A move not for the feint of heart.

There’s a “right to bear arms” joke hiding here somewhere...

I’m guessing that his grandmother’s nickname was “Lefty”. :=)

I’ll try to remember this one for the next time I fight a bear.

Great story to tell around hunting camp.

” then I shoved my arm down his throat, ripped out his tonsils, and made me a bow tie! “

Apparently bears have a strong gag reflex.

Good guy but he wants to say it wasn’t the bear’s fault. Who the heck’s fault does he think it was? He didn’t try to kill the bear.

And gun control nuts will come out and say “See, there is no need for guns. We’ll start a class on how to shove your arm down a bear’s throat”

Reminds me of the “Being eaten by a crocodile” skit by Monty Python.

That actually makes perfect sense. Most prey try everything they can to get out of a bears’s grasp.

Shoving your whole fist and arm down his throat had to freak him out.

Moral of the story: do the unexpected.

shoving his arm down the animal’s throat.

Interesting, today I discussed this very act of self defense with a fellow softball player when we were talking about being attacked by a large dog........

There's another tactic involving large dogs but I wouldn't advise it against bears...........LOL!

A .44 or bigger on the hip costs less than a new arm.

Brian Williams claims to have coached Chase Dellwo on proper bear handling techniques. "in fact, I was responsible for Coach Paul Bryant earning the nickname 'Bear'," said the erstwhile news anchor.
