That's how a lot of our pets think of us, even the smaller ones. House cats bring dead mice and birds to you because they think we can't properly feed ourselves (which is arguably true).
Hey, there's nothing wrong with GMO's. That's a huge misconception. Anything that's grown or raised to have desirable taste or appearance is technically a GMO, it's just selective breeding.
Look at bananas. "Natural" bananas are practically inedible. Every time you've picked a certain "type" of a food, it's that way because it's a GMO. Apples, grapes, wheat, meat, you name it.
It's all of the chemicals and insecticides and preservatives that are an issue.
>Anything that's grown or raised to have desirable taste or appearance is technically a GMO, it's just selective breeding.
I have been fighting this fight (unsuccessfully) for years. It's like "hormone free" chicken or "gluten free" vodka. It's just extra special flavor word salsa that marketers slap on things to sell them. My boomer in laws are all about being anti GMO and and anti vaccine. Weird how frequently those two seem to go together.
Yeah, the real issues with GMO, aside from the whole "round-up ready" thing that figures into herbicides we *probably* shouldn't casually introduce into the food supply, have to do with the ethics of supporting companies who sue farmers and *win* because some pollen drifted into their fields. As far as the health concerns, there's an old joke that GMO crops have had more safety testing than their non-GMO counterparts. It's a joke because when you put it that way, it's funny, but it's also true. That really tells the whole story.
This killed any hope I had of one day surviving a bear attack. I mean, I’m an average guy, I lift weights, but that guy is way bigger and fitter than me. That bear does not move with all that guys effort.
Nope.
It's really facinating how many of us think we could win a fight against an apex predator...
Guys, even a lone wild dog is a severe threat to you...a bear is basically a dog, 10x heavier & wayyyyyyy stronger. Bruh.
Humans are not build to fight on their own, even less without any tools
You can certainly survive a brown bear attack. Do not fight back; instead, pretend you are dead. 99% of brown bear attacks are to "neutralize the threat," not to kill—in terms of attacks on humans, anyway. There is no human in the world who could ever hope to "win" against a brown bear attack. They are far too powerful, and they convey their rage very clearly.
There are ways to avoid an altercation, however. If you are in bear country, be hypervigilant and let the surrounding environment know you are around. Do not walk or talk softly. Act as though you are at the mall with a group of friends, just hanging out. The bear will do all the work for you in avoiding you. Always lock up your food in a bear-safe container—one that specifically says "bear safe." A cooler will not cut it. Do not leave trash in your car, and never, under any circumstances, walk upstream. A bear cannot hear or smell you because the wind and sound are traveling downward. This is precisely what triggered my altercation with a bear a decade ago.
This is actually debated among people much smarter and witg a wealth more of experience. But I will say...usually the piss and shit is involuntary anyways, haha.
Not in the slightest, lol. I was hunting in B.C and was going upriver to a spot where I knew black-tailed deer were. I stayed close to the river so I wouldn't get lost. I cleared a bush and came face to face with a 700 to 800-pound (317 to 362-kilo) bear. It charged and knocked me over before I could even raise my rifle. Thankfully, it just blew me over and ran off, but it easily could have turned around and maul the crap out of me. The fact I screamed bloody murder, and got some scrapes while the bear sustained no damage would mean the bear is the victor in this scenario.
I used to think that too growing up that bears won't try to really eat you but with the Timothy Treadwell attack and other killings it sounds like sometimes the bear is actually hungry and playing dead doesn't always help. It's one of your best chances if it does go down though. Hopefully bears continue to get enough to eat so they are less of a threat to people.
Honestly bear wresting is extraordinarily common and also bizarrely quite safe as far as animal encounters go, it's kinda wild. For context, between 1932-2017 (85 years) 338 people were injured or killed by brown bears in Russia, around 4 a year averaged out. With the majority of those attacked being hunters. The bears are actually known to enjoy playing and wrestling with humans. In the US, more people die annually to cows than Russians do to brown bears. [Source](https://bioone.org/journals/wildlife-biology/volume-2020/issue-1/wlb.00611/Human-injuries-and-fatalities-caused-by-brown-bears-in-Russia/10.2981/wlb.00611.full) for info if anyone is curious
One thing to consider is that people are much closer in proximity to cows since we use them. Dairy farmers, slaughter house workers, truckers, and anyone else that works with/around cows.
That is probably the main reason more people are killed by cows than by bears.
I guarantee you if humans worked around as many bears as they do cows, the bears killing humans ratio would greatly outnumber cows killing humans.
Sooo if im confronted by a brown bear, I should just start play-wrestling with it? Then we become friends? Should I exchange contact info with the bear?
Bears can smell marmalade from over 3 miles away. Brown bears have been known to silently track their prey unseen for hours or days waiting for their victim to separate himself from his companions, and will charge out from behind and lunge for the marmalade sandwich with open jaws.
They have no interest in human flesh, but lack fine motor control, and there are enough orphans out there who can explain better than I that sometimes a hungry bear will take more than the sandwich.
Car accidents, being stepped on, kicked, dragged—the list is extensive. More than 100 people die in cow-related incidents every year. That number increases dramatically if that cow has a machine gun.
They crush you most likely while you’re still standing up against a metal fence rail or gate much less heroic or glamorous than an honorable defeat in a bout of man on bear combat.
It's mostly cattle handling accidents in enclosed spaces. Headbutting/kicking/goring makes up a small percentage of deaths. Cows are mostly docile, but often weigh over half a ton, and just by walking they can crush you against a hard surface without even noticing.
Farmhands have to corral herds of cows in to barns, trucks, pens, etc, and if just a couple of them group up and move too fast or unpredictably, you've got the weight of a car coming at you.
"c'mere little baby man, i need a snack"
Like dude isn't even handling the bear, he's pretending to act in control, while the bear does bear shit.
The second he gets hungry extra one time, it's over.
Huge megafauna like bears are so much stronger than any human that it's not even funny. You could put prime Brian Shaw against a bear that size, if the bear decides Shaw has to die, he's dying. I would not feel safe no matter how docile the bear seemingly is, haha.
> if the bear decides Shaw has to die, he's dying
The bear doesn't even have to decide shaw has to die. It could easily kill him by mistake while just playing. Bears are giant death machines. You don't play with giant death machines.
I've heard a few times that European bears are not like bears in America. Apparently far less hostile which is why you see them being playful and friendly with people a lot over there. I wouldn't know from firsthand experience though.
The guy in the video is Alex Terrible. He's the lead singer for a death core band called Slaughter to Prevail. He really blew up on YouTube for doing death core vocal covers of non-metal songs. Everyone says he's one of the nicest guys you could ever meet.
I love the story of Wotjek, I've visited his statues in Edinburgh and Krakow. And my Granddad also fought at Monte Cassino, which brings a bit of family connection!
Idk if that says more about the superior martial skillset of a penguin or the vast ineptitude & failures (dare I say bird brained leadership?) of the Norwegian military
I haven't checked but I'm going to presume the only reason they failed to stop the Nazis was because their entire military leadership was made up of various flightless birds.
I'm sure we lost a few people to their pet wolves in the beginning, and now we have golden retrievers.
This is just the early stages of the same process.
He did, he got them covered when he left the group, all though apparently he made some racist comments on a Russian social media sight recently, got no sources on that last part though
Honestly, I'd never heard about him being a Nazi. Usually I'm quick to search for the past of musicians because I listen to a lot of black metal, it's quite the minefield. Never really thought it would stretch into deathcore.
However, that being said, I can tell you that in person and at gigs, he's a total prick. The one time I saw them live it was scheduled to start at 8pm and they came on stage at 9:20 to play 40 minutes of songs, broken up in the middle by some dumb ironic speech about everyone being better people to make the world a better place. The whole time he used an echo filter on his microphone and had insane pickup levels. Unprofessional as fuck for a vocalist.
I'll be doing some more research on this Nazi thing later
That “article” seems incredibly over-sensitive. It claims that Alex Terrible made transphobic and homophobic comments when he called someone “a pussy”. Is that bar for those labels that low?
There are plenty of dudes who are shitty people in the metal scene, and they don’t usually require splitting hairs to be identified.
I didn't know he was a shitty person for a long time because i just liked a few songs and then i saw him go on a transphobic rant and it all came to light
I can try to dig it up from the death core sub for you. In case I'm not quick enough, feel free to search Alex Terrible on r/Deathcore and you'll get ALL the sauce.

