Thanks to the team at the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center for somehow recovering the camera! And, of course, to the bears.
bro time travelled to the past to reply to this video
Alright gotchu
Cool
Floors are indoors. Outside is the ground.
The bear did go pro with that selfie...... LUL
If it survived over an hour then I think it should get the "Bear Resistant" certification.
Most definitely!
YES!
I would not be surprised if go pro's have actually been certified "bear resistant" before. Those things can survive almost anything
Good point
@@blackwing1362one edit
"'recover' from almost anything".
Surviving is arguable, since the camera didnt do too well in the heat.
"Our cameras can survive 5 hours with bears while covered in honey" is one hell of a statement
I think they'll have to add a "being chewed by a bear" error message before they can truthfully claim that ;-)
I can think of one video industry where that kind of endorsement would be valued! 😀
"But don't use them outside, they overheat"
@@Pitoouuu To be fair they had protective cases added, it could be the case that is the problem. Unfortunately most materials that add a lot of shock resistance per unit thickness eg rubber etc also add a lot of thermal insulation per unit of thickness. That is to say that cases will generally severely hamper the passive cooling of the device.
@@seraphina985 yep, that totally true.
But you can expect that a product made for "extreme" sports at such a price can endure this type of heat, and don't heat too much by itself. I've seen lots of videos complaining about GoPros overheating...
I use a GoPro as a dashcam (without a case), it's really frustrating when it stop recording because of heat (to be fair, charging it while recording doesn't help)
Does this mean we can officially add "bear-proof" to our packaging? 👀
True
hi
You haven't? Go!
Yup
Bear-resistant, but yup!
Lmfao. "Thats public Domain, The bear shot it on its own, I dont own it"
My man, you have showed more compassion for the bear than most people show each other.
i'd assume most people have more compassion for bears than each other, the bear dosent try to be a annoying little mf and does its own thing
Nah, this is in keeping with US rulings on IP as it relates to non-human creators.
??? I don't think the bear cares about copyright.
@@culwin if i was a bear who aspired to become a director/actor, i would absolutely care if some random guy sold my work as his own. that bear's feelings matter
This has nothing to do with compassion, tho?
Tom realizing that he maybe doesn’t have copyright over some of the footage is the most Tom Scott thing ever.
The hilarious thing is that he does actually have the copyright based on lawsuits between PETA (iirc) and the photographer who's camera a monkey took a selfie with.
@@xander1052 doesnt** that court case determined that works produced by animals are public domain lmao, he cant have copyright over it
@@xander1052 No, actually, I don't think so. PETA lost, sure, but PETA was trying to argue that it belonged to the monkey and that the monkey had to be asked for permission to use it.
I believe the court ruled that it didn't belong to either the monkey *or* the photographer, being public domain as animals aren't allowed to own things, so the photographer was within their right to use it, though couldn't claim copyright over it.
Surely the footage should belong to whoever owns/leases the camera. If the mechanism was faulty and the camera recorded video on its own, you should still own the video. Mechanical fault and random animal behavior should both qualify as "Act of God" and should not affect copyright.
@@ThreadBomb*God owns our copyright*
I'm sure the GoPro company is absolutely stoked about how well their product held up here. This video is a killer ad for them.
Hopefully they replace the screen or send a new unit as a goodwill gesture, I’d say that’s a fair payout for Tom proving their cameras are literally bear resistant
The company should definitely send him some free replacements.
Yes, they should also donate to Grizzly & Wolf
not quite their overheating issues is the reason i bought a dji osmo, never overheated once.
@@nunayobusiness7521but did it survive a bear?
It's great to see that the public domain video is already on Wikipedia's "Animal-made art" page
On another positive spin on this, is that the GoPro team have validated their camera casing to be Bear proof and water resistant at the same time. On behalf of the team, thank you Tom for using the product
*bear resistant
@@Nikolai0169 And water proof.
Really impressed with how the GoPro performed, tbh. I knew those things are hardy, but I'd expect a bear chomping on it to be game over.
I'm surprised the GoPro could bear that much distress
🤦♂😂
To err is human; to outlast, ursine
Normally I'd find puns unbearable, but I'm sure you could go pro as a comedian.
This little sub-thread is comedy GOLD!!! 😅😅😅
Yes, their durability has been laid bear.
That ending realization that those last files are public domain… Absolutely amazing
I don't think so. The bear is the author and holds copyright. Might want to take Tom to bear copyright court, but I doubt it.
@@StrokeMahEgolegal precedent is set that non-humans can't own copyright (and media they create is public domain)
@@StrokeMahEgo check out the similar “monkey selfie copyright dispute” - precedent for this exact scenario is that the bear doesn’t get copyright
@patcat1276 - r/whoosh
@@patcat1276 exactly, but Tom saying it so plainly that those moments of footage are NOT his copyright? those small things are why i respect him so much.
So glad I'm alive in just the right time period to see a bear vlogging
its kinda horrible in a way.....
Blogging! Oh wait no
Bvlogging... too many consonants
Belfies? Bear selfies?
Movears? (pr ≈ movies) Moving Bears?
Moving Bear Video? Moberdios?
Bear Instagram? Claw'n'sm'Graham?
Or to be inclusive to more animals - Furdeos? Furvies?
I love Tom Scott. He’s a realistic optimist. Case in point: he excitedly talked abt the fact that he didn’t have copyright over the videos, while acknowledging that it was “frustrating bc he could’ve made a lot of money licensing it.” Brilliant.
Uploading the files to the public domain and asking for donation to the Grizzly Discovery Center is the most honest and wholesome thing I've heard this month (at least). Kudos to you Tom for being based
The video was legally in the public domain regardless if he wanted it to be. He didn't record it and animals don't have authorship rights.
He didn’t want to get SLAPP’d by PETA, like the wildlife photographer who got the monkey selfie.
@@ryanthompson3737 It still says a lot about him that he clearly stated that and made the raw footage available to everyone. He wasn't required to do so but still did
That's the Tom Scott we know and love
This makes me happy ! Brilliant idea… the bears are getting some credit
Two years later this bear is gonna be the director of an insanely successful film and refer to this as its humble origins
That's one way to get around union disputes...
"This Oscar isn't just for me; it is for all the little people... who I ate along the way." 🐻

