Polar Bear Attack!

I've just been sent some pics of a very 'lucky' hunter in Alaska.

Not something I want to post on here, as the pictures of the hunter and the bear are pretty gruesome, but if you are interested, PM me your email and I'll send 'em on!

Why the hell would anyone be remotely interested in something like this? Not a pop at you, but a question in general.

what....in case a polar bear gets lost and appears in you bedroom in tasmania and tries to bite your face off?

Dude.....if you live on a path that polar bears tread, move house!!!!

also, get a bigger gun. a 10mm won't have the stopping power to bring a polar bear down. The .50 might but I'd still want to be running away at the time.

Valid point... however, just take a (vitual) look at some of the people on YD?

I rest my case

I think the noise would scare him off. I fired 5 rounds out of one years ago at the Police Academy indoor range, it scared the living cr_p out of me, 3 hit the target, one in the groin, one in the chest and one through the top of the head. Probably miss anyway but it's big enough that you could beat the average bear into submission with it.

Remind me to tell you what happened when I was 'investigated' by a polar bear once... It was a horrific feeling to suddely realise that you were no longer top of the food chain.
