I spend a lot of time in the north woods and have seen lots of bears over the years. Most recently in the middle of a lake road feasting on the contents of a garbage can it had dragged and tipped. It was a sub adult and very cute, especially when it left the food and hid behind a tree and peeked around at me. It eventually moved off and I moved the can to the side of the road, keeping all of my Spidey senses on alert, my car door open and engine running.
I have a simple rule for wildlife, "If it can eat or seriously hurt you, do not F^^k with it." They wander thru my place all the time based on tracks but I have not seen them. Fine with me as it is a local sow with 3 cubs this year.
This woman was lucky it was only a bluff charge. Could have been a Darwin moment.

Oh, she's famous now and she was stupid.

She allowed a bear to make the decision if she lives or dies.

She'll probably be a skin magazine centerfold in a month or two.

Those twins look sofa king heavy.

Just a safety thought.............

Used for that purpose would it then be called a "hands" device?

Absolutely. You would need both hands for a single protuberance guidance to the protected region.

Be safe, my friend.

HAHA - VASH! I looked at the bear too. Hunters! Most guys on here observing this in the real world would look at the boobs and get mauled by the bear. Keeping the eyes on the bear is much more manly (and smart!) than some guy focused on oversized silicone replacement milk glands.

Yes, and that's definitely a grizz. Doesn't matter if you get that close, really. That's a defensive situation for the bear. A little 70 pound black bear will eff you up just as good as a grizz. Maybe you will die slower, but you still will be messed up good.

Just as an important question..is it real glands or fake?

Somehow, I feel this is a setup. I ain't touching it.

But....

Based on the outfit and half sleeve tat she likes to broadcast what she's got.

If she likes that kind of attention, what better way to receive lots of it than buying an absurdly large set of dirty pillows.

On the other hand, she is no waif and may have found more than a few provocative ways to accentuate her twin naturals while girdling in those robust saddle bags.

I vote real. She's fat.

The real question here is how would the bear vote if it had pulled an Elaine maneuver as shown on the Seinfeld episode.

Was watching a PBS showing of a Ken Burn's film on National Parks last night.
You should see the old films of people feeding bears back in the days when the Parks were first getting started.
This gal ain't got nothin' on them.

The Parks used to have bear dumps so the visitors could see the bears more easily. They finally were outlawed and the bears were left more to their natural habitat.
I highly recommend the film. National Parks, America's Best Idea, I think, is the name of it.
