@@tanner201x8 What, that elks can run 40 mph? Or that _this particular_ guy clocked _this particular_ elk doing 40? Lol. Don't mind me, I was just being a pedantic smart aleck.
If anyone bothered to read the description they'd know the elk died by being shot in the heart, a little while earlier and as it was running away it crashed into the trees and died.
Over 50 years ago I went to hunt camp in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. I'd never hunted and had only fired a rifle once in my life. I was there as camp cook. On the third day one of my fellow hunters returned late in the morning. I had purchased a license but didn't expect to hunt. Tommy offered to let me use his iron sight .303 and I took him up on it. At this point none of the five hunters had even seen a deer. Everyone was back in and I headed out of the cabin. I didn't get 50 feet from the door when a good sized spikehorn stepped out of the swamp about 60 yards away and started walking camly toward me. I was really pumped up and fumbled with the safety and tried to shoulder the weapon. The buck kept walking toward me and at about 30 yards I aimed for the chest and fired. He came down at me running full tilt. He was about 10 yards away when he took a hard left into the swamp ....... a couple of seconds later there was a huge crash ,then nothing. The cabin emptied and the guys wanted to know what I was shooting for so close to camp. I explained and a short search ensued. We found the spike with little difficulty and upon further inspection could not find an entry or exit wound. He cooked up just fine. Tommy said I was so ugly that I scared him to death. When field dressing him it became apparent that his neck was broken , probably the crash I heard. I got my first deer but didn't really qualify as a successful hunter.
I'm calling BS on this clip, some of the wild trees in that area have been known to hunt in pairs and can sprint at speeds upwards of 20 miles an hour in short bursts. As long as you have your leaf trimmers and some tree spray you can usually thwart an ambush. they tend not to hunt humans anyway
That’s so true!, and clearly this elk was ambushed by those trees and they stopped him causing his neck to snap, and now they just stay there feeding on his insides in secret
The amount of force and kinetic energy to snap that elk’s neck is just phenomenal. It had to have gotten spooked in the dark and was trying to dart between the trees and crunch it was over quick. Shame it wasn’t found right away that’s a huge amount of food that could feed hungry people