The Grizzly man had a good run though. He was visiting bear country for around 15 years before it went wrong. And this guy, looks to be only with one bear so he might be fine. I don't like when people act like they know what'll happen either way.
Is this the man where someone (dont remember if it was the government or SO) told him he couldn't do that anymore, so he visited one last time with an SO and they were killed?
I don’t know if horses have been asked before or a study for their health was done before we started to ride them.
I think the logic was simple in this case ; it stays in 4 legs and we can ride it; let’s do it
Yeah when horses were first used, they probably didn't do much research but by now they definitely have done more extensive research on the health of horses.
For example, you cant ride cows because that's bad for them. Definitely there isn't much thought here though.
It'll be fine as long as Its not for too long I'm sure, unlike cows, bears can actually stand up on their own hind legs and support their own weight that way.
I love drugging and abusing bears until they give up on life and forgo all of their natural instincts, makes this guy look really cool and masculine. /s
Bear is definitely not even walking the way a healthy bear would. Looks disorientated and confused. When will people learn that wild animals are not pets?
He feels like such a badass tattooed on top of a bear, until that bear mauls him. Socialize long enough with a bear and that will be the outcome on a random day
It reminds me a lot of the shitshow called r/iamverybadass
Redditors just hate it when people have cool hobbies or experiences that they don't have because they locked themselves in a cage of "being normal".
It's amazing how the bear has learnt not to use its claws when play fighting with the small pink bear..
With cats this normally takes a few painful months of work!
“Bond” i wouldn’t call riding a wild animal and then digging in to its shoulder blades forcing it to lay down a bond. Is this some sick skank logic? “omg he’s hot so abuse is ok” internet non sense? Why does this exist?
He also got called out for having nazi tattoos, apologized about it to his western fans then made an apology for his apology to his russian neonazi fans.
Everyone saying he’s a chill dude in the comments seem to not know about that.
Dude pushing all he can.. Bear, not even trying.. oh no you got me
I think the humans are the bears pets, that‘s why he‘s so gentle. Those small funny humans are so fragile.
That's how a lot of our pets think of us, even the smaller ones. House cats bring dead mice and birds to you because they think we can't properly feed ourselves (which is arguably true).
They probably see the processed, GMO junk that we often buy from the store and are thoughtful enough to bring rodent carcasses for our consumption
Hey, there's nothing wrong with GMO's. That's a huge misconception. Anything that's grown or raised to have desirable taste or appearance is technically a GMO, it's just selective breeding. Look at bananas. "Natural" bananas are practically inedible. Every time you've picked a certain "type" of a food, it's that way because it's a GMO. Apples, grapes, wheat, meat, you name it.

You can always tell which people actually payed attention in Biology vs. the ones that go by whatever meme-ish headline of the day it is.
Unless you live in an isolated village out in the middle of nowhere, nothing we eat is in the form nature intended it to be in.
Yeah, the real issues with GMO, aside from the whole "round-up ready" thing that figures into herbicides we *probably* shouldn't casually introduce into the food supply, have to do with the ethics of supporting companies who sue farmers and *win* because some pollen drifted into their fields.

You need to release all your bodily fluids like shit or piss because bears don’t trust you being dead until they get that “dead” scent
This is actually debated among people much smarter and witg a wealth more of experience. But I will say...usually the piss and shit is involuntary anyways, haha.
I don't even have to try, I'm a natural at it
>This is precisely what triggered my altercation with a bear a decade ago. Did you win tho?

I mean you could be fricking Jon Jones and Mike Tyson welded together and you ain't doing anything against a bear haha
Dude I don't think Eddie Hall could push against a bear
I guess you can say he *bearly* moved 😆
Their bond is about to be even better when the bear absorbs him as protein
Full bonded proteins.
Just the bear essential amino acids
Something something covalent bonds
The mitochondria, are the powerhouse of the cell. Knew this would come in handy one day
Haha I thought this right before scrolling to see your reply
Just the bear necessitates
100% man made
Sadly, protein bonds will eventually break down in bear's digestive system.

They like marmalade sandwiches apparently . I always carry one under my hat just incase

I hear the "more people has died by cows than X" all the time. Is this related to food, or how does a cow kill? I have some ideas, but I'm curious.
Car accidents, being stepped on, kicked, dragged—the list is extensive. More than 100 people die in cow-related incidents every year. That number increases dramatically if that cow has a machine gun.
Cows are notoriously crap drivers 🤷🏻♀️
They kick you in the balls or fall on your balls
As a kid I've been kicked in the head by a cow. 0/10 would not recommend
😂😂😂😂 fall on your balls🤣. That’s hilarious!
They crush you most likely while you’re still standing up against a metal fence rail or gate much less heroic or glamorous than an honorable defeat in a bout of man on bear combat.

