    didn't watch, but in boy scouts they always told us..

    black bear: play dead

    grizzly bear: climb a tree, really high

    no chance in really outrunning a bear, i know the grizzly has been clocked up to 30mph in short spurts.

    it's not like fighting off a mountain lion or shark either where they say fight back, especially with grizzly. too big


    though this was always my approach.

    Why in the world would you want to surprise a bear?

    Worst thing you can do is sneak up on a bear. If hiking in bear country, make a lot of noise.

    I once watched a youtube video of a woman being attacked by a bear, so this really hits home for me.

    I sincerely thought you meant "Another Brother attack" and your name was Zimmerman. :eek:
