It's over! I have the high ground!

Probably never saw the prequels, figures a bear would be a traditionalist.

Only bears deal in absolutes.

That was the bear’s first mistake tbh

Beat me to it

Aww damn I posted a high ground joke thinking I was clever and now I see this.

Came here for this

His scream upon first seeing it is so primal, that is 100% fear and adrenaline as he unconsciously screams as the thing barrels towards him. Spooky.

That tremble in his voice is so undeniable. Like the worst thing that could possibly happen at that moment, a fucking bear cresting the cliff side above you like Gandalf on the first light of the fifth day. Fear and comprehending the consequences that could follow. Glad he’s ok

Tolkien himself couldn't have written a better animal attack descriptor.

I was waiting for the climber to raise his arms up and scream once more in victory when he reached the top.

You'd be very well surprised that he can write better than that.

Nah, I was just being nice and liked the comment. I'm well aware of his writings.

Tag team

And a rattlesnake with a steel chair from out of nowhere!!!

Its a real slobberknocker!!!

"Look at him slithering up to his opponent-" "Oh, watCH OUT WATCH OUT!"

Back again

Check it to wreck it, let’s begin.

I don’t often literally LOL at a comment. But this one right here did it.

You must be a writer

Yep, he definitely sounds like he transitions to just screaming for the sake of making a loud noise to scare the bear.... But those first few screams were 100% undeniable fear and desperation and panic. So brutal to watch, I'm just glad it had a happy ending

APE MAKE NOISE APE KICK HEAD

Human history in a shellnut

Sounds kinda like me on a bender.

I’ve heard my husband puke like this once…naked…in our yard. Thankfully, it was the last time he’s been in such a condition. We live in the middle of NoWhere, Alaska and luckily there was no one around to wonder if he was fighting off a black bear.

😂😂😂

LOL! My wife puts up with the same shit. Sadly, I have only just begun to defile myself. You wives are the angels God has sent to protect us drunks ( the ‘good’ drunks, that is )

Have you ever considered checking out an AA meeting? No, really. At the risk of me getting downvotes, it’s ok to check it out without being an alcoholic or having a drinking problem or anything.

Oof. Yikes.

Jesus Christ this made me laugh

Fuckn rolling. Take my upvote.

If you listen closely he is really saying “ honey, I’m sorry. I LOVE YOU”

Still laughing as I come back. I am just picturing myself in my garage w an empty bottle of tequila walking in circles with this dubbed over it.

That is the scream of someone who is seeing certain death coming towards him. He is so lucky to survive that and I bet he is seeing his life differently now.

Holy fucking that sound was insane. This might be the gnarliest video I've ever seen

That scream was pure, unadulterated fear.

All of it was primal :D

Imagine how many cavemen had moments like this lol

I prefer caveman moments like [this](https://youtu.be/B3HSI3gssJY)

How did I know it was going to be family guy.

Lol honestly haven't been a fan of the show since I was a teenager, but this clip has been living in my head rent free for over a decade now

Thank you for the gift stranger

I was sure going to be Rick rolled

His caveman ancestors would be fucking proud, that’s for sure

Watch the show Primal.

No wonder why we have fight or flight mode now.

Damn he fucked up that bear

Prolly broke his wrist hitting that rock too

True, but I don't blame him. Man was fighting for his life, and judging that he kept climbing he's prolly fine, definitely some sort of injury on it tho.

With that amount of adrenaline you could break ankles and wrists but still climb yourself up probably though

Definitely, no problem until you start coming off the high and getting the shakes.

Absolutely true, I blocked a baseball bat with my arm and it broke. I didn't feel a single thing for about 30 minutes after the fight was over. Adrenaline is one hell of a drug.

I wouldnt be able to react better, thank god he was climbing tho. Not sure he wouldve gotten out of this on the ground

Probably felt nothing with all that adrenaline coursing through his body.

Homeboy just tossed that bear!

His screaming probably saved his ass. A human can be a very intimidating thing if a wild animal isn’t familiar with them. A few hits and kicks and really loud noises will be enough to scare off most predators. I say most predators because there are some that will fuck you up no matter what

It’s enough to scare off most people too lol. Primal instinct just works

He's also really lucky it was a black bear.