Not exactly the same but I've seen a similar situation with an American Whitetail in southern Illinois. My papa took a shot at a fairly sizable buck and missed, but the miss was close enough the thing took off like a rocket through the muddy bottoms. It tried to jump across a small creek running through the bottom and caught one antler on a tree growing up the side of said creek, twisted its head right around and broke its neck from its momentum. Was definitely an interesting sight.
@@TheBuhrewnoShow I don't think so. I didn't see any blood or wounds, animals this big leave a huge trail of blood behind them and a pool where they fall so If it were a gunshot you'd see it.
@@YblockEnthusiast agreed, I can’t see clear enough but my guess is he snapped his neck or some other kind of neck/spine damage that was almost instantly fatal.
@@YblockEnthusiast never mind, I did not read the description of the video. He was shot in the heart up the hill and ran full speed into that tree afterward.
Quick note, be sure to read all text before ‘reaction commenting’ 😉. Description said, “ heart shot up the hill”. Also, the channel is ‘hunting and angling content only’ 😉. The old bull died very quickly,( humane I guess is the ‘in word’). This OLD past his prime bull fed 13 mouths, nothing wasted 🥳. ( as usual).
Without knowing anything I could tell he was not breathing and assuming he broke his neck wedged in those trees. But now reading your post I understand how he came to rest where he did. 👍
Great video and I did read the full description. I would have loved to see that shot and the elk running into the trees would have laughed my ass off. And its a damn nice Bull!!!
My initial reaction before reading the full description was something of a police detective. “He must have been running from a bear or something to get wedged like that. But why didn’t they feed on him?” Then I read a few more comments and realized it was in pure adrenaline fueled panic in the last few moments of his life. Imagine getting blasted in the heart and still being able to fully sprint away!
I was driving to a grizzly hunt once. Just before hitting a curvy section of the mountain road, where it split off, signs were everywhere. One read “Bear Left” so I knew I’d been defeated and I turned around and went back home.
What a majestic creature, even in death... Also, damn, what a way to go, "my absolute brolic horns got me in the end, was in middle of threading the needle and I was just simply too much of A FUCKING BEAST that it ended up killing me"
For a second my dumb ass thought you just happened to find him dead. I was thinking ‘damn that big boy must’ve hit them trees hard’ but then realized you got him lol awesome video
Wow that's a once in a lifetime thing to see right there. Great to hear how many people he was a le to provide meat to. I grew up hunting, havent in many years. I dont understand how people can talk crap about something they have never done or have had to do before. This meat is healthier then anything you will ever buy. Thanks for sharing the video!
@@leedavies7214 maybe because it has a natural diet and the happiness of freedom. People care about origin and upbringing when it comes to their ribs these days. It's higher quality
@@geraldfoushee it wasn't "found dead". They shot it, it had an uncontrollable andrenaline rush which caused it to end up as it did. No where close to being road kill.
Well to be fair that elk was shot near the heart and panicking and running from the hunters while bleeding and hit a tree in full speed. That elk had a pretty good excuse for dieing like that. Not that much of dumb way to die if you know the circumstances
Trees are the ultimate ambush killers. Those maples didn't move for 20 years and they killed the elk so cleanly that there're no puncture wounds of any kind. What patience. Unreal.
I used to live in this shitty place with no steps down from the door to outside. One day I stepped down onto the cinderblock and a leaf blew under my foot with less than 6 inches to go and I stepped on it, only it wasn't a leaf, it was a bird. He literally was JUST in time to get killed. Not really a hunting story but crazily unlucky for the bird.
In terms of craziest (and most hilarious) animal behavior I've seen was a drunk squirrel. He got into some leftover Jack-o-lantern that had fermented on someone's porch. Felt kinda bad for him, since it was such a new and disorienting experience for him, but I'll be darned if it wasn't the funniest thing to watch (especially when he decided to try and climb a tree). Little guy would only make it about a foot off the ground before he keeled over backwards and peeled himself off the bark. I have no idea how he managed to land on his feet every single time. 🤣 As an aside, he was just fine once he slept it off and sobered up. Saw him two days later, and he was happily scampering around. Pretty sure he learned to give fermented foods a miss too.
@@high4lfye243catching birds I see them do that all time they start going crazy when their dehydrated or to clumped up even fligh Into me at times haha
