    He's not an idiot, he's a hero. If you take the time to read the description in English, This ski instructor was provoking the bear to chase him so that it would not come after the children in his class. He keeps yelling and provoking the bear to chase him and drawing the bear downhill away from the kids in his class and the unsuspecting other skiers. He's a hero. Look into things before you start calling people idiots. It's sad how people just love to get on the internet and act like a mob and attack people before knowing any context of what they are seeing. Put your pitchforks away folks! Would it have been smarter for him to just ski off to safety and let all those children on the slope fend for themselves against a large grizzly? No, he was doing the right thing by keeping the bear's attention on him. Most adult ski instructors can ski in control up to 45-55 mph if they have to and a grizzly can only run 30-35 tops so this ski instructor is pretty safe and can easily take off at full speed downhill in a tuck if the bear was ever too close to him. As you can see, the bear finally gave up and got the scent of something else and went off into the woods. I would hope that ski patrol eventually closes down this trail until the bear leaves the area. Give the ski instructor a hand for keeping his class safe from a freaking grizzly bear and stop calling him an idiot. And yes, I'm aware that this is in Romania and Romania most definitely does have grizzly bears, same as Russia, Canada and the US.

      tbh the bear didnt look aggressive at all, if anything interested in playing, which obviously is not a great idea. Of course you can never be sure with a bear, but grizzlys hardly ever attack people. The few cases where encounters end deadly are usually either because the bear got surprised, which is not the case here, or the bear was a very old male who had lost any fear from humans and ideally was very hungry as well, but this one looks quiet energetic and decently well fed. Of course still important to keep weaker individuals away from the bear, because these beasts even if they mean no harm at all can be pretty dangerous.

    For those who don't understand romanian. I know that slope. I'm always eyes open for bears. From the video, we learn he is a ski instructor. And he was on his way down to his school kids. He first tried to talk the bear away from the slope. Because he had tourists (skiiers) behind. Then, the bear, out of the blue sky tried to chase him. For no reason, that's why you can never know what a bear does. So this man played the bear's game to exhauste it. When he saw that there are other tourists downhill. He stopped. Warn them to go fast downhill because there is a bear. Finally, he succeeded to make the animal go in to the forest. He laughs all the time because he is maybe from that region, and he is used with these animals. So, he is a kind of hero.

      Thanks for those explanations and appreciations, I'm not from the area, but I often go to different parts depending on where I have hours. We were all lucky that that bear was not aggressive, but it is still a wild bear, and you never know how it will react. The idea was not to be fed by someone, as I think has happened in the past, and to return to the forest from where it came. It took some time, with a continuous change of strategy depending on how the situation evolved, but I succeeded in the end. Only good, and no similar meetings with anyone!

    So as a romanian, I can give a few translations to the people watching the video:
    1. The guy was not mocking or provoking the bear, he was a ski instructor attending a class and he kept telling him to go to the forest and was trying to keep the people in the group from panicking. He kept calling the bear cute :)
    2. The reason he made the bear chase him was to keep him away from the other people, in interviews he said this has happened before (in other words he wanted to provoke the chase instinct of the bear on purpose, so it goes after him instead of a child or something)
    3. He was warning people as he was going down the slope that theres a bear in order for them to leave

    This is incredible, absolutely amazing.
    The instructor is a calm hero, gets the bear away from all the other skier's at the top of the slope, and stops when he encounters people on his way down, to give them time to ski all the way down and put some distance between themselves and the bear.
    All this while filming perfectly, and laughing and being calm throughout the entire interaction.
    My dad studied to in Romania late 1970s/early 1980s, and he says he saw a bear while skiing there too. Beautiful country he says. From the video here, I have to agree.

      Yes, the bear was a juvenile. I have encountered a juvenile grizzly while doing trail maintenance…the bear ran back a few metres and stopped…I stood my ground and then backed away very slowly.
      There are numerous bear encounters in the Rocky Mountains…very few attacks…and even fewer fatalities. When researching fatalities in Montana, it was reported that many were during hunting season. Hunters leave gut piles from a deer or moose kill…the bears easily find the meal and defend the nearby territory. One striking incidence, a party of three hunters were killed at their camp…three rifles were founded nearby loaded and not discharged. Faster than greased lightning!!!
      Bear attacks and fatalities are often just bad luck…chance encounters. Sometimes it is about not being informed…tents ripped apart because food was stored in or near a tent. Again in Montana …two solo female backcountry backpackers were killed in their tents on the same day…miles apart…not by the same bear.
      On one occasion, I watched a father, with a daughter in the front of a canoe, paddle up to within 10 metres of a mature adult grizzly on the shoreline. #*£¥ ing stupid! These bears leave paw prints the size of dinner plates …and rip huge divots out of the soil with one swipe when dining on rodents.
      I won’t judge this skier, but even a friendly dog in an off leash area will chase joggers. If you want to take on the persona of being ‘prey’, and initiate the predatory instincts of a predator…then run.

