I swear, stupidity HAS to be genetic, it just keeps popping up in the strangest of places.

Only other thing I can figure is, the Sierra Club is planning a kayak regatta through there and that guy is getting ready for it.

Wally did seem kind of mellow.... I would not want to be around him if he was not completely full of chicken or whatever his favorite snacks are...`

Play with fire....

Rarely is the operative word. Neither do bears, wolves, lions, tigers, oh my! Or moose, for that matter, yet I have been charged by moose (8-10 times) more times than bears (0 aggresive)) in my 50 years in Alaska. Not counting the times they thought I might be a 4-legged meal and made an approach - the last time to 3 yards.

And yet, I go armed on most of my walkabouts thru bear country, tho I make exception for my yard. I've had to change some things, over the years, to keep the damned things (brown bears) off my deck and out of my pick-up bed. Moose get a pass, other than covering strawberries and flower beds with netting to keep the browsing down.

Try not to feed dangerous wild critters, and one has less "incidents".

Still, that is one cool video. Better him than me, tho.
