yeah, that guy was crazy.

You know, they say the jungle gets to people; I think any isolated wild place will eventually drive a person mad, bad or insane. Heart of Darkness stuff.

I heard there was video of the bear attacking him but of course it's never been shown.

I saw video of a 'trained' bear who killed a guy who just wanted his pic taken with the bear---the guy made an unexpected move and the bear looks like he hardly touched him but he killed him. Was v. sad and sorry---the guy was the cousin of the 'bear trainer'-----this particular bear was in a Will Ferrell movie...can't recall the name....