He managed to stop the rest of the skiing ppl and by himself took the bear further down. His voice seemed calm all the way and I'm impressed. Salute to such a gentle, calm man!

      @Sherlock245 3 года назад +6

      That bear was not just curious.
      When the bear was laying down in the snow, next to the edge of the slope, it was actually behaving just like a bear on a hunt would do. I.e. the bear tried to fool the prey by looking uninterested, but at the same time slowly advancing tactically, closer and closer.
      So, the ski instructor would have been the next meal for the bear, had he stayed put instead of skiing down the slope.
      I have seen this behavior with polar bears several times before, exactly the same tactic (to play uninterested but slowly advance until within reach or the prey).
      I mean, the bear must have been really hungry. It wouldn't have run for so long otherwise. Bears are no maraton runners you know. Nor are they downhill skiers.

    ENGLISH translation.
    We have in this video a Romanian ski instructor (not Russian, as many people keep dreaming...)
    Looks like a lot of people missunderstood what happened in this video, and they think the instructor provoked the bear.
    I invite them to read this translation.
    The ski instructor's name is Adrian Stoica, this is his channel.
    During the whole video, he's been skiing backwards (hat off...) so this way he recorded the entire chase.
    0:01 The instructor to the bear: "Hey you, grandpa' bear, get away from here... we've got work to do."
    0:07 To the people: "Stop! Stop! Stop! Stay were you are, just a little bit. Let him pass by."
    0:14 To the bear: "Hey brother! Come on, come on, come on..."
    0:16 A woman in the background: "And now...? What we're gonna do?"
    0:19 The instructor to the woman: "We'll let him pass by. You don't put yourself in his way."
    0:28 A man in the background: "Stop! Stop! Stop!"
    0:30 The instructor to the bear: "Come on, beat it to the valley, slowly."
    0:35 The instructor to the people: "And after that, the group. Everyone stopped, right?"
    0:39 A man: "Right."
    0:42 The instructor to the group: "Come on... let's make some noise, so he will go. Make a little bit of noise."
    0:53 To the bear: Hey partner... beat it. We are too many here, and you are alone.
    Come on, come on, come on... huo! Huo! Huo!"
    1:04 To the people: "Look... what a cute face he has! He doesn't care..."
    1:10 To the bear: "My friend, come on... don't come closer cause we are not such good friends.
    Come on... come on...
    Go to the woods, to the woods...
    To the woods, to the woods, to the woods... forget about us, leave us.
    Come on, come on..."
    1:38 "Oh... bravo! Very nice of you!" (He loughs).
    1:45 "Are you kidding me...?
    You're not allowed here. You're not allowed here."
    1:57 "I know you're cute, but... everyone with his own business."
    2:11 "Huoi!
    You're not allowed here. You're not allowed here.
    Don't you understand you're not allowed...?
    Go to your woods.... I know you want something, but I don't have anything to give you."
    2:24 A man in the background: "Doesn't anybody have food on...?"
    2:29 The instructor to the bear: "You are adorable."
    2:34 To the people: "So what now...? What are we going to do with him here?"
    2:35 A man to the instructor: "Leave the skies there, and come here."
    2:37 The instructor: "No. Because I have to go down slope to the students."
    2:41 To the bear: "You're not allowed here! Not allowed! Not allowed!"
    2:50 "That's it."
    2:51 To the bear: "Bye, little bear!
    Come after me... huol!"
    3:01 "Let's make a contest... come after me!"
    (He starts the race.)
    3:06 He turns 180 degrees and continues to ski backwards during the whole race, while filming the bear and talking to him:
    "Come on, dear, come on..."
    3:14 "You're a light-headed!
    I suggest you to go to the woods...
    You are adorable!"
    3:28 "Little bear, little bear..."
    3:44 "You keep running, keep running, but there's nothing you can do about it."
    3:51 "You are there, I'm here..."
    3:58 "I'm gone dear, cause I've got classes to do.
    Bye! And we don't stay to socialise for too long..."
    4:11 "You are so cute! Bye...!"
    4:21 To another group: "Watch out! The bear is coming.
    Come on, take it easy and leave. All of you."
    4:48 To the bear: "Come on, come on, come on...
    We'll take another ride..."
    5:05 He loughs...
    To the bear: "Do you still can run...? Can you?"
    5:15 To the group: "Everybody must go to the valley."
    5:23 To the group: "You go forward, I'll stop him, no problem.
    There are a few more left up the slope."
    5:30 A man: "What? Bears...?"
    5:32 The instructor: "No... a group of tourists.
    Come on... they are gone to the valley."
    5:43 "Today we won't teach ski lessons anymore."
    5:46 To the bear: "Did you press the breaks, dear...?
    You've got tired, didn't you...?"
    5:57 "Come on.... go to the woods, cause otherwise they will pick you up and relocate you, or who knows what's gonna happen to you...
    Yeah."
    6:17 "You're nice, you're cute, but we don't socialise. Everyone goes on his own territory."
    6:26 "And.... regarding food, I haven't had any to give you, so... maybe some ski lessons."
    6:37 To the viewers: "So that's it with this recording... I made this video with the bear for you, so far you only had the one with the deer..."
    6:46 To somebody: "Watch out! He's here..."
    7:00 To the bear: "Hey you! Light-headed..."
    7:03 To the people: "He's here, on this side.
    You should come all together..."
    7:15 "He's gone into the woods. He's gone.
    It's OK now."
    7:26 "Let's not stay close to the woods, so he won't show up on our way... little monkey!"
    7:38 "Come on, come on!"

