  1. Always keep dirty harry on you in bear country

  2. I am grateful they survived. Alone, one might be dead. So many , 4, caused the bear to have to distribute its attacks is my guess.

  3. Kendell is a hero, most ppl wouldn't have the balls to help a friend being attacked by a grizzly bear without a weapon

  4. A good reason to carry a full size with a 15 round mag….

  5. That's why I keep my but out of the wilderness. I dont blame the bear at all…it's protecting it's turf. You guys are lucky he didn't finish you guys off.

  6. @1:42…"breath stank" 😁 Thank God the boys escaped alive.

  7. Well the bears were just exercising Their second amendment , If someone infringe on your property than you have every right to Defend it . I hope the bear is alright , must’ve been such a traumatising encounter.

  8. glad they're ok. the bear spared their life

  9. I hope you heal quickly. This is just another reminder that Wildlife is nothing to be screw with.

  10. Thank God they survived and were there for each other. What are they going to do about these bear attacks?

  11. Saying others wouldn’t have handled as good just shows you how cocky they are. F these dudes! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  12. Always a good idea to have a sidearm.

  13. Didn't y'all have guns ????

  14. I have a male newfoundland dog, that's strong as h_ll, so I can't even imagine what a grizzly bear is like….

  15. Proud✌🏽❀

  16. He lucky the bear didn't chew his whole face up

  17. I'm glad there ok good thing it was a baby bear

  18. Really glad they survived.

  19. Dang…
    quite deep in the sticks
    to meet paws and jaws.
    They call in that medivac?
    Was always on my mind
    the few times
    I was out there goin' up Boulder Creek
    Always lookin' this way and that way…
    Can't imagine what kick in in moments like that…
    Ya know…did He say he pulled his hair?
    who's he…the bear?
    Did the bear split after the Full Nelson and the pin or what?
    Tough as nails…out there…
    Thank God yer OK…

  20. DUMB. MOTHER. AND TRASH πŸ—‘οΈ FATHER πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸ½

  21. You come near their young & they will attack.

  22. That's Karma , stop hunting for sport.

  23. Lucky, but, Quick-to-react, Team-Mates, and two Gnawed + Clawed Heroes! We, Humans Stand, on two-legs; Bears ONLY do THAT, to 'Challenge' one another. Hence, at this point in the Season, that Bear was feeling a bit 'triggered'. I'm glad the lads got out, intact (mostly) and have medical care now. It could've been, Much Worse! Godspeed on Healing up!

  24. At least they have a nice story to go with it. "Whose the toughest opponent you've ever wrestled?" "Well there was this bear…"

  25. never go far away from camp sites or way out in the wilderness with out being armed. glad he will be ok.

  26. Don't poke the bear 🐻

    A good campfire story you boys have there ,I wish you a speedy recovery πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

  27. Every. Wrestling. Team. Has a curse or something. There is always crazy trauma that lands on two. Public or private. It’s crazy

  28. Wow… hoping you recover soon. Stay close to each other. You have a friendship that will never end… so glad it wasn't worse. β™₯

  29. πŸ™πŸΌπŸ•ŠοΈπŸŒΏπŸ•―οΈ

  30. The bravery of Cummings is respectable and admirable.

  31. No firearms, or even bear spray not too smart going into grizzly country.

  32. Why anyone would want to live in those hick mountain towns is past beyond me gz lol

  33. Stop killing animals. Allow all majestic, beautiful creatures to live in peace in their own habitat. I’m glad the bear is ok.

  34. Get well soon my friends 😊😊

  35. Yall hunting without weapons?

  36. They must be related to Khabib.

  37. Thank God there's some tough boys out there thank God for your guys you got to be hard to be able to

  38. Bro, they just took the definition of "Ride or Die Friends" to an entirely different level 😯

  39. Those kids are bulldog they weren’t going to lose that fight even if it was a Bear

  40. Wish you guys a speedy recovery. πŸ™

  41. Wow NBC didn't call them out for being in the grizzlies home!?!?

  42. Those men will definitely have a long lifetime list of women Definitely alpha males

  43. what else to expect in in the wild. What luck they have to be alive
