a grown man killed a bear with a knife. Bear ate his arm and he got to jabbing that knife all in that bears mouth .

It's possible. Alot of you don't train and embrace being weak in heart and spirit so you can't imagine doing anything but folding under real pressure.

While y’all stuck on the bear I’m flabbergasted that 8% think they beat an elephant. An elephant is legit the largest land based mammal on the planet and there’s people thinking they can give it that work bare handed. A enraged adult elephant would grab some one by the ankles with their trunk and give them that Hulk vs Loki treatment.

8% of people think they can defeat the largest land mammal? you have to be delusional and never seen an actual african elephant IRL. even with a knife, machete, even some guns, you're not doing shyt. you have to have a special type of high power gun to put it down. once it charges, you're gone.

Trained in bear-fighting? :mjlol:

While bear attacks are rare, a man should always be prepared for a bear encounter. You never know when you’ll need this information. How you handle a bear attack depends on the type of bear you come across: grizzly or black. So the first step in surviving a bear encounter is to know what kind you’re up against.

Grizzly Bear Dossier
  • Color: Medium to dark brown.
  • Body Shape: Has distinct shoulder hump. This is a muscle used for digging roots and slashing prey with their massive bear paw.
  • Height: The grizzly bear averages around 6.5 feet in height.
  • Claws: Grizzly claws are long — up to 4″. They can usually be seen from a distance.
  • Location: Grizzlies are mostly found in Canada. However, populations exist from Alaska and into portions of the northwest United States including Washington, Idaho, the Dakotas, and Montana.
How to Survive a Grizzly Bear Attack
1. Carry bear spray. Experts recommend that hikers in bear country carry with them bear pepper spray. UDAP bear spray is a highly concentrated capsaicin spray that creates a large cloud. This stuff will usually stop a bear in its tracks.

2. Don’t run. When you run, the bear thinks you’re prey and will continue chasing you. Don’t think you can outrun a bear; they can reach speeds of 30 mph. So stand your ground.

3. Drop to the ground in the fetal position and cover the back of your neck with your hands. If you don’t have bear spray or the bear continues to charge even after the spray, this is your next best defense. Hit the ground immediately and curl into the fetal position.

4. Play dead. Grizzlies will stop attacking when they feel there’s no longer a threat. If they think you’re dead, they won’t think you’re threatening. Once the bear is done tossing you around and leaves, continue to play dead. Grizzlies are known for waiting around to see if their victim will get back up.

Black Bear Dossier
  • Color: Exhibits a variety of colors ranging from black to light blond.
  • Body shape: Don’t have the shoulder hump that grizzlies have.
  • Height: Slightly smaller than grizzlies, 3-4 feet tall when on all fours.
  • Claws: Claws are shorter than grizzly claws.
  • Location: Black bears are the most common bear in North America. They live in all the provinces of Canada and 41 and of the 50 American states.
How to Survive a Black Bear Attack
1. Carry bear spray. As with the grizzly bear, bear spray should be your first line of defense in a bear attack.

2. Stand your ground and make lots of noise. Black bears often bluff when attacking. If you show them you mean business, they may just lose interest.

3. Don’t climb a tree. Black bears are excellent climbers. Climbing up a tree won’t help you out here.

4. Fight back. If the bear actually attacks, fight back. Use anything and everything as a weapon — rocks, sticks, fists, and your teeth. Aim your blows on the bear’s face, particularly the eyes and snout. When a black bear sees that their victim is willing to fight to the death, they’ll usually just give up.


Frequently Asked Questions
Will a gunshot kill a bear? A pistol, like a 9mm, may kill a black bear if it’s within a few feet and strikes the head or heart. It won’t be immediate though, so don’t rely on it. A 12-gauge may be more effective, but again, it’s no guarantee. Against a grizzly, it’s quite possible you’ll just piss it off. With either type of bear, don’t rely on a gun to save your life in the event of an attack. Bear spray is actually going to be more effective.

How can you tell if a bear is stalking you? Bears don’t actually stalk their prey very well. They’re large, lumbering animals that aren’t able to keep quiet very well. That said, if a bear continues to look at you and follows you with its eyes, rather than walking off, stay alert.

Which bear is more aggressive? Grizzly bears are by far the more aggressive bear; black bears are actually known for being one of the more tolerant bear species and will almost always back away from the prospect of a fight.

How do you avoid bear attacks/encounters in the first place? Hike in groups, stay on trails, and talk/sing loudly if you’re in an area that has seen high bear activity. Bells hung on your pack also work, but are less effective than other loud noises.

Can a bear outrun a human? Absolutely! Bears can run 20-30 mph. Definitely do not try to outrun a black bear or a grizzly bear.

So disappointment.





Tell em @CarbonBraddock

:lolbron:

I have tried on three separate occasions to find a bear willing to be beat down at my hands. On the third time i went into a national goddamn park wearing a necklace of meatloaf and none of these fakkits wanted it. was out there at midnight whistlin and shyt and could hear their bytchmade footsteps goin the other direction. I have studied these scrubs ever since watching grizzly man. i know how they think, i know how they fight. their primary way of beating something is to get on top of it and go to town. like ronda rousey, they need to wade in to do this. a bear's takedown attempt is slow and unwieldy and can be dodged by an athletic man(see my thread on gorilla combat for references). once the idiot animal sees this won't work, he will stand and attempt to trade. This is a fatal mistake for him because for a trained world-class boxer such as myself, ANY punch or swipe he throws will be seen from a mile away and dodged. Once i dodge, i will come back with power from EITHER hand. I will connect either to his body or his head and he will go night night, then i will wear him as a coat. It really is that simple. If they cannot knock you down, they are defenseless to a trained weapon. look at any bear attack and what do you see? some retard that did not dodge and had no takedown defense. without that, these animals would be sucking dikk for money to buy food.
