Knew what it was before I even clicked. It's an old story (2012) and the badass old dude looks pretty decent now all things considered.

Did he just let the bear eat his face while he pulled out the gun?? Why he stop the snow scooter?

Between that dude and Kyle Carpenter, plastic surgeons are miracle workers!

Yeah I’ve seen this before. Fuck!
He obviously had a really good surgeon. |
|
OP, do you have a link for story? Just want to see which incident this is.
We medevac'd a fire chief from an island in SEAK one year who had his face torn off by a bear. The call into our command center was pretty chilling as was the helo ride trying to keep the dudes face attached to his skull. |
|
I gotta be honest. If I reached up and felt a bloody gaping hole where my face used to be, I'd be strongly tempted to finish the job with my pistol.
|
|
I thought it was fake at first.
Goolish AF. Don't click if you spook easily. |

Looks pretty normal now. |

Benelli M4 with slugs or AR in 458 SOCOM ?
Asking for my next visit to bear country. |

What happened ?
He must have approached the bear because his ride is stopped ? |

Quoted: Wow . . . hard to imagine how the guy even lived. View Quote In GD once upon a time, people said the "9mm is good enough at enough things, and handguns suck at killing people anyway, so the G19 with its capacity is fine" That's true. 9mm is fine for people. Over time that morphed into, "The G19 is the best at EVERYTHING, and is even suitable for big bear defense Sure a 1000lb grizzley is twice the size of african lion, but a 9mm that's "a marginal fightstopper" on 200lb fleshy humans, is now awesome on something 5x the size with claws, teeth, fur, and fat. ...did you know that old guide once peppered a bear and it walked off and died later? Choosing not to continue the attack? That means 9mims is great." Yeah fuck off with that nonsense. It all revolves around My Perfect Bear AttackTM Where the bear sees you, waves, and lets you do an El Presidente drill, and the bear changes his mind, runs off and bleeds out. Which is pretty much identical to a home-invasion where the homeowner uses birdshot, the guy runs away and bleeds out. The tacticool crowd are often the fudds of the outdoors. The talking points shouldn't be about capacity, expansion, and gel tests - on big stuff, It's about meplat, energy, and heavy hardcast rounds. |

Very shocking that amount of damage and he survived and his face was put back together considerably. Good Lord I didn't realize how gruesome a bear attack could be!
|
|
It would have been better for everybody if that bear had hit the snooze button that day.
Wonder why he was up and at it, with all that snow still on the ground? |
