The one thing nobody understands about coastal brown bears (including Treadwell) is that they are like two different species depending on whether the salmon are running or not. During the salmon run (when all of Treadwell's footage was shot) they are pretty safe to be around. Before and after the runs they are far more dangerous, more like inland grizzlies. The first time, the very first time Treadwell went out in early October after the salmon runs were over he was killed and eaten.
Treadwell missed his plane out of there A few days before the attack, due to inclement weather. He knew he shouldn't have been there at that time. He even wrote it in his diary Their plane ride out of there was scheduled for october fifth. They were eaten on the seventh. Timothy knew.
@@keyfinder257 When you live in remote parts of coastal Alaska as I did most of my life you fish next to brown bears all summer. You don't see that in Treadwell's films, fisherman flying into Katmai for Kings and Reds. He edits all the other people out as if he's all alone out there. I haven't fished Katmai myself but I've floated the Karluk River on Kodiak for Kings. Those summer bears are fat and happy, glutted on salmon. There's almost no danger. They will walk right past you and take over a hole you're fishing, so you pick up your gear and move fifty yards up or downstream. There's a famous clip of a guy sitting in a folding chair on the Karluk and a big brown walks up and sits next to him, like a foot away, just watching the river like the man is. That's the reality of summer bears. People are close to bears (and quite safe) as long as the salmon are running. There are fishing parties coming in all summer and just as close to bears as Treadwell was. Treadwell just edits all those people out. Treadwell's films are a big lie because he wasn't unique at all. As I say above, his stupidity was in going in after the salmon were gone. They are a completely different animal when their bellies are empty.
Yeah, a man and his wife were visiting a chimp in a sanctuary they had raised. Another chimp attacks him there, bites off his fingers. Literally pulls off his entire genitalia. They know it's important. They're dangerous as hell.
That part isn't funny, but everything that happens before it is. Like the moment where he smells the bears poop and can tell what bear it is, or when he cries over the bee dying.
Many of the circumstances like his girlfriend being there and the bears getting put down are tragic and could sour it for some, but the core underpinning of a dude going out to "understand the bears" and getting eaten is hilarious
About 40 years ago , I live in Perth Western Australia, I guy committed suicide by jumping in with the polar bears. That’s grizzly. They tore him apart in front of onlookers. The crocodile nearly ate the lawnmower man too.
He said he would live and die to protect these animals from the idea that there are more than what we fear I've heard the audio of him passing and if you don't have a weapon you should fear them
That's fake audio, but there is a video on here that's real and it's horrifying. A young girl in Russia calls her mother while getting eaten alive by a bear.
I mean, I'll have to side with Rogan here. When you decide you're going to camp with bears, you gotta be a little bit aware of the risks. At least a little bit.
I am so sorry for Timothy. . People like Joe Rogan and others criticizing him are the very reason why normal loving human beings choose to be eaten alive rather than live. The level of indifference in human society for different misfits is just sad. I wish he would have had some loving souls around him to turn his life around. Shame on people analyzing his death and troubles.

I read that the bear that killed him wasn't from that area.

Being ripped apart alive by a Bear is probably the most horrible way to die by a land animal.
Chimps are worse
Check out the lady who was ripped apart by a chimp. She lived, but that's gotta be pretty brutal way to go as well.
@@brianchapman8531agreed I’d rather get attacked by a bear than a chimp
@@harambe7430Bear is better bc your not going to survive
Yeah, a man and his wife were visiting a chimp in a sanctuary they had raised. Another chimp attacks him there, bites off his fingers. Literally pulls off his entire genitalia. They know it's important. They're dangerous as hell.
Get the frying pan😂😂😂
I wouldn't call a brutal death by a grizzly comedy, unintentional or otherwise.
No, the poor bear was shot which was very sad
That part isn't funny, but everything that happens before it is. Like the moment where he smells the bears poop and can tell what bear it is, or when he cries over the bee dying.
Comedic gold
Exactly my thoughts not funny at all
Many of the circumstances like his girlfriend being there and the bears getting put down are tragic and could sour it for some, but the core underpinning of a dude going out to "understand the bears" and getting eaten is hilarious
His last words were GET THE FRYING PAN AAAGHHHHHH!!!!! 😂😅
“I’ll never forget watching it in NYC…”
There’s a lot of disconnection and malunderstanding in that statement.
Anyone remember Shaun Ellis?
He's f**king crazy too.
The wolf guy?
Best bit was, when he had a melt down chasing the hat stealing fox
About 40 years ago , I live in Perth Western Australia, I guy committed suicide by jumping in with the polar bears. That’s grizzly. They tore him apart in front of onlookers. The crocodile nearly ate the lawnmower man too.
Wtf there aren’t news on it
I live around the small bears and they're still dangerous.
Hell raccoons can be dangerous. Many people do not grasp how dangerous wild animals can be. Give them their space.
@@mikepalmer1971 Amen to that brethren.
@@mikepalmer1971 Please use commas. A 'hell raccoon' sounds like a secret enemy in a video game. 🤣
@@piggypoo🤣😂😂
Did you really watermark someone else’s content?! Really? 😂
Most people don't know this but he was bipolar and the only time he felt being alive was being next to them
Ironically, the only time he felt dead was next to them too.
@@Accurize2😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think everyone knows he was a couple cans short of a 6 pack
Until he didn't.
Bipolar bears live way up north and are white.
The great Richard Thompson did the amazing sound track for the film.
I will never forget the foxes
He said he would live and die to protect these animals from the idea that there are more than what we fear I've heard the audio of him passing and if you don't have a weapon you should fear them
It's fake the real audio is not available

I recommend listening to Ron White’s bit about Grizzly Man.
Big male griz ate neighbors whole dog team Talkeetna Alaska .Then got two Rottweilers.ate dogs three years in a row before he got it.
Who tried that, i agree joe
Grin and bear it!
Love your show Joe.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought it was unintentional comedy.
Saddest part about the movie is that Treadwell also got his girlfriend killed because of his own foolishness.
I mean, I'll have to side with Rogan here. When you decide you're going to camp with bears, you gotta be a little bit aware of the risks. At least a little bit.
Did he put her in cuffs are force her to go?
After dying by bear, he wakes up in a Hell... of bears.
Grizzly Man a comedy ?
WTF JR?
Nothing funny about anybody being ripped apart by a bear sorry joe
It's a snuff film and a freakshow. Funny, I guess, but I didn't feel good about the experience
listen to Opie and Ant making fun of this dude with Norton. Its all time funny O and A clip. Shaner is Gay.

To be clear, he only spent a few weeks out of each year out there, not constantly. Still a whacko, though. ❤
