[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 2810283, member: 103303"] This video was tough to watch. The shooting starts around 17min, but I simply couldn't continue past 18:30 where you could hear the shooter blowing on his action to 'warm it up'. Think of blowing on an optical lense - typically it will fog up with the condensation from your breath. The same thing happens to metal - if the metal is cold enough, it will freeze the condensation creating MORE ICE. I'm glad that these hunters made it home safely, and hopefully others can learn from their mistakes. Perhaps I'm being a bit judgemental here, but provoking a bear and then making a video titled 'WE SURVIVED A BEAR ATTACK' ...just seems a bit disingenuous to me. Reminds me of a saying I like to remember from time to time; [B]"The first shot is worth all the rest.[/B]" [/QUOTE]
