A man was left seriously wounded after climbing into a bear enclosure in a Swiss zoo yesterday.
The 25-year-man climbed onto a wall surrounding the BärenPark (Bear Park) in the city of Bern, Switzerland, before falling 13ft into the enclosure, police said.
The unnamed man, who had learning difficulties, was then attacked by four-year-old bear Finn, who caused severe injuries to the man's head and one of his legs, before a nearby policeman shot the creature - injuring it and forcing it to retreat into a cave.

Incidents like this, (and all three branches of our government) seem to prove that stupidity is a force of nature, much like gravity.

Some people just don’t get it. A bear is big, a bear is vicious, a bear can kill you. What else do you need to know?

Unfortunately stupidity tends to rise to the top in all the wrong areas.

Obviously Nanny-statism aimed at protecting the stupid has irreparably degraded human DNA.

It is in Britain so he can't run for Congress! But it could have been a publicity stunt for his entry into Parliament...