Actually, the elk didn't try to run through those 2 trees. Rather, it was blind and didn't see where it was going. Here's the reason why: The retinas in its eyes have the highest metabolic rate in the entire body by far... about 7 times greater than even the brain.... so when the blood pressure to the head dropped precipitously, the retinas didn't have the oxygen needed to function.... so vision was the first thing to go (especially with a heart shot) and the elk was essentially running blind. I've shot bears this way and they ran straight into large trees.... but they weren't trying to run through the tree.... they simply couldn't see what was right in front of them!
Wow. I was immediately reminded of one cold snowy morning my cousin and I hunkered down behind a log, and he started bugling, and guess what? well, within a few shakes a bull much like this one, was up close and personal, I'll never forget how his eyes were bulging and his breath blowing in clouds. He stunk. He was magnificent. He was lucky in that he glimpsed my cousin just as he rose, with arrow notched, and Exploded. Exploded is the correct word, shovel sized chunks of sod and snow flew from his hooves and he sprinted for the timber wherein he turned his head sideways. The sound of those shovelhandle sized green limbs popping off his horns, six feet above the ground as he dissappeared up the mountain is clear as I recall it now. It echoed like gunshots. Thanks for sharing, the memory was excellent. :-]
Guy 1: "ever see anything like that before" Guy 2: "sure, all the time, you haven't? Elk are always getting stuck between trees, it's a wonder they are not extinct, ay"
@@dustintunis9347 description says it was shot in the heart a little further uphill. So it ran a ways and this happened. Makes sense why it would attempt it. A merciful death considering nature
People who liked this search for the whitetail doe which was recorded slowly walking into a calm shallow river until her head went under and she didn't fight it at all, it was the craziest wildlife video I've found. She wasn't shot but probably had CWD from deer being overcrowded. I know from hunting for my own meat for over 35 years that when deer are wounded they often submerse themselves in water with only their snout sticking above the water but to have a non wounded one drown itself was shocking. I've culled whole herds of deer with CWD and seen them run in small circles and try to climb trees like goats do..i'ts really a shame and sad.
Yeah its honestly really upsetting to see like I've seen herds of them in my town and the local police and my family had to get rid of them and put them down and it hurt because all the meat had to go to waste
That is something you won't likely see twice! It must've died instantly from a sheared brainstem. That so-called "rapid deceleration" has a tendency to yield fatal results for humans too. My first year working in CID as a fairly new detective I was called to a suspicious death scene on a popular bike path. Area kids had gone into the woods where they built themselves a pretty kickass track with double and triple jumps, and tall sweeping berms you would more likely find at a racetrack. One of the local drunks (stumblebum is no longer PC I guess) was wedged on his chest face first against the rising side of a jump he obviously failed to clear. The BMX bike he had been riding was on top of him, with his legs bent awkwardly up as if time froze upon his landing. At his autopsy we found his brainstem sheared as crisp and neat as if it was severed with a laser. That good looking mature bull has it's snout angled similarly to the guy at the bike path incident I processed years ago. Thanks for sharing this incredibly rare occurrence Steve!
Over the years, I've found several large deer skulls with antlers lodged in the forks of trees. They get stuck and die and went their body separated from.the head, the skull is left just hanging their
Still alive scared to death watching them walk up and he’ll start to be eaten alive by birds and small animals/bugs until he dies from the birds or dehydration or a predator big enough to kill him faster than dehydration and birds
Elk are known for their native, cheery dispositions and rarely ever suffer depression deeply enough to commit suicide. Our friend here was obviously a profoundly troubled soul.
Imagine just how lucky of a hunter you have to be to stumble upon such a find of an elk that was in great shape. Man all that meat harvested with no fuss. Save half and feed a needy family with the rest. Wow
I've seen deer get hung up in the vines try to cut through the brushes or something like that but never anything like this! I always wondered if it were something that happened or if somehow the animals just instinctively knew how wide their head was with antlers and didn't try to do it but this is proof positive!
Yeah they run far distances but once it comes to a rifle they just get kn down by the power of it. It’s crazy but with a mussel loader I’ve had them run 300 yards until they dropped while there both lungs and heart are blown out
@@Hondaboy2325 At the time, I think I read a bunch of comments on people theorizing on how this happened instead of reading the description. Looks like the comments have evolved since then though.
My dad who just passed away at 94 this Dec. told me a hunting story. His hunting partner shot a whitetail and it ran into a tree and ended up in a headstand, jammed in the trees. This was in the early 60's before I was born. Crazy stuff can happen in the bush.......
I love that... your showing my age. I do remember that song all to well. Frankenstein also came to mind lol. Now I'm going to find my CD. I got rid of my LP's 😫
Shot a deer on a full run at 60yds the slug hit him so hard it flew him away into a pine tree. As I watched n walked up to him , something seem off , as he was standing up on all 4 legs. so I got my 12ga at the ready, when 5ft from him I could tell he was dead. in it's side was a branch that went into him holding him up! Had to pull him off the branch to get him. Michigan Manistee national Forest.
My older brother shot a big 10pt. whitetail on our lease in Mo. years ago with his .35 Rem and it bolted off down the hill through the timber. He heard a very loud crash and knew the deer was surely dead. He came and got me to help him get it out and when we found the buck it was lodged in a huge cedar tree with both back feet about 2 feet off the ground. He was just hanging there that was one of the strangest things I've ever seen on a deer recovery.
It makes me wonder what those two trees had to say when they went home to their wives that night. And one of the wives says, "Oh, for heaven's sake Leroy, I've never heard you make up something that stupid in a LONG time."
Wow! I wonder what made a mature bull run in or try to run in between two trees like that or do we already suspect he might have been running away from danger? Steve what are your thoughts?
@TreasureSweeper I made a heart shot on a black bear with a compound bow. The bear stood straight up, let out the most primal death moan I’ve ever heard and fell over dead. I guarantee anyone that was within a mile of that place heard that bear’s death moan and wondered WTH it was. Of course, arrows usually make a bigger wound channel than most bullets. I was using heavy aluminum arrows and fixed blade broad heads. I was hunting white oak acorns and waited 45 minutes for that bear to come broadside and give me a perfect shot.
@@sierraridgereaper Yep they do. I've shot several elk in the heart with archery equipment and they explode out of there after the shot. Lung shots I've had them just flinch and keep standing still like nothing happened until they get woozy and start staggering.
@@wasidanatsali6374 I've heard that death moan from a bear and it chilled me to the bone. I was not the shooter. I didn't even know what happened. I heard the guy I was elk calling for shoot his bow and a bunch of commotion then that moan echoing through the dark timber. When we hunt we set up facing in opposite directions about 50yds apart so nothing dangerous can get between us or sneak in behind us. That is exactly what happened on this hunt. A 6'2" jet black boar came in to my lost calf elk calls and my partner slammed him at about 7yds.
Back in Texas, I once had a doe running in the ditch alongside the truck. Around 30mph. Out of nowhere she cut across in front an tried to leap the barb wire fence on the other side. She hit the top strand with her neck at an angle, sliding down the wire until slamming into the next post. It was like a can of red spray paint exploded! Nearly severed her head.
My dad shot a cow moose broadside. It was standing right next to a tree, the tree was right behind its head. Dad said when he hit it, it dropped its head and bucked for a bit and laid right where it was shot. As he walked up he realized the tree forked right at the base and when the cow dropped her head, she was stuck. He said that was the hardest animal he's ever had to cut up.
That's spooky. I had a bird fly into my window on my apartment so hard it left a perfect imprint, shit itself on impact, died instantly, and the local cats dragged it off right away like it's a common thing.
My husband was pacing a flying mallard duck on the open road, it was watching him too and flew straight into a lampost - as my husband said 'the last thing it saw was its head passing thru its a'hole'. True story, hubby was buzzing lol.
Yes it is rather. I love deer. Or Elk. I don’t know the difference. But such majestic and magnificent animals. It’s a very sad sight to see him this way. What a horrible predicament. I hope he was in way too much shock that when he impacted with his mighty horns, it broke his neck and he instantly died. Rest in the great wilderness in Elk heaven where there’s no hunters or predators after you.
@@jostewart554 Without managed hunts in the upper Midwest, most of the herds won't make it through the winters because of a lack of food. In the spring and summers the herds grow quite a lot; more than the environment can sustain them in the winter. The Departments of Natural Resources in these states and provinces studies the food situations for each area they oversee and determine the number of deer and/or elk permits they'll issue every season to thin the herd down so most of the herd can survive the winters. Even then with rough winters, the herds sometimes have to be fed with bales of hay or other foodstuff dropped into the forests, usually by hunters who actively help out to keep the herd alive and most often pay out of pocket and volunteer their time.

