That bear was curious, not a huge threat...I've had a young sow charge me 3 x's within two feet snapping whoofing and popping her teeth..now that'l get your attention...lol

That would get me to checking my shorts, too!!! :p

Just seeing a bear puts up the hair on my neck. Comes down to how much experience you have with bears. As long as I have a weapon I'm better with it.

that will get your attention, for sure. i'll bet there was a gun real close by.

not in my case.. all I had was a good solid stick that I saw laying there..I just stood my ground waved the stick and yelled at the bear...then looked around above me to see where the cubs were, spotted them and backed away from that spot...mumma just stood and watched me until she figured i was not a threat anymore..she said something and cubs came down and off they went

Being from IL seeing a bear in the wild was a first for me on my DIY Idaho bear hunt in the spring of 2010. He walked to within 30 yards of my blind and was looking in at me. I was reading as it was early and I did not expect a bear for another 2 hours. My heart was pumping as if a 180 inch whitetail was below me. Apparently the bear in the video wasn't a shooter. No way could I have waited as long as the camera man did to alert the bear to my presence. I would have been telling him to get as soon as he was at the bottom of the ladder.
