"Say What You May... He Was ONE GRIZZLY OF A MAN ~ !!!"
Ah yes... Timothy Treadwell. Friend. Animal Conservationalist. .....Meal.
These videos have to be seen to be believed. I have seen them numerous times and i got to say that I find them DISTURBING.
Sadly for this guys legacy I do not recall hearing about him when he was alive. I thought it was a joke but it is very real. This footage was turned into a movie at Sundance Film Festival.

This guy was determined to live with Grizzly bears. It was the classic story of boy meets bear, boy sleeps with bear, boy becomes meal... along with girlfriend... for bear. IT happends every day, and every time you hear it you just cannot believe it.
What makes this story so bizarre is that he was an actor at one time. Rumor has it that he was the original choice for WOODY on Cheers and got passed up by Woody Harrelson. From there he went on this cocaine fueled odyssey and fell into an abyss of drugs and mental illness. This is what he told his parents. The cast of Cheers has not commented.
Maybe its true. But is it worth throwing yourself at a bear as a sack lunch? I think not.
These clips are incredible because the way he died was incredible. I mean.. not in a good way. Or even in an admired way. BUT A STUPID WAY.
ITS STUPIDLY FASCINATING.