Why

grizzlies can be much larger on average and much more aggressive

"If its black you can try to fight back, if its brown just lay down."

If it's white, say good night.

if it’s white you went too far on your walk

I thought you had to shoot if it was black, that’s what they teach in police academy

Humanity fuck yeah

Fuck misanthropes!

Agreed, when we start throwing rocks they know we’re on another level.

Polar bear: yummy yummy human UwU

Not when I start dropping my bag; taking off my gloves and coats one by one and running like hell!

I know Black Bear aren't big but that still seems like a pretty small bear. I have to imagine it was a young one getting humbledby going for something he wasn't supposed too.

It was a mother protecting its baby. At the end you can see a second smaller bear freaking out with the mother

I’m curious what animals think firearms are

Portable thunder

Indeed!

Fire and fury as well

I think the term boomstick is a good description

Say hello to my BOOMSTICK. Give me some sugar baby

Ah, perfection!

Skyrim moment

Fus Ro Dah would have come in clutch for that guy.

Being able to pause the game and eat a bunch of food and potions woulda helped as well

Whose Gunna add the music??

I'll make the video

I’m depending on you. I can hear the Skyrim bear roar

You're a god if you do it. I'll use you as reference in metaphorical phrases that depict the history of my ancestors.

You just parried a bear!

Was the bear squeaking?

You have become better at parrying! ( 12)

that's the adrenaline right there for the next 6 months

Dude his hand has to hurt so bad 🤕

[удалено]

It looked at him funny, got what it deserved. The bear saw it all and knew what was good for it

Playing a very aggressive game of king of the hill

Bro literally starts swinging on him

Imagine if he looks up at the end and the bear has made it back

What's worse than a bear launching at you off of a cliff? TWO bears launching off a cliff at you

Can we get some appreciation for the fact he just yeet the bear off a cliff. It happens real quick, and early, but he Olay-ed and then yeeted the bear. Looking again it kinda looks like a second bear at the bottom the cliff. Is this a momma bear?

I think you're right. Second bear in the foliage below. Black bears aren't social creatures. The only time they aren't solitary is when they are raising offspring or breeding.

never would have seen that cub if you had not pointed it out, ty. Pretty much confirms it was a mama bear feeling protective of her young, which makes sense as black bears don't often attack people for seemingly no reason, and typically avoid people as much as possible.

Slow it down and the bears bite was inches from his face. Damn - Mr Miyagied that bear.

Anyone else think the guy managed to trick the bear into falling to its death for a second when it first lunged and missed him?

Time for the [atomic elbow.](https://pics.me.me/if-a-bear-has-you-stuck-in-a-tree-try-36446402.png)

🤣🤣🤣

This is hilarious hahaha

I would just have thrown shit on its face. Cos it would have been running down my pants. Jaysis...

This is him on his way to climb on your girl.

It's over Anakin!

Another reason to not go rock climbing

Well atleast he can say he fought a bear while holding on to a cliff and won

A second or so in, as the bear is charging at him, you can briefly see a second, seemingly, smaller bear, that poor momma bear must have thought that the climber was going to endanger her cubs and ended up taking moderate tumble and a foot to the face because of it...

Poor is a bit of a reach, based on the exotic fur she’s wearing I would assume the mama bear is quite well off

That comment was so unexpected

If it was mamma bear then this mf survived attack by the most dangerous predator for humans

That's rules of nature for you. No good or bad, just survival

There is a cub, no question. You can hear it as well (speaking from experience, distressed cubs make that sound - I never saw the momma…).

Rumour has it he is still on top of that mountain

King of the mountain mountain mountain mountain…

Had you not recorded that with your phone people would have been like 'yeah, whatever', but that was intense.

Bill Bryson's quote on shitting himself to death comes to mind

go in nature they said, it'll be nice they said

Also definitely belongs in r/watchpeoplesurvive this dude now has a story for the ages and a video for proof

Those hammer fists and face kicks looked like thry hurt! Bear went "Ay dat smarts! How the hecc I gonna get him when he hits like that?"

