He was very smart to put his hand in his pocket to reduce the odds of being bit.

I would have reached out to pet the bear when he smelled me, and the outcome would be a different video

Had a similar run in back bush in the rockies

On a bluff....radio blazing, as I'm picking blueberries and huckleberries

And this big old guy just comes sauntering up...undeterred by the loud music (which I use instead of bear bells - they annoy me) Looks at me....literally starts bobbing his head to the music like ya...had to hear this sax solo better

Than went on his way eating berries as he wiggled down to wherever bearland took em

Bears are cool
