Four college wrestlers say they are grateful to be alive -- and for each other -- after going toe-to-toe with a grizzly bear in Wyoming over the weekend. Full story: abc7chicago.co...
Grandpa: "The bear knew it couldn't win so it eventually gave up 😎. Me and my friends really only went to the hospital because we heard there were cute nurses there."
That dude who clearly got mauled is a badass. Dude attacked a grizzly bear that was on top of his friend and took the worst of it without thinking about it. Most people would've ran but he fought instead.
@bertom9077z,amen to that.The kids got balls the size of peach baskets.I definitely would NOT WANT to have to wrestle either one of the two guys who fought the bear.They went up against the king of the woods,on his own turf,and LIVED TO TALK ABOUT IT.GREAT JOB FELLAS.SPEEDY RECOVERY!!!!
The kid that jumped in is a straight up hero and savage. What an amazing dude. Very few on earth would do that. Thats a friend you stand with for life.
@@orion9k he did t sacrifice himself, hes alive and well. Youre the incredibly stupid and weak one for not putting your life on the line to protect what you love
The absolute balls of the guy who started attacking a *bear* to save his buddy. My god. This is the definition of, "You should see the other "guy." as well as "ride or die.". Wow. Harrowing.
The word of God and Yahoshuah says "A true friend is WILLING to give his/her life for a friend." ❤ Thank God they both (& all involved) made it! Victory to Yahoshuah!
@@yunggeist3211 yes its insane, others calling his friend a coward for freezing up, I'd love to see what they'd do when a kodiak approaches them, and they seem to think fighting a bear would be something feasable. maybe it is for this dude but its not
@@je7647 Nah, probably 99.9% of people would either freeze up or just have absolutely no idea what to do. I don't think that would make anyone a coward, I mean It's a terrifying scenario all around. However, doing what his friend did *definitely* *does* make him an absolute hunk of a buddy to have around. That's "named my firstborn after him" type shit.
Dude who goes into fight mode instead of flight after seeing a grizzly attacking friend!!!? He should seriously win awards for courage... that's on a different level.
Guys, HERE is Our TRUE Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Egyptian Semitic: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moshe (Moses) wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Egyptian Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Yet they put eachother in that situation …… Wild animals are no Joke! Don’t go in without proper knowledge/equipment. And you may never come out…… they are just plain LUCKY. Not heroic
@@roorkollector5340 What you're saying is false and you lack in reading comprehension to prove an invalid point. The guy who SAVED HIS FRIEND is a hero, we literally never called those guys heroes for stepping up to a bear, just this guy saving his friend against all odds.
@@Danlovestrivium would love to see statues and murals of a kid like this. Instead we get statues and murals of thugs who do drugs and try using fake dollar bills at the gas station. Sad.
@caliso1d4do it is logical and it's what most people would do. You can't win a fight with a bear and you can't run from one that's chasing you. The only 'logical' chance to escape is when it's attacking someone else. Don't look down on people and act like you'd fight a bear to save your friend. I'm not even sure I would.
He should be nominated for TIME person of the year but they would pick someone like Greta Thunberg, AOC or any SJW instead. That's what society thinks heroes are now.
@@whipsandtips Let's see how you react when you see your friend being mauled to death by a grizzly. It's fight or flight, it's not a conscious decision, and you have no idea what you would do until it happens to you, so don't judge him, he was the first one to be attacked by it, he probably just wanted to gtfo of that situation asap! Also, they never say that those two friends left each other, only that they met up with their other two friends later on.

@@moviesynopsis001 well my husband lost an eye as a child. And went through brain cancer 2 years ago and has a big scar on his head from surgery. Women like men with battle scars
@@countrygirlxo7188but is he blonde and with blue eyes? If not i think you should do artificial ins3mination or try to see a doctor who can select eggs then you can have 100% chance of having blue eyed blonde babies cause its very rare. Less than 8% have it i think
What's crazy is that the guy who saved his friend got attacked a second time just because he was calling out to Another friend to check on him. The bear didn't like his yelling and came back. All because he was checking on the other guys. What an absolute legend.
Yea, his caring attitude and lack of self was what triggered the second attack. The bear probably thought he was no longer a threat, but after the yelling it probably got startled again. Thank God this guy is alive.
Obviously they ran off, he was calling them and no one answered cuz the bitchess took off. Always save your family but dont risk yoyr life for fri3nds dont be dumb cuz they donr give a shit about u on the deep level. Unless its a friend fr9m childhood which i would consider family but thats a story for a nother day. Give me some asss

Dude has an amazing story to tell for the rest of his life. His scars will show trauma but they will also show courage, heroism, and a lot of badass business! Props to all these guys
I survived a bear attack in 2019. I hope the age of these young men will help them with the PTSD that will kick in months after the attack. To the young man that was clearly mauled, its a long road ahead, but this experience will give you a tremendous amount of personal confidence and maturity no one else your age will have the benefit of. Take care and get well!
@dude why You don't trust him, because YOU are a liar. Nice projection. He has nothing to gain by lying. But this is something YOU have done before, so you assume ill intent.
@@Diana1000Smiles No human has ever survived a predatory Griz attack they were not prepared to defend against that I am aware of. That would include a surprised Sow with cubs... HOWEVER, if you aren't a fool who thinks bear spray works, you can put the largest of griz, polar or pretty much any other predator down. Chose and practice wisely. If you fear being eaten by a shark.. You REALLY should fear the sound of your bones being crushed by a bear. Sharks don't actually like the taste of humans.. Bears, It depends,, Don't believe me.. They love BBQ sauce if you want to test it out... :)
True hero. His scars are badges of honor for life. Lol) Folks, someone needs to teach grizzly’s to wrestle in their weight class, use mouthwash and follow some basic rules! Hey, maybe they could coach the Bears defense?
One of the toughest guys out there, his bravery is going to reflect on every aspect of live , I wish everyone the best recovery and have a nice summer.
The guy that jumped in and helped his friend is a brave human being.. This guy attacks the bear to help his friend.. That's real brass a real hero, this a guy people should get behind and support, not celebrities.. Can't wait for the movie and hope all these guys get paid well from this crazy scenario..
There was one similar incident back in 1993 where a big cat a mountain lion I think, attacked a couple teenagers in a wild life park, after the attack and the news networks covering the story, the teens started a small business where one literally stabbed the other in back over money ROTFLMAO 😂 Sometimes $$$ overwhelms a friendship, bt I do hope your right lol
they left him alone with the bear to maul him. I dont think this friendship will last. I hope dude's face fully recover because he will have a hard time in this disgusting society with scars all over his face.
Most people wouldnt face a bear for their own family. Its the same with machete and sword attacks. The truth is the vast majority wont fight because they know they could die too
@@brandonamezquita4501 bears have been killed by much smaller caliber, but 10mm won't be some automatic instant kill like in a video game, it depends where you hit it
I'm truly glad they're ok, but seriously the battle scars he gets to show and talk about. I know that's messed up, but he gets to proudly say he survived a Grizzly attack. You imagine the first time he get's to tell his grandkids his story how legendary it will feel. "Well kids I'll tell you what, it was back in 22' when me and my buddies and I had to fight a bear. He bit me in the head, but your grandpa he survived it, because he knew. Sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear eats you".
@@terrym5023 How am I a pathetic troll? The definition of scar is; a mark left on the skin or within body tissue where a wound, burn, or sore has not healed completely and fibrous connective tissue has developed; a lasting effect of grief, fear, or other emotion left on a person's character by an unpleasant experience; a mark left on something following damage of some kind and a mark left at the point of separation of a leaf, frond, or other part from a plant. Nice ad hominem by the way! I like how you attack my character instead of my point.
@@Leonhartz I truly hope you get the mental health you so desperately need. Those kids defended each other from a freaking bear. The definition of an Internet troll is someone who just post ignorant comments in order to create drama or controversy. Do not reply to this comment I'm done I don't get into a battle of wits with someone who is half equipped
They both would be if the bear was a little more persistent. Timothy Treadwell and his girlfriend died to a grizzly and they were smacking it with a frying pan, bear didn't care.
