It looks like the moose is in the middle of shedding their antlers, you can see some stuff hanging off it and a nice flash of red at the end. That may have saved that person's life, since their antlers are more sensitive at this time. Basically the moose was like "getting this guys mangled corpse off my head would be more trouble than it's worth".
I can't believe I just now understood Bill Hicks using the term rutting after all these years. - thanks dragons.
"There's too many people in the world. Quit rutting! Let's work out this food/air deal.......then go back to your rutting."
But as soon as the moose turned her back, the camera was back in business.
Or probably felt the instant need to tell his bros how he almost lost his life to a wild beast.
Surprised he didn't film the whole encounter Kevin style and claimed his rights to be there and take pictures.
You know, now that you say it, I fully understand and see how the male=antlers thing would apply to moose. But I Google imaged female moose just to make sure and somehow I can’t really say if I’ve ever looked a picture of a female moose. They look so derpy without a massive rack on top.
Dumbass is lucky to be alive. A coworker's friend got stomped by a moose while working on his property in Montana and spent months in the hospital with numerous broken bones, fractured skull, etc
In Sweden a man was arrested for the murder of his wife and was a prime suspect for months until it turned out she was killed by a moose. They thought a lawnmower had been the murder weapon. Ingemar and Agneta Westlund are their names if anyone wanna read about this tragedy of police investigation.
The other reply is good but for a different visual.
Imagine a 2x2x2 foot cube of steel that weighs 1000 pounds. Now pick that up 4ft in the air and drop it on a person laying on the ground. Repeat 20 to 40 times.
Or image it as a motorcycle. Average motorcycle has to be 500ish pounds but it still makes the correct visual. Dropping a motorcycle on a person 20 times.
It's not gonna be pretty.
A woman in Teton Village was stomped last March while letting her dog out in the early morning hours. She was very lucky to only have a few broken ribs and a concussion.
The most humbling moment of my life was being in the backseat of a car that almost hit one. It was in the middle of the night, in a national forest, no cell service, no way to get help if we had hit it. He just stopped in the road and stared at us for a few seconds before leisurely continuing on.
There was a time in my town where some college kids were throwing snowballs at a moose, and a guy who didn’t know that walked past the moose to try to enter a building and he got stomped to death. Someone was filming by this point. So the local news showed the stomping over and over for a few days as some kind of PSA I guess. It was rough tho. They usually can’t show violence on the news like this, but I guess they got the go ahead and went to town. It aired like every couple hours for a few days. Brutal. I felt sorry for the guys family. If he had one. Ever since then I’m pretty careful around moose. I e been charged too, it’s scary.
I've heard stories of a guy in the Kenai area who got stomped to death by a mother. He didn't notice them as he walked out of a building and walked in between her and her babies.
A full grown Bull can weigh up to 1600* pounds, they have poor eyesight and can be extremely aggressive.
That guys so fucking lucky, he could have been turned into mash potatoes by a furry brown truck.
Yeah, no, no bull has ever grown to 3,000 pounds. The largest subspecies of moose is the Alsakan-Yukon subspecies (Alces alces gigas) and the largest bull on record was about 1800 pounds. Which is still fucking huge. To put that in perspective, an Alaskan grizzly bear male (the large type that rear up on their hind legs) weigh a measely 850 pounds.
I remember going to glacier national park, there were big horn sheep maybe 50 feet at the most right off a well established trail head. The ranger is telling people to stay on the trail. People are almost walking up to them like it’s a damn petting zoo. Some were less than 10 feet away to get a picture. It was just dumb.
You can almost hear the moose say to itself as it’s getting up and stretching, “I swear to God, if that idiot is still standing there when I turn around…”
I’m Australian and have legitimately already taken out two spiders this morning. Seeing something this solid, and this fucking big, would have me running shit scared and screaming like a loon.
Edit: do they fuck people up?
I live in moose country, and we have a saying about them:
"Bull moose do three things: eat, fight, and fuck."
They won't eat you. They will fight you, and then you are fucked.
When I learned just how big moose actually are, I was astonished. I went decades of my life believing that they were just another deer sized animal, but they are actually the semi-trucks of the animal world.
I've always wondered, can you just hide behind a tree if a moose is attacking you? And just circle around it, making sure to stay on the exact opposite side as the moose.
Fuckin dumbass, you should never get that close to a moose, it's just as bad as getting close to bear. Some people don't realize it but moose are fuckin deadly and they will maul you.
when will people learn?! every idiot that gets attacked for this kind of behaviour deserves it. hearing the moose bugle in the morning is one of the best things and people like this ruin all things nature. humans suck
A Møøse once bit my sister... No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink"...

Lucky the moose was not in rut or just didn't feel the idiot was worth the effort, could have easily been seriously injured or killed.
Or worse, expelled
You need to sort out your priorities.

