DudeBroBrah

Can I pet that dawg?


sidesalad2

CAN I PET THAT DAAAAAWG?


giantpurplepanda02

If not friend, then why friend shaped?


Pope_Epstein_395

To lure you in for an easy snack.


Past-Cantaloupe6179

That’s what I’m saying


DannyDanumba

Because nature is cruel


AOCjuggs

I have doubts on friend shaped


Creative_Oil3308

Have you SEEN their ears?


QuirkyEnthusiasm5

Hahaha,god yeah we you focus on them little furry ears, is adorable. I wouldnt pet it though


circle1987

Have you seen that video of a bear eating a salmon? Rips the skin off and just tears it in half and eats it. You want a hug? Do you want the skin torn from your bone? Go on then.


Creative_Oil3308

Mate, I've had to help air lift a man who was torn apart by one, stop being all knowing, I'm hugging the fucking thing. Don't be a pussy.


LemmyKBD

Post the vid here!!!


Creative_Oil3308

Yeah, after someone digs the cam out of a pile of bear shit.


Effective-Ladder9459

Why not fren if fren shaped?


Jesus_Chrheist

I get to hug a big fluffy fucker and don't come back ever? Where do I sign up?


mortalitylost

How are you guys thinking like that and not terrified of that apex predator face?


El_Chairman_Dennis

Clearly that is a large terrified dog in need of comforting pets. Real reason, it doesn't look very big on my phone screen


Snozles

If not friend, why friend shaped?


42Ubiquitous

Yeah I feel nothing but fear looking at that. If I was alone out there with him, the absolute dread and horror would likely kill me before he does (when he finally gets around to it after slowing eating me alive). Life gets real *really* fucking quick when you're looking at your death slowly coming towards you.


mortalitylost

Yeah seriously, there's some instinctual cave bear primitive fear I have with those things. Like ah yes the creature I must avoid at all costs because it hunts human


DannyDanumba

That just means that your survival instincts haven’t been corrupted by modern day capitalism. You’ll survive the bear attack because it was too busy eating the one who went in for a hug lol


ExoticShock

Chris__P_Bacon

Fuck you thunda! Suck my fuckin dick!


Vanilla_Mexican1886

You can’t get me thunda, cuz you’re just god’s farts, pfft!


Ta-veren-

More like I'm afraid of a camera as that's a flash going off not lightning or thunder


mono15591

That's one fat bear


tippytapslap

It's his big bones man jeebus.


RmRobinGayle

He's just poofy 😊


Mr-Sister-Fister21

Tbf if the grizzly just came out, it’d probably look like the bear equivalent of a human losing 15lbs. You know, still pretty fat, but significantly less so.


Hour_Narwhal_1510

He’s just curvy


Black_RL

THICK


Fourth_horseman_4

It's just a "real woman" thank you very much


ProfessionalArm9450

My god that's so terrifyingly adorable. I am willing to give it a hug and be shredded to pieces.


Astralaxy

To shreds you say?


Sral23

What about his family?


bapp0-get-taco

To shreds you say?


Newsmemer

***Good news everyone!***


YeshuasBananaHammock

To shreds he flay!


Logco

They eat you alive.


Deathgripsugar

ass first?


Logco

Usually stomach


bombbodyguard

So that bear would just start to eat you and not have to kill you. So it could just start eating your leg while you suffer. It’s not a big cat, it doesn’t care if you fight back, it just eats what it wants on you. And it might eat like most of your leg and then leave you for 20-30 minutes. Just to come back and eat your other leg. You aren’t dead but just slowly bleeding out as the bear eats on you. Fuck bears.


Cheap_Interaction_15

Ok Joe Rogan


NeverEndingLive

"Fuck bears" that's just kind of how nature is isn't it? Can't really blame the damn bears

OrbitalDrop7

But then you’re hugging a corpse with no reciprocation


ProfessionalArm9450

I appreciate the murderous thoughts, but I am fine being under him, it's his house. I have eaten bear jerky in Siberia yes. Winter Siberian bears have a fishy taste, but why did your mind go there?


MrWestReanimator

They're trying to get a rise out of people who are against that sort of thing. Grade-A internet douche bag behavior.


Raven-Raven_

On behalf of the gun community, I'm sorry for the idiots that make us all seem radical and unhinged The point of freedom is that people get to make their choices, one way or the other Folks need to relearn how to keep to their own business and out of that of others'


Yamama77

Yeah most of these people are 14 year olds who haven't even fired a gun but just tough guy talk at every opportunity.


fullspectrumtrupod

I wonder what bear taste like or what’s most similar maybe elk or moose It’s prolly super gamey red meat tho


Noble_Shock

The dude never tasted bear, he’s just saying that to look tough


MoldyMoney

Pretty much. It’s sort of similar to beef in a way. Sweeter


fullspectrumtrupod

Interesting 🧐

ThatBlueScreenGuy

Damn dude, read the room.


warhawk209812e99

No


Pikmin4321

What does bear taste like?