Sounds like the almost ditched him when the bear turned on him. He says he called out but didn't hear an answer. If your friends joke about being the fastest when it comes to bear encounters, you probably shouldn't trust them with your life. He was brave for his friends, but it sounds like his friends were hesitant to return the favor.
@@rogerlemans636 Americans really are inconsiderate, "every man for himself" types. There were three others and they just left him after he demonstrated bravery. Americans refuse to work as a team, friendships are all surface-level.
@@contraband1543 Because that's what a civilised first world country does for it's people, have some empathy. God you have such a selfish attitude that is like a virus in the world today. Let's hope you don't get into a similar freak encounter and need some financial assistance. If you do, I expect you not to take ANY donations or help as you advocate. As a society, we are meant to look out for each other.

Coolest f*ckin' scars ever, bro. How do I send him an "I was wrestling a bear" T-shirt? Very glad you survived. Now, make the rest of your life worth the while.
I seriously love this guy who went after that bear on his bud. He got the worst injuries out of both but stayed in the fight. That is literally insane what he did. That’s a hero right there through and through. Makes me so proud
Goes to show who he really is underneath the facade. When emotions kicked in, he could not walk away even if it meant his death. His subconsciousness made that split second decision for him.
From my experience with wrestlers, if that 'attacker' was anything but a grizzly bear it wouldve been pinned on the ground helplessly in a split second lol
What a great friend people get called hero for not much these days but this kid who saved his friend is genuinely a hero that’s putting his own life on the line.
Such innocent, true bravery and brotherhood! Beautiful. Prayers for full recovery and all the support to process what the heck you just went through. Stay strong stay true boys…you and others will be blessed. ❤️
You do realize this is a very unique situation right?! They were very close to a bear without them knowing and it felt threatened...Do you also realize men do much worse things to women?
@@-Roos97- The meme is about averages. You all thinking bears are safer is another example why the female cognitive capabilities are historically thrown into question.
I wanted to say that it was a clear tiktok joke, and those women are just mad at guys. But then roos came and took that opportunity away, i guess roos can be good for feeding a bear though, pretty sure she is dutch thus to roos: hopelijk krijgt een beertje een maaltijd van je
Nothing to add that hasn’t already been said except to say it myself. I’m impressed by his courage and amazed at his sacrifice. I hope those scars heal well and his heroism is rewarded ten times over.
You see this is why us humans are so powerful because if us humans work together to fight not even the strongest animals could beat us if we work together and fight
That kid with the damage face has balls he literally fought a bear off his friend not many people have the balls to do that infact attacking a bear with you bear hands is basically guaranteed death, his courage brings tears to my eyes
Much respect to this young man. The courage it would take to do that is astounding. I hope those injuries heal up well and the pain subsides overtime ... Bear attacks having lingering effects, both mental and physical.
Yeah nobody beats a bear in a fight you just get lucky enough to make it go away. If that bear really wanted to it could have killed them all easily. That kid had enough courage to show a fighting spirit the bear recognized.

Wyoming Strong! As a fellow Wyomingite, it’s so good to know these fellows are now safe at home! Many thanks to everyone who took care of them. Well done you, young men, your dedication to each other make you real heroes.
“I was putting my hands in its mouth so it wouldn’t be chewing on my neck” this dude is a true hero and warrior… Much respect to these boys for looking out for each other no matter what.
Sounds like the boy who was attacked first, who was helped by the friend, did not return the favor. After the second boy endured the much more damaging attack, he called out, "Brady!" and he heard nothing in response. And you can see the boy sheepishly look like are you going to expose my cowardice? He saved that boy and then he hid a short distance away. There is no reason he should have had to call his friend's name. He saved him without allowing Brady to take the brunt of the damage? Why wasn't Brady there? He was hiding...
