When texting while walking becomes beary dangerous

Funny video from LA here  where a black bear was loose in a residential area and an unsuspecting texter almost ran into him! 

 

I am guessing the bear was confined or caught at some point, but I only came across this video clip.   I am sure I would have shet my pants if I were that guy, especially if it happened right outside my house when you least expect it!

  • OMG!  I can't imagine how scary that must have been. I've come face-to-face with a black bear and they are a lot bigger in person than you'd think!

    I watched that show "I Survived" where they guy's face got torn up by a black bear, it was soooooo gruesome and chilling! 

    Were you in the wilderness and stumbled upon one?   How scary!!   I have only seen them at the zoo, and I am sure they are much bigger when you get down next to them.

    They show up at my mom's house quite frequently (she lives in the woods in PA). We had to build a shed to put the garbage cans in or the bears would tear open the bags all the time. They also knocked over the bird feeder at least once a week to eat the seeds.

    One time I called for the dog to come in and he was all huddled by the shed and wouldn't come, so I walked out to get him and-- yup, huuuuuge black bear right around the corner. I think we startled each other equally!

    The wildlife department did come and put a bear trap in our driveway for a few months (they baited it with donuts!) but they never caught any.

    Wow, I think I literally would've crapped my pants! 

    There have been sightings not too far from my house, but I've never personally seen one.
