well let me ask you this. i am an angry sub 500lb bear, with razor sharp box cutters for fingernails. now there is 100 men, but that means one or two don’t mind getting there throat slit. who among you is it?
ohh i thought so.
If these one hundred men were the last people on earth and had to survive and repopulate, you can bet your ass they’d win and none of them would think twice of getting mauled for the good of the pack.[/quote]
If it’s 100 MEN good luck with repopulation…maybe the assbabies can take out the bear with wicked ankle bites?
Here is my opinion of 100 people versus the bear, no matter how much planning is involved:
The bear immediately gives chase to all 100 men, they scatter, and immediately he begins killing. The men hide in all corners of the area, but are all killed.
Whatever plans were initially made are immediately thrown out the window once he starts charging.
Because honestly, who will be the first volunteer to attack him? You’re gonna start running for your life once the massacre begins. And are you really gonna try to grab his paw while it is slicing through other people? I doubt it.
It will take him awhile, but eventually he will kill all 100 men, eat until he’s full, rest, then eat some more. Imagine a wolf in a henhouse.
A man is a pretty pathetic animal without his weapons, to be sure. Three hundred Spartans held off the entire Persian Army for days with a bunch of pointy sticks, but take away our weapons, and even a hundred of us are powerless against a single bear.
And just think: there are people in this world who believe that a man has no business owning or carrying personal weapons any more. I say these folks are traitors to the human race, and should be fed to the bears.

BooBoo is a sleeper. You wouldn’t know it by the cartoon, but I used to party with him. He would get half ripped and just start fucking things up. He bitch slapped a bull moose once though, and its head spun so hard that the antler hit BooBoo in the chin and knocked him silly.

This is a point that I think most people don’t understand. They assume the bear will immediately go on a rampage. I believe that even if angry the bear will be hesitant to attack. This is why the humans have time to form weapons from the bones of some of the unlucky humans.
Even without tools you could eventually rip someone apart to reach the bones, it would simply take a while and be disgusting. After they have some simple weapons they can surround the bear and have a real chance of killing it. Like others have said the bear will be flanked and can’t kill everyone surrounding it fast enough, so it will be injured.
At this point it becomes harder to calculate who wins in the end because there are so many variables.

I guess it could be done with one person, though. Those things don’t let go, so a guy could get it bite one of his arms, and then once it had a firm grip, he could gouge out its eyes. Once the eyes are gone, he could start beating it to death with his free hand and his knees.
He might lose a hand, but he’d win. Plus, he’d be wearing clothes, so the bite wouldn’t be that bad. And if anyone thinks of using, “he wouldn’t be in any condition to fight, mentally! He’d be too scared!” as an arguement, think again. He’d freak out and do whatever he had to for survival. The dog won’t, because the dog probably isn’t fighting for its life, it’s just been pissed off a lot. How else do you get a dog to attack a human?[/quote]
This…
Yeah, clothing has alway protected all the bear victims I’ve seen.They barely got mauled to the point of being put into the ICU. So, how is this guy NOT going to get whipped around like a rag doll when the bear has ahold of him?
After consulting a co-worker who used to work as a park ranger up north, We’ve come to the conclusion that 100 men could take the bear easily if they all worked together and shit in a skillet and left it on the bears stove. Other wise they are fucked!
Haha! My money is on the bear and so is my park ranger buddy’s. But we did get a hell of a laugh from this

There are monkeys here in Shizuoka that don’t weigh much more than 20 pounds. They travel in packs of 15-20 and they will fuck you up if you get in their way.
You versus [/i]a hundred[/i] of them? My money is on the monkeys.

I don’t know about you, there’s no way in hell I’m going to get my shit ruined just so the human race can repopulate.
I can only think of two instances where I could be convinced to attack a bear:
My death is inevitable if I don’t attack (gun to my head, enclosed space with no retreat, etc).

NOW how is 49 guys going to hang onto a single paw.
With their hands. A bear may be able to play ball with a 700lb dumpster, but there’s no way it could easily move at least 7,350lbs with a single paw.
this is going to be like the scene out of lord of the rings, where the large guys are sending 3-5 guysflying with the single swipe of the scepter.
5 != 49
A 14ft 1900Lb bear with 4-6" claws and a paw as big as your chest. please.
The bear in the picture was pretty big for a grizzly and its paws were only about 2/3 as big as that guy’s chest. 1,500lbs is also kind of big for a grizzly.
Also, in the video posted, that lion easily dodged a lot of the bear’s attacks. Humans are more intelligent than lions. If needed, they could see the bear winding up to swipe and begin moving out of the bear’s range before it even started the swipe.
Not that any of them other than the first few brave people would have to bother with dodging much, since the bear will have its paws firmly held on the ground by then.[/quote]
I can pull my 7000 lb truck with two hands and I’m no bear.

My money is on the monkeys too, but he said gnomes.
100 gnomes against you, in a 20x20’ area, they have more endurnce than you, quick as some squirrels, and got long ass sharp teeth with jaw action like a beaver or pirrana. They aren’t scared, and attack you as a group. oh, they also can lock their jaws like a pit bull.
Me and my broter was talking about the 14’, 1600lb bear with long claws like fingers released into the prison holding cell. you’d have a scene like in aliens

But I was talking about a dog in that post. How is a dog going to cut into your arm if you’re wearing a thick jacket?

Yeah. That’s pretty much the situation here. An area the size of a football field. Where will you retreat to?

But can you do that while the truck is driving away from you, and with one hand? The bear will have to, because the people will be pulling on it and maybe biting and pinching if they can.
Also, I heard that bears’ (maybe just grizzlies?) front legs are shorter than their back legs. If you run downhill, they’ll try and follow you, but then they’ll go summersaulting down. The bear would either break its neck or be very embarrased, and either would be beneficial to your side of the fight.
Now, it’s not like there are any hills in this area, but a like ninety-nine people playing dead while a lone man lures the charging bear over their bodies might do something.
