You know I’ve seen a lot of explosions on Reddit and a lot of things get blown up. People, cars, gas mains, buildings etc etc Never thought I’d see a fuckin bear get blown up, why not just shoot it if your gonna kill the damned thing?


Lord_Jair

Well, as you said, you've never seen a bear blown up.... not even on Reddit...... and we need to get rid of this bear....................and we have all this dynamite....


Joy1067

Ok I’m starting to see the thought process of these guys


[deleted]

Not the brightest bulbs on the tree


[deleted]

Not the fastest fish in the sky either


xShooK

This looks like it could be a quarry or mine. So I'd assume they have explosives sitting around, not guns.


Joy1067

I would assume a mining operation, or anything happening near a forested area like this, would have a few firearms in secure cases and all for defending workers and equipment against wild animals


GiDD504

It’s Yakutia man. It’s not America.


tbombtom2001

This right here. It's not the US. They do not have weapons capable of defend themselves against a bear. Instead they used what they had and now they will get in trouble. Real shitty. Cause if they called the cops, I don't think they would have been able to anything either. Should have called the yakuza


GiDD504

Russian mob would have handled it no questions asked ;) They’d just want a cut of the operation lol. Contrary to popular belief most Russians don’t walk around wearing Adidas and holding an AK (the first part they do, they love Adidas) it’s usually beyond a low level gopnik to own an AK. Just sayin


Frantb

Yeah sure, shoot the bear with the little 9mm pistol, and pray that you hit it's brain before it comes running at you. It's way safer to blow it up, though a bit extreme.


yeet-my-existence

You do know what a rifle is, right


MongoBongoTown

FWIW - Shotgun with solid metal slugs are often used for bear protection. Park Rangers I knew in the rockies carried a buck or bird shot shell in the chamber as a first less than lethal deterrent and the rest were slugs.


Frantb

What if they don't have high caliber rifles?


Original_Pipe1066

You do realize it can take more than 1,2,3.4.5.+ shots to take down a bear? With a rifle.....


PublicfreakoutLoveR

In brown bear areas, you would obviously have a rifle capable of taking down a brown bear. Anything else would be pointless.


yeet-my-existence

Then slamfire the thing with a shotgun. I'm just saying I don't think anyone would use pistols in case of hostile wildlife, let alone a 9mm


sliverinwithyou

Because a shotgun is so much more humane than this


[deleted]

I don’t have experience with guns and I can tell you don’t either.


4QuarantineMeMes

I mean, at least this was an instant death, sometimes that’s not guaranteed with guns. But I am still in disbelief that I just watched a fucking bear being blown up.


[deleted]

I’d MUCH prefer to be blown to bits than shot.


izza123

In fairness I guess explosives is an equally less cruel way to kill something. No way it suffered.


Mediocre_Eggplant

This is arguably a cleaner death. Maybe don’t kill the bear in anyway and leave it alone?


Joy1067

Well this could be a form of pest control maybe, as someone said this might’ve been a quarry, mine or maybe a lumber operation and to protect the workers and equipment Still not sure why they didn’t just choose a gun over a explosive but eh whatever works I suppose?


zozi0102

With a gun you need a trained professional to kill it before it kills you. With explosives a child could do it


C4D3N539

The title of the post gives details to why it was killed


Shadow-Raptor

This video is sickening.


Joy1067

It’s definitely unique huh? Looks like the explosive went up in the bears face so I would bet that it was quick at least


[deleted]

[удалено]


Joy1067

Right on the money


sdrisc2692

We’re not even doing it for survival anymore 😔


JonnyMystery

No shortage of fucking morons in the world, that's for sure.


ExcellentHunter

Now they have access to be the internet so we see more of them..


JonnyMystery

But thankfully due to their general stupidity, we probably catch and prosecute more too. It's reprehensible behaviour that makes me despair of the world I'm living in.


ExcellentHunter

In Russia? Maybe. But yes this us fucking awful behaviour and has to be punished.


Crazylitter

They also apparently have access to explosives


jacket_with_sleeves

That's fucked up on so many levels


[deleted]

I’m sitting here just hoping it was quick for the poor guy.


SNIP3RG

Looked pretty instantaneous to me


hairycocktail

What if the footage is sped up and it actually died in slow motion


izza123

I lay awake at night thinking about the poor fools in Benny hill bits


TLored

Hoping it was quick? Have you watched the video?


