Who's Mr Treadwell Chuck?
Is that the guy's name who was attacked in the last video?

Timothy Treadwell, the idiot in Kenai National Park a few years back who 'communed' with the bears. He made a movie called Grizzly Man in which he'd do some really stupid stuff like petting grizzlies while they were eating. In the end both Treadwell and his girlfriend were eaten. She had started a video camera when they were attacked but failed to remove the lens cap. There's an impressive audio of them screaming while being torn apart. I think it's available online but I'll pass on listening to it, thank you.

Tim Treadwell was also a closeted gerbil rancher. He spoke with a very pronounced lisp and minced around, and always threw in the line “...but I’m not gay”. He filmed his interaction with bears to draw attention to himself and convinced the poor girl who died with him that the bears were harmless. Both of them were literally eaten alive by the bears he professed were harmless.

Oh yeah. Now I remember.
I saw that documentary when it came out years ago.
I'm shaking my head just thinking about those scenes.
They should retitle the movie, "Kids... Don't Try This at Home."

I thought he looked like a flamer too.
Lots of those girlie boys have gfs and wives as beards or because they swing both ways.
Not too many of them are into big teddy bears though. Maybe that should change.

Didn't Anthony Hopkins kill Bart with a wooden spear?

That one spear out of a hundred.......manufactured with single stag-handled folder?

Skinned Bart out for coats, too. He'd have tasted a little better, with gunpowder.

Musta been S30V.
