiking. What's so scary about it?
💯 one of the scariest ever
Some say he is to this day, still walking backwards
Bobby Lee 😂😂
fake news, watch the end of the video!
Lol
Bobby Lee Good job
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mama bear to cubs: "See that guy over there? He's gonna give us free food if we follow him!"
"And if not, he will become food himself. Isn't the Nature well made ?"
bears cant talk stupid IDEOT!!!! u ar such STUPID!!!!!
Bieberhole69,
garretmastesron is brilliant. How many people do you know who can use telepathy on a video AND translate bear to English, and all while earning hundreds of thumbs-up, PLUS being funny to boot?
garretmastesron xD
see them tasty two legged "meals"!
LONGEST MOONWALK EVER !!!! MOST INTENSE , DANCING WITH THE BEARS
LMFAO!
This the funniest comment here
Lol
lililillililil lililillililil yea one fuck up and your dead 😂😂
LMFAO 😂
At least it wasn't a sea bear...
GERRELLEY or worse... a sea rhinoceros
yep, nothing alarming. just a mountain shark
That's not a circle, that's an oval!!
Tom Foolery You guys are the best
Denise good thing we're all wearing our sea rhinoceros undergarments right guys
Wow that footage was awesome. I'm glad that your ok. Stay safe
Trish King you do know it's fake
You're
Yea, that was one cool dude. It seemed like the cubs were his problem, they wanted to investigate, to play.
I don't think I would have stuck around to take that footage at the end. Kinda pressing his luck.
it cut be more interesting and dramatic if he got eat and record all the thing
Dylan Murphy you're appalled by his grammar? He made one simple mistake and you're appalled...damn. You must not get out much. There are far greater things to be "appalled " by in this world than someone on a random TH-cam comment section using the wrong form of a word.
That mama bear was surprisingly calm. She didn’t even see him as a threat.
That’s because if she wanted to destroy him, he would be done in like 5 seconds. And she knows that.
He wouldn't have saw her if she thought he was a threat
Momma bears don't play
Yeah I think he trained them well. 😂😂😂😂
@@ianlaswick9505 I'm pretty sure this bear wanted to be seen
It is on Katmai right? The bears are used to tourists. It's the safest place to watch bear up close. They are more interested in salmon. I wish to visit this place someday. For now I just watch them fishing salmon live on youtube
It's quite possible that the bear was using you as a shield from a nearby male, biologists have noted that some grizzly moms with cubs walk close to area frequented by humans because the know the smell will unnerve adult male bears, which are the main cause of death for cubs, it may also explain why she is constantly glancing back, looking for a predatory male.
*+Roundfrenchcheesey* So you're saying male bears are frightend by the scent of men?
Remind me again why i have to shower. I'm a natural bear repellent!
It seemed more like the cubs were leading the way.
DA MotoNeko
Bro just shower and stay fresh, because I'm pretty sure you will shat yourself if a male grizzly walk by you. That's the smell that bears are afraid of
Roundfrenchcheesey : Wow, thanks for the info. That's so interesting! 👍
Johan sigurdson you understand right that without any tools or weapons. A bear vs a man that the man stands no chance.
I was on a similar trail in Katmai several years ago when a mom and two cubs came close....my friend and I stepped off the trail, into the tall grass, and stood silently while the three bears went on by, not paying any attention to us. It seemed the smartest thing to do rather than continue on down the trail with them behind us.
Yeah, I see you as smarter than this guy. You're supposed to back up and stay still. But I guess this guy chose to be comfortable and not go inside some bushes, instead waiting for the bears to do so (which they never did). 🙂
@@Readysetgo2007 Stay still? So that the bear is really surprised once he notices you. Nah, I don't really thinks so but then again I have no idea. If it worked in that situation it must have been the right thing to do?
@@kingsamson9146 Maybe both methods work in this case. Good to keep distance of course. But I guess this guy's method prolongs the time you're scared. :P
"Oh guys, just give me a break will you" - I'll never hear this same phrase the same way ever again.
"If I keep walking backwards I might stumble, so I'll keep walking backwards."
Brilliant.
You obviously forgot the safety session where they tell you to step off the path and give the bears space.
Bears are much much much more likely to attack something with it's back turned to it. That's why he was walking backwards. It obviously worked. It's the same thing with big cats. Much less likely to come at you if they can see you're facing them.
How dare he say something illogical while being approached by a grizzly and her cubs! You sure showed him!
You cant turn your back on a bear you fucking idiot
It was brilliant, the second he turns his back he's done for.