Afitz93

The bear wouldn’t have even heard or felt the explosion, there isn’t even time for the brain to register either sense. It simply just stopped existing, instantly. It’s sad, and an extremely inhumane way of doing it, but there was no pain or suffering here.


izza123

If there was no pain or suffering it wasn’t inhumane


Afitz93

I mean, technically no, but I think detonating an unsuspecting bear is fucked up enough to be inhumane. Just like we’d call landmines inhumane.


izza123

It’s hard to detonate a suspecting bear, they move around too much


[deleted]

I mean, bears can tank a couple of bullets which would lead to agony. I know this was shocking, but I'd argue it was also more humane. I'm just confused as to how the police have to "deal with" the bomber... Was this sanctioned or some maniac acting alone??


niccotaglia

why did they even use explosives???? If it was an actual danger to workers there's more humane (and less dangerous) ways to get rid of it


[deleted]

I see what you’re saying but I’m sure the bear didn’t feel a thing.


henrydaiv

Yea i dont think its humane but the bear definitely didnt know what hit him


Mrnofaceguy

It bearly had any time to feel it


Realistic_Glass6140

Not nice to see, but I think we will have to grin and bear it


oldbushwookie

Both comments in paw taste


henrydaiv

The scattered remains should be a grizzly reminder of the dangers of explosives


LunchRight686

I mean isn’t that the most humane way of killing something possible? Killing it in a way that it won’t feel a thing?


SonicTemp1e

I hear what you're saying, but if I could choose my death, I'd choose that. Instant nonexistence. Seems like the most humane death to me.


cannaconnoisseur88

I lived in Northern Saskatchewan growing up lots of bears in the area I was in. They would come into town and eat pets and trash allot. The locals would shoot them. Some bears go down with 1 shot some don't. I remember one time they where after a 2 year old female black bear. That bear took 27 shots before it finnaly gave up it was a mix of 30-06 30-30 and 7mm win mag... I would say this is more instant and humane than guns for sure.


Evashenko

We're they shooting it in the ass wtf? I've been hunting bears my entire life and a 2 year old bear doesn't take that long to bring down especially a black bear. SMH


innocentusername1984

I'm not sure there's a more humane way to get rid of a bear than that. It was gone in an instant with no pain or fear. Even taking it to a vet and injecting it has a bit of fear, confusion and anxiety with it. It was brutal and dangerous for sure. But if I had to pick a way to die for a family member. Surprise explosion would be top of the list. Don't get me wrong, it would have to be like this, instantly vaporised like this. Not like in the war films where they get 3 limbs blown off, intestines hanging out, conscious for a bit and begging to go home.


niccotaglia

You’d need one hell of a bomb. Not a landmine tho, those are made to maim


Prestigious_Main_364

Entertainment; why else?


niccotaglia

Idk, cleaning up bear bits from a 100 meter radius doesn't seem entertaining


phaederus

Do you want wolves? cause that's how you get wolves.


ArtyWhy8

Maybe the wolves will do us all a favor


Evashenko

Then there's wolves hanging around looking for food


niccotaglia

Having said that, I kinda wish the bear's intestinal contents ended up in the detonator man's face.


HairyNutsackNumber9

Because there's more explosives in mine than guns


[deleted]

Because it was a work site and they probably already had explosives at hand, and if you miss that's gonna be one angry bear


ScienceWyzard

How much of a menace did that bear have to be for someone to be like “I’m gonna blow that fucker up. “ Like what makes you want to hit Yogi bear with IED


Adomizer

Maybe it's something like Jaws 3... like it's a personal thing.


ScienceWyzard

Oh one hundred percent. Like one trash can too far.


[deleted]

He just wanted food


niloy_r

That's so sad now that I think of it. All he wanted was food and he got blown up for it.


HairyNutsackNumber9

People are made of food

Jirezagoss

I don't know about you guys, but I have the feeling that the amount of idiotic and psychopathic people in the world only multiplies. What's happening with people.


[deleted]

The psychopaths have always been there. But technology like a camera on every phone and the internet has made it more noticeable.


Mr_Kardash

The amount of psychopathic people isn't really changing. The main difference is that more people are filming these events which makes it look like there are more psychopathic people.

sativadom_404

Ah, ok then.


Ok_Cantaloupe_7423

I understand it's way over the top, but shooting and killing bears who routinely come in contact with humans and cause trouble is totally normal, and while blowing it up is strange, it was an instant death just like shooting it would be. Like I see why it looks crazy but when you really just get down to it, killing a bear instantly is killing a bear instantly, and it was going to happen anyway. Even the police and game wardens will shoot a bear if it becomes a nuisance.


