Camera crew come perilously close to a Grizzly | Great Bear Stakeout - BBC 

Chris Eversole bawhahahaha 😂🤣😂🤣

Lol

Nah bruh need a 44 or sum

😂😂😂

Im sure saying "Good boy" makes the bear feel at ease.

I would've fainted.

More than I have for sure

Avonlea Montague isn’t it easy with popper spray?

Balls of steel veins of ice

I'd of shit my pants on the spot

Haha

😂🤣🤣

It is vocal tone that they say the bears pick up on. Thus, calm talk in English is more for the speakers. Sorry to be so literal minded. I get your joke

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

HAHAHAHA

that's what threw him off, probably confused his ass

MrYellingdingo 😂😂😂

Dead bro😂

Lol

Lmfaoooooo

Lol

Your comment made me laugh. I've always wondered why no one uses fire crackers when being threatened by a bear, if they don't have a gun that is. I'm sure in some cases it would save your life, the noise would probably drive them off.

Bear spray can stop any bear. Bear spray is one of the most dangerous sprays. That’s why it’s called BEAR SPRAY

@@HOODCHRYMER fun fact, since bears dont know how pepper spray works, regulations were enforced keep bear spray as a dialed down version of the kind that we use use on people. They also smell better and breath bigger breaths than humans si it doesn't need to be that strong. Its just in a can similar in size to a riot can because the need of multiple usage and human errors (missed blasts)

@@HOODCHRYMER HAHA wow you now nothing, Bear spray is WAY weaker than high quality spray. And SEVERAL people have died or almost died after spraying a bear with it. It is no guarantee, at least nothing like a well placed rifle shot.

Lol

@@George-nx5lo You gun nuts are hilarious. There are several reported cases of bears taking multiple high caliber shots to the head mid charge, and still making contact, and falling AFTER the attack. So congrats, you shot, the bear, but it still got to maul you. Their skulls are thick, as are their hides. Right here on RU-vid, you can find a video of a grizzly bear taking a point blank shotgun blast to the face, falling to the ground, then getting up to repeat the charge. Multiple reports done by wildlife agencies have also compared the efficacy of firearms against bears versus spray, and I've yet to see a report done by any reputable agency that says firearms are more effective.. Bear spray is less powerful than human pepper spray, you are correct. However that is because a bear's nose is a hundred times more powerful than ours, and they take massive breaths. "Bear spray is a very effective deterrent when used properly. In a 2008 review of bear attacks in Alaska from 1985-2006, Smith et al. found that bear spray stopped a bear's "undesirable behavior" in 92% of cases. Further, 98% of persons using bear spray in close-range encounters escaped uninjured."

People and animals alike can distinguish differences in tone. So it's not necessarily about what you say, but more about how you say it.

@Franz Huber You are the idiot. This bear is Van (5 years old). Please dont be idiot. Thank

Heimskr's Wisdom how do they know his name is van!?

@@thee_ag they asked

Name tag

Maybe the bear likes a challenge? Maybe the bear thinks the faster human is the healthier leaner meat and the slower one is sick with tainted meat?

@@truman5838 That's what the pepper spray is for, It flavors the meat of the slower guy

I'm going to Victoria B.C. the end of the month. I'll be sure get me a can of bear spray and have a short fat guy by my side everywhere I go. Lol

@@truman5838 Good man Planning ahead is important!

@@manbearpig5907 Yup. So when are we going hiking? Lol

Diego Nunez 😂bear looked like he just got out from a 30 year stretch for a crime he didn’t commit lmaoo

I blame the people filming in almost inhabitable tundra/wilderness. They wanted to rumble with a jail bear

Lord Of frog ur everywhere

Yeah he's no Winnie the pooh

He's probably been fighting with other male bears.