Wow you handled that very well. Remaining calm and talking to yourself so you knew what you wanted to do and what you wanted to avoid doing. Well done sir!
According to the park rangers apparently he did NOT: This is at Brooks camp, that bear is actually well known and called Molly, she is used to human presence and the rules of the campground gives bears the right of way. What he should've done is slowly walk off the trail and let the bears pass.
If only Molly had hd the decency to introduce herself, he would have known that and not bothered walking backwards like an idiot. Thank you for your insight.
westmorelandroad it was not idiotic, but the correct thing to do. Pet or park fixture or not, it is still a wild and dangerous-to-humans animal.
@@supersaiyandrgnslayr let s relief that this wasnt grazer .
Yeah, I would have been too scared to not have unloaded into the bear and orphaned those cubs then felt bad about it afterward.
Man: Give me a break
Momma bear: leave the poor man alone
Bear cubs: IT'S A RACE!
Haha I read that in rowan Atkinsons voice
This is the part where I trip my buddy and run.
That works pretty well. Saved my ass four times already.
CureRage lol 😂
well we all have to die anyways, better not me today😅
This is the part you wished you had friends, or anyone who agree to come with you.
And then you would be dead
Legends say hes still walking backwards. His Phone Battery died shortly after he uploaded the video though.
Nope. he filme dthat earlier that day and uploaded it as bonus material shorty before his battery died.
That video was actually reversed in the video editor. In reality, he was following the bears and they were walking backwards - very camera shy! Fake Bear News!
Zeke's Spin Doctor 😂😂😂
Seeing the cubs playing together is adorable!! I love how most young animals share that trait with human children.
That's an amazing encouter you're lucky to experience it, and survive it...
CrateofStolenDirt 100%
I probably would've turned my phone off and stopped talking while backing away from them. I mean filming the encounter and doing voice over for it should be the very last thing you're worried about at that point in time.
What lovely animals. Not so lovely if they're hungry and fucking up shit.
1 fatal bear attack per year in North America
Joe McKim it's good to make noise. He probably should have talked a bit louder in the first place.
lol 0:59 "oh c'mon guys give me a break"
*gives him a break*
wonder why he was walking in place @1:44
Baby Bear "Mum whys that guy walking backward ". Mother bear " I don't know son lets follow him"
Nothing like a relaxing hike in the woods to get close to nature!
"Shit, too close, TOO CLOSE !!"
Yep!
That is the scariest thing I've ever seen! I'm surprised you kept it together enough to keep talking thru the recording. It kinda looked like you wanted documentation in case you didn't make it.
Nadine Heart my thoughts too!! He prob only managed to keep from panicking because he was forcing himself to talk through it, you know? Scary and impressive.
i got that impression too, i really felt for the guy when he stated the exact date he had arrived in the area, i immediately thought that the guy must be thinking "this might be the only chance my friends and family have to find out how i died"! gosh! must have been scary.
It supposedly helps if you make constant low noise so the bears don't have the chance to be startled by any movement of yours they didn't anticipate.
Yes, the talking is useful. But the "this is the first walk since I arrived on Friday, July 14th" sounds like a "message in a bottle" statement in case he gets killed. Glad he made it.
can he not turn his back and run faster?
The authorities say you should always wear a little bell and carry pepper spray in bear country.
You can tell the kind of bears by their poop. Black bear poop contains twigs and berries. Grizzly bear poop contains little bells and smells like pepper spray.
And human poop is all in his pants.
Or the massive size difference
Good one. You had me going there.
Pffft! That's hilarious man.
Hold on honey..I know we should be running a way from this massive monster but I have to smell its poop to determine what kind of bear it is.
This game has awesome graphics! Gotta be scary AF with a VR glass.
Press F to takedown bear.
That's Skyrim, with mods.
Max Arago lol
You Just GOT ROASTED you sir clearly didn't get the joke
I am surprised she didnt take a run at you. Probably showing the little ones how to stalk prey lol
CrateofStolenDirt prove it’s CGI. You can’t.
Chuck Beef nahh she was just claiming space i think... And she wasnt that agressive because she kept looking at the background and her mouth was open...
i'm not sure but i think the cubs wanted to play with the guy an the momma was just making sure they or he doesnt get to close
Chuck Beef no, they were just going to the shore and had the same path as him...
how is it "obvious"? please enlighten us
you were so LUCKY that bear mom was in a good mood. meeting bear mom with her cubs in the forest is quite a big risk. I would rather meet male/female bear by themselves than bear mom with cubs.
Adriana Kuzmikova Honestly though. There is a good reason humans have taken the term ‘mama bear’ for over protective mothers. They WILL kill you if they see you as a threat to their young.
