Randy, my mom’s cousin was mauled by a grizzly with cubs in Denali National Park three summers ago. He had no weapons, no time to react. Nobody knew where he was, and he didn’t even have his ID. He was only spared by one of the cubs squealing, which drew the grizzly away. He was able to walk back to a road where a bus came by, that had some medical professionals on board. He was clawed, bit, AND EACH RIB WAS SEPARATED FROM HIS STERNUM. she did manage to stomp on him a few times. He was very fortunate to survive.

[@chrisnewport7826]

Be warned, two legged animals are out there too, be ready and discrete.

[@JF-fx2qv]

Especially, the female species.

[@3nertia]

The bipedal animals are the most dangerous ...

[@dashcammer4322]

By far the most dangerous animals of all.

[@glockguy4127]

Thanks Randy and the TR Team for keeping up the entertaining content. Keep smiling!

[@TacticalRifleman]

Our pleasure!

[@SouthernGround]

You forgot the animal nobody ever talks about "The Tic" it attacked me and I never knew it, it gave me Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (5% death rate) there's no cure and it comes back from time to time. If only I had a 357 or at least a pair of tweezers 😬

[@charlesmullins3238]

Good point…there bout the worse enemy here in eastern Ky

[@adriandarcy-taylor6429]

​@@charlesmullins3238And in Europe. I contracted tic-borne encephalitis in Germany, decades ago. It nearly killed me, and left me with acquired brain injuries. I'm still fully functional (on the surface) but I have complex issues that make life tricky.

[@tmango78]

Good point. My buddy got Lyme. Struggles every day.

[@Blap552]

I had one just inside my ear and I instinctively put the cigarette lighter from the car near my ear(w/o knowing there was a tick)and I saw it jump onto the visor,Grossed me out but I Thanked God!

The Best in the business is also the Wurst. ❤

[@Wanderinwonder427]

Randy Wurst is a national treasure and must be protected at all costs.

[@PaulAmerican]

Randy spooks a bear and the bear attacks Randy. Later that night the bear writes Randy a apology letter from its grave.

[@americanpatriot6918]

Please thank Randy for sharing his knowledge about this subject with us. He's a hell of a guy, they definitely don't make guys like this nowadays. People should listen to him, he won't stear you in the wrong direction.😎🇺🇸🦅👊💪

[@Bigfezzig]

Love to see Randy vids, can’t wait for more in the series!

[@justinquaid2610]

A bear tried attacking someone I use to know, he died from cancer awhile back, but he said when he shot the bear with his handgun that the hide of the bear is so thick that the bullets didn't even go through. After that incident he upgraded to a 50 caliber Desert Eagle.

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

T.V.😵‍💫

[@therulesaredifferent8280]

The bear and mountain lion population have been known to make videos on how they can stay safe from Randy.

[@russellridge8623]

Tell him to give John Rambo back his knife. Randy’s like EF Hutton. When he speaks folks listen

[@charlesmckinley29]

Thank you Randy

[@robertagu5533]

This dude is only part right. Humans are ALSO often just as fast an agile as the fastest animals. Sometimes faster. An we got Elbows an Knees too. Also DON'T under estimate adrenaline. Basically SITUATIONAL AWARENESS in the Wild... AND ALWAYS be armed with a couple weapons of choice just in case think was his basic points. Maybe a spear or staff. The shotgun an them hand axes an Tomahawks ... Or just a big nice blade or strong pistol are my personal favorites

[@mikec4684]

I always at least have a 4 inch folding blade on me and my little North American arms 22 magnum revolver. ALWAYS

[@mhquigley]

Thanks Randy!

[@Kq4hcuDan]

Ive trained in Filipino knife fighting and escrima for years, and randy solidified my love to, for fixed blades.

[@thedonuteater5474]

This is why I think it’s laughable when you go to a state or federal park and there’s no guns allowed lol yeah ok.

[@dashcammer4322]

If you have the option of not going to a no gun zone, take that option.

[@michiganprotection]

Stay away from places you cannot protect yourself

[@Adam-fx2en]

Great video, full of wisdom. Thanks Randy and may Adoni Bless you.

[@abbraxxus1]

Wurst Fest! Absolute gold!!!

[@thomasn251]

Thanks Randy for some great advice, knowledge and ideas

[@gunsandcafe]

10:29 let’s get into those many purposes…

[@wadelintick9538]

Hey bud, big fan. My story is of an aboriginal man I met in Kitimat BC selling salmon in the village. From a distance he moved like a young man but up close he had the face of a 70 year old. Straight up i asked him what the story was on his condition. "I had a bear accident". His story was of gutting a moose with his 12 year old son on a hunt, and a grizzly charged from the tree line. His son froze and he grabbed his 3030 lever action and it jammed. I asked him if he did panic, "It was slow motion" he could still see every step, every breath. The way he said bear accident struck me, it was like describing a fender bender in the parking lot. In the end his son grabbed a tree limb and attacked the bear with it and the bear backed off. His face had been ripped away from a swipe and was hanging from his chin, the bear had rag dolled him 20 feet in the air numerous times. Another father son team that was on the hunt caught up to the original shots, somehow they medivaced him out. A bear accident. cheers

[@thomasnugent3836]

Randy, Thank you very much. Very informative and educational discussion.

