Ur absolutely right. The incredible burst of speed and stamina ALL bears have is terrifying. All I could think in the end when the guy was like WHEW im safe when the bear turned into the woods is NO UR NOT SAFE lol I was expecting the bear to come barreling outta the woods from the side lol. Just recently watched 2 fisherman get charged from a grizzly and it was literal SECONDS she was feet from their boat 😳😳
Wow, this really inspiring! He handled this situation with such confidence and knowledge, and because of that neither he nor the bear had to get hurt. Nice to see a 'what TO do' video for a change.
For people that are confused about what kind of bear this is: The guy in this video is correct. This is a Black Bear. The American Black Bear is just the name of the SPECIES of bear. Just because the term 'Black Bear' has the color 'black' in it does not mean that all bears of that species are black. American Black Bears can come in different colors. Like cinnamon (the one is this video), brown, blonde, blue-gray, etc.
All I could think of was Jurassic park 😂😬 You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, from the other two 'raptors you didn't even know were there.
He probably just wants to cuddle and bond with you... that bear spray looks like a 2 day shaving kit you get from Walmart. Seems like a nice friendly lad like you. To each his own.
Don't need bear spray. If he charges just reach down his throat, grab him by the tail and yank him inside out. Then he's inside out and heading the other way. I've done it plenty of times but mostly with grizzlies. Might be a bit harder with a smaller bear like that one to get your arm in his mouth. With little ones like that I just grab them by the jaw and shake the piss out of them. That scares em and they run off every time. I've done this with sharks too but only a couple of times.
No this is predatory behavior. Normal bears run from people as soon as they notice you or if they are used to people they may just continue doing whatever they were doing. If a bear is following you for any distance at all it is because it is trying to determine if it is a good idea to try to eat you there's nothing curious or friendly about it
Talking and walking away slowly is the right thing to do. So why not video? I had just run down the road so I knew there were no obstacles to trip me as I backed away. Recorded so I had documentation of what happened, should things turn south

Когда можно было уходить он снимал видео для ютьюба тем самым рисковал своей жизнью. Медведица перестала его догонять только потому что на дороге были следы другого медведя и она его почуяла. Посмотрите в конце ролика на следы на дороге. Очень глупый человек, остался жив только чудом. Баллон с газом ему бы не помог.
Imagine the bears perspective people. Your walking through the woods when some human runs past you then proceeds to start filming you and constantly talking while blocking your path. This bear was walking the same direction then started getting harassed. He was confused and slightly irritated, but clearly not predatory.
Вообще-то там категорически запрещено бегать. Я, кстати, там тоже сдуру решил побежать по тропе, и тоже на напоролся на медведя. Но дело было летом, и нас было двое. Медведь же жрал траву с кореньями, и мы его не интересовали. Видео встречи есть у меня на канале.
Lol, the bear was no where near this guy. Didn’t have an aggressive posture at all. Just walking the same direction wondering what this dude is freaking out about...
@@dancingnature I live in Lake Tahoe. Bears are a regular thing here. You should never draw attention to yourself, or act aggressive. Just simply keep walking...
Guys read about this lol. Read about black bears silently stalking. It IS considered a bad sign actually. A bear openly charging is often more of a dominance or defensive thing. A bear silently stalking can be an alarming sign. Also standing up to black bears is sometimes advisable. Edit: to acknowledge the other comments attacks are exceedingly rare, however it seems the worst black bear attacks do start like this- silent following. Read about the west milford attack in New Jersey or about the bears in backcountry canada. It’s also usually young black bears like this.
Finally someone that knows what they're talking about. This bear was simply heading the same direction. Runner is an idiot and antagonized the situation for a video as most animal encounters.
Wrong, most black bear attacks are due to the bear being startled, cornered, or because of a nearby cub. Here they break into homes in search of food. Bears are curious, and they will follow, but it is not a sign of aggression. Simply move along and they will loose interest.
Not necessarily true. Read about black bear stalking in remote areas. This kind of behavior actually can be a bad sign, but attacks are still super rare. It’s usually young bears feeling humans out as prey. Standing up to them seems the move.
The narrator is right, it’s a cinnamon black bear. Check out his Roman nose profile, not dish faced like a grizzly. Also, the bear has no shoulder hump.
"Run somewhere else". I live here. Should I just hop on a plane and go run in Southern California? Or drive 8 hours south until I'm out of bear country? Do you think your city just appeared one day? Or do you think thousands of animals and humans who were living there when settlers showed up had to be displaced/killed for that land? This is the problem with our society. Everybody wants to complain without having any context of what they're even talking about
Did you watch the beginning? He went from 35 yards to 10 in a couple seconds. Yeah he definitely slowed down after I yelled at him and then didn't run away. Then we just took a walk together...but he was certainly interested initially. If you ever have a cool and exciting experience, feel free not to post it. I posted this for my friends and family to see, not for you to watch and judge from you computer chair 😅 Didn't know anybody else would even care
Jogger: “I got my bear spray.”
Bear: “How thoughtful of you to bring the hot sauce.”
I think the bear was indeed interested in the hot sauce 😂
Watching this, you'd think he's safe at that distance, but that bear would catch up to him in seconds.
Yeah I laughed when he said I'm only a quarter mile from the car...he wouldn't make it half way there if the bear started really running after him

It's nice to watch a video of someone in a bit of danger and gets out safely. It's also nice to watch such a video without cussing in it.
"Good bear" definitely established the positive relationship. You can't eat someone who calls you a "good bear."
😅😅😅 we were instant best buds after that!
Wow, this really inspiring! He handled this situation with such confidence and knowledge, and because of that neither he nor the bear had to get hurt. Nice to see a 'what TO do' video for a change.
That was definite predatory behavior. That bear was feeling that situation out to see if the juice was worth the squeeze.
Sir.. sir, you dropped your wallet.

