Good God this guy is a real man.

"I threw about five rocks at the bear to keep him away," Kyle Everhart said.

Realizing his sons could be killed, Everhart grabbed a log and threw it at the bear's head, striking and killing him.

"I forgot all about pots and pans and picked up whatever I could to try to distract, fend off, do what I could to get this bear away," Everhart said.

[Comazon]

I heard about this a while ago. That must have been a pretty sweet throw.

[Zugzwang]

But teh wittle bear was led to the campsite by reckless humunz who weft ther foood waying owt!

That was pretty sweet, though.

[4letterwords]

Didn't some guy kill a bear that had entered the guys house while his kids were there, and then he got in trouble from PETA for killing a wild animal?

Odds are I got a lot of the details wrong. Anybody?

[Pierrot le Fou]

It's this story.

He left his food where a bear could get it, his kids weren't being too bright about it, and so he launched a log at it and killed the bear. The park folk wrote him up for improper storage of food at a campsite.

Wow, those park folk have some pretty big balls to do that.

Man: "Oh, shit, hey guys, um... yeah, I just killed a bear."
Park: "Oh! Are you okay? What happened?"
Man: "Yeah, well, it was coming towards my kids so I just threw a bunch of shit at it. Then I threw a log, hit it in the head, and killed it."
Park: "What was it doing in your site?"
Man: "Getting at some food left lying around."
Park: "Oh. Okay, we're writing you up."
Man: "...But... I.... bear... dead... what?"

[Pierrot le Fou]

I hope you're kidding.

[Myrsilus]

His fault for leaving food out like that. When you camp out in bear territories, you better damn well respect them. Don't approach a sow with her cubs, don't run from a pissed off bear, and don't leave food out around your damn camp.

[Buckwheat]

So he hit a hungry bear in the head with a stick. Not a big deal

This guy killed a rabid bobcat with his bare hands.

Of course that's nothing compared to that old farmer in Africa who was attacked by a leopard and ripped it's tongue out.

Whoa, that guy threw down his machete and decided to use his bare hands because the voice of God told him to. :boggled:

[雨]

I want his God, NOW.

[Pierrot le Fou]

Sorry, this man (http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,21235793-5006009,00.html) clearly wins the competition.

Not only did he do it, but he did it because he was drunk, and it was entirely voluntary. No self-defense. No 'saving my kids' excuse. Just "Well, I was pretty drunk..."

[Eddie Echoplex]

He's still a tough bastard, no matter what PETA says.

[Ceirnian]

I like how on SRK this story (along with the cougar story) exploded with applause, here people are trying to one up each other and pretending that killing a bear in one shot with a log isn't a big deal.

Killing a leopard by pulling it's tongue makes killing a bear with a log or wrestling a small shark something any drunken ex-marine could do!

[Radiance]

These men are nothing, my great uncle used to hold the record for both largest bear killed and largest moose killed. He would regularly have a helicopter drop him off in the middle of the Canadian outback with nothing but a knife and a few weeks later walked out of the forrest with a bear pelt on his back and a rack of antlers over his shoulder. I think someone eventually took the records from him, but he held them for a very long time. There is much more to him like speaking 7 languages and being a high ranking official in UN special ops. Coolest guy you could ever meet, too bad he is getting too old for that kinda stuff. :/

Good God, that deserves a signature spot!

Okay, when your kids are threatened, you have to fight. When a cougar is going to eat you, you have to fight. When you're drunk and wading in the ocean, tackling a shark for absolutely no reason is tougher than nails.

And anyone who disagrees with me will have to wrestle a shark.

[RandomPasserby]

I'm not "wrestling" your "shark", PLF. It was a small shark (even japs are taller than it was long!). Life threatening sharks are usually quite a bit bigger. It was Jaws he wrestled with, I would agree with you but same size leopard is more dangerous to be messing with.

[Buckwheat]

Besides the guy PUT DOWN his weapon to kill it bare handed.

[stsparky]

Man versus Bear (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IiwZE9ReE4) - pshaw.

I admire the 72 year old marine who beat up a thief that was on ABC's i-caught last week.

[Comazon]

That doesn't make him any tougher in my opinion.

Foolish? Maybe...

[Yang]

what a manly man....i wish to have the power to kill a bear with my own hands...

Actually, the type of shark he wrestled does attack people, and is vicious. Plus we're talking about fighting a shark in water. I mean, c'mon! On land we're all in our native habitat. This guy was drunk, in the water, wrestling a shark, AND HE WON!

I agree, I mean fighting a shark in water is like dropping in on hell to punch out satan...

[Pierrot le Fou]

Yeah, it was a Bronze Whaler Shark (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_shark) too:
The bronze whaler is a large and aggressive shark that should be considered very dangerous - it has attacked people, but it has not been confirmed in any fatal attacks on humans.
Large aggressive shark that attacks humans -- that drunk sure showed it! TAKE THAT!

(although it's status is near-threatened, which I guess is a bad thing)

Yeah but it was shallows and the shark wasn't 3.5 meters long but only 1.3 meters. It was the same size as most "swim with sharks in aquarium"-sharks. A Bronze whaler hasn't ever killed anyone even. You and Beowulf are talking like it was a Great White in deep water.

[雨]

Although the leopard was injured, I'm going to go with that (in fact, it's more aggressive that way). He fucking pulled its tongue out. Not a lot of people would have gone with that option.

I must admit, he is a bad enough dude to kill an endangered species. Thats pretty manly. "Endangered species?! OSHI... let me give it a hand with the last few!"

So you'd rather attack a shark in the water than toss a log at a bear not attacking you, or a wounded panther when you have a knife?

Are you brave, or just stupid?

[Ceirnian]

I'd rather attack the shark, give me a harpoon and its on.

[Buckwheat]

A shark that isn't already hungry/pissed is more likely to try to run away instead of kill something that tries to attack it.

[RandomPasserby]

No, you are the stupidest one!
Grabbing a small, nonhostile shark by the tail in shallow water is less risky than grabbing an attacking leopard by the tongue. Dunno about Yogi the Paperskull Bear though.

[ミュー]

When did killing some damn wild beast become a crime? Where I come from (the souf, america) killin' is both a pastime and a rite of passage.

[Fred]

Leopards, bears, sharks…That’s nothing.

Once, I ran over a chicken with my car. (Ok. It was an accident. But still, we are talking about a domesticated foul!)