Sam Latifi I was thinking the same thing

lolololo

Sam Latifi FIRST THING I THOUGHT

😂😂😂😂😂😂

HAHAHAHA

Ofc it was lol

No need. Bear spray is far more effective by data. Gunshots hardly ever kill a bear instantly. It usually takes five shots to bring them down on the spot. While the bear is bleeding out, it can easily kill its attacker. The bear spray gives him such sensory trauma, and breathing difficulties, he wants no more of it.

@@Nagy50Magyar That's not inclusive of all the facts. Guns are extremely effective, but 90% of the time it's because the gun shot alone scares the bear, so you don't even need to shoot it.

@@kaio37k You are saying what you want to say, not facts. Fish & Wildlife Service has compiled data on this, so you need to stop wasting my time with your fantasies.

@@kaio37k You are making things up, while contradicting peer-reviewed studies. That qualifies in the top five percent for arrogance, ignorance, and stubbornness. Waste my time once again with your mindless prattle, and you will be talking to yourself.

João Ribeiro how do u not get more credit for that? Thats funny af

Lmao

they almost got that bear killed...they arent hero's! If the bear had attacked a human , it would have been put down by the authorities. Getting way too close to this bear could cost the humans and the bear their lives...why take the risk just for some 'photos'

@@maxdamage4259 That always pisses me off ...

@@maxdamage4259 if you against it so much, why dont you just stop watching video/'photo' to support them?

Demelo F right on

Yeah like these BBC people have no experience with wildlife haha

Loool

And Sean Connery did narration for nature documentaries

@@ataxcollector695 I’m pretty sure that’s actor/comedian Billy Connelly

_New rule..._

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Hide behind someone. Good strategy.

BAHAHAHAH i didnt even think of that

He said he was going to get on the other side of him because if he had to spray the wind would of got the guy on his left . Not get behind him lol

@@joshuashepherd2058 200 iq

"The wind" aka...I just shat my pants!.

IKR

Lol! I hadn't realised it but I was staying as still as possible

20th time watching, still feel like this 🔼

Hilarious! Definitely scary enough to make anybody play dead , even in their own bed! That was hard to watch! Lucky guys BIG time!

🤣🤣

I believe he was planning incase he had to use the Bear Spray. The wind was blowing towards the cameraman, so he was trying to avoid spraying him.

lol thats f**ked up haha

Still got eaten though lmao

I'm two years late, but this is one of my favorite comments in RU-vid history lol, thanks!

@bongo155 sharks are highly intelligent

Talking to bears, especially Grizzlys, helps a ton.

The bear stopped mid track and did a 180 when the smell of diarrhea hit him.

That's a pretty unique username you have there.

Bear: approaches crew Man with pony tail: "CHARGE!!!"

This guy knows nothing about bears, he just got lucky and he is a bragger you can tell that!!

Jeff Everett and how can you tell that?

@@jetflyer62901 Because of the crew behind the camera guy, the bear veered off to the right when he seen multiple people which in the bears mind is not approachable. If it would have been (just) the two guys then he would have at least got a lot closer and that's usually when humans (panic and either run or spray) and shit hits the fan! Bears are instinctual killers and two people don't really bother a bear as far as them being scared or spooked, but a group of people somehow is overwhelming for there mind to conceive. I have lived at the base of a mountain for years and i (Never) all through the years while my kids were growing up let just two play outside alone. I would make sure all the kids went out or my wife and i went out if it was just two kids because we had lots of bears come into our yard. These guys were safe unless they done something dumb like spray or run, the bear might have even came right up to them sniffed them and walked away (but most humans panic at that point!). We have had bears amped up because someone let the dam dog out and nothing amps a bear up more than a dog, we have had bears chasing our dog right by us within a couple feed, just go right by us and try and eat our dog.

This guy is a dumb ass, just lucky one time... next time it's his neck! Ripped to shreds!

@@jeffeverett830 so what do you do if a bear approaches you?

falco830 LMFAO

Yeah this statement comes up all the time. Overused.

James Dunn So true, it surprises me, why those pubescent ball comments continues to get so many upvotes.

