Lost hiker rescued after online bear cam captures him mouthing ‘Help me’

- A hiker who was lost in a remote Alaska national park was rescued last week after wildlife fans tuning into a live feed from a bear camera captured the distressed man on the screen mouthing the words “Help me.”
The video shared by Explore.org, a multimedia company that operates web cameras for the National Park Service and other entities worldwide, shows the haggard-looking trekker trudging through a thick fog on Dumpling Mountain in Katmai National Park last Tuesday.
As he passes by a camera installed to capture the park’s world-famous brown bears, the unshaven, sopping-wet traveler looks directly into the lens and mouths the words “Help me” and “Lost.”
A handful of viewers watching the feed at that time left comments in an Explore.org chat room alerting the company that there was someone in distress on the rain-swept trail.
The Park Service was then swiftly notified of the emergency situation.

Aww I’m glad they saved him, Cheers to the ones in the chat room who were able to help
I was there, it was so sad to see him crying. We had no audio. Be all of us could clearly see him saying "help me" 😢
@@Daveeeeeeyhowyoudoingwhat is link for that livestream?
blud stream sniping in distress 💀
@@Daveeeeeeyhowyoudoingwhat live was it? How can we watch it
That was crazy
I’m so glad people were able to get to him!! Yay!
So, there were 19 people watching fog? That's a level of boredom I can relate to.
Lol!!!
Many people watch these cameras for researching purposes. They have systems in place that record everything automatically, without the person being present. That counts as a live watch. Other than that, if it was not for those 19 people "watching fog," he might have been lost forever. Imagine being you in that situation. But that is not going to happen to those watching hundreds of hours a month irrelevant TV shows and sports games.
yah I sat on the beach all day and all night in the rain watching fog, drank beer in the process ...
😂😂😂 But maybe motion detection mode with alert for those not as enamored with fog.
there’s literally hundreds of similar livecams like this that are on 24/7 including dozens in national parks and nature preserves…people tune in at any time to see if there’s any action, this isn’t that out of the ordinary at all
Amazing.. Glad he was rescued.
This is so amazing! I’ve watched those video feeds a few times and this may be the greatest thing ever seen, someone desperately needing help and being rescued.
Bravo people!
Amazing story
I massively misread the title and thought it was saying an actual bear rescued him after seeing him on the camera
Waiting for the part where he mouths, "Help me".
Couldn't even hear what he said.
Fantastic!
Cheers🎉
What is more scary is knowing you are on a bear camera so high probability there are wild bears very close that could have got him
People shouldn't hike if they can get "lost" so easily. Fine them for the cost of operations
Lucky bear didn't walk his way
He watches bear grylls
Wow. About time technology helped somehow
Rack one up for Tech. That was one lucky hiker
Looks like he's maybe one from the left on the evolutionary chart.
Amazing story but terrible quality of reporting. The New York Post should do better than to have a tiny number of captions, no audible speaking, and annoying music. Whatever happened to real reporting?
Are you sure that is not a bear in disguise?
weird lookin bear
Lucky
I hope he knows how lucky he is that people are interested enough to watch wild animals possibly come by the camera.
I sometimes will have a random one open on my 2nd monitor while working on the first one, never seen anything interesting yet.
So true, me I just watch pimple popping videos…
I dont understand comments like this, they come off as rude. Of course he knows he is lucky. He got rescued. There is actually no need for these comments.
I'm sure he is lol you don't think that's crossed his mind?
@@zeldafitzgerald4149 and I don't see why you had to reply on my comment if you don't like it.
I am being rude, if you go hiking on a foggy day, or think there is even the slightest possibility of there being fog obstructing your way back home, be prepared. Make your starting place, carry a compus, let loved ones know where you are and what trail you're using, or at the very least carry bear spray and hope you can remember which way the sun sets.
I think people tend to forget we aren't on the top of the food chain, even though we like to think we are. He got lucky people are wanting to sit down and have a tab open on a wild game camera pointed out in the middle of nowhere. Who knows what could have happened to him if those 19 people weren't watching.
Nice to see social media used in a positive manner.
You said a mouthful there😊
Nah. They should cancel him
Not social media. That's the Internet
That's not social media...
@@OptimusGPrime there was a comment section on the video stream,sounds like social media to me
Poor guy looks soaked to the bone. I'm glad he was able to get help and is okay. Must have been a frightening situation for him.
Right!?!! He was in bear territory
gee, you think? he was probably 90% sure that he was going to die out there in unforgiving Alaska, but he knew he had to keep going if he was going to make the most of that other 10%
I’m impressed that of the 19 people, more than one cared enough to recognize he was asking for help and had the motivation to get him help.