@@willnunez5006 you dont know how youre going to react when a grizzly comes at you, the fact this guy even stood up to it is superhuman in the first place and they are gping to dominate most humans juist by the way they look
I'm so thankful these friends fought for each other and how too protect their face and neck or the outcome would have been way worst. Glad you all alive I just want to cry.😣
Notice the body language of all four, we all know who's who LMAO, not judging though, can't really criticize for not jumping into the frey with your life on the line for I've not been there myself and I dont know how would I react, but still, is crystal clear who's ashamed and who isn't.
Nobody will ever have a better, more badass story for how they got their scars than this guy. Taking on a grizzly bear that was attacking your friend.. What an absolute legend.
Heard about this story from my friend who was childhood friends with these fellas a few weeks ago. Amazing to hear the full story from them and to hear about their bravery I can’t imagine standing up against a Grizzly bear. Glad to see them all alive and in mostly one piece.
@@EnthalpyAndEntropy They say 'do this, do that, but all of that goes out the window in the moment. I feel the majority of people would try to fight it since you can't outrun a bear
@@Nonamemannn the majority would lose their head, yes. But, that's because they're weak, inexperienced, and irrational. Knowing that losing my head only makes things worse and having experience with plenty of stressful situations, I KNOW I could play dead. That said, I wouldn't be out there, doing that, without a gun. Whether the play dead advice is legitimate or not, I don't want to take that chance and live with scars I don't have to. This is one of those tales that proves democrats categorically wrong on gun control. Note: Before you get your inner hippie on and bring up bear spray, know that's as bogus as playing dead. I KNOW my 357 or 44 will work no matter how much wind, ice, or rain there is.
So he saved his mate from a bear then they all fled when he was being mauled. I know it’s a crazy situation but that’s when they could have been using rocks, sticks etc as weapons. They left him and he called for them and they were gone and calling the police. There’s one real warrior sitting there who was left behind and survived. So much respect to his selfless bravery.
Yeah I’m surprised none of the interviewers brought it up / the kid isnt upset about it. It should be an unspoken rule at that point. You’re locked into the situation and runnings not an option.
Go throw a rock or a stick at a 500lb grizzly bear that is in full attack mode and see how well it works out for you. Your childish comment is complete fantasy and has no basis in reality. Do not blame them for running away. This is their fight or flight kicking in, and was not a conscious decision. Good luck thinking rationally when you are watching a grizzly maul your friends to death in front of you. You're just an internet keyboard warrior who has a fantasy in your mind that YOU would be different and courageous and YOU would stand and defend your friends from a grizzly ... with a stick. Yeah good luck on that one, the only thing you will be doing is running away and crying.
You don't want to mess up with someone who fought toe to toe against a fucking bear. I hope he can keep on wrestling, because he will be fucking feared.
The man who saved his friend is not only a hero, but a TOTAL BAD-A! I hope he lives a happy and successful life for what he did. And he can tell people he fought a bear, saved his friend, AND SURVIVED!
@@marko514 I 100% would have ran away. If my best friend, of 15 years, got mauled by a bear in front of me, I am turning tail and booking it as fast as I can. Well actually I would shoot the thing because I'm not stupid enough to be unarmed in bear country. Anyway, I would weep for my friend, but there is no sense in replacing myself for him in at the mercy of a bear. Call me a coward or whatever you want, but I'm not getting mauled my a bear for anyone. Maybe my wife or kids if I had either. That's still debatable lmao going against a bear is insane and I'm only just barely crazy
@@contraband1543 "Maybe my wife or kids if I had either" ... I think if you had either, you wouldn't even question laying down your life for them. Living with the guilt of having run away and abandoned your family would haunt you forever, unless you literally have no empathy. When you have children, you made the decision to become their protector and provider, especially if that means giving your life for them.
That boy who saved his friend by attacking a GRIZZLY BEAR deserves a medal of honor for bravery! God was with them both and may God stay with these two young brave men.
God had nothing to do with it. Put yourself in front of a grizzly bear and pray to god…. If you make it out, it wasn’t god. It was luck. God won’t help you while your being eaten alive from your insides out. God… Silly.