This momma bear didn't feel threatened by this lone man , and because she probly seen him before he saw them she didn't attack him , she was just going the same way as the man
That mama is one massive, gorgeous bear. What a thrill once the terror subsided!!!!
You're supposed to go in the woods if they use the path. The rangers tell you that when you get there.
Then who will find you?
if the cubs chased him into the woods, he would have a harder time walking backwards because of branches and what not. Personally I think that he did the right thing - he also survived...so who cares
if this was a movie he definitely would have stumbled and then a park ranger would come out of the trees and ride the bear off into the sunset
@@aztec6535 shut up
😂
Legit sounds like an 'Old Spice' Commercial idea.
Did you have food in your back pack? They probably followed you because they smelled something yummy.
Mhm. Because usually momma isn't too far behind. The young of many species are cute, making it difficult to refrain from approaching. But it usually just ends up causing problems. Feed deer? Attract predators that hunt deer. Approach baby bear? Attract momma bear. Interacting with wildlife gets so sticky. I love the cute videos where humans and wild animals seem to work in harmony, but some of the negative consequences are just heartbreaking.
They were going to the beach, this is Brooks. The man recording the video is a fucktard who ignored the Park's rule, he's suppose to get off the trail as the bears have right of way. If a ranger saw this he would have kicked him outta the camp immediately.
"If I keep walking backwards, I don't want to stumble."
He stumbles and the theme from Seinfeld begins to play.
Legend says that this man is still walking backwards to this moment...
This is bear 435 known as Holly and her cubs that use the trail daily. The sow was on her way to the shore. The man was not following protocol, but decided to continue to walk backward instead of retreating off the trail as instructed jeopardizing the safety not only for himself but for the sow too. If he would have stumbled and fallen it could have spooked the cubs --- upsetting the sow --- turning this into a very dangerous situation. If the sow would have attacked, the sow would have been put down for sure just doing what she does everyday. End of story --- Holly and her cubs made it to the shore --- and this man got his video.
KT if only you had written some BS like damn nigga his ball sack the Goolag would have you pinned up high. Oh well it is still better to be intelligent than to pander to the Goolag.
I don't think it was a video he was seeking.
Seeing a few well-written sentences on the internetz can really throw ya off, huh? 😜
...damnit...there's always the next video...
Pretty proud at muhself...this is my big moment!!
Jesus fuck man
Blasphemy & profanity are both sins. Repent & be forgiven.
Faith & Action I was certain this was a joke until I saw your channel name and your videos... facepalm..
+vipSAM Yeah man, sin is serious. Even though this generation drinks it in like water. Read the Bible & learn about it in order to be saved. Jesus Christ died for your sins & people want to use his Holy Name as a cuss word. It shows how depraved this generation is.
+vipSAM Your comment should be a check to your conscience & the fact that you live in a world that thinks righteousness is a joke & that sin is funny.
stfu
I love the way she looked at you at the end :D congrats on surviving!
'I am a simple bear i see a cam and i follow it'
Now that they're in front of you... Follow them... see how they like it.
laenaszone 😂 yes
LOL!!
I actually laughed, that's good
😅😅😅 🐻
He did just the right thing. He stayed calm, didn't turn his back on them, kept talking softly to keep himself and them calm. If he had turned off they still may have followed him except he wouldn't be headed to the shelter he was using AND could have gotten lost. Usually when people hike alone they let someone know their route and expected time of return or post it on the log at the trail head. If he had taken another route and got injured it would have been harder to find him. If he stepped off the trail and stood still hoping they would pass, the curious cubs would have examined him and any motion of his might have been seen as a possible threat and inspired a warning or attack by mom. I hope I hold it together and take the best course of action as well as he did if I'm ever in a similar situation. Very well done sir !
This video is a slap in the face of Katmai National Park and all the Rangers that do an amazing job keeping everyone safe including the bears. Everyone is sent to Bear School immediately getting off the plane. VISITORS are taught, bears have THE RIGHT OF WAY ALWAYS. This person that shared this video showing his total lack of respect for Katmai and the bears. (by the way he's very lucky this was Holly, one of the sweetest well known bears there) He should be made an example for his ignorance and FINED big. This angers me as I know how hard the Rangers work to keep everyone safe. Katmai National Park is a safe place but there are rules for everyone to follow.
You have no evidence of that. And if the guy would have left the trail, he would have endangered himself (and in doing that, the bears).
Do not fucking assume anything that you have no proof of.
Jean Brewer Fine? For hiking in a forest? Fuck outta with that BS.
