Pack your bags, football fans! OutKick is sending one lucky winner and a friend to Athens for Georgia vs. Alabama. Travel\u2019s on us, VIP tickets in hand, and bragging rights for life. Enter Now!<\/a><\/p>\nThat’s about as scary as it gets when it comes to a random interaction in the wild. That bear wasn’t slowing down for anything, and would have absolutely destroyed anything in its way.<\/p>\n
People in the comments also had plenty to say:<\/p>\n
absolutely no one moved fast enough for me except the bearThe sheer amount of fear to see a bear charging towards methose poor mountain goats running for their life \ud83d\ude2dBear has a lot of options when it gives up on the goatsDude this is probably some of the most insane national park footage ever. I\u2019ll be waiting to see it on the newsThe amount of laundry those people will need to do after thisOnce again, not hiking has saved my life \ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23People should watch this to understand how fast grizzly bears are<\/p>\n
The reality of the situation is it’s a borderline miracle the people were able to get out of the way without the bear changing its target.<\/p>\n
Many will suggest carrying bear spray. It’s better than throwing rocks. Personally, when I have to go out into the wild, I bring a firearm. Bear spray is okay. Bullets are lethal.<\/p>\n
Make your choice wisely.<\/p>\n
