He was so calm about it.
Because he had a video camera of course, that's all you need.
How are you so calm lol.
You have to be
Beautiful cat!
dont tell him you aint got no gun
It's like it's waiting for him to run
if you have a cat you know thats exactly what it was doing
Balls of steel on this guy
Beautiful cat, cute as well. That’s definitely a Tom cougar, considering how huge and healthy he looks. He must catch a lot of deer on a regular basis.
He looked just as curious about you as you were of him. Those front legs are massive. What a hansom kitty.
It was really thinking trying to make you lunch. This is exactly what our cats do with birds in the yard.
What a lovely big cat
He is huge..wow
100 Kg 😮😂
That was a monster Tom cougar. Looks very healthy too. Probably weighed well over 200 pounds.
Other looking with curious, other looking with fear 😮
Wow such a ferocious animal, could have made meat loaf out of the dude, yet got scared! Awwww!! ❤️
I wonder how many times a big cat has watched or followed me? 😂 I used to go on long hikes by myself in wilderness areas in Colorado all the time. I’ve never seen a lion, but I’m certain they’ve seen me. I’ve seen fresh tracks in the snow.
You need some protection. It's A big gamble hiking alone without it.
@@jonstafford2691 what I don’t need is unsolicited advice from internet strangers 👍🏽
I have a 20 acre green run as my front yard in Colorado and we have 3 Bobcats out there, a large male, his mate, and their petite daughter. I see her mostly. She is curious. I had my phone camera out pointed at her last March, she was just sitting there on an upper terrace that bordered the property so pretty and calm, I looked down and there was a tiny bunny looking up at me with this look on it's face, like "don't give me away" and as it turned out, I wasn't video recording. Got so excited and failed to push the records button.
Unrestricted rifles are legal to carry in Cana, but not pistols. Where was his rifle? Hiking unarmed in animal territory is asking for trouble.
Bear spray, knife, and pistol are always on my hip when hiking alone in woods. Here in upper MI we have black bear, wolves, and a few big cats. Odds are that you likely will never need them for defense but it's great insurance. What if you fell and broke a leg, ankle, or a hip with no cell signal and no way of defending yourself? No way.
People going hiking don’t carry rifles. We carry back packs when hiking. Suggesting every mountain hiker should carry a rifle is ridiculous. Bear bells? Yes. Bear spray? Yes. It’s Canada we don’t think guns first. And we have a lot less dead people to show for it.
@@MK-cc5ve Bear spray does not always work. And what if you are attacked by a pack of wolves? Check the internet for the man who was killed by wolves in Ontario. Rifles are not that heavy. Better to carry a rifle than end up in the hospital, or dead.
@@LaurenceDay-d2p To follow your logic, it would be best to stay home. People go hiking all the time without guns or paranoia.
@@MK-cc5ve Not paranoia, just practical precautions. One never knows what can happen. Better to have and not need than to need and not have.
he's too cute.
huge because hes eaten the missing men in his areas
No, just the children..
why do people go in the woods with known animals without protection? At least carry an air horn are better Bear spray.
Bear spray,...and pray the wind is at your back,...otherwise Cougars gonna have a spicy meal
Same reason people feel safe walking the street not knowing who could be near what a grand and intoxicating innocence
Animals are just as scared of us. (Well, except moose and grizzlies.)
No Gun.....he probably never even had a frigging water bottle with him.
I ain't no survival expert but WHY do people venture in the woods, without some sort of survival gear on em !!
A lighter or matches, a Bowie Knife, or Combat Knife......list is Endless.
Oh yeah & he just calmly narrating his own....possible death.
Guy got nerves of Granite, i give him that.
💯👍
everybody learns at their own pace. willing to bet money he didn't take a hike without some decent bear spray at the very least after this.
Was the voiceover added later? Also, how far away was the cougar really? 100 meters? 200?
And I swear that I don't have a gun - Nirvana :)
"let's just see what he does" don't do that
you need to leave !!!!!
Yes you do have nerves of steel.... but as your narrating how close he is you could of been DEAD!!! I have no idea how long it was from the first encounter to the next encounter..... but I would of been backing out of that area as fast as I could making myself look big and making a lot of noise.
No it wants you to run he did the only thing he could do , stand his ground
cat could've closed the distance on 15 meters in the blink of an eye
Well... What happened at the end?
That was kind of foolish to go out in an area known for wild animals without a firearm or at least pepper spay.😮
"I dont have a gun, I have nothing". Guess that's how evolution works. Survival of the smartest. What would u have done, if he was serious?
Threatening gestures are very serious in the animal kingdom. Even the mightiest predators don't risk injury due to the fact their victim has already spotted them and is ready to fight when they are not yet in a superior position.
Let's just see what he does lol
You need bear spray at least!
Should carry pepper spray
He' trained that lion from a cub
Not a lion bud
@@mr.yellow1988😂 mountain Lion. Also known as cougar.
@@hannaherler8697 ok listen here I was dumb as hell 4 years ago and didn’t consider that they were shortening mountain lion lol
Was he a sleepwalker? 🤣
Always carry a gun
Not allowed in Canada,..only harsh language
Only way to stop wild cats humans are some pusies
@@applejack2911they’re allowed in situations like this, when you’re out in the bush for animals
Wild? Gun
Not having a gun and being stalked by a Cougar. Dumb as hell.
