You wont regret it .Are you OK reading subtitles ? Most of his cinema films were in German , perhaps a bit dated now , except for the Bad Leutenant which was more recent and his first try at Hollywood and has Nicolas Cage in it . I appreciate Herzog's complexities and many layers . He is not some one easy to pin down and put in a box like some sell out like Gremlin Spielberg who only has profit in mind. Herzog's projects are that of a true artist who does not care for towing the line . One of the last adventurers , especially when it comes to picking locations, subjects or scripts !

What was Treadwell "going to protect" bears from? They were in a Bear Paradise, great climate, plenty of food, plenty of hunting. I can't imagine a better habitat for a bear to live in than Alaska. Too bad Treadwell didn't just leave the bears alone.. in peace.

[@alexandertheresurrection2810]

Someone in the film actually said he probably would’ve been completely happy if a bear ate him and only him while he was out there and no one ever found him. I’m inclined to believe that simply for the fact that he felt like bears were his only calling in life and he wanted to live doing nothing else but that. I think that would’ve been a better ending for him but his girlfriend also dying and two bears getting killed was the tragic part about this whole thing.

[@residentpresident8191]

Treadwell's empathy was very much needed by those bears. What they didn't need was his actual presence and physical contact. That's where his own delusionist thinking came in. Love the bears from afar. Be an activist in preserving their habitat and in keeping humans from encroaching too closely and ruining their ability to exist. But living with and among them and attempting to interact with them was his fatal mistake.

[@toomanyaccounts]

even bear handlers know that the bears are extremely dangerous even if these bears are passive and friendly to the trainer since it was a cub. they don't let their guard down and they are ready to have the bear put down if needed

You have to know going into a Herzog doc that it's going to be heavily shaped by his worldview (which romanticizes reality in its own way). At the same time, that "edit" is quite masterful because the viewer imagines the worst possible screaming -- absence is present, and all that. I agree that that kind of interaction with bears is a philosophical misunderstanding of nature. It will occur time and time again. It's extremely tempting to anthropomorphize animals and to empathize with them in the wrong way. Lately I've been watching videos of orangutans and my heart just melts and I want to hug them and feed them, but of course they are wild animals who absolutely do not need my love and affection, and who could kill me at any time. What they really need is for sentimental people like myself to stay away from them and to help maintain their habitat without coming too close.

They are too much like us, as in.....psycho and unpredictable. The rest of the great apes will co-exist peacefully with you if you learn their "language" and abide by it.

You are fine with orangutans. They're very peaceful and not too strong. There is even a orangutan school, from humans for orangutans (you'll find it here on KZbin). Gorillas are very peaceful animals too, but a lot stronger than orangutans and us, thats why one need to be careful around them. Just stay away from chimps.

i cant imagine thinking camping in tents in bear territory is a place i want to be in,. or near. i love bears, but they are one of the handful of animals that scare me seriously bad. i was at one time thinking of moving to montana or colorado. bears were one of the reason i decided no. so were cougars. i always live on at least 20 acres in the stix, and those animals are there.plus i have livestock and that would have been like ringing the dinner bell. i was retiring early (45) and wanting to move to more land.so i googled cheap country property and spent weeks deciding on what state i would move to. in the end i decided texas. land is crazy cheap, incredibly gorgeous as long as you dont go east (desert). we have wild hogs and they can be dangerous but mostly will stay away from humans. and snakes. gosh do we have snakes. UGH. weirdly enuff where i used to live copperheads and water moccasins, yea too many! one year i killed 17 venomous ones. (dont kill non venomous even tho they give me a heart attack when i first run into one) LOL. the best year-2 and 2 dogs bitten by snakes that year also. now i moved to where there is timber rattlers, and that is terrifying. they stay in groups, have nests. omg that is my worst nightmare. a nest of venomous snakes! but i have been here for 2 1/2 years , and only found one skin, and saw the tip of a snake (bright white tail)??? running away from me. i looked to try to identify it, ??/still have no idea???it was so bright i wasnt sure for a minute if it was a rats tail. but afterwards i was like calm, and thought, no def. snake. what kind? unknown. rattlers do tons more damage and are tons more dangerous if you live alone. you dont have much time to be helped. with copperheads/water moccasins, yes you need to go to the hospital, but you will probably be fine. scarring, and possible loss of digits, and some pain, hell yea, but rattlers ohhh wee! thankfully and luckily i have an old time country vet who carrys rattler antivenon. no others vets i knew ever did cuz it costs the patient like 1,800 dollars per vial, and it has a short shelf life. but this vet has it. thankyou so much!!! worried big time about my dogs. i have a big year round creek on the very back side of my 20 acres and i ampretty sure the rattlers stay there, plus i have about 2 acres mostly cleared, still wooded, but no scrub or brush, keep lawn very short, actually i mow it crazy low to kill it cuz the sandy dirt is super comfy to walk on and also cool for the dogs in summer. plus less mowing for me, and it looks beautiful doesnt look like a skanky yard. so far so good!

