I have a rule for my dogs: If they can get it, they can have it. It's my own damn fault for leaving something where they could reach it.

And just get the F away from the GD bear.

Watched about 15 seconds on FB. Arrrrrggggghhhhhh

The best payback I ever saw was a bear in Curry Village that stole some woman's knitting off a bear box outside a tent cabin. This lady grabbed her pepper spray, stood in the doorway and sprayed, into the wind, which promptly pushed it back into the cabin. Everyone came running out choking and gurgling while the bear calmly sauntered off with her knitting.

Bear, please stop!

Maybe his name isn't 'Bear'?

And it was hard to watch cause lobotomized people shouldn't go kayaking.
On the plus side she had the presence of mind, such as it is, to keep the camera rolling,
so we know she has her priorities right.

If they used an endless loop of this video during their interrogations, the CIA would have an admission of guilt in 12.3 seconds.

Tami, are you friends with Sister Pooh? I know you live near the ocean so
here's a Public Service Announcement for you and all ocean kayakers BEFORE
they drag their boats up on the beach to see Mr Bear...

I like the way the bear just takes the spray like a man, strolls over to her rig, and gets even quietly.

Caaaaaareful Warbler...yer misogynistic underwear are showing.

The bear didn't "take it like a man". The bear took it like a BEAR.



And there's a 70% chance it's a SHE bear, too! Lol!

Funniest g-ddamn thing I've seen and heard all day! I watched the whole thing and laughed so hard I couldn't see through my tears! She sprayed it once, why not again when it went back to her kayak? Troll! Must have been 426 in the bear suit! And Chicken Skinner paid for the trip up north! Thanks Ken! You never cease to amaze!

Slow Friday ?
What's the big deal?
I waited till someone posted that it was not a mauling,
then I watched the silly screechy video. . .
It would have been worth the time if it had been a mauling

Not just appalling . , " . . Someone tell her to SHUT UP already, ....



Friday nights at the big city mall in Stamford Ct are more entertaining.


That's where I'm. Not going either.

Stoopid woman should have kicked the bear in the head.

Get a sledge hammer and nail the fuker.

Why all these stoopid people always standing around drooling doing nothing when a bear shows up eating yer kayak.

I used a 2x4 once on a big ass bear trying to tear a pack apart.

Stunned the sucker and he ran away ....

Wait, there are people who haven't hucked rocks at bears? No wonder they've got no respect!
When I bivied near the bear's house I would make a pile of good hucking rocks on either
side of my sleeping bag so I could start hucking no matter what side I awoke on.

Somewhere there's a support group for traumatized hikers who have inadvertently followed Reilly's paired cairns and arrived at a pissed-off bruin bent on revenge.

You'll be rich Nutagain!. Apple will need to replace all the phones destroyed by angry folks waking up, if you get a 10% royalty for the new phones they buy to replace them, wealth and 72 virgins will surely flow your way.

If that was the alarm that woke me up, chances are just as good that I'd kill myself as destroy my phone.

Dentists should play that woman's voice in their waiting rooms, so that when they started up the drill you'd completely relax thinking you were listening to choirs of angels.

The headlines are hilarious...

CBS news: ANCHORAGE, Alaska --A camper in Alaska learned a difficult lesson: sometimes when you pepper spray a bear, it eats your kayak.

Alaska Dispatch News: Video: Woman thanks Alaska bear for not eating kayak; bear promptly eats kayak,

Washington Post: Bear! This kayak isn’t even food! It doesn’t even taste good!

Daily News: 'Bear! Please stop breaking my things!' Kayaker has a meltdown in Alaska as black bear mauls her only means of transport after she left it unattended to go hiking.

Maybe the bear didn't like being pepper sprayed and wanted to get back at the kayak's owner?