[@JC-gy4xs]

Thank you for making this video for us!

[@warrenphilips8441]

Randy is great. I was waiting for him to say something about mountain lions and putting fake eyes on the back of your head. There are mixed results if you do a search online. It seems like most dangerous animals (assuming they're not hungry) don't want anything to do with humans, so if you give them a wide berth they'll detect you first and steer clear. Some large cats, however, will hunt and toy with prey for the sport of it.

[@mountainlivin]

Randy is a wealth of knowledge and an incredible man. Where's the CRKT Berserker?

[@gregwright392]

Always great content! A issue most people never think about!

[@caka8662]

Would love to see a follow up video on medical gear to carry in case of an animal attack, like bear, mountain lion while hiking/hunting!

[@TacticalRifleman]

Any basic trauma kit would work. Lacerations are treated similar to gunshot wounds

[@johnbrady9946]

Thank you for all your hard work. Your life experiences has served you well. Your faith in our creator has allowed you to share truth and wisdom Again, thank you for being part of the TR team JB

[@TacticalRifleman]

Yes! Thank you!

Pack a esse with the spine sharp halfway…miss my ol Gil hibben raven…remeber those Randy..?

[@dusty7264]

Great video, when I’m hunting in Alaska or big bear country for Moose or Elk I use my rifle in 375 H&H magnum, short barrel 44 magnum pistol and a Randell number one knife.

[@davidmaxwell2205]

good infor randy.

[@TacticalRifleman]

Thanks for watching!

[@terrarecon]

This guy thinks the way I think. I have been an outdoorsman since I was a kid. You have to just be another predator. Like what he said, what we have that is part of our make up is we are tool makers. We are not born with the claws and fangs and musculature of animals, but we can craft better ones than what they were born with. Respect all life. At the end of the day we are predators among predators.

[@billbarber7262]

Randy is Awesome!

[@norseman6306]

Great info Randy! I've had a few encounters with both black and brown bear where I live and only because of the grace of God did it all work out as I was woefully under prepared. Not any more! Thanks to all TR.

[@kevinfryer380]

Love the video randy

[@eddymia139]

Randy, you should show us how to sharpen our knives. Please with a cherry on top 😂😊

[@TacticalRifleman]

Randy already has a video about knife sharpening, that you can find in our video archive. THanks for watching, TR

[@johnovanic9560]

Excellent excellent excellent content

[@TacticalRifleman]

Glad you think so!

[@podsmpsg1]

Definitely have a gun in Bear country and on Safari in Africa. I've been wondering, would a 12 Gauge, 3 inch, 1.5 Oz. 602 grain slug take down an Adult Male Lion?.

[@glockguy4127]

Looked up the energy of your slug and 3 common African hunting rifles. You have the energy, just not the accuracy at distance. But a five rd shotgun IMO is better than a single or double set:hunting gun, especially defensively.

[@mikec4684]

I wouldn't want to be the one to have to test that theory

[@podsmpsg1]

@@glockguy4127 At close range, should work. I'm most likely gonna be at close range. Thanks.

[@podsmpsg1]

@@mikec4684 Yeah.

[@SouthernGround]

Some places in the north west require bear spray, was talking to one ranger and he made a valid point, "You shoot a grizzly you are being charged by a mack truck, you have to wait for him to bleed out, with spray it shuts down his sight and smell instantly,they turn and run (hopefully)"

[@stormforge6838]

This video is very informative thank you for proposing some alternatives for me to consider. I have a severe allergy to becoming food for large predators. Have you heard of this Canadian.? Troy Hurtubise Bearproof Armor. It is both entertaining and well more entertaining. Vids on yt. Enjoy😂

[@Blap552]

Oh a Ranger told me to carry a walking stick and id be fine(in mountain lion country,Devils Head fire-tower trail in Sedalia Colorado). I watched people head up the trail Before And After sunrise/sunset with a bottle of Water!

Thanks again!

[@den_see]

I would rather have a 1 percent chance of survival than zero. If I can increase my odds, im taking it. Know what animals can possibly attack you in your environment and learn what would be the best way to fight them.

[@UrbanDefensiveTactics]

Outstanding

[@gavansimkin5685]

Oi Chief Randy? Thee only thing that I hated most about thee Rescue stuff that I did? Was thee Kicking feeling of Reving a Chainsaw for thee first time? And at the Speeds of anywhere of 280 - 300 Clicks per second... at full Revs? Can you remember time you used a Chainsaw?

Glad it was helpful!

[@cej3940]

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty scared of walking in the forest alone I live in bear country, we also have wolves and mountain lions (supposedly, people hardly see them) Like I have bear spray but I definitely don't feel like I'm not going to have an encounter with an animal and I don't really have friends available to walk with me all the time I really want to get used to it and be able to hit up the trails regularly

People bear hunt with handguns. The most important thing is practice.

Excellent video Randy. Thank for sharing your insights. I actually got attacked by a cougar. It happened in Wyoming near Teton Park in the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar. Just between us the breakfast was awesome. 😂

[@jasongupton7858]

I had an encounter with a mountain lion on an elk hunt. How he got that close without me knowing it was sobering. I was aware of the possibility. I was vigilant. And he still got within thirty feet. If they want you, they will try you.
