Marube, a student at the University of Maine at Farmington who finished third in the 2012 Maine Marathon and won the 2013 half-marathon, said he'd once encountered a leopard perched in a tree while alone in Africa — but the bears were scarier.

How can anyone say anything but “good to see such ability was put to good use?”
Except for maybe a bear with a cartoon balloon saying “what the heck was that????”

Well, he didn’t “outrun” them. He had a head start and barely got to cover a short distance away before they caught up to him. The fastest man on earth cannot outrun a bear.

If one of th ebears was William “the Fridge” Perry, then I can understand how the guy was able to outrun him!

I know this guy...he’s unbearable.

This was a 20 yard sprint. If it were a distance of over 100 yards the bears would have easily caught him in time.

A friend told me one time he was running in the woods when a bear started chasing him. Thinking quickly when the bear got close he would stop and when the bear slide by would reverse directions. Again when the bear got close he would stop and when the bear got close and do the same thing. The bear finally got tired and left. I told my friend it that was me instead of him I would have $hit my pants. He said what do you think the bear was sliding on?

I am thinking that someone likes to tell stories.
Do bears chase after prey in pairs?
Would a screened-in porch stop a bear?

This story is BS. Black bears pose no threat unless you represent a risk to cubs. Secondly, I don’t care how fast you are. If a bear is serious about coming after, you’re not going to out run it.
To: JoeProBono
Bet he can tell some whopper fishing stories.

I was chased by a bear once but luckily I had my bear repellent. It’s something I invented, it’s a tape of this connected to a loud speaker.

When I hit play, the bear immediately stopped dead in his tracks, is eyes bugged out, he roared in pain and immediately ran away.
