Yeah, that's what you call a REALLY BAD day. I'm sure he guy panicked when he saw his buddy getting tossed around like a rag doll by the grizzly.

That would be a hard shot to make with that much movement. Have you ever seen a dog shake a big towel? You would have to run up at nearly point blank and make the bear to drop the guy, stop shaking him, or be close enough to piss on the bear, for a sure shot. When you do that, you better not miss. You also better be yelling your head off, to distract the bear.

I spend a lot of time in bear country and I have gone over that same situation in my head a hundred times. "What if, how do you react?" If you have to think about it when it's happening, good luck, because someone is going to die. You better have a plan in advance and be able to react in a split second. Obviously, lead slinging guy, didn't have that luxury.