Edit: apparently, the viewers were able to chat with each other, so it wasn’t just 19 people watching a video at the same time. They were able to coordinate and contact the authorities to rescue him.
Same type of person who will watch a livestream of nature
@@xxOldSouL yep!
>I’m impressed that of the 19 people, more than one cared enough
Yeah and you're not one of them and will never be because all you do is gaslight in the comments section.
@@justcrap3703 you tried.
To be fair, unless I knew he was missing and lost, I wouldn't report that. I'd just think some guy was wandering in front of the camera 😬
The power of people!!!! When you can help you MUST take action!!!!
as long as you can do so without risking your own safety...
Amen!
@@instacat1112 hence "When you can"
@@BilalF96 Most people think they can't help, when they actually can.
@@ElSantoLuchadorExactly. Most people don’t want to intervene when they can actually impact a change in someone’s life.
Those heroes are MY bear peeps!!! 🥰🐻🥳. Great job bear Pals!!! I'm so very proud of you all 🤗🐻🐻💋
I’m a bear pal
I’m guessing this is a really wholesome bear watching community and I am all for you guys, that sounds so cute 🥰
@@glennmatthews758think we just stumbled into something very sweet and wholesome for once 😂
Frick it! I'm a bear pal too 🐻 (as a bear pal I'm not cussing anymore)
@@jakethasnake3524 me too, as a recently converted bear pal, am I absolved of all my previous cussing?
That’s great and all…I just wonder why they didn’t use the segment of video feed with him actually mouthing the words “Help me.”
Seems like a no-brainer but I guess they didn’t want to give us the satisfaction of seeing that but…despite it being the sole focus of the video…? 🙄 Anyway, still an awesome story and I’m sure dude wakes up every morning a bit more thankful to be alive than he was before!
AWESOME 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻😏SEE WHAT WE CAN DO IF WE PULL TOGETHER!!❤
A cool use of surveillance!
Wow it’s amazing that he even came across a camera
That's great! Trail cams are fantastic and on remote trails, etc, life saving as proved 👏🏻👏🏽👏
It’s so funny to think to me that bear Internet would be videos of the wilderness
What a blessing! Thank you to those paying attention.
Personally I don't think anybody should spend a single dollar for rescuing these idiots.
They enjoy to be alone in the middle of nowhere without any food and equipment? Just leave them alone then and let them learn an important lesson...
@@Alfred-Neuman Waaah! Money more important than people!
@@adriendereumaux
For some people, yes, absolutely!
@@Alfred-Neumanhe'll grow and learn. Some people will never have any kind of adventure ever.
Dude was LUCKY. Heart of a grizzly infested area and he’s alive to tell
The dude was dumb as a rock for being there in the first place.
Bears in the wilderness aren’t an infestation
@@sjacraneit’s slang for saying there’s a lot of bears in that area don’t be obtuse.
@@alleycat616 if you say so
Much more likely to have died from the cold tbf
This is what happens when you do not wear the proper gear.
This guy is lucky a bear was watching the cam at the time.
That's awesome!
The bear that was online at the time is the real hero.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah bears have notoriously spotty internet
"Jamie, pull up that video of a bear watching a lost hiker on a trail cam."
i wonder if it was the bear from Conan's late night show... i heard he's fallen on hard times, and relies on fetish cams to get by
What an amazing story! I can see the desperation in his eyes.
🙏💝
FYI there may have been 17 people watching that particular cam but there are usually hundreds watching the 9 other cams, some viewers are in Australia or Europe.
Nice job
The bear that spotted him on the webcam and called the authorities actually thought he was ordering take-out.
Glad he found a camera before a bear found it
Correction: Glad he found the camera before a bear found him.
@@sorellmanmy thoughts as well
Awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Just another rescye for Bearjovi.
Hiking alone in a wilderness like Alaska, great idea. But glad he's OK.
Yes! Thank you to those watching! ❤️🙏🙌🏼
All those cameras should have a sign saying stay in front of camera and wait for help if you’re in trouble
The only problem is this camera is in a place with a lot of bears!!!
That guy needs to play the lottery asap
Great story. Happy Ending.
No wonder the cameraman never dies... he is a HUGE bear!
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Bruh*
My Katmai Bear Friends are the best!
Such a great ending to what could have been tragic! Smart hiker!!!👍
He got himself lost, with no compass, map or phone. That’s not smart.
I am impressed with the guys who called for help. I bet they felt silly but they braved their own doubts and did the right thing.
OH MAN !, YOU'RE AMAZING!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICES TO ALL PEOPLES. THIS WAS NO JOKE AND YOU WERE THERE TO SAVE THIS MAN .. BRAVO ‼️
Awesome!