@@Tabor_Truth They shot it before recording this.

@@YblockEnthusiast agreed, I can’t see clear enough but my guess is he snapped his neck or some other kind of neck/spine damage that was almost instantly fatal.
@@YblockEnthusiast never mind, I did not read the description of the video. He was shot in the heart up the hill and ran full speed into that tree afterward.
Quick note, be sure to read all text before ‘reaction commenting’ 😉.

The old bull died very quickly,( humane I guess is the ‘in word’).

On the window of my cell phone it does not state what you said it did. If you're says elk pin between 2 trees
Hey pal , so you know you have to click on the down arrow on right to read full video description.
Without knowing anything I could tell he was not breathing and assuming he broke his neck wedged in those trees. But now reading your post I understand how he came to rest where he did. 👍
Great video and I did read the full description. I would have loved to see that shot and the elk running into the trees would have laughed my ass off. And its a damn nice Bull!!!
I bet that tastes amazing Steve !
My initial reaction before reading the full description was something of a police detective. “He must have been running from a bear or something to get wedged like that. But why didn’t they feed on him?” Then I read a few more comments and realized it was in pure adrenaline fueled panic in the last few moments of his life. Imagine getting blasted in the heart and still being able to fully sprint away!
I shot a deer in the eye, blew 25% of its skull away. That thing still ran 30 yards before sideswiping a tree.

Well to be fair that elk was shot near the heart and panicking and running from the hunters while bleeding and hit a tree in full speed. That elk had a pretty good excuse for dieing like that. Not that much of dumb way to die if you know the circumstances

As a hunter I have seen crazy stuff in the woods. This is definitely the craziest.
I’ve seen a crow slam itself into a tree and fell down the tree on to the ground.
I used to live in this shitty place with no steps down from the door to outside. One day I stepped down onto the cinderblock and a leaf blew under my foot with less than 6 inches to go and I stepped on it, only it wasn't a leaf, it was a bird. He literally was JUST in time to get killed. Not really a hunting story but crazily unlucky for the bird.
In terms of craziest (and most hilarious) animal behavior I've seen was a drunk squirrel. He got into some leftover Jack-o-lantern that had fermented on someone's porch. Felt kinda bad for him, since it was such a new and disorienting experience for him, but I'll be darned if it wasn't the funniest thing to watch (especially when he decided to try and climb a tree). Little guy would only make it about a foot off the ground before he keeled over backwards and peeled himself off the bark. I have no idea how he managed to land on his feet every single time. 🤣 As an aside, he was just fine once he slept it off and sobered up. Saw him two days later, and he was happily scampering around. Pretty sure he learned to give fermented foods a miss too.

Actually, the elk didn't try to run through those 2 trees. Rather, it was blind and didn't see where it was going. Here's the reason why: The retinas in its eyes have the highest metabolic rate in the entire body by far... about 7 times greater than even the brain.... so when the blood pressure to the head dropped precipitously, the retinas didn't have the oxygen needed to function.... so vision was the first thing to go (especially with a heart shot) and the elk was essentially running blind. I've shot bears this way and they ran straight into large trees.... but they weren't trying to run through the tree.... they simply couldn't see what was right in front of them!

Wow. I was immediately reminded of one cold snowy morning my cousin and I hunkered down behind a log, and he started bugling, and guess what? well, within a few shakes a bull much like this one, was up close and personal, I'll never forget how his eyes were bulging and his breath blowing in clouds. He stunk. He was magnificent.
He was lucky in that he glimpsed my cousin just as he rose, with arrow notched, and Exploded.
Exploded is the correct word, shovel sized chunks of sod and snow flew from his hooves and he sprinted for the timber wherein he turned his head sideways. The sound of those shovelhandle sized green limbs popping off his horns, six feet above the ground as he dissappeared up the mountain is clear as I recall it now.
It echoed like gunshots.
Thanks for sharing, the memory was excellent. :-]