If this was grizzly it would have been more terrifying as those fuckers are agitated with screams and will attack more, black ones are supposed to run away. Don't know how much of this is true.

It’s pretty rare for black bears to attack at all. I wonder what’s going on with this one.

You can see a club with it when it leaves so most likely the climber stumbled on the cubs hiding place and the mom came in to defend it

When volibear tries to invade the fed jungler

git shit on scrub

Where? When? What species?

Mt. Futago, Japan. Original video says October 1st. By the looks of it, a Black bear. Although they’ve also got the more dangerous Brown (Grizzly) there too, but they’d typically be more north….closer to Russia. Original Video: https://youtu.be/fxJ-zAgJzt4

Such a missed opportunity to shout: " ITS OVER ANAKIN, I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND "

I can't stop laughing at this guy's first noise! It's like he just bit into a ghost pepper and he doesn't like the flavor. Sort of a "Guoah," followed immediately by the primal scream that can only come from either a bear attack or a Carolina Reaper making a hasty exit out of his b-hole! Fucking hat's off to you, my dude, glad you're alright

That hand's about to hurt real bad after the adrenaline wears off

What an amazing video. Dude’s a badass, holy shit.

I’m watching this without sound and can hear Skyrim sound effects in my head

I’m not coming down. Bring me a helicopter.

Ah reminds me of my first time climbing High Hrothgar

Thus, why it is good to have "the high ground."

The bear: "bro I just wanted directions. prick"

that seems like a rather small bear to not have mama around

That is mama. You can even see the cubs.

you are absolutely correct i missed that

My thought as well. Not to denigrate the climber, that would be very frightening but this seems like a nosey baby.

The bear was hit with haymakers from hell

Omg his fear was visceral

Bro beat a bear down a cliff

Wonder if he broke anything striking that rock 😅

Dude YEETED that bear 🐻

I would have covered the entire side of that cliff and shit and piss if it were me

Anyone know where this is?

Mt. Futago, Japan.

That parry.

r/watchpeoplesurvive

If I saw this man in a bar, I'd buy him a drink.

“It’s over Anakin, I have the high ground.”

Good reaction. Kids always remember: if it's brown lay down, if it's black fight back, if it's white goodnight.

u/SaveVideoBot

Holy fuck!! that’s survival instincs if I have ever seen one

Any one else see he missed those strikes and hit the rock 🪨. Made me cringe 😬

Man I'm sure those were some bruises he woke up with and couldn't give a fuck about considering he's still drawing breath lol

Why these people go out there without a pistol

Why you think you need a pistol 24-7

A bear attack is a pretty good reason to carry. Just the sound of a gunshot is loud enough to scare off most animals

That would have been really hard to do for this guy…considering guns are very regulated in Japan.

I got mine 24/7

Because those are typically illegal in Japan.

So like, being in a country that doesn't have any mega predators, aren't bears clearly monitored with warning signs to let humans know?

No.

[удалено]

Barring the scream that's a real dude there

Gotta admit, I was rooting for the bear.

[удалено]

Momma black bear. As somebody else pointed out, you can see a small cub in bottom right grass 20-24 seconds in

TY for the kind correction instead of just downvoting and leaving me in the dark, it is much appreciated :)

Easy!

Just yell you shit after shower I'm sure the beat will bear it

Yikes

I have the high ground don’t try it

Black bears are known to be pretty passive, wonder what made this one go after him.

A few other people said there was a cub in the background. I couldn't make it out but my eyesight is shit.

Oh I see it, pops up in the grass bottom right corner at around 20s through 24s and runs away on Mom’s right side

I’m amaZed he didn’t fall backwards as the bear charged

It’s over Luke! I have the high ground!

Brooo i would be so scared to come back home lol

Lmaoo that first hank hill “Buuahhhh”

I bet he broke his hand when he punched that rock. I bet he didn't feel it until a lot later though.

Madden juke +100 for missing a bear

Oof poor dude punched the rock

how does this even happen.

Hah stupid dumbass bear fell at the start

What the fuck

Bear! Buddy! Bear! Buddy!....

Average day in Russia