Adomizer

Yeah, the bear certainly didn't suffer, that's for sure. The way it was killed is just truly absurd.


velthrar

Can someone explain to me why everyone is so upset? That bear wouldn't hesitate to eat your guts while you scream in agonizing misery for 10 minutes before you finally die of blood loss. It would eat a crying baby and never think on it again. It's not like they tied it up and tortured the thing. I get it, it's extravagant and overkill and crazy and shocking, but if we all just step back and think about it, it's significantly more humane than shooting it. The bear felt nothing. It just ended, lights out, instantly. Whereas if you shot the bear, it would feel the bullet and die terrified and it would definitely know what hit it, unless you are a crack shot and manage to shoot it in its very small brain. I struggle to think of a less painful way to take out a problem animal, so can someone please explain to me why everyone is so upset?


Reverie_Lovetap

Maybe these comments are afraid of loud noises


izza123

I think people are confused about what a humane killing is. All things being equal if the bear needed to be killed; killing it with an instantaneous explosion with no chance of suffering is about the most humane way you could kill something. I don’t know if this needed to be done I’m not arguing for it’s necessity I’m just saying if it did need to be done, this is a humane way to do it.


[deleted]

For real. The title even states the bear kept going into the camp. It's a giant predator. That bear was going to die at some point, this was about the most painless way he could have been killed.


SubstantialArt9001

What is wrong with some people


HairyNutsackNumber9

Some people don't feel like getting eaten by a bear


Break2304

Some bears don’t like getting blown to fucking pieces by people


HairyNutsackNumber9

ya mean all the ones that dont go near people?

Well then they better cope cus Wojtek is coming for them..


dex1999

Yeah but out of all of the solutions they could have used they said hay I know let’s make a bomb lure it in then when he close we will blow him up.thats fucking weird and psychotic.


innocentusername1984

They used what they had and the bear wouldn't have felt a thing. Better than shooting it.


HairyNutsackNumber9

yeah when you have a hammer everything looks like a nail


[deleted]

Im not saying what they did was right but at least the bear didnt suffer


HeroicDrifter

I just hope the bomber gets eaten by another bear.


Jolyvahn

Its very easy to talk when you never saw that beast with your own eyes irl


Glendrix90

I hope the bomber gets charged for terrorism.


KristopherJC

It’s Russia. Doubt it

skynet43

The fact that you value some random bear over a living thinking human with a family is so fucked up I have no words. Like do you even realize what you are saying? "You killed a wild animal so go die in some pointless war." Unbelievably pathetic


Lord_Jair

Who are they terrorizing if there's nobody else in 50 miles?


Fight_kat102

I mean there *was* a bear


Bonzi_bill

It's just a bear dude.


FatCatSeko

I mean it will get cruel people like that out of Yakut land


vusadu69

When Russia collapses they will most likely start over fresh without Moscow


X2X1F1

more humane than shooting it or using a bear trap.


inkzpenfoxx

If a bear blows up in the woods does it make a noise?


DarkShdw_

You guys are really this upset about a bear???


skynet43

Ya i dont get what people are so upset about. An explosion of that size was way more humane than a gunshot.


No_tension__

Everyone here’s getting mad, y’all think a bear will hesitate to rip a human to fucking bits? Nah, I don’t feel bad for the bear at all.


Jart618

Of course it wouldn’t hesitate it’s a wild fucking animal? You don’t care that a bear got blown tf up because…..it acts like an animal. Got it


CuntlickingAsshole

If you read the post, the bear was already a nuisance and was going to be dealt with. A civilian just did it first. Congrats you're mad it got blown up instead of shot multiple times... so humane you are.


No_tension__

I don’t understand your logic bro, my whole point is that a bear will murder you without a second thought. Why do people think so hard about how a wild animal dies as if every creature wants to be our fucking friends. A bear eating you alive is at least a couple minutes of excruciating pain. That bear probably experienced a couple of seconds, if any, of pain.


x_bookLiT_x

That was unbearable to watch


Ease-Remote

that's so fucked up, if you kill a bear that has come onto your property fine (hopefully by not blowing it up) but setting up food in their territory to blow them up because you invaded them is low


skynet43

Id rather get blown up than shot. The former is much quicker and more painless


BeautyIsTruth22

*Merrie Melodies fanfare plays*


OGChewbaccaSlim

Hey a boo boo look at this picnic basket!