😂😂😂

big raw dangling meatballs would look good for them, no?

ciao9987 good one, lol

A cookie

Trump and hitlary on the trip

To see Russia from my house.

no, watch the complete documentary, the story goes on....

😂😂😂

Idiots.

Lmao. Thank you!

He had to make up some bullshit excuse.

Affiliate Wireless No it makes sense, he wanted him to come around that side because the wind would blow the smell of human towards the bear.

He's also the one with the bear spray, so he actually does need to care about wind.

Here’s the truth- the cameraman was shitting his pants so the other guy needed to move upwind from him. 😜

That was cold lmao

Ur a pussy....smh

Hold my bear*

That's because you re utterly uninformed. Why don't I send you a little can of weapons grade plutonium, and see how it cracks you up, literally?

@@Nagy50Magyar But... it's bear spray... not freaking plutonium

@@Ytremz What the hell do you mean by that? Are you in a twisted zero sum world in which there is no continuum between bear spray and plutonium?

@@Nagy50Magyar Do you regret that comment yet? Are you really this animated about bear spray?

No, Van is not working at being a good boy, but he is.He displayed a sense of justice; once his sense of smell proved that the suspects did not have his cached seal, he did not rip them up just because he was upset. Bears adhere to their own, rather rational rules better than we do to ours.

Van may or may not have murdered multiple bears in his lifetime to keep his dominance as the king of Katmai national park.

That bear got too close. Those men are very fortunate to live after that.

John Smith 👌

@John Smith Bullshit

😂😂😂😂😂

@@miarawks Yeah you suck that finger

@@miarawks Suck that finger

@JustHereToComment.​ There's always gotta be one idiot in the comments, and here you are... These guys are only alive and un-maimed because they did the exact opposite of what your youtube-expert opinion suggests they should have done. It is pretty much universally accepted that when in a confrontation with a brown bear, you stand your ground, remain calm, and speak in a soft voice so that the bear can hear you, but doesn't perceive you as aggressive/threatening. It's no coincidence that once these guys further submitted to the bear that he became satisfied that they weren't challenging his kill. You are thinking of the rules of engagement when dealing with a large cat (in Alaska, obviously that's the mountain lion). Kneeling or turning your back in the presence of a large feline is akin to activating their kill switch.

JustHereToComment. .... they did just kneel for a brown bear. And it was the correct thing to do. You saw it on video. Haha wtf

@JustHereToComment. That's one of the most stupid things I've read this week.

@JustHereToComment. You are an idiot.

@JustHereToComment. this is the only video I seen of an approaching grizzly in which the humans kneel or get low and talk softly. In all the others the people remain standing and talk to the bear pretty firmly or loudly: A lot of hunters seems to hell, "hey! Hey, Git out of here!," etc. And it has worked.

Yeah, Thank you for the free haircut Van....lmao

thats the scariest thing for me honestly is those claws....just shred someone up in no time and i do alot of hiking in bear country in cali so more just black bears......

What?

LMAOOOO

Nemesis T-Type I agree, if you mean the comment section.

Van completely understood the situation in any language. The smell of his lost seal was not on them, so he had no reason to do anything to them.

i think any more critical thinking and these guys could've been lunch

Think his name is vahn

Lmao!!!

Van was very reasonable.

Speaking to bears actually helps, look it up.

i guess girls are predators

Just press A or D to strafe and avoid getting hit.

would never reach me since there is my safe space he has to tolerate

Yes, that explains it, good observation. 👏

Very possibly true

Huh.. 5 years ago, eh? Wonder if it's still active. I sound like I'm talking about and ancient tombstone lmao

Luke Carberry lol

@Semper Fi Exactly. If you weren't scared, you wouldn't need to be submissive.

😄😂

But they understand calm body and vocal language

they understand the tone and body language

Grizzlies are fluent in French, Spanish, English, and Russian. That's a well-known fact.

LMAO

He probably only understands Inuit

The fate any bear hunter deserves is to be slaughtered and have his hide hung on someone's wall as a trophy.