@@timothymcleanDirector bear is a great negotiator. Must be that disarming smile.
@@Simon-hb9rf If only Hugh Glass hadn't smeared himself with peanut butter and honey! 😱🐻
Those clips are actually terrifying. I choose to interpret them as a "bear made" reminder to stay the f*** away from bears. Thanks for uploading this, Tom!!
Yup, in a "if you don't want this to be the LAST thing you ever see, stay away from BEARS!" sense. I'm suddenly really glad I live in the UK, where all the bears are safely under control...

@@andrewcarson5850LMAOOOOO
You were 100% correct Tom, this ABSOLUTELY deserved a separate video
This video makes a much stronger case for buying a GoPro than actual GoPro advertisements.
Too much overheating tbh :D
@@rkan2it is a major problem for electronics like phones and cameras. or well, any mobile camera.
@@rkan2 Can't survive 20 minutes of sunlight but can survive a grizzly bear's curiosity.
I got a new hero 7 from them and it never worked properly. Got an Insta360 cam instead and it’s been fine. For such a well known brand they don’t make very good products :/
@@rkan2 It is called thermal protection, they switch off for a while if you use them in inappropriate conditions.
That public domain part is exactly the example of how to handle that sort of thing that the internet needed. Well done, Tom!
Did you know about the Wikipedia foundation lawsuit to use the monkey selfie as public domain? Because Tom's only following legal precedent.
Robby is correct, it's legally defined as public domain because the bear to the camera and activated it while the camera was in it's possession. that means no other entity is responsible for the actions leading to the creation of the work and the bear is deemed indigent and therefore cannot manage the financial responsibility of negotiating the assets accrued through the work. so as the bear is a "sovereign citizen" under §118-14c of the united states commercial code, no right to commercial gain is owed to anyone, but it's access to the work is not a guaranteed right.
therefore I was traveling, not driving. and I'm not subject to your laws. by the way, I made up everything after "assets accrued" 😂
@@RobbyVanArsdale He may be "only" following legal precedent but he doesn't have to release the video raw file and make it easily accessible, yet he is. Is he doing a life changing good thing? No, but its still a good act that doesn't need to be minimized.
@@RobbyVanArsdaleHe didn't have to say anything and he didn't have to upload it somewhere that people could easily access the footage. He set a good example by choosing to do those things.
Absolutely, this might actually set and enforce the legal precedent
Tom making the video public domain since the bear was the one vlogging is a level of compassion and commitment I wasn’t expecting, bravo
I like to think the bears knew you were about to take a well deserved break and decided to give you a parting gift. Magical footage.
It’s not every day that I get a camera eaten by a bear delivered in the mail. Seeing those claws, I’m never going into nature again.
What Tom cut out of this video was my shouts of surprise when the computer read the memory card just fine and then again when I saw the actual bears in the footage and then again when the camera actually turned on after recharging. Thanks Tom for trusting me to help with this project!
W
Love you for helping him with this video
Like botter.
Great to see the collab and you finishing a 1 piece SD-card sized puzzle for Tom.
I’m sure he could think of no-one more qualified to put the pieces together
the fact that you flat out relinquished the rights to that video as it was "shot by bear" just further confirms how cool dude you are
The only thing to be careful of now is that now that it's in the public domain, others don't take freeze frames and copyright those frames to demand royalties of anyone who tries to use them. One company did just that when the creator declared their works to be in the public domain and thus sued people for copyright infringement. When the creator then sued said company as they'd released their works to the public domain, the court sided with the company who had made the still copies, saying that they now own the rights, and ordered the original creator to pay said company's legal fees.
@@dragontoothless4351i mean this guy has a video of it
@@dragontoothless4351 what the hell
