Skiing Tourist Followed by Hungry Bear Down Ski Slope
Quote:
A tourist on a ski slope in Predeal, Romania had the misfortune to encounter a bear that started to follow and run after him when he was skiing downhill. The incident was noticed and filmed by people who were sitting in the chairlift. They tried to warn the skier.
"Go faster, go faster! Come on, the bear is chasing you ! Go faster! God forbid, don't look back! ” the people in the chairlift shouted at him.
Fortunately, the young man escaped safely after the unexpected encounter with the animal. The tourist did the right thing when, at one point, he threw away his backpack, that contained food and drinks and the bear became preoccupied with examining this object and the danger was overcome.
According to the mountain gendarmes, during the day, three calls were received to 112 signaling the presence of a bear. Two calls referred to the Clabucet slope and another to the slope on which the tourist was skiing, a slope that was apparently closed.
Also weeks earlier people filmed a bear playing in the snow on the ski slope.