Glad people overcame the bystander effect and actually helped
Great point
Or it wasn't turned into so twisted black mirror episode like white bear
If I'd seen this I would've assumed he was staff. He seemed fine.
(if he'd written a note, that'd be different).
Bystander effect usually only occurs in person.
@@botdog370 it does
Thank goodness for live camera feeds and the people who installed them!!
And watch them.
Well done to the viewers for contacting the bear surveillance service, and got assistance to this man.
The location is publicly known, should've just called the NPS directly. Lucky they still got to him in time anyways.
Thank you guys for reporting him to need help!!!!!!!
What a blessed break 4 the hiker, that others were there paying attention, necessating his rescue. 👍
That's why idk how people do it man I could never I went camping once at Yosemite with my whole family and even though I was with them I felt like something could of happened
@Bulliegh How do u know what I know...a..h...!
@@estherellis6032 Well, either you don't know how to use the word, which is ignorant but forgivable, or you just WANT to use it incorrectly, which is just plain warped. Being lost is what was "necessitating" his rescue. The camera and its viewers were FACILITATING his rescue.
happy ending...👍...cold & wet...like he couldn't 'bear' the weather...😂😂😂
Karen, you're not allowed to film me.
Awesome
He did not plan very well. Give up hiking. Take up another hobby.
I'm surprised these haven't been intentionally placed throughout the park and surrounding areas for such a reason. This does happen to unfortunate people or people who are more confident than prepared. A camera station every few miles marked by GPS would greatly increase chances of survival and give the person in distress a confidence boost. Also a small supply box could be added with emergency thermal blanket, sleeping bags, magnesium fire starter and potentially canned food sealed in vacuumed bags by someone with uncontaminated hands so bears won't smell it, but if bears are around possibly add bear spray however it could be a useful system to help rescuers minimize cost and guesswork therefore saving resources but most of all saving a life
And a little button in a sealed box that could be broken in case of emergency to signal the need for help!
@mynameisgladiator1933 great, just know like a Breitling if help is summoned and it's a prank then the prankster when caught will be liable for the rescue mission, time + materials. They better hope no Jhawk helis are involved
@@mynameisgladiator1933problem with that is a bear will break it open 🤣
@@bostonrailfan2427Just like they already broke the camera off the perch. 🤣🤣🤣
Kind of defeats the concept of “ wilderness” imo. Guess we haven’t gotten soft wanting “ big brother “ watching our every move and protecting us
Awesome!
Wonderful
Oh wow, so glad he was found and what a smart idea to go on the camera!
How did i not discover thier live cam channel all this time.
Thisan was blessed this day.
That's a place Biden should visit while he's in Alaska. The more bears the better .
Maybe you'll be a better candidate
Go into the wild unprepared, expect to die. Pretty simple
Wow his Apple Watch could not have saved him?
lucky man!
Great use of technology! 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
Hallelujah 🙏🙏👍
You just don't expect how helpful you and what you own can be to another people
hes very lucky
This is a phenomenal occurrence. Huge props to those who called and those who took action!
Wow what luck 🍀
That's what's up I could never go hiking too scared lol
why can't a one million subscriber youtube link to us this livestream that 19 people were watching. I want to watch this now 😡
why?
Nice to hear people online were able to do something positive!
An Apple iPhone 14 or the latest iPhone 15 with emergency SOS would come in handy in his situation. I am glad he was rescued.
Samsung has had that feature for years. But it only works on either device if you have a network connection and a charged phone. It doesn't do much when you don't have service.
@@ThatGirlJD SOS Emergency actually won't work if you have a network connection because it's only for emergencies in which you don't. If you have a network connection, you also have a phone connection, so you can call 911 instead. Also, I just looked it up and Samsung does not have sattelite antennaes in their phone, you are mistaken.
I saw the thumbnail and thought it was that depressing guy’s music video 😂 glad this guy was smart and got help
Yeah...let's not report on any actual issues in our country.
Lucky the bear called in sick that day
This is what the Internet was invented for. NOT sniveling about Donald Trump!
"cheers!"
I thought this was a Coldplay video.
"Look at the stars. Look how they shine for you, and all the things you do"
Well done technology
What did he say? "I'm a dumb f*ck who is lost in the wilderness by my own design, help me"
Buncha nerds watchin bears.
🙏🙏
What do you know? An actually real heartwarming story.
Bear waltzed by about 10 minutes later 💀
Humanity at its best

There are VERY few heroes wearing white coats. O_o
Some wear brown or black coats. Some chase you up a tree and eat you.