@@gus3000spam I believe that is part of the reason Creative Commons exists as a thing at all, so that there is a kind of public domain protection that is positively protected by law rather than just not really covered by it and therefore open.
@@dragontoothless4351seriously? On what legal grounds could they claim something already public, not made by them, to be theirs? I can’t just claim copyright of a section of Mozart’s symphonies, so how did that work?
It never fails to surprise me how incredibly resistant GoPros are, it's actually insane how durable these oittle cameras are
Can't believe we're in the era of Bear Cinematography. Awesome to hear the footage is in the public domain, thanks for doing that Tom!
I believe Tom on “bear is not friend” - however, after viewing the footage, I can confidently confirm that bear is very much friend shaped😌
sadly friend shaped != friend :(
if danger why big and fluufy,,,
friend shaped but with danger spikes. bear ≈ hedgehog.
The famed danger friend
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Isn't a hedgehog's spines more defence rather than offence like the bears claws?
@@CDCHexaku Unfortunately nature really likes making friend shaped danger critters. The blue ringed octopus is adorable, but its bite is toxic and earns the "it will hurt the whole time you're dying" stamp.
Fortunately, humans invented plushies :3
Seeing you release the footage as public domain instead of trying to keep it was very nice to see. In honor of your integrity, I made a $25 donation to the Grizzley Discovery Center. Thanks for all the years of hard work, integrity, and entertainment you've provided us.
In fairness tho, Tom didn’t really “release” the footage. The footage was always within the public domain, since it was taken by the bears.
(If you want to learn more, and you want a good laugh, google “Monkey selfie copyright dispute”)
@@user-ob5hj5vn8c Tom did release the footage. He chose to upload it to the Internet archive for fair use; he didn't have to do that.
@@TheRealSkeletor Fair use doesn't matter here since it's already automatically in the public domain. US courts have already ruled that works of art produced by animals are automatically public domain. You can use the video for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial, without any attribution.
@@KoruGo You're right, I meant public domain, not fair use. But my point still stands, Tom wasn't legally required to upload the footage to make it publicly available; he chose to do that.
@@KoruGoi think he still gets props for releasing the raw file, which he wasn't obligated to do
That footage is both amazing and terrifying. You inadvertently created the Bear Witch Project.
Groaaaannnnnn!!! (which is high praise for puns, of course)
I wonder if the bears are still wondering where their new toy is! That was clearly fun enough for bears to come back to it a few times, I wonder what kind of joy they were finding in it.
I assume they just think there's food inside
Only Tom Scott would come across a once-in-a-lifetime footage and make it public domain.
It was public domain anyway. Art created by animals is considered public domain since they can't claim it in any way that matters.
@@walugusgrudenburg3068 Public domain means there is no copyright protecting the footage, it doesn't mean the holder is required to provide public access. Tom could have just left the file on the memory card, or deleted it. He couldn't sue you if you used the footage in your own work, but he can actively deny you access to the raw files.
It was good of Tom to upload it somewhere so anyone can use it.
@@ThePensiveWalrus 👏
@@ThePensiveWalrusWhat is he gonna do with the footage anyway? Like releasing it (and making video about it) is the optimal thing he can do to get the most out of the footage already.
I can't BELIEVE the take away of this video is that the bear selfies are all technically public domain 😭😭😭
The bear-cracked GoPro could probably be auctioned off to support the center as well! With the video footage being (rightfully) public domain, that could be a neat piece of history :)
Good idea!
I appreciate that you turned this over to public domain. Inspired by another commenter, I made a $25 donation to the Center. Your integrity is what the free internet needs right now.
That's amazing they found the camera and sent it to you.