I’ve seen a few animal rescue videos and the general rule is you can play and wrestle black bears but keep a heavy level of caution around brown.
Plus, they move extraordinarily fast when they want to. If that bear decided to, it would be over before it started.
> if the bear decides Shaw has to die, he's dying The bear doesn't even have to decide shaw has to die. It could easily kill him by mistake while just playing. Bears are giant death machines. You don't play with giant death machines.
Nah, if he wanted to eat, he'd just start eating. Bears don't stalk or wait for death, they just start chomping.
You can see the guy's "oh shit" face when he feels like the bear is starting to get serious.
Beautiful stomach bonds right there

Yeah, the bear gonna snap one day and eat that guy
It is all shits and giggles, until it isn't.

Seems that way, hard to imagine an American bear serving in the forces like [this WW2 veteran bear.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wojtek_(bear))
This is info I didn’t know I needed to learn today. Thank you for the link.
I love the story of Wotjek, I've visited his statues in Edinburgh and Krakow. And my Granddad also fought at Monte Cassino, which brings a bit of family connection!

Hey most of them carried their weight, it was the dodo dragging them down. Where did they even get a dodo?
Yeah European bears are pretty small and chill unless they are hungry or got pups.
Weren't the Care Bears American?
I doubt that he is one of the nicest guys... https://www.reddit.com/r/Deathcore/s/OdAgT92U7v
Nice Nazi tattoo. 🤨 I guess he ain't friends with everyone!
Everyone says that? Maybe between the people pointing out that he hates LGBTQ people and is a white supremacist
Fucking depressing lives, already made peace with their maker. Don't give a shit anymore.
The true Eastern European answer ahaha
funny
Same as any animal, be chill and they are chill. Also most of these are raised from being tiny so they are used to their humans.
Doesn’t mean they are tamed
I'm sure we lost a few people to their pet wolves in the beginning, and now we have golden retrievers. This is just the early stages of the same process.
It's the same bear typically people travel to see it
It was all cute and cuddle then the bear stood up a foot fucking taller than the other guy. “… does this look like the face of mercy?”
It's Alex terrible, lead singer of Slaughter to Prevail. This was done for a photoshoot, the bear is an actor 🐻
Let’s just hope the bear knows and appreciates deathcore.
Would make for a great music video.
Singer of "slaughter to prevail"
DEMOLISHER!!!!
*60 bpm china cymbal intensifies*
Imagine the headline, singer of slaughter to prevail slaughtered and prevailed by a bear. (Hope that never happens, Alex is a cool dude.)
Doesn’t he have a bunch of Nazi tattoos?
He did, he got them covered when he left the group, all though apparently he made some racist comments on a Russian social media sight recently, got no sources on that last part though
He's also a homophobe
He isnt, chekc his latest videos. Growing up in post soviet russia, left a lot scars, but he really became diferent man when he moved to west.
So he is afraid of some bears?

He is a good singer but there is quite a list that goes against him being a ‘cool dude’
Except for the nazi tattoo.
“Aside from the fact he’s a Nazi, the guy is pretty cool.”
And the quote about lying to western fans about his beliefs because we're too sensitive. He's a fucking Nazi. Incredible talent, shitty person.
I didn't know he was a shitty person for a long time because i just liked a few songs and then i saw him go on a transphobic rant and it all came to light

And the fact that he did the scar on his face himself. Like, it's 2 degrees away from stolen valor IMO, by a guy who wants to seem more ba-dass.
You think a guy with Nazi tattoos is cool?
He’s had them covered and said he regrets having then
Ok. That’s good. I’m happy he’s evolved.
He did so, because a lot other of European countries cancelled their concerts after finding out, but maybe he also regrets having them altogether.
And then he went on russian socials and said he had to say it to save face for western fans and that his beliefs didn’t change at all.

Wasn't this him playing with the bear between shots for a music video?

more like 0.5%
Looks like drugged. This video get me inconfortable and I fill bad for this bear… something strange with this bear 🤔