from redit 2 months ago: SocialInventions · 2 mo. ago This audio is 100% real. We know there is an audio tape, and we know the person with the tape kept the tape and hasn't destroyed it. We know the tape has been in multiple hands from the police, to the coroner, to Jewel Palovak. We know Jewel did not destroy the tape because she trotted it out years later for Werner Herzog for his documentary. Audio tapes get leaked all the time - it's just human nature. I bet you dozens and dozens of people have heard the original. I've heard people say there are lots of fake audios floating around blah blah blah. No. There is only one audio, and a few different remixes of that one audio. There is one audio, and it's real - it has 1.9M views on KZbin at the time of writing this, and that's all I'll say. This is, more or less, what the "iT's FaKe" crew would have you believe: A person with a perfect understanding of the circumstances of this event - and expert level sound staging, recording, and editing skills - either happened to sound just like Timothy - or was able to recruit an actor who sounds just like Timothy - who then went on to put up an absolutely stellar, chilling, Oscar winning performance of the exact events - extracted purely from their own imagination of what his frantic screams would have sounded like. These guys were also able to recruit a woman who sounds just like Tim's gf, and got her to go on and put up an absolutely stellar, chilling, Oscar winning performance of the exact events - extracted purely from her imagination of what her frantic screams would have sounded like. This group collaborated, scripted, practiced, and recorded a stunning fake audio - in completely secrecy, then anonymously leaked the audio, thereby going through immense effort to carry out an oddly cruel act, for no reason or identifiable motive whatsoever. They then proceeded to say absolutely nothing about it for 10+ years, and were never outed by each other or those around them, or in any way discovered for this ridiculous, elaborate performance. Some of the "debunking"responses here are irritating me: "It's fake - iM aN aUdIo EnGiNeEr:" Lol okay bud. There is no such thing as an "audio engineer" in the same vain as an electrical or mechanical engineer. An audio engineer is just someone who records and mixes sound on programs like Soundforge. There is no credential by which one can obtain that qualifies one to speak about what we're hearing in this audio. "It's fake - tHeRe iS aN eChO:" So fucking what? A loud ass bear growl can easily get an echo outside. Check out this video. These two bears are fighting and growling - the bears sound exactly the same as in the leaked audio - and there is an echo. The camera was in a tent, and there are many rumors that this is a second hand recording of the actual recording. We don't know why there is an echo. But the sound quality, timber, echo, and any other audio artifacts tell us NOTHING about the realness of this audio. Some people here are saying it's fake because it sounds like stock audio of bear growling or stock audio of rain. Lol, you all know that stock audio is just a recording of the real thing, right? The point of stock audio is to sound real. If it sounds like stock audio, that doesn't mean it's real or fake. It just means it's a recording of bears and rain. "It's fake because it doesn't match what happened:" No, this is EXACLTY how it happened. Stop referencing blogs and the documentary. Go do some big boy research by reading the news reports from 2003 where the actual investigators talk about what they heard. Tim screamed and told his gf to come out, he told her to hit it with a pan, she told him to play dead, then she told him to fight back, Tim kept screaming the bear kept growling. Also, Herzog has never confirmed that the leaked audio was fake and not the same thing he listened to on the documentary with Jewel. Where are you people getting this? Ya'll just listened to a man get eaten alive on audio. That's is. Just deal with it. You should have shoved your morbid curiousity back up your own asses where it belongs. But instead y'all went hunting for it, and y'all found exactly wtf you were looking for. Now be adults and deal with it.

[@BeRightBack131]

I personally think they should release the tape, or at least part of it. It could very well be a deterrent to anyone considering following Treadwell's path. However, there is a much bigger reason why they should release it. Poor Aimee turned that camera on specifically to document their part of the story, whether she knew she'd die or not, I can't say, but I'm pretty sure she purposely turned that camera on because she wanted a witness to what happened (witnesses being the rest of the world), but also because somehow she felt it was an important part of their story. To keep it silent, to hide it away, defeats Aimee's hope or desire to share the end of their lives with the grizzlies, just as they had shared the beginning and middle of their lives among grizzlies. I dunno, I feel like they're cutting off Aimee's fingers, the fingers that WANTED their last moments to be recorded, and I assume, shared with the world. Maybe she wanted people to understand what grizzlies can do (a cautionary tale), or maybe she wanted the final act caught on film/audio. Maybe that was her way of making their story complete. If Aimee had enough courage to face/fight the bear and accept her fate, shouldn't we have the courage to listen to HER story, their story, their deaths?

Mr. Herzog is so right. Timothy once spoke to a bear rather strongly to not charge him when he was just passing by it. That was the right thing he did, but he never should have approached a wild bear to touch it for any reason. That was disrespecting their personal space of safety. And you must be prepared and knowledgeable about how to teach the bear proper manners so they don't touch you in the wrong way. He treated the bears like harmless, domesticated dogs instead of the wild animals they were. One danger sign was when, in several videos he kept saying that where he was was "his" land. No, it was not. It was merely a place he was sharing with wildlife. Throughout the 13 years of videos, the bears never gave any indication that they wanted to come over to him and they would have done so with someone they felt safe around. They merely tolerated his intrusions.

There have been instances where a human is able to form a longstanding bond with an animal but it's through extenuating circumstances. The only way you can possibly get a wild animal to come over and physically interact with you warmly, is if you helped that animal (saving it from certain death) there, you'll actually get their trust. Don't go in thinking you can earn that trust in any way. Those instances where you save an animal directly is rare, best to not bother them.