Very decent of them, thank goodness they did!
o7
I can’t believe the bears mailed the GoPro personally
@@solicoliThey did it with their bear hands!
@ObsidianAnt, when will bears be in the next space exploration game? :)
Nobody else would be selfless enough to make honestly admit the bear footage is probably public domain. your a good egg tom and i appreciate your honestly
The footage was taken in the US, photos and video taken by animals being public domain is settled copyright law here
I think it probably oughtn’t be public domain by default, regardless of what US/UK law says. If the wind blows over a tree branch that knocks the camera shutter and turns it on, ought the photo be public domain? I don’t think so.
Regardless, it’s a cool move by Tom. (And smart to avoid having to protect his copyright from Wikipedia, which has a predilection for animal selfies).
Brings a whole new meaning to the "found footage " genre.
Someone needs to make that bear an IMDB page for his excellent camera work and self appearance in a youtube documentary.
This is truly AMAZING footage. Every bear fan is going to be so grateful to you Tom. The bears get director & actor credits. The sanctuary gets location credits & the gent who gave you permission gets executive producer credits. You get producer credit, hands down. If you hadn't asked to put a go-pro in a trash can that a bear would then be encouraged to demolish, the world would never have such cool footage.
I hope the go-pro case maker uses the footage in some advertising and makes a HEFTY donation to the center.

I love that this video wasn't just a 'part 2'. It had it's own 'Tom Scott' story line with a societal-technological twist at the end.
The amount of plot twists in this video is peak Tom Scott. I guess it figures when they say cameramen don't die
This bear absolutely knew about the GoPro overheating issues, hence dropping it in the pond 😂

So nice to see bigger channels giving credit to up-and-coming creators 😊

Wow! That's awesome of you to recognize that copyright issue!
GoPro should use some of the footage in an ad, and donate to the Bears. They did more proving the sturdiness of GoPros in their short selfies, than scientists running trials in the lab! 💚🐻
I didn't know today was the day I'd see what my view would be if I cuddled a grizzly bear, but always good to be reminded not all bears are gentle ben 🤣 Also, I'm so happy you're friends with Karen Puzzles! Has there been a collab that I've missed?

He can't sell it. It's public domain.
@the360mlgnoscoper Sell the actual GoPro then? The story probably increased the value of it, almost like a mantal piece for the company.

You‘re a gift, Tom. And a crossover of sorts with Karen, what an unexpected delight!
I love that you consider the last two shots as being from the bears themselves.
Footage licensing fee: 1 pound of peanut butter 🐻
There was a case some years ago about a photographer who had his camera stolen by a monkey. And the monkey took a picture of itself. The photographer later found his camera and discovered the selfie. Some animal rights organization sued the photographer for the picture, claiming that it was the monkey that owned the rights to it, and that the photographer couldn't sell the picture. And I believe a lot of money was wasted in the courtrooms.
So I think Tom just took the easy way out, in order not to get sued.
@@Tjalve70 If I'm not mistaken, that case is exactly why these ARE considered public domain - the courts ruled that the photographer couldn't hold copyright over the work as he hadn't created it, but also that non-sentient animals couldn't hold copyright either and hence, any footage or photography captured by animals on their own initiative necessarily enters the public domain.
@@Tjalve70 it was PETA that brought the lawsuit and actually they didn't say he couldn't sell the picture only that PETA should get all the money on the monkeys behalf. the judge even admonished the organisation saying PETA's motivations had been to promote their own interests rather than to protect the legal rights of animals.
@@Simon-hb9rf I believed it was PETA, but I wasn't sure. I did remember that they demanded the money for the pic, but I didn't remember too many details, so I didn't say anything about that.
this feels like the cautionary tale of what happens if you leave food in your tent and not properly in a bear can in a tree.
Or your car
As a Canadian who lives close to a bear-frequented national park, Tom is absolutely not kidding about the danger of bears. They are intelligent and lethal creatures that are worthy of respect and admiration from a distance. The amount of unwitting tourists I've seen try and get close to wildlife is staggering.
I love that you did what you thought the best and released the videos under the public domain. More people need to be like Tom.
As a bear, i can confirm i took a selfie using a GoPro.
To bad there cameras actually suck
Needless to say, GoPro cameras will now receive an official "bear-proof" seal, if they didn't already have it!
but... did it get that 1hr threat-ment tho...
@@PrograError It got many more hours of treatment
They didn't put peanut butter and honey inside the GoPro, that would be the test.
That is a very honorable way to handle this footage Tom. Respect!
Man I am gonna miss you Tom after these next few months are over. Greatest integrity on RUclips while making educational videos. Hopefully there is a video upcoming recommending someone similar to you, but they just need a boost in subscribers to help carry them to your level!
I don’t know what I’m going to do with my Mondays at 4 once these videos stop
Obviously start rewatching the series?
Now I was never under the impression that I would like to be stuck in a trashcan that's being attacked by a bear but I didn't expect to have such a visceral fear response to the POV of it happening
Love the sharing of the footage in aid of the good cause... this is what the internet should be! Thanks Tom!
Cool discovery! Thanks for sharing the bear's vlog attempts! And thanks to Karen for showing us the camera remains. Hooray for bears and youtuber friends!
I hope whoever repairs GoPros has a box where you describe how the damage happened. There would be some cool stories there, but "Screen cracked after being mauled by at least one bear" must be among the best
not "mauled". Being gently nommed-on. XD
But yes, that surely is a stand.out story.
"At least one" is perfect lmao
This video is probably the best unpaid GoPro ad the company could have asked for
It's great that you put the videos in the public domain for others to use, you could have easily claimed they were yours. This is why so many people have lots of respect for you! Great video as always, thank you.
I was anticipating the thing about public domain at the end as soon as I saw the video title. Very on brand for you Tom, and there is precedence for it already too.
It's funny how often Tom Scott videos could functionally serve as GoPro ads. He puts those cameras through a lot of exotic situations against which they hold up surprisingly well.

