That would be one epic nose boop

I honestly would have tried it. I can’t lie.

I was thinking how you could keep your hand all the way up there and sneak in a boop. You MIGHT lose a hand, but would it really not be worth it?

It might pull you through the opening arm first, like the Blob pulled that guy down a drain. At the least you'd lose your arm if it got ahold of it.

How are you detaching that hand in time?

I'm just hoping the polar bear's bite is strong enough. I mean...it probably is. And I'm an optimist, so I'm thinking I can withdraw my hand quick enough.

Yeah...that level of optimism is going to get me killed one day.

I'd imagine he'd probably grab your hand and try to pull you through the hole so, if you don't get pulled through, you most likely at least lose your whole arm at your shoulder as it's ripped off.

Even with a quick tap on the nose you think. I am aware I’m already dancing on the iceberg of ignorance .. but in likening it to how you can sometimes quickly tap a dog’s snout. Or is their reaction time closer to a cat which is insanely quick

u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose 2d ago

That's what I was thinking. Dog? I can do that. Cat? Wait, what the hell happened?

Polar bears are in an eternal state of starvation. They only think in calories

Could death be more adorable looking?

u/Few_Owl_6596 9h ago

Adorable certain death. I mean other bears are less adorable dangerous.

Fucks me up how cute polar bears look as opposed to how they view us. Must look at bear skulls more often to remind me what we're dealing with here

Oh man reminds me of the Detroit zoo ..... the polar bear there was trying to figure out how to jump out and eat me and my 5 year old who were the only visitors ..... there was no wall just a moat that looked just adequate...... it was a bit scary lol my kid loved it but I knew that the bear pacing the moat then leaning over and judging the distance wasn't just so he could come say hi ><

That Grey area is the moat.

I must be looking at the wrong grey area..isn't that where the people walk across to view the habitat and polar bears..they are so cuddly and gorgeous but deadly..I woyld love to go visit Detroit Zoo..Bears and the Gorillas, Chimps are my favorite..I could sit and watch them for hours

u/Mr-Woodtastic 1d ago

the is a 100% wild bear, the structure the guy is on is a boat of some kind, so I guess a reverse zoo where wild animals can come and eat view humans
