I grew up knowing Wes, my father worked with him on the fire department and other city departments. I remember when my parents told me and the first time I saw Wes in person after the accident. He is so strong and amazing and he overcame such a terrible injury.
What a story, what a ‘man’, what great friends and loving family, and what an amazing outcome. Wes must be one of the strongest humans alive to endure what he’s endured. Wow, just wow. - Jason/Vermont, USA
@@SandwichGodAllMighty wym what?? Do you have any idea how hard it would be to annunciate without lips or tongue. It's pretty amazing how resilient human beings are. This man learned how to speak without lips or a tongue that's pretty amazing.

Wow, just an incredible story and thank you for sharing. It is stories like this that humble me and let me know that life is short and precious. Thank you again for sharing.
Thanks for sharing the event, Wes. I had only heard parts of the story before this. This is an inspiration for people dealing with that which should have made them give up. You're the man.
I'm going to be more greatful I had an accident in 2017 and the brain injury was and is the worst part about it I learned to walk worked and got the use of my right arm back but the mental issues with a TBI have made me a different person who has gotten so many indications recently that if I try to be greatful things will be what they will be bit I won't have to be miserable thank you for sharing your story I'm truly inspired
You obviously have a mission on this earth and it was not your time to go. Thank you for helping so many people, both before and after the attack. Peace and strength be with you, sir!
Wooow Wes when I heard about you I was determined to find the full story but y oh helping ppl pass thru it man lets me know the hearts you got bro and that’s why GOD had another plan for you brotha and it’s that helping others
I've been watching bear attacks for maybe a monthe now. I've learned so much. The first and most important thing ìs to stay out of bear country if you don't want to find yourself in a bear attack.
Same here. I love being out in nature, but have no desire to live anywhere that you can come face to face with a large, wild animal that could potentially take you out.
Long story short. Don’t come to someone’s house uninvited otherwise this will happen to you. They were hunting him and he got the upper hand. If only bears can speak !
Wes! Your one heck of a lucky, strong willed man. I can't imagine what you have been through and I pray to King Jesus I never do. That was one rough road to recovery but you DID IT! YOUR DOING IT! HOW WONDERFUL to have a second chance at life. Those bears are so strong. A person doesn't stand a chance. Everything happens quick and when they go for the face you get blinded! I want to thank your friends that were there to shoot the bear. They would have been next! They deserve so much praise for all they did! Great human beings! God wants you here for a reason and helping others is a GIFT TO THE WORLD. GOD BLESS YOU ❤ FROM Lori and Canada! 🎉❤.
Following the fresh tracks of a bear meant the predator could be close by and definitely not happy with the intrusion. That he was surprised betrayed the lack of anticipation. In the short clip (with a link to this video) the narrator said Wes hesitated --- to fire at the bear? I don't blame him but it's important to develop the proper reaction in this type of situation to be able to fire the weapon without hesitation.
By his own account he didn't hesitate - he straight up didn't have time to react. He says the moment he say the bear he had enough time to say "oh shit" while he got his gun half slung off his shoulder. A bear can cover 70 feet in just a few bounds, as fast a racehorse exploding out of the gate. He also states they saw the bear up ahead and wee following its tracks. They thought it was ahead of them but the bear doubled back (common with predators and even deer will do this). There is a saying among bear hunters: "some days you eat the bear, some day the bear eats you."
@@Gr8tBlueHeron Obviously, marble mouth, and friends didnt know its common for bears to double back. Proof that they were out of their element. Good on the bear.
@@dannydarko6929 You are one sad piece of work. Luckily for you Jesus is forgiving . Empathy seems to be “out of your element “ for the time being. But be prepared, life has a way of presenting those lessons that need learning.
@@dannydarko6929that Blue butthole wouldn’t last 2 minutes in NW Alaska. Wes is a true hero and a very giving soul. He saved my life in the spring of ‘23.
The amazing thing about bears is they can live a long time at an unusually low heart rate. This is what they do during hibernation and their body can take a lot of bullets and they just keep coming. You have to hit them with a kill shot is you are in close proximity and even then it’s a dangerous situation.
Jesus was watching over you that day! You survived for a reason. We all get new bodies when we get to Heaven! Lord knows we are all pretty rough on our bodies, God Bless You Wes
And while it is easy for us to say, God does work in mysterious ways especially in this situation. Wes, there is a reason why he allowed you to survive the attack and it will be revealed to you if it hasn’t already been. God bless and thank you for helping other survivors.
@azdinator It takes courage to survive, along with tenacity and a strong will to recover and learn to walk again, some people just give up. He could still be in a wheelchair chair. I'm a nurse, and I see people give up all the time. They end up bedridden and in a nursing home. Bitter and angry.
@@maaczka the same reason everyone who had died so far was a beautiful soul, always happy, brought joy to others life, had great plans for their future, and everyone loved to be around them. i guess.
Godbless you! I’m really sorry you went through a horrific moment like that! I hope the rest of your life is full of love and happiness! Your a strong human to be able to have that bear up on the wall, I can’t believe you can even be in the same room as a bear after what you experienced! But I am against hunting wildlife, it’s horrific for these animals to be hunted down as well and maybe you’ll realize that after what you experienced! We should have respect for all wildlife and leave them alone!