Yeap, even in white (Kermode or spirit bear)!
All I could think of was Jurassic park 😂😬

"Clever girl!"
He just wants to give you a hug.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, sorry for the negative comments 💙
The bear is visibly shocked that his food does not stop walking and talking at the same time.
Wow awesome taddy bear 🐻
Yes. Keep walking! Great restraint. I'd be mauled for running!!
🙏❤🙏👵
Maybe he just wanted an autograph.
He probably just wants to cuddle and bond with you... that bear spray looks like a 2 day shaving kit you get from Walmart. Seems like a nice friendly lad like you. To each his own.
he was just looking for a hug, ain't no big thing. if he wanted you, you wouldn't be posting a video.
Surprise fitness instructor
The bear just wanted a pat on the head...and maybe an arm or leg.
Don't need bear spray. If he charges just reach down his throat, grab him by the tail and yank him inside out. Then he's inside out and heading the other way.

That bear flunked obedience school... failed to follow verbal commands (STOP! NO!), no response to good/bad bear verbals. ;-)
What's the backup plan? If the can of mace fails.
The usual protocol is to scream and fall apart!!
Horrible death.
Bear just wanted to tell you about your cars extended warranty.
Why? what's wrong with my extended warranty? It's not going to expire is it? Do you need my credit card information?
it's just Yogi Bear wanting information
yet another curious, adorable bear
Yea, curious to eat something.

Question : what kind of Bear is best ?
You came for a run ...then RUN!
Early watching from the philippines 🇵🇭
Here from scotland
Smart to back away slowly. Those Teton bears...had enough myself.
Pardon me Mr. Jogger, but do you have any Grey Poupon?
It's probably brown by that point.
Зря гнался, все равно с него жрать нечего!😀😀😀👍👍👍
He just wanted to say hi. Get close, it's a bee, be calm.
I'm still searching for the black bear... watched this multiple times... is it just me 😕???
Black bear is a species, not always the coat color. Read about it you’ll see.
@@iforgot87872 that's definitely not a black bear
Robin Schmidt look it up. Black bears have different colors. Also their snouts and shoulders are different.
@@Yfzmarine Yes it is, that is not a grizzly one!
@@Portugal2100 brown bear
Besides the bear spray and/or a firearm, I wonder if blasting an air horn at the bear would scare them away?
When you go blueberrin'', bring a pot and a big spoon to bang it to scare away the bears.
Bear is following me, oh no! Let’s stop and video it
Talking and walking away slowly is the right thing to do. So why not video? I had just run down the road so I knew there were no obstacles to trip me as I backed away. Recorded so I had documentation of what happened, should things turn south
You don't need bear spray, you need ketchup and mustard to make yourself more tastey
Why walk/jog through a park that has hungry black bears roaming around?
Well, because I like exercise, and this is where I live. I would have to drive hours away to run somewhere that doesn't have bears!
I do not think I can be that of cool
Петров и Башаров добрались до США , по привычке захватили Михалыча...
if he were russian he would start running at the bear and chase it away
Meet it half way!
people need to stop feeding these animals ... this one is acting like its waiting for food to be dropped
cool!

"Hey Ben, what did you do today"
"Went for a walk in the yard. Some crazy A-hole was yelling at me. Being a real jerk. Neighborhood is going to pot."
So who goes running with their selfie stick?
It was my phone. I run with my phone in case something happened and I need assistance (such as getting mauled by a bear.....)
Tremendo video con el oso
At the end of the video he says "That was exciting!" then all of a sudden a mountain lion pounces him out of nowhere.
Bear want beta meal!
Glad it wasnt a full grown BROWN bear.
Добегался.
C'est une grosse blague : cet ours très sympa voulait seulement des câlins, prévoir une réserve de gâteaux avec du miel....
He couldn’t run because of all of the poop poop in his underwear 😁
Black bears attack people? I thought it was only grizzlys.
Not typically but when they do it is usually going to be really bad. Never “play dead” with a black bear like you do for a grizzly.

она и не "догоняла", просто шла следом. Не особо торопилась.
This dude is so beta no wonder the bear wanted him...

This bear was walking the same direction then started getting harassed. He was confused and slightly irritated, but clearly not predatory.
Я бы там больше не бегал

Cinnamon black bear.

He would have never out run it . 4 legged animals can usually run faster than humans

Looks brown to me. LOL Doesn't listen well. 🐻
What are the visible distinctions between a brown bear and a black bear?
He identified it correctly “cinammon black bear.”
That bear is just walking down the road, not following him. that bear doesn't give a care about that guy.
Not necessarily true. Read about black bear stalking in remote areas. This kind of behavior actually can be a bad sign, but attacks are still super rare. It’s usually young bears feeling humans out as prey. Standing up to them seems the move.
He just want to short your life
Back off Yogi
He's not a black bear
What species is he?
Black bears are not always actually black. Google black bear colors.
That's not a black bear. That is a brown, or grizzly bear.
The narrator is right, it’s a cinnamon black bear. Check out his Roman nose profile, not dish faced like a grizzly. Also, the bear has no shoulder hump.
No it is a blonde/cinnamon color American black bear
A grizzly bear would be three times bigger than that.
U cannot expect us to completely take over their environment with encounters go run somewhere else dude smfh

Oh please Bear wasn't even advancing towards him... hahah. What a tool bag for posting this.
he made 300 hundred meters since beginning the bear would already be on him if he didnt move.
Did you watch the beginning? He went from 35 yards to 10 in a couple seconds. Yeah he definitely slowed down after I yelled at him and then didn't run away.

As a Jesus-lookalike, you should surely know that Jesus would never call anyone a "tool bag". (Well, with the exception of Judas, I guess...)