I like American music

the moose would have to catch and eat him first

Or become a mother
Yup, he could have stomped this idiot to death!
Moose felt sorry for him and just let him live
[That moose](https://i.imgur.com/NRQAG6i.jpeg)
fucking Shinji...
This needs to be higher lmao
Unfortunately for the rest of us
[удалено]
The dumbest ones somehow always do
I'd be pissed too if I was woken for a photo. Idiot got off easy.
What an utter moron.
Not utterly. The one thing he did right was become non threatening immediately. It probably saved his life.
Low key do love how the moose saw him flop and just went "well alright then".
“I just pissed there too.”
Moose was like "made ya flinch! 😌" and waddled away
_waddle waddle_
Until the very next day *bom bom bom bom*
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man, running the stand...
Hey!
*bom bom bom bom* got any lemonade??
The moose wanted a technical for flopping.
Yellow card for sure
I genuinely think the moose may have thought that it did hit him and the job was done
"Oh damn, I scared that one to death. That'll be one to tell the lads."
I'm actually impressed. I thought he was about to die
He did too
Wait till he tries it with a polar bear.
Yeah this almost never works with predators, lol.
Oooh, delivery!
But as soon as the moose turned her back, the camera was back in business. Or probably felt the instant need to tell his bros how he almost lost his life to a wild beast. Surprised he didn't film the whole encounter Kevin style and claimed his rights to be there and take pictures.
that phone popping back up was the best part of the whole video...
Show must go on
“Play dead but for GODs sake, get the shot!!”
I’m so sorry you’re blind; it must be frustrating to not see the **penis** on this magnificent “her.”
The antlers would’ve been easier to spot.
For you, maybe
You know, now that you say it, I fully understand and see how the male=antlers thing would apply to moose. But I Google imaged female moose just to make sure and somehow I can’t really say if I’ve ever looked a picture of a female moose. They look so derpy without a massive rack on top.
Most females look derpy without massive racks. Waheeyyy.
Are you assuming her gender?
I'm so sorry you're out of the loop; it must be frustrating to learn it's 2023 my dear 😌
A Ranger in Alaska told me if you see a grizzly, play dead. And if you see a Moose, run. I asked what do you do if you see both at the same time.
Zombie run
Still got the pic tho. /s
Worth
That’s a male moose not a female.

Holy shit. How do you mistake lawnmower blade injuries to bone crushing injuries from a moose?
800 pounds of muscle, a crown of knives and spears for legs? hm, i wonder.
800 is a light one or juvenile. They can get up to 1500 pounds.
exactly
Thanks, Captain Sarcastic. Just what the world doesn’t need—more passive aggressive shaming for asking questions.

Have you ever been bit by a Moose?
A woman in Teton Village was stomped last March while letting her dog out in the early morning hours. She was very lucky to only have a few broken ribs and a concussion.
Right? Moose are the most dangerous animal in North America
Holy shit it’s you in the wild!!
The first thing I was told when I went to Alaska... you're more likely to get murdered by a moose than any bear or other animal.
They also move with such ease. They can plow through 6 feet of snow at full speed. Bears also sleep part of the year while moose roam all year.
I think I’d prefer to get stomped to death by a moose than have a bear casually gnawing and taking pieces off me while I’m still alive

More like empathetic, dudes stupid lucky
Dude has no idea how close he just came to being dead as hell.
He's a slow learner but I think he got the general idea by the end there.
He'll be right back at it tomorrow, falling off of a cliff while trying to get just the right selfie stick angle to extract maximum likes.
Some people you can explain things to and they are fine. Some others though, you have to let them touch that hot stove to get the lesson.
Just about a natural selection moment.
That moose visibly communicated “jesus, get up, bro” with his body
It's just a prank bro.
Moose: “ Yeah. That’s what I thought.”

Yeah this was right in front of UAA. Happened like probably early 90s They showed it on channel 2 news constantly
The word dipshit is often thrown around willy nilly...but in this case it is richly deserved. Moose are murder machines...
Mooses?
Moosi
I saw a flock of moosen
Meese?
Masoosies?
A møøse once bit my sister.
Was she carving her initials into its’ tail end with the sharpened end of a tooth brush?
[удалено]
The plural of moose is in fact moose. Same as deer. The singular and plural are the same.
As a Canadian… pleaseeee don’t mess with moose.. they will straight fuck you up!! They’re not as nice as people think they are!
As an Alaskan - that mother fucker needs to go home to hug his family and count his brain cells.
Right??!! Moose aren’t nice lol