Nu numai ca i-a salvat pe toti, de pe partie,, practic devenind el tinta, dar calmul vocii, stapanirea de sine l-au imbunat chiar si pe urs, care mai mult avea chef de joaca, decat sa atace. Asta se datoreaza tot tonului vocii lui. REMARCABIL. Instinctul lui protector, de instructor, a primat, chiar daca dupa... a realizat ca s-a expus pe sine. NU este nici o urma de bravada in tot ce a facut. Voi chiar nu vedeti dincolo de cuvinte. Ma ingrozesc mai mult comentariile deplasate facute aici, decat ce i se putea intampla dl. antrenor.

    few translations to the people watching the video:
    1. The guy was not mocking or provoking the bear, he was a ski instructor attending a class and he kept telling him to go to the forest and was trying to keep the people in the group from panicking. He kept calling the bear cute :)
    2. The reason he made the bear chase him was to keep him away from the other people, in interviews he said this has happened before (in other words he wanted to provoke the chase instinct of the bear on purpose, so it goes after him instead of a child or something)
    3. He was warning people as he was going down the slope that theres a bear in order for them to leave"

This case may be smack your skis with the tips of your poles etc. neither he or anybody in the group did any of that. And if this happened before with this “ski instructor” maybe he’s just practicing to be a professional bear runner. The fact that he “led” the bear away from the group makes no sense. *You want to drive the bear away from you - back into the forest * he led the bear down the hill towards more skiers and directly in the path of his own students.

      Bears exist in the wild, the unforgiving, harsh wilderness. If they don’t get food, they die. They don’t have a McDonald’s or grocery store around the corner, like people do. The bear wasn’t joking around, he wanted to kill and eat the person for food. Yes it’s possible if the human had thrown the bear a bunch of food, the bear probably would have been happy with that (food + no risk = best case scenario for any animal in the wild). But short of having a ton of food to give the bear, the bear would have brutally eaten the person IF it caught him. The guy is very lucky he was a skilled and confident skier.

    Thé young bear shows his submission several times by lying down, posing his head on the ground etc. He tries many times to indicate his invitation to play. Although it is true that it’s never ok to feed the bears and yes, he « could » be hungry he demonstrates zéro agression, quite the contrary, only repeated « requests » to play, that would frighten the pants off most tourists. The ski instructor is HIGHLY professional, luring the bear away from the tourists (who all followed anyway, not too far behind) and even skiing backwards WHILE FILMING!!! So a BIG hero medal to the ski instructor for his professionalism (and backwards-skiing ability) and for succeeding at taking the bear away from the tourists. I suppose the next step is to set up training classes for all wildlife to teach them the border lines that humans have imposed on their wilderness habitat.

    That bear was not just curious.
    When the bear was laying down in the snow, next to the edge of the slope, it was actually behaving just like a bear on a hunt would do. I.e. the bear tried to fool the prey by looking uninterested, but at the same time slowly advancing tactically, closer and closer.
    So, the ski instructor would have been the next meal for the bear, had he stayed put instead of skiing down the slope.
    I have seen this behavior with polar bears several times before, exactly the same tactic (to play uninterested but slowly advance until within reach or the prey).
    I mean, the bear must have been really hungry. It wouldn't have run for so long otherwise. Bears are no maraton runners you know. Nor are they downhill skiers.

    Subadult bears are aggressive and a little concerning it’s actions with so many humans. I’m glad no one was hurt nor the bear either. High five to cameraman with correct bear interaction and it seemed he was helping to protect the others and the others cameraman as well. I held my breath thru most of the video.

    For those who think they understand whether the bear was aggressive, or playful, etc. Try watching more videos of bear encounters. Observe the bear's nature and see if you can decode the intent right from the initial frames of the video. I've seen many. Some bears climb into a guy's tree stand - seems distracted and non-aggressive, then suddenly does a test nip of his leg. Everything you think you know about reading an animal's intentions is from domestic animals. They have existed with humans for centuries. Even dogs have developed facial muscles for communicating their emotions which are absent from wolves. We can't take cues from what we think we know in the domestic animal context. Wild animals don't fit into this. They don't communicate their intentions. They don't anticipate what could happen next as they get closer to another creature - even aside from human encounters. The behaviour can flip in one second.

    Well it's not an ideal situation. Well handled by the main man. But we didn't see how it ended. The Bear did seem hungry. And that big run would have made him hungrier. And yes, you can see why you don't run, as running activates the Bears chase response. Over-all quite scary.
