A Romanian friend translates the moment when he starts skiing: "My dear friend, let's go for a race". This guy is very calm for having a bear chasing him. I bet he's skiing backwards too, since it would be very difficult to get this kind of footage facing the other way.
Unfair. The Bear didn´t have skis. But I am in bowing aaaaw to this man. That is a really good work done. Amazing. (from a friend in bearcountry) - you inspire and make me feel safer.
Awuh..it looked more like it wanted to play than to eat him..either way it sure was cute how it laid its head down in the snow staring at him. .maybe licking his chops figuring out what kind of side dishes to have with the main dish 😆
You are probably right. But the bear does not know humans are not bear, and if you look at videos on how they play together...well basically, same result as if the bear was looking for food. Humans end up chopped. And then that may trigger hunger..oh blood, I can eat with something I played with..yay.
Well the bear population exceeded the optiumum în Romania,we asked other European countries to take some of the bears but they didnt wanted to help and according to european laws we cannot shoot the bears either
Brown Bears are similar to wolf's and humans. They are endurance hunters. This brown bear could have followed for hours waiting for this guy to get tired. This bear seemed to be actively hunting people... I hope it was trapped and relocated.
Brown bears are an apex predator. Not taking this seriously is a mistake. The bear looks young and unsure if its approaching prey or threat. Bear's goal, pacing around in front to the right then back left, was to separate the pack and find the weak one. The instructor obliged, separating himself. Possibly the worse decision. With no group to defend him, he was one slip away from being lunch.
bears are only classified as apex predators because they are not preyed upon by other animals. But they're not predators that hunt and kill to survive. They do fish trout and salmon out of the rivers, but bears mainly eat plants. They are omnivores and opportunistic scavengers. of course, polar bears are carnivores and apex predators but are classified as marine mammals. But brown and black bears are pretty solitary animals. Unless it's starving, or has it's cubs, or it gets startled, a bear usually won't attack humans.
Idk about this assessment. That bear was little more than a cub, and looking for someone to play with. Doesn't mean it isn't dangerous, but it wasn't looking to eat them.
@@SIX6SIXer ok so Mike what do you think this bears intention was? Maybe I'm being native here but the way it laid its head down etc looked so cute, like it wanted to play? You think it getting so close before they started running, that if it really wanted to it could have gotten the guy?
@@emilyh.8704 i didn't say it wanted to play. i said they're not predators that hunt animals for food and aren't usually aggressive, a few circumstances aside.
@@SIX6SIXer ah ok..I was the one that assumed it wanted to play lol..and finally gave up and tired of following the guy? Either way it sure got close to him which to me is thinking if the bear wanted to charge it would have..im no expert, just my opinion..
I could feel the utter horror in his giggles. Lol. Must have been a poor translation on his part. (Referring to a news article I read) Great footage though.
Bears don't always hibernate throughout the entire winter and since this bear is fairly Young it probably didn't build up enough fat to have a full hibernation. I live in grizzly country and you see it often.
I think he was brave. He drew the bear away from the crowd on the top of the hill. Them slowed down to keep the bears attention as he closed in on some other skiers downhill. I would probably had barreled down to the bottom as fast as I can.
this guy is a dummy if they just seen another brown bear a month ago shouldn't they have a gun on the instructors just to be safe? like he could've let off a warning shot and it might ran away but that was definitely not smart to keep slowing down amd stopping while the bear was a full charge running down that mountain smh some people....
Romania, the country of wonders :)) The ski man was actually telling compliments to the bear about how beautiful he was
Amazing photography !
Probably one of the best amateur wildlife action videos , I have seen. 👏👏

helmet cam, hat cam, something like that
Imagine trying to film a bear thats chasing you while skiing, cant be easy... Epic footage!
And fu***** chatting with people and laughing. This guy is legend!

Plot twist: The bear just wants a hug
Wow, that was exciting video. The guy seems pretty cool considering how close that bear was getting.
Unofficially, that slope has a Double Bear Diamond difficulty level.
I don't know what's more impressive - that bear's stamina or that guy's balls.
Isn't that the truth, bravo dude!
He knew what he was doing, probably not his first encounter with bears. Nonetheless impressive courage
How was he able to ski so fast with the weight of his balls, impressive!
He kept them in front...this is why he had so much speed
When you can wear out a grizzly, you're a bonafide badass
Bear is thinking, "Damn, I wish I had some skiis!"
New Winter Olympic Event.
The Downhill Aggravated Bear Ski Run, All competitors that don't get mauled receive a gold medal.
Yes! And perhaps this is merely training so the bear isn't quite aggravated yet.
Why would anyone downvote this? hmmm unless... they are bears too

Chase response isn’t play per se.
With the "man" dish
That bear has been issolating all winter now he needs a good run and a meal.
🐻 🍽️ 🏂
Very brave skier to draw the bear away from the others. If he or she has chased people before, it's likely to repeat. Not somewhere I'd like to ski.
I'd definitely be carrying bear spray in that ski area.
Well the bear population exceeded the optiumum în Romania,we asked other European countries to take some of the bears but they didnt wanted to help and according to european laws we cannot shoot the bears either
It’s a baby 🐻 bear!! ❤️
Sure would hate to run out of downhill slope.
Pista de schi epica alerga din toate timpurile ! Farte bine !!!
1:35 cute but deadly
Bear was trying to get his lunch.
He's being pulled by someone on a snowmobile, right?
Coming out of hibernation very hungry af
If this guy coughs the planet will shake
That was brave of him for sure, but the title is beyond misleading. No teeth bearing!!! If you run from a brown bear, it will chase you. JS
Румыны всегда хорошо бегали.
Brasov, Romania.
I’m only wandering if nobody was hurt 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It happened in Poiana Brasov, not in Predeal, the two ski resorts being about 12 miles apart.
Can´t wait for the Ozzyman version of this encounter
Don't fall!! 😳

Much more likely it was curious, seems like a young bear
Use Perkele!
Works every time!

Great footage though.
not at all, there is no horror in this guy's voice, on the opposite. he is calm and making fun of the bear.
@@ananita6888 I used sarcasm. Notice the word choice of mine. Giggles.
No hard feeling on the misunderstanding though 😎
WHY WASN'T THIS BEAR IN HIBERNATION ?
Bears don't always hibernate throughout the entire winter and since this bear is fairly Young it probably didn't build up enough fat to have a full hibernation.
I live in grizzly country and you see it often.
Meanwhile here in America we have the 'Queer all Year' calendar at Target and people that don't know what gender they are 😅
Kudos to you brave sir!
Brave or stupid? I don't know but the bears are eating sometimes poeple. So stop joking and
playing with bear. -.-
Oh shut up
I think he was brave. He drew the bear away from the crowd on the top of the hill. Them slowed down to keep the bears attention as he closed in on some other skiers downhill. I would probably had barreled down to the bottom as fast as I can.
He was the ski instructor and was leading the bear way from his group and then other skiers down the slope
@@tchupirulab at 6:52 it looks like they didn't get the message and decided to follow him?
@@stana.281 What were they supposed to do, though? Camp on the mountain?
1st

Or maybe he was doing it deliberately to draw the bear away from the other people. He is an instructor, after all.
All ppl are not dum hillbillies with guns on them. Some are normal...
In Romania is illegal to carry a gun. It would be crazy to allow this
I would have been in a racing tuck and wouldn't stop til I got to the bottom. Hopefully not fall...