@@Jake-zk3eb the conclusion of the monkey selfie case was that animal selfies are not copyrightable by anyone, so they can be posted in the public domain (e.g. in that case, on Wikimedia).

Those claws! Thank you Tom for making this video and for making those last bear shots public domain. That means no one else has to try this. Also very glad to hear that no bears were harmed in the making of this video. All that plastic and electronics didn't feel safe. I guess it goes to show just how dangerous these animals are.

What a great follow up! And thank you for giving us the feeling of being licked by a bear without actually doing it.
It was unexpectedly very nice to see what it's like to get a kiss by a bear.
I love how excited Tom is over all this footage. He’s geeking out just as much as anyone else would.
I'm getting real strong whiffs of an analogy to the monkey selfie dispute at the end when it comes to copyright of the footage lul
Fantastic video on how that footage came to be

I've dabbled with some of your other content, several of your game shows, I believe I watched you fall through the ice while exploring in a former Soviet block nation.
Tom, it is videos like this that make you a very special RUclipsr. Your work should be archived as being meaningful for humanity.
This is the best accidental GoPro ad they could possibly wish for! Such amazing footage, and the camera survived it all! Unbelieveable.
It's nuts how bears half the time act like oversized puppies and the other half like you just stepped on one of its cubs!
What a stand up chap you are Scott, i mean everyone knew that already, but putting the Bear Witness Action Cam footage online for free is a real top move!👍
I actually had a brief double take last week when you said you put a camera in the bin, only for it to be mounted on the roof instead. Wasn't expecting this to be the explanation... managed to be spectacular, hilarious, and mildly horrifying all at once
Bears. Cutest predators on earth.
Also, kudos to GoPro manufacturers. That's one durable gadget it is.
"raw unedited grizzly bear selfie footage" is a sentence that is both hilarious and terrifying
I love the gopro at the end: "your gopro turned off last time because it ran out of battery". So humble considering it also survived bears for the last few hours as well.

Good Guy Tom Scott makes sure that the correct artists are always credited for their work, even if it's an accidental bear artist.
I was so happy when the raw footage was uploaded. I was like, oh sweet, finally a RUclipsr didn't say "I have RAW footage, come to my Patreon".
Leave it to Tom to say, "Of course I uploaded it, it's public domain footage shot by the bear, I just found it"
This could an extravagant and elaborate ad for GoPro
It's crazy we have videos like this, before videography and the internet the only people who would have gotten this up close and personal with the mouth of a living Grizzly probably wouldn't be finding it so interesting...
True😂😂😂
That was scary footage. Imagine the last memories of somebody hiding from a bear in a bin? Seeing those craws and teeth?
Always love to see someone new taking up cinematography.
This has to be one of the best unintentional ads ever
This was a great adventure Tom. Thanks for sharing
Awesome that the folks at Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center not only found the camera but shipped it as well! Thank you to them, the bears and Tom for this great follow-up vid.