People who liked this search for the whitetail doe which was recorded slowly walking into a calm shallow river until her head went under and she didn't fight it at all, it was the craziest wildlife video I've found.
She wasn't shot but probably had CWD from deer being overcrowded. I know from hunting for my own meat for over 35 years that when deer are wounded they often submerse themselves in water with only their snout sticking above the water but to have a non wounded one drown itself was shocking. I've culled whole herds of deer with CWD and seen them run in small circles and try to climb trees like goats do..i'ts really a shame and sad.
Yeah its honestly really upsetting to see like I've seen herds of them in my town and the local police and my family had to get rid of them and put them down and it hurt because all the meat had to go to waste
What's cwd
@@newspaperbin6763 Chronic wasting desease, if I'm not wrong
@@windwood7168 correct and it is horrible because it pretty much makes them in to "zombie deer"
That has to have hurt. Can you imagine getting stopped dead in your tracks at 40mph by something attached to your head?
That is something you won't likely see twice! It must've died instantly from a sheared brainstem. That so-called "rapid deceleration" has a tendency to yield fatal results for humans too.
My first year working in CID as a fairly new detective I was called to a suspicious death scene on a popular bike path. Area kids had gone into the woods where they built themselves a pretty kickass track with double and triple jumps, and tall sweeping berms you would more likely find at a racetrack.
One of the local drunks (stumblebum is no longer PC I guess) was wedged on his chest face first against the rising side of a jump he obviously failed to clear. The BMX bike he had been riding was on top of him, with his legs bent awkwardly up as if time froze upon his landing. At his autopsy we found his brainstem sheared as crisp and neat as if it was severed with a laser.
That good looking mature bull has it's snout angled similarly to the guy at the bike path incident I processed years ago.

The trees probably had enough of this elk rubbing his antlers on them and decided to introduce him to Isaac Newton and physics.
The sheer terror he must have experienced before dying.
He was running "dead" after being shot! Probably took one LAST breath when heard the bow let off the arrow and once it was gone so was he!
Probably confusion more than anything.
I did that once while riding a three wheeler. That sudden stop when the two rear wheel hung those two trees about kilt me.
It makes me wonder what those two trees had to say when they went home to their wives that night. And one of the wives says, "Oh, for heaven's sake Leroy, I've never heard you make up something that stupid in a LONG time."

Wow! I wonder what made a mature bull run in or try to run in between two trees like that or do we already suspect he might have been running away from danger? Steve what are your thoughts?
It was shot in the heart...
OH WOW! It had to have just happened, he's not even starting to bloat at all yet.
He was heart shot by the hunter. When heart shot most animals tuck and run full speed til they drop. This one jus got wedged between the trees.
@TreasureSweeper I made a heart shot on a black bear with a compound bow. The bear stood straight up, let out the most primal death moan I’ve ever heard and fell over dead. I guarantee anyone that was within a mile of that place heard that bear’s death moan and wondered WTH it was.
Of course, arrows usually make a bigger wound channel than most bullets. I was using heavy aluminum arrows and fixed blade broad heads. I was hunting white oak acorns and waited 45 minutes for that bear to come broadside and give me a perfect shot.
@Bedrock Miner Don Yeah I'm guessing. I was waiting for Steve to explain what went down and the video ended.

I heard the guy I was elk calling for shoot his bow and a bunch of commotion then that moan echoing through the dark timber. When we hunt we set up facing in opposite directions about 50yds apart so nothing dangerous can get between us or sneak in behind us. That is exactly what happened on this hunt. A 6'2" jet black boar came in to my lost calf elk calls and my partner slammed him at about 7yds.
Back in Texas, I once had a doe running in the ditch alongside the truck. Around 30mph. Out of nowhere she cut across in front an tried to leap the barb wire fence on the other side. She hit the top strand with her neck at an angle, sliding down the wire until slamming into the next post. It was like a can of red spray paint exploded! Nearly severed her head.

Rest in the great wilderness in Elk heaven where there’s no hunters or predators after you.
@@jostewart554 Without managed hunts in the upper Midwest, most of the herds won't make it through the winters because of a lack of food. In the spring and summers the herds grow quite a lot; more than the environment can sustain them in the winter. The Departments of Natural Resources in these states and provinces studies the food situations for each area they oversee and determine the number of deer and/or elk permits they'll issue every season to thin the herd down so most of the herd can survive the winters. Even then with rough winters, the herds sometimes have to be fed with bales of hay or other foodstuff dropped into the forests, usually by hunters who actively help out to keep the herd alive and most often pay out of pocket and volunteer their time.
I never wondered about this before but now I wonder how often does this actually happen?
