Ok, granted, it was "just" a black bear, but still, the dude had already been gnawed on.

Oh, sorry about that. I didn't even notice anything inappropriate, I was so amazed at this guy's story.

I heard about this in the fall when it happened. That guy deserves a life-long membership to the man club. The sad part of the story was that there was an animal rights group that was trying to get him changed with killing a bear out of season.

Good for him. I'm still cringing about that poor woman mutilated in the chimp attack.

Last night, my wife and I were walking our dog. All of a sudden we were accosted by a pit bull and a second, larger dog (unsure of breed). I was able to distract them enough until my wife and dog could get to a house and call the police. At one point, I was certain that the pit bull was about to pounce. He was a foot from me, snarling and ready to attack. In that brief moment, I was thinking, "I'm never walking without a weapon again." Fortunately, a car distracted them enough so that I could get to that house and pick up a small fireplace log. I was able to avoid what I was sure was an inevitable attack.

So I'm very impressed with this guy who killed the bear. But I feel so horrible for that poor woman in the chimp attack.

This sounds like a less epic version of a story I told one time..

well regarding the chimp vs. this story:

that lady actually thought it would be a good idea to live with a live animal.

i can't believe an animal rights group would be that dumb. they should go live in the forest for a year.

How did the bear hold the stick? They don't have opposable thumbs, do they...?

If you life is truly in danger from a dog such as a pit bull and you are willing to sacrifice one of your arms, pit bulls are relativity easy to kill. Let him bite onto your forearm (their jaws lock) then get on its back, put your free hand on the back of its head and try ripping your other arm free. They have weak necks so this should break its neck, might take a few tries. Your arm will be messed up, but you will be alive.

You don't get any dogs with lock-jaws (unless they have Tetanus), sure, they can have a heck of a lot of power, but they don't have lock-jaws.

However, what you say is true, break the things neck, or try and stick your boot to it.

Or get on its back and grab its two front paws. The pull them apart as hard as you can. This probably wont work on a pit bull, because of how strong they are, but on most other dogs this will work quite well. It will rip their chest open.

Ya really think that if I was being attacked by a pitbull I would remember all that?!


But, good post. Even if I'm rather attached to my arm.
