It all happened in Romania. While a tourist was enjoying some fresh powder, a brown bear was hot on his trail, chasing him downhill and gaining momentum at a rapid pace.
You don’t need to speak Romanian to grasp what is happening in this video. People in the ski lift shout from above to the skier that a bear is behind him and that the bear is gaining on him. The skier tossed his backpack off to distract the bear and eventually escaped to safety, but it does raise a valid question; what’s the most dangerous situation you’ve been in because of an animal? Has a bear ever chased you? Let us know on Facebook!