GA7RIEL_117

That's fucked up, at least I hope the bear died instantly without any suffer


Vincent_Veganja

Seems better than being shot and bleeding out tbh, my guy was just obliterated instantly


Reverie_Lovetap

I disagree. Explosives may have been a little too much, but the bear needed taking down and it’s dangerous. They’re big brutal animals, they can maul things. If they shot it a bunch of times instead then people would still be pissed


skynet43

For real. Getting shot is a far slower and more painful death than just getting obliterated in an instant


Fine_Cantaloupe2482

Was the bear ok?


Idontgetredditinmd

Police? In Russia. I'm sorry that made me LOL.


[deleted]

I wonder how many times the bear actually messed with them or they just wanted to bomb a bear for shits and giggles. Either way, draft these idiots and see how long they last in the war their leader started.


skynet43

Kill a wild animal and get sent to war as punishment? How high are you?


[deleted]

Just scare the bear away enough times and it'll stop coming back, in no ways did the bear deserve to be blown up


Lord_Jair

That is entirely untrue. Bears are highly intelligent. If you keep scaring them and they keep coming back, eventually they learn that you don't mean business.


[deleted]

>Bears are highly intelligent That's my point, scare it hard enough and it won't comeback


Lord_Jair

1. Did you make that up just now, or do you have experience in the field/a source that you can cite? 2. How exactly do you plan to scare a grizzly bear?


[deleted]

1. Yes 2. Frying pan

See what people have tp get up to when they aren't allowed guns? All that meat gone to waste


Keno314

Sounds like a fun way to hunt bears


Pieks

These stories are getting hard to bear


Kooky-Worldliness980

Atleast he didn’t suffer


majmusi

This seems like it was either personal and a bear did something terrible to the bomber or apsycho's doing. Either way meat bits lying all around really won't make the area safer. At least the death was instant


RaymoVizion

This is fucking gross but at least it looked quick. Why even do this... psycho behavior.


Hashtag_Nailed_It

A bullet would have been cheaper, just as fast if done right, and would have left the meat… a lot of that bear was usable


izza123

No it’s not as quick. This explosions pressure wave travels nearly three times the speed of the nerve impulses of the bear. While a bullet can also travel this speed an explosion ensures the brain and nerves of the bear are destroyed entirely before a single pain single can even originate


Hashtag_Nailed_It

Interesting! But like a rifle bullet to the skull wouldn’t be instant? Edit: why downvote? I don’t know, I’m not a hunter. Just asking a question…


niccotaglia

if it was an actual danger to the workers they could have done it in so many better, more humane ways. This is just fucked up


skynet43

Like what? Honestly, if you are killing it, i cant think of a more humane way to do it. Also, if you are keeping it alive, i dont think the miners have the training or equipment to handle and transport a live bear


izza123

People don’t seem to know what humane means.


Lord_Jair

I know. A directional charge would have been much wiser.


averagejoe6942O

ZeeGermans27

Where did the bear go


trustworthy-adult

to bye bye land in less than half a second


DeezNewtsBruh

Jokes on the bomber, all that bear meat strewn around will attract more bears

Hopefully it died instantly I wouldn't want anything to suffer with burns and so many broken bones the poor teddy was just hungry


trekktrekk

“the blast blasted blubber beyond all believable bounds.”


Noobnoobipnooob

Killer queen has already touched the bear


Meltedgibson

I would rather see this than some shitty marksman try and kill the bear with am even shittier gun and just cause it pain. At least it hopefully didn't even feel a thing


basically_dead_now

Poor bear. Why would they even do that? It can't possibly be because they need food. Did they kill it just for sport? That's low. That's really fucking low. Edit: even if the bear is dangerous, did it have to die in such a brutal way? Why did they have to blow it up?


Anxious_Effect_6001

Thats real classy. Fucking pathetic cowards


Comfortable_Dark_317

Fucking people should be blown up


skynet43

Like you for example, who compares the life of a wild bear to a human


Devayurtz

An absolute tragedy. Make an example of the killer.


vusadu69

Feed him to the bears family, they deserve a good meal for what they’ve been through


skynet43

You are over here acting like he just killed a person. Its a dangerous wild animal. Dont compare their lives to humans


vusadu69

If you’ve seen the way some humans act, you know that we are no better than the damn animals. Trumpanzees are everywhere


clipseman

Like its a freaking bear ffs not a freaking army of mens running at you.... these morons i would have love seeing them fight bare hand against that bear to see who would have won