What do you people expect??? The bear was just being a bear and you were infringing ON ITS TERRITORY, tracking it, harassing it. This is what happens. THEN you punish the BEAR!! It's amazing the lack of conscience and shocking superiority in humans
This is in Alaska ya silly goose, the entire state is bear territory (30,000 grizzlies in Alaska). I guess we should just vacate the whole state and leave it to the bears huh. I’m sure they were well aware of the risks, not everyone wants to live a sheltered life indoors. I’m also not sure how you came to the conclusion that they were tracking and harassing it? But by all means go ahead and condemn humanity lmao, bless your heart.
Nobody blamed the bear and the bears rights were not substantially infringed. It seems like chasing a bear isn’t such an egregious thing. He assumed the risk and didn’t complain about the bear’s aggression. You are making a straw man argument against a non existent position.
Who are you talking to? They didn’t complain about the bear. They should just let the bear kill them and not protect themselves? That’s not punishing a bear.
I have to admit that was a bit hard for me to accept as well. His family and friends and many professionals went through enough the first time. Seems a bit selfish to risk a second incident
I am okay if there is a point of the hunt, but what was the point here? Saw a bear and let's kill it because the law allows it? Or do they eat the bear? Or make a jacket out of it, or a rug? If they hunted just to be outside and feel the ancient excitement, adrenalin from the hunt, I guess it's also okay in some way, since he is not complaining about the consequences appearantly, he just likes to hunt, even if his face was ripped off once already. They are like adrenalin junkees.
I'm sad for the bear who deserved to live out its life without being harassed and murdered by Wes and his equally worthless friends, who think they're big men for targeting beautiful creatures for kicks - as long as it's an unfair fight. Any POS who hunts animals for 'fun' richly deserves to be shredded, literally and metaphorically.
Woah there buddy. It’s rural Alaska we do what we have to protect our homes and keep game populations from plummeting. Until you have do what we do you can hop off your high horse.
Maybe it's just me but I can't help but think that if he wasn't hunting down that bear in the first place the whole mauling situation would never have happened. They were following it with the intention of killing it. The bear did what bears do and it attacked them because humans are food and a potential threat. This is the risk you take when hunting such dangerous animals. You are in their world and the tables could turn at any moment with such catastrophic consequences. You reap what you sow. I would have thought that such a horrific event would put him off hunting but when he got better he was straight back out there killing bears again and that just doesn't sit right with me. I just don't get it. You won't get that lucky twice. It's so messed up that people can hunt bears and kill them but if a bear retaliates and attacks a human then the bear gets tracked down eventually and killed for having the audacity to kill a human so the bear loses either way and that just isn't right at all. I know loads of Americans will say all that crap about hunting being their god given right which is just super depressing.
You killed a bear. What's the purpose ? To hunt bears ? you are completely devastated and the bear died. Sorry, but we can also let the nature in peace. The bear was living. You were living. He lost. You lost. Result: such a waste...just because you wanted to hunt...?
Life is the purpose. We're hunters by nature. We've been hunting animals for millions of years. This is life. But you're too detached from reality to accept it. To accept life and death.
@@kevinbacon8940 I hope you're vegan, otherwise you're just a hypocrite. Because if you're not vegan, you're buying meat from animals that have been kept prisoners their entire lives and violently killed in a slaughterhouse. And that's way worse than hunting a free bear that has been living freely in the wild its entire life.
@iNuuutz I know right, this comment section is amazing...the number of people who are rooting for the bear... I'm not a hunter, and I would never track a bear. I'm also an older female who was raised in the city. But this comment section is really interesting, to say the least. The number of people who are rooting for the bear and don't understand the obstacles this man has overcome is amazing to me... Hmmmm...guess I'm just old-fashioned, lol!
What I'm about to say may sound negative but it's not meant to be. Has it ever occurred to sport hunters that your fate to be mauled or killed or hunted by a bear is simply nature letting know killing animals for sport is not a natural thing. Animals hunting each other or a human fighting a bear by hand is natural. Using a bow or rifle is not conducive to nature. I'm sorry for your fate but nature won this time and I say yay for nature.
Given that the guys planned to remove the insides of the bear and stuff it with preservative to display as a statue, What the bear did to the guy was comparatively kind.

Life is the purpose. We're hunters by nature. We've been hunting animals for millions of years. This is life. But you're too detached from reality to accept it. To accept life and death.
@@kevinbacon8940 I hope you're vegan, otherwise you're just a hypocrite. Because if you're not vegan, you're buying meat from animals that have been kept prisoners their entire lives and violently killed in a slaughterhouse. And that's way worse than hunting a free bear that has been living freely in the wild its entire life.
@iNuuutz I know right, this comment section is amazing...the number of people who are rooting for the bear...
I'm not a hunter, and I would never track a bear. I'm also an older female who was raised in the city. But this comment section is really interesting, to say the least. The number of people who are rooting for the bear and don't understand
the obstacles this man has overcome is amazing to me... Hmmmm...guess I'm just old-fashioned, lol!
God bless you.
God bless the bear.
What I'm about to say may sound negative but it's not meant to be. Has it ever occurred to sport hunters that your fate to be mauled or killed or hunted by a bear is simply nature letting know killing animals for sport is not a natural thing. Animals hunting each other or a human fighting a bear by hand is natural. Using a bow or rifle is not conducive to nature. I'm sorry for your fate but nature won this time and I say yay for nature.
Given that the guys planned to remove the insides of the bear and stuff it with preservative to display as a statue,
What the bear did to the guy was comparatively kind.