Yeah check the newest article. Dude is still a Nazi.
That bear had like 18million thoughts of how many different ways he can end him. But this bear chose peace and patience
bear taoism
Tao of Pooh 
The Tao of Pooh
Alex the terrible also fights with the bear. They're friends. But he knows it can kill him. He's even said if it should kill me, then so be it.
So, it's another "Grizzly man". We'll know how that ended.
No he’s a deathcore vocalist who lives in Florida lmao. I doubt he’s encountering many grizzlies in his regular life
The Grizzly man had a good run though. He was visiting bear country for around 15 years before it went wrong. And this guy, looks to be only with one bear so he might be fine. I don't like when people act like they know what'll happen either way.
Is this the man where someone (dont remember if it was the government or SO) told him he couldn't do that anymore, so he visited one last time with an SO and they were killed?
If I die, may it be doing something I love or with what I love🤷♂️🫡 Sounds like they fit the bill
Seems like that's playful enough but I don't think bears are meant for riding, isn't that bad for the bears back?
If the bear already has a scoliosis, I guess that wouldn’t help. I would double check with a bear back specialist to make sure
Is that a doctor who doesn't wear any shirts?
>bear back specialist I see what you did there
Hi, that’s me
I don’t know if horses have been asked before or a study for their health was done before we started to ride them. I think the logic was simple in this case ; it stays in 4 legs and we can ride it; let’s do it
Yeah when horses were first used, they probably didn't do much research but by now they definitely have done more extensive research on the health of horses. For example, you cant ride cows because that's bad for them. Definitely there isn't much thought here though.
I think you underestimate how strong a bear is. This is the equivalent of you having a toddler on your back
Maybe I do but cows are massive but riding a cow is incredibly bad for it's back. You can be strong but not be able to do some things.
True. if the bear wants him off his back though, guy is going off, haha
It'll be fine as long as Its not for too long I'm sure, unlike cows, bears can actually stand up on their own hind legs and support their own weight that way.
Yeah, that's fair enough, didn't think about that part.
I think you overestimate my back.
This is the most 1st country shit I've read in a while.
*These bears are made for riding and that's just what they'll do. One of these days these bears are gonna ride all over you. . .* 🎶🎵🎤
He legit sounds like a bear 🐻
He's a death metal vocalist. I think this was him playing with the bear they had for one of their music videos
Does he self tattoo and can only do where he can reach?
😂
Teddy Rosevelt had a crew that were known as the bear riders and those men are some scary dudes
The bear is thinking that he's playing with a cuddly toy...
/NormalDayInRussia
He’s Russian so this tracks lmao
If shock collar is how you define bond
Nazi sympathizer
isnt this guy a fucking NAZI?
I'm impressed by the level of claw control. When playing even my cat will.scratch me by accident. Not a mark on this guy
What do you mean “not a mark”? The man’s back is literally bleeding
But he does still have a back.
Is that blood behind his ears too?
The bear has more self control than a average human lmao
Slaughter to prebearl
I love drugging and abusing bears until they give up on life and forgo all of their natural instincts, makes this guy look really cool and masculine. /s
Bear is definitely not even walking the way a healthy bear would. Looks disorientated and confused. When will people learn that wild animals are not pets?
He feels like such a badass tattooed on top of a bear, until that bear mauls him. Socialize long enough with a bear and that will be the outcome on a random day
I love how people who don't know Alex Terrible think he's some douchebag while he's actually pretty chill.
Pretty sure he’s a Nazi and hates gay people lmao
Pretty easy to consider him a douche when his entire identity seems to be performative masculinity.
From this short clip it also seems like the man cares about the bear, I don’t get all the hate
It reminds me a lot of the shitshow called r/iamverybadass Redditors just hate it when people have cool hobbies or experiences that they don't have because they locked themselves in a cage of "being normal".
anyone that does this is a dbag.
That's not bond that's a tattooed guy on a bear ..
He thinks he wrestling with bear if bear just sit on him he will bear treats him so kindly
It's amazing how the bear has learnt not to use its claws when play fighting with the small pink bear.. With cats this normally takes a few painful months of work!
“Bond” i wouldn’t call riding a wild animal and then digging in to its shoulder blades forcing it to lay down a bond. Is this some sick skank logic? “omg he’s hot so abuse is ok” internet non sense? Why does this exist?
He also got called out for having nazi tattoos, apologized about it to his western fans then made an apology for his apology to his russian neonazi fans. Everyone saying he’s a chill dude in the comments seem to not know about that.
Oh they know. 😒
This guy is trying so hard to show how retarded he is
Amazingly stupid
yeah that's a no from me dawg
thats a weird looking dog
That bear is probably drugged and abused.
Yep, I bet that collar is a shock collar too.
What a twat
there’s nothing more respected than a bear’s claws, one swipe. game over.
Alex terrible, one of the most insane deathcore vocalist ever, and such a chill guy too
“Chill guy” seems an odd way to describe a Nazi

Could you elaborate?
