A woman hiking in Canada nearly became a grizzly’s next meal and the video circulating right now is genuinely one of the most intense wildlife encounters you will ever watch - her dog is with her, a massive grizzly is right there, and somehow she kept her head together long enough for both of them to walk away breathing.
That is not a small thing. Most people talk tough until nature is standing ten feet in front of them and every instinct in your body is screaming to run, and running is exactly the worst thing you can do.
Grizzlies are built to chase, they top out over 700 pounds and can cover ground faster than any human alive. The people who survive these moments are the ones who override pure fear with pure discipline and this woman did exactly that.
If you hike, camp, or spend any real time in the wilderness - bear spray is not optional, it is the difference between a story you tell and one somebody else tells about you.
Could you have kept your cool?
Hats off to her.
@Disney is playing games with everyone! I subscribe to ESPN+ and they are blocking me from using it while they fight with @YouTubeTV . This is disgusting. No way to blackmail people into subscribing!!
@kroger I ordered groceries and a case of beer today on Friday when Kroger gives 4 times fuel points. Can you believe they said I didn’t get 4x the points on my non-alcohol groceries because a small part of my order was alcohol!!! Ignorance is rampant! #CustomerServiceFail
I can’t believe we finally have a casino in Virginia and it allows #smoking throughout the @RiversCasinoVA that’s unbelievable! Looks like Rosies Gaming won’t be losing so much business after all. @ColonialRosies
#dm bought a beautiful @LandRoverUSA disco sport 2 days ago. Too bad nobody in this country know how to setup CarPlay to work on my screen!!!! #frustrated
@LiveKellyRyan yes yes yes!! @KellyRipa I’ve been begging people to start a business setting people up on the beach with umbrellas, coolers etc. Just like you said! We are so right. #beachlife
I wonder what @GovernorVA would do if he had to login to @cvspharmacy 100 times a day every day and strike out over and over filling out forms that take you to a message that we don’t have any vaccines. I’m 71. It’s so much fun 😷
@rjwintl @GovernorVA@VDHgov My daughter lives in Texas where 65+ can get the vaccine now! I’m here in virginia and see no sign that we will get to 1c for 65+ any time soon. Why can’t we get it done faster? Just send it to the drug stores. @GovernorVA
