If you haven't already watched "The most Canadian way to get rid of bears" and "Finnish man scares a bear away by shouting PERKELE" do yourself a favor.
@Rogers the bear probably say: hey!! Why u guys running away.. I want to have a cool close up pics on national geography's cover magazine next month!! Please.. Take a good pics of me.. Come back!!! btw, it's not surfboard but the whiteboard/reflectionboard for lighting
@Zuperkrunch That is the best image right there. I still wish I had the video of the pack of coyotes my buds and I stumbled upon boating. Similar incident, more cursing, and a jammed rifle later we were about 1 km from the boat and on the other side of the river!
About the finnish clip and the Perkele he started with, if I may add, the pronunciation and emphasis of the word is quite important, and he pretty much nailed it. So if you ever need to use Perkele, remember this guy. More intense, the better. Even the bear knows he means business. The power comes from within you, young Padawan.
@Cougarsmane Another perfect example is Veikko Sinisalo in the Sisu commercials, digging up a field while swearing sulphurously and mumbling something about "Goddamn frost, you won't spoil my lands for long!".
@Zuperkrunch In Canada everything is polite. Someone has a cancer, it leaves if requested politely. In Finland we shout curse words if we want things to disappear, and they do. It is magic. Even Harry Potter would be jealous.
@DarkMage7280 Well, I suppose the bear will take the free food, not something he needs to hunt or find himself. Mamabear with cubs is different matter.
@ProudHetalian29 Cats and dogs have been domesticated for thousands of years, bear and wolves have not.
Don't get me wrong, I've love a jaguar as a pet, but I understand that my parents' miniature schnauzer won't tear my face off if he has a bad day.