+Jean Brewer
You seem like a lot of stupid in just one guy.
Everything you say is correct. The guy filming this is in the wrong completely.
Thanks for your comment which actually adds something to the debate! However, I think anyone can be forgiven for forgetting that advice in a situation like this. It truly would take serious guts and presence of mind to step off the trail and let the bears come closer, if you seem to be doing a good job of keeping them at a reasonable distance. I guess none of use know how we'd react. Anything that isn't curling into a shivering ball on the ground, or running is to be admired in my opinion!
She was just walking the kids to school.
Who'da thought she'd get a play-by-play guy for her morning routine?
You really kept your composure! Way to stay alive and not panic. My heart would be out of my chest...
"Aw, c'mon guys, gimme a break...!"
Lol! YOU are my spirit animal.
If you encounter a bear in the woods-- stop. Make eye contact. Shake their paw firmly. They'll respect you and then you can both get about your business.
You are extremely lucky, so lucky it's unbelievable, one of the most dangerous things you can encounter in the wild is a mother bear with cubs. very few people walk away unharmed from an encounter like this
Well it seems to me? They weren't following you.. They were just headed The Same Way... LOLOLOL!!! They Probably Walk That Trail all the time when no ones around... LOLOL!!!
LOL u r right!!!
I've seen the same thing with women speeding up in front of me at night. It's mildly entertaining.
Tactical Lala not at all entertaining to us since its a real fear
LOLOLO!!!!! Whats funny? LOLOLOL!!! What the fuck is funny?
Ronald Allan Rupuesto wow calm down grizzly
COOL BEARS ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️
“Let’s play with him, mom!”
Mom: “Sure, but first let me take the stuffing out.”
Glad you are okay and as a resident of alaska you did the smartest move possible there just being calm and backing off. The bears are not very aggressive unless they feel threatened and since it was the peek of summer they were likely pretty full on fish so good job staying calm mate and hope to see you again in this state
never hike without a thick peanut butter sandwich
what a tough spot to be in, he runs, he’s dead, he stops, he’s dead, he stumbles, trips, he’s dead. the bear decides to defend her cubs, he’s dead. this could have go wrong on so many levels!
I love how these people get along with animals so well!
How did you end up getting out of that situation? Did they finally just go a different direction or did you slip off the path in to the woods and let them pass?
I agree. I'd like some details. It was tense watching this and a zillion questions popped in my head!
AugustHawk a zillion!? That must be a lot
AugustHawk JUST LIKE THE ZILLION ZITS ON YOUR FAT FUCKIN FACE
Barry Larkin You're awfully aggressive aren't you.
Barry Larkin | Sick roast. Now go back to eating your alphabeti Spaghetti.
Such a beautiful family they look well fed and happy bears.
❤️🇺🇸🙏🕊🙏🇺🇸❤️
I guess you could say that that was a beary close encounter!
Edit: all these puns are taking my BEARdens away, nope that was bad
"Close encounters of the bears kind"
Griffin Awesome y'all gay af
Griffin Awesome did you just
The tension was pawlpable...
Guys these puns are “Un-bear-able”
Damn, that was intense! You could say he bearly made it out of there............I apologize.
So very Grateful each and everyday!!!!!
Thank you 🙏 dear God!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Were you wearing a sombrero in a goofy fashion? You might've attracted a sea bear.
Loved the ending shot of the bears glad the guy was okay
Aw they look so cute and fluffy💗 But, I would be scared if I actually saw them in real life.
its literally a monster
AlittleYorkie The cubs are the size of German shepherds , they would rip you to shreds
guys leave Yorkie alone come on
Suplex fuck off
AlittleYorkie bears!!
Glad you made it to July 15th man!
I love bears and this was awesome.
In general it proves how laid back and chilled they are as long as they are not provoked or getting up on the wrong side of the cave floor.
Lucky for you the mom was chill as fuck
"Keep following little cubs, he will tired and we will feast"- mama bear
what if this video is in reverse... *and* it's the bears that are actually walking backwards!?!? FAKE VID!!!
cubs are adorable, and mom doesn't seem too concerned, does she?
This is probably the scariest thing that I can think off. The moment she feels you are a threat she is going to charge at you and fuck your life up.
Pretty good CGI!!
scary!!!
The two cubs seem to be thinking, "This is fun, let's play a game!"
Fool! You only need to draw a circle :v
😃😃😃Yeeeeees!!!
but it needs to be perfect round
Cringeworthy comment lol.
Just desperately wanting attention lol
I’m scared just by watching this video. You are truly brave.