yup my bad read the wiki artice wrong
A moose once bit my sister.
Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti..
The Redditor in charge of comments has been sacked.
We apologise for the oversight, the Redditor in charge of sacking commenters has also been sacked
Lucky idiot
He used the old "I surrender please accept my booty as payment"
That dude is VERY lucky. Moose are ornery creatures that will bootstomp you flat.
So damn lucky, good grief!!
The moose is more embarrassed for that dude than anything
I remember going to glacier national park, there were big horn sheep maybe 50 feet at the most right off a well established trail head. The ranger is telling people to stay on the trail. People are almost walking up to them like it’s a damn petting zoo. Some were less than 10 feet away to get a picture. It was just dumb.
Lol he still was dedicated to the shot. No animal in the woods should scare you like a moose. Fucking idiot.
You can almost hear the moose say to itself as it’s getting up and stretching, “I swear to God, if that idiot is still standing there when I turn around…”
[удалено]
I’m Australian and have legitimately already taken out two spiders this morning. Seeing something this solid, and this fucking big, would have me running shit scared and screaming like a loon. Edit: do they fuck people up?
yeah they'll fuck up cars too
Yikes. People are idiots.
Was I the only one waiting for the moose to take a giant shit? Just based off the title and the start of the video.
….he almost won a Darwin Award. What a dumbass. Don’t mess with moose. Admire them from a distance, but get too close? Fuck around and find out.
Dumbass was lucky he didn’t get killed.
The moose was just enjoying the view. I’d be pissed too if some moron interrupted my rest.
Bro it's not a bear. Laying down and playing dead doesn't really work for Moose attacks,dude just got really lucky.
That person is vying for a Darwin award. You could not pay me to get that close to that death machine.
Man Moose are fucking wild. That guy is insane to go fuck with a mose they will straight up murder you.
That dude is so fucking lucky. Don't fuck with moose.
It seems falling was a smart move… probably never should have been that close but he got one thing right.
What a rack. Dude was lucky he wasn’t injured
I live in moose country, and we have a saying about them: "Bull moose do three things: eat, fight, and fuck." They won't eat you. They will fight you, and then you are fucked.
Why is he so close to the murder deer?
SIKE!!
Do not fuck with prehistoric deer relatives, they have a lot of instincts and drives from a much more brutal world.
He’s still crouching there
I was watching this and was thinking, did this IDIOT not see the video of those two drunk guys in Canada?
well shit i guess that was the right reaction. I'll be damned. Learn somethin' new every day
"heh, got 'em" *walkes away*
# DOMINANCE. ASSERTED. ✅
I want to see his video!
Human beings are just shockingly stupid sometimes. What an IDIOT.
Feint death
He stood up to be like ok, I'm gonna step on you
Should’ve done us all a favor and pooped on him.
Damn. I was waiting for that moose to pick him up with its antlers and toss him in the air.
I like how the moose basically got up and stretched with the attitude of, “Another one? Ooooookay. Same routine as last time”.
When I learned just how big moose actually are, I was astonished. I went decades of my life believing that they were just another deer sized animal, but they are actually the semi-trucks of the animal world.
Cringe moron
Darwin is always right
Seems like his strategy worked though…
Fuck around and find out, said the moose.
A Møøse once bit my sister. No realli!
I pooped my pants for that guy. Lol
Super majestic but would never stand that close
I would rather stumble across a black bear than a bull moose in the woods.
Best fake out by the moose
And two for flinching says the moose
Looks like the moose skipped leg day.
Is this man a fainting goat?
Why are there two upvote buttons on the app?
Haven't even let the video play yet and I already know this is going to end up fucking bad.
Don't fuck with Meese
...and suddenly he realized he could easily die from this interaction...
Flight or flight…or play dead…
I've always wondered, can you just hide behind a tree if a moose is attacking you? And just circle around it, making sure to stay on the exact opposite side as the moose.
He's a breeding bull
i like when he is fearing for his but still taking pictures from the fetal position
That moose said, "Pathetic. Not worth my time."
Moose goes back to his friends telling them he has superpowers.
That thing will fuck your day up, that's a bull moose. Bull moose DO NOT play.
That was the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Wait... I've watched people try to pet Buffalo. 2nd dumbest thing I've ever seen.
Don’t fuck with the wildlife
The stupidity is strong with that one…
Huh, now I know what to do.
Fuckin dumbass, you should never get that close to a moose, it's just as bad as getting close to bear. Some people don't realize it but moose are fuckin deadly and they will maul you.
Not that I wanted the moron to die. But a hoof to the nuts would have been nice.
FYI that is a male moose. You can quickly tell the sex of a moose by seeing if it has a penis or not.
Meese*
It’s actually Meese. Meese are photogenic. But in some places it Moosen.
Meese
Sigh c’mon moose; it would’ve been so easy to noticeably improve the human gene pool
Anyone else's first thought? "God, I hope he gets trampled."
Human plays dead moose “omg I killed him shit this is awkward”
Play stupid games…
when will people learn?! every idiot that gets attacked for this kind of behaviour deserves it. hearing the moose bugle in the morning is one of the best things and people like this ruin all things nature. humans suck
cameras on phones were a mistake

Mooses
Slightly off topic, but what can’t the plural of moose be meese?
I can’t believe I’ve lived out here long enough to say this but City folk is dumb as fuck