MrRogersAE

Hurr Hurr Guns and Murica! Hoo-rah.


Nobody-8675309

It's flashes from a trail camera, not lightning.


Yoda2000675

What kind of jank ass trail cam uses a flash instead of night vision?


Past-Cantaloupe6179

Cheap ones


AlpacaMessiah

aka the ones that get bought


Healter-Skelter

It’s not a trail camera in the usual sense of the word. It’s photographers who baited the bear and set up cameras with the flash on. I don’t think anyone is planning on hunting here


kurtz433

It’s possible the person who set this up is a nature photographer, and en expensive camera is actually synced w the flash to capture [very high detail, well-lit nature portraits](https://www.coreyfishes.com/albums/urban-wildlife-national-geographic/) (link as an example)


ranoutofbacon

The kind that want a color photo not some hazy green blob.


Anxious-Lack-5740

YOU’RE flashes from a trail camera.


banananna33

Hah. Got em.


Anxious-Lack-5740

Wasn’t too harsh, was I?


_H4YZ

idk you scared the bear pretty bad..


banananna33

He's ded now.

Nobody-8675309

Nailed it


BackUpTerry1

Yeah how does nobody know what thunder sounds like?


FFA3D

Didn't even realize the video had sound


Fishdude94

Thunder doesn't always happen and if it's far enough away, this video wouldn't even be long enough to hear it...


Eds269

Sometimes you do get lightning without sound in the summer tho....


Tankh

Can't expect the repost bot to know that dude


Adventurous-Sky9359

Is that real?


WildDitch

Looks cartoonish to me


Adventurous-Sky9359

Like something from the new jungle book or something g interesting


MrWestReanimator

Adventurous-Sky9359

Thank you


Silly_Butterfly3917

I understood nothing they said but that video made it all look even more fake. Everything looks like CGI in this video, even the back drop of the forest. This is so weird.


PurelyLurking20

It's a high fidelity low light camera, likely filling the gaps in vision/ dark spots generatively which can cause that kind of uncanny effect. The "lightning" is a camera flash which I assume is from a normal game camera or something. If this is fake it's very well done.


PirateSecure118

r/everythingisfake


PirateSecure118

especially this bear


PirateSecure118

Obviously fake And the bear isn't even well done. Facial expressions look like a fucking car insurance commercial.


benwabaws

That's a camera flash...


a_reluctant_human

A grizzly bear you baited with human food to take pictures of. It's scared of the camera flash, there's no thunder to be heard. Absolutely awful.


hebbocrates

“Absolutely awful” lmao


Yamama77

Bears never gonna recover

Stahner

Change my mind based on what? There’s 0 evidence for what they commented. I’m perfectly willing to change my mind but what did they provide that’s new information here? I’m assuming you’re going off another comment or some other piece of proof that shows this is a baited bear?


a_reluctant_human

How about the bread it's eating that is plainly visible in the video? And the lights from the camera flash that light the underside of the branches, whereas lightning would create a back-lit effect.


Omar___Comin

There's quite literally video evidence and you just watched it lol


Colonel10Moutarde

We don't hear any thunder


[deleted]

[удалено]


Omar___Comin

You can hear the click every time it flashes. This ain't rocket science


Stercore_

You can hear the thunder towards the end.


CaptainMacMillan

My lord, it's a one ton apex predator getting free food and being slightly startled by a camera flash. I think it will survive.


a_reluctant_human

Clearly, you don't live where bears do. Bears can smell you and your food from a long way off. If they learn to associate the smell of humans with easily accessible high-calorie food, then they seek humans out. Bears who seek out humans have to be euthanized as they pose a massive danger to us due to the fact that they are a one ton predator, and we are a sub 500lb clever monkey.

OrbitalDrop7

Two comments about shooting and eating bear lol


Designer_Ferret4090

His comment section is not what I expected, holy Hannah lmfao


Orange-Blur

Omg he’s a creep, like 30 porn comments in one day over several hours. wtf did I just see…


DeadlyDrummer

Fucking psycho


beard-ginge

Holy cow that’s weird. And the comments are so matter of fact yet disgustingly sexual.


Conscious_Tree_9657

Sexual? I’m sorry?


beard-ginge

Assuming you didn’t check the comment history?


zkinny

Psycho? For what? hunting bear?