I would be terrified. You held it together quite well
Best part is where he says he is hoping someone else from camp comes along so he can get away 😂
angry hobbit 😂💀
Maybe he was hoping that a ranger will show up and scare her off with gunshots.
Such cute little murderous beasts
No different than humans!!
John Henry Except we're not cute.
Actually they don't attack if not provoked and they don't destruy environment and not killing innocent beings unlike humans.
like humans
1 fatal bear attack per year in north america
LOL! The cubs are just curious! "What are you?" Good job staying calm and not seeming threatening
Wow, quite the encounter!
Momma Bear seemed exceptionally calm.
I'm happy I live in a place free of bears and other scary wildlife on land
Um, bears are not to fear, humans are!
sunryse1965
Says the future bear turds.
KelseyRose Manuel
where do you live antarctica? everywhere is full of dangerous wildlife, maybe you live in the city but just go a few miles out of the city and they will be there, somewhere
Unfuckwithable Theophile why are your parents not supervising you? Shame on them.
kelsey
warthogs do you mean? they are dangerous sometimes, way more than pigs just check it out th-cam.com/video/VuH4yqhacAQ/w-d-xo.html these are not even wrthogs, they are wild pigs
theres no snakes in haway? spiders? anyway, the land is safe but the hawaian sea is packed with tigers sharks, thats crazy living at tropical paradise and become scared everytime you go for a sea bath
*I'm walking backwards on the trail back to camp* ...because I heard bears can smell fear and I don't want this bear to know that I had just crapped my pants --because there's this 4 ton Mom w/2 cubs coming my way LOL!
Quite commendable that the man was able to hold the phone in landscape mode, zoom in, narrate, and walk backwards!
What would've happened if you walked forwards? Would the bears have walked backwards instead?
MaharlikaAWA he would be dead
any man willing to walk forward in that situation would most certainly cause the terrified bears to run in the opposite direction at full speed after seeing the immense size of that persons huge balls.
I'mJust Sayin
Lol
Idk same wonder
I dont think so lol
amazing wherewithal to film this well, while narrating, while walking backwards, while being examined as a possible dinner by a large mama bear and her hungry cubs
other than getting his bear spray ready, he handled this encounter absolutely perfectly.
I've seen an instance where bear spray buys you time, but then the bear is pissed and will find you later at some other point in the woods. If you use bear spray, don't hang around for round two.
they just want a big hug
A. Never hike alone.
B. Don't camp near a natural food and water source.
C. Always look for signs (tree markings, smells, scat) of apex predator habitation of an area bwfore setting up a camp.
D. Never have food IN a camping area. I wouldn't even cook near where I sleep.
E. Always keep non lethal means of deterrence on your person. (ie bear mace)
That bear just wanted to get to the lake, you should have stepped off the trail and let them pass.
Hey you should have moved laterally and let them have the right of way. You expected them to yield?
@Barry Dillard Hell Yes Dillard !!!!
CPTALCATRAZ96IT bor escaping would be like not possible doesn‘t matter where
It was pretty thick brush. And he's an older guy. It might have been difficult for him to move easily off the path. It would have been risky if he started fumbling around off the path they might have got excited. At least on the path he could move calmly and consistently. I mean chances are if he did they would have just walked by and you're right but if he tripped or if he had trouble moving you never know
I don’t think anyone can argue that he could have done anything better. I’d have ran full sprint while shitting diarrhea out of my asshole, gotten mauled, and died. So I think he did better than most would have.
Yes
My heart was beating fast for you. Those Cubs were cute.
This is why you don't go hiking in bear country without a big fucking revolver
What if he walked off the trail and let the mom and hug cubs walk by? Do you think that would work or... ? Just a thought. I have no idea.
Bears travel on the trails for the same reason we do; it’s easy walking. Moving out of the bear’s way is the safest action he could have taken. I’ve had similar situations multiple times and simply moving off the trail worked. Bears are generally more interested in finding salmon than stalking a human at Katmai. The man filming should have paid attention in the mandatory safety class at the park
Climb a tree .
@@ezrabrooks7785 They can climb in 20 feet in 2 seconds. Amazingly fast.
Wow! You are so Brave. Glad you are ok.
Bear? ok sure ..
Mama bear? alright fine..
But a Mama bear + little shits running at me? Umm no thanks ✋️
I really loved the "Aww come on !!" when the cute little cubs run to him
That was one of those moments you just wish would end, and end well.
Up in the wallapines (Kingman) It was snowing, there was a group of elk chilling watching me, suprisingly friendly, then one came up to my car, and we fed it, It was huge and amazing!
1:36...either that's bear droppings or he shat himself walking backwards.
