    Yes it DOES seem counter intuitive to NOT run, but it is correct to not run and instead turn and face the bear. (But good luck with that!!! SO incredibly SCARY!!! Best to really be aware at all times if hiking in bear country...I've been there...pepper spray is one option but never needed to use it....thank goodness!

    As a former staffer in Canada’s national parks, I encountered grizzly bears at close quarters on a trail on four occasions over 30 years. One, it’s extremely difficult not to run if you feel you have the option and the space. But if you felt an attack was inevitable, playing dead is recommended. Two, the guy laughing and laughing repeatedly is a douche! Three, those hikers were still some distance away, maybe out of visual contact, so it was a good thing to run. And four, I’m curious to know whether park officials knew there was a grizzly up that valley. All in all, a tense situation.

    This was a run-of-the-mill bear encounter, just handled in the wrong way. When you go backcountry camping in Glacier, the NPS makes you watch a video that shows you what to do in this exact situation. Seriously, this exact situation. This bear has seen lots of hikers, and the bear handled it better than the hikers did.

    I'd say making it home with out any harm was a right thing to do. That bear stopped in his tracks when he saw them scatter and run and turned and went the other way. It confused him. That is sometimes what prey does in the wild. Outmaneuvering not outrunning is the key.

But you don't need to outrun the bear. You just need to outrun your 2 buddies! If they're running and you're standing their like a f*cking idiot because you listen to the advice of those morons, guess who is dinner for the bear? YOU ARE! Also, the running seemed to work here anyway. It startled the bear and made it stop. I wish the bear had kept going up the hill and attacked those great advice givers.

    @@kbotah2023 yes I spotted them too, it doesn't means it's not lame. The report made it sound like if it was something out of this world. I actually read the story before watching the video.

    Why is this funny? Better them than you? Would you go swimming in shark infested waters knowing at any moment you are suddenly on the menu? Then why go hiking in an area unprepared with the proper knowledge of how to stay alive. This kind of activity. That is supposed to be "fun" makes no sense if you have to constantly be looking over your shoulder. In other words. Getting away with robbing a bank is no good knowing that at any moment you will. Not if. Get caught.