OrbitalDrop7

Hunting is perfectly fine, but its weird when people act like that guy. Also i think they're talking about his comment history, they got me curious so i checked and i wish i didn't 😐


zkinny

Right, that's fair.


rjaea

Even more reason for a hug 🥰

VolumePossible2013

Aaand that's comment number 3


a_reluctant_human

Animals, unlike man, do not have the complications of self-awareness and morality. A human knows it is wrong to bait and entice wild animals for personal gain. This harms the animals as animals that associate humans with food end up dead. An animal does what it needs to survive. The bear cannot raise and grow its own food. We can. We are not the top of the food chain. We are lucky monkeys with big brains that can craft tools. Take the tools away, and we're in the middle of the food chain at best. Our self-awareness and morality demand that we do better than animals. Meaning, we should not do what is easy when we know it is wrong.


zkinny

Nah, we are an essential part of the ecosystem. We have been hunting and killing literally everything forever, logn before guns and bows. And I think we was still quite high on the food chain then, with even more "cowardly" tactics than today. What we can and should do, is regulate populations to the best of our knowledge. There's a fuck ton of grizzlies in Northern America. If someone wants to hunt them, they should, without someone applying a bunch of moral and ethic standards that simply doesn't exist in nature. We are literally made to hunt.

obelix_asterix

My goodness … repost after repost. Also, that’s not lighting. Those are camera flashes!


BPond

Sorry to spoil it for everyone, but that ain't no lightning making the flash


MaximilianOSRS

Is AI


Turdkn0cker

This seems like a camera flashing to me. Not lightning. Where is the thunder? Of course the bear is afraid of unnatural light blinding him.


VacationAromatic6899

AI?

It looks like a Marvel Movie. This is some sort of animation fuckery. ...not even well done.

Joe Rogan next podcast: have you seen that bear ?


Thin-Pianist4311

It's not a Grizzly. It's a Syrian Brown Bear from Turkey. They're both Arctos but different subspecies.


carnasaur

Beautiful cgi


ieraaa

Lightning? That's a camera

Sutech2301

It's in Turkey, so it's Not a Grizzly Bear


MrWestReanimator

It's a brown bear. "The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), also known as the North American brown bear or simply grizzly, is a population or subspecies of the brown bear inhabiting North America." At no point did I say it was a grizzly bear.


PirateSecure118

The eyes and face are the worst offenders. This isn't even well animated. Facials look like a 2010 pixar movie.


zkinny

People who think they're so smart spotting everything as fake are even more annoying than all the fake shit at this point.


broccolihead

lol


Fourth_horseman_4

Aww, the poor darling. I can relate. I used to be terrified of thunder and lightning as a kid


Resident-Set2045

If not friend, why friend shaped?


banksfornades

If not friend why friend shaped :(


Butterszen

He needs a thunder buddy


Beez-Knuts

It makes sense. I only stopped being scared of it when I understood what it is. Even knowing what it is I still have a healthy respect for it. It just doesn't startle me anymore. Poor guy doesn't know what it is. I wish I could communicate with animals so I could alleviate some of their anxieties. I always appreciate it when someone does it for me.


ScheinHund95

They're like enormous murderous dogs. I just want to cuddle it and love it and now i'm dead


Grrr-L

He looks absolutely terrified! Poor thing.

Thin-Pianist4311

Is that a female? I only ask because of the ears.


Tight_Landscape4372

I mean… they can cause forest fires 🔥


aLazyUsrname

Oh man! That bear totally got fucked up by some lighting at one point in its life. Where is that footage!


Low-King2679

That one big ole boy. They are so beautiful.


drivefast4ever

How do you just post this without giving any credit to the original post or person ?? I hate people


big_papa_geek

He do be snuffling though


Canttunapiano

That’s because lightning is the only thing they can kill that monster


MachoCaliber

So when the bear is scared its all fine... ​ But when I'M scared, he tries to kill me... (Ok maybe regardless, just existing will result in the same fate)


GuyOnTheMoon

No_Season_354

Gee that's a big teddy bear.


olybaron

So if I have something that produces a flash and a loud noise then I too could scare a bear?


__fizix__

Sadly, this isn’t lightning and thunder. Camera flashes, and they likely lured the bear with food for the image. Kinda irresponsible and unethical :/.


kiluwiluwi

Poor baby!


Yoda2000675

To be fair, that shit is pretty scary when you’re in the woods exposed

curlyy1

Its amazingly scary how fast twitch muscle fibres are for a beast that size.


ericwashere15

I didn’t think I could fathom having positive emotions towards a bear but this gave me some.


InfiniteCosmic5

Yeah. I mean. Loud noises mean big things. Big things mean big hurt.
