'It was so much pain and weirdness, I could feel the hot blood. I'm being rag-dolled, suspended by my flank by a bear carrying me, Colin Dowler said.
A Canadian man survived a brutal grizzly bear attack by stabbing the animal in the neck with a 2-inch pocket knife, according to reports.
As the bear approached him, Dowler—now becoming more nervous—tried to stay as still as possible so as not to provoke the bear. Then when the animal was nearly upon him he grabbed one of his hiking poles and poked it firmly as a deterrent, while keeping himself behind the bike. "Somehow, I don't know how I did it. I used both hands to pull underneath the bear to get to that knife, and I grabbed the knife out and opened it and put it in [my] hand and stabbed the bear in his neck," he said.
Vittorio Giannandrea, one of the five men who attended to Dowler at Ramsey Arm worksite, said that when they saw him initially, they were"shocked and unnerved." British Columbia is home to around 15,000 grizzly bears, as well as some 120,000-150,000 black bears.

Being Eaten Alive By Shark Not Nearly As Terrifying As Man Had ImaginedNANTUCKET, MA—Admitting that his expectations about a shark attack turned out to be pretty far off-base, vacationing swimmer Drew Roberts remarked Wednesday that being eaten alive by a 12-foot great white was not nearly as frightening as he once believed it would be. “This is something that’s always paralyzed me with sheer terror, but now that I’m actually being eviscerated alive by rows of razor-sharp teeth, it’s actually not that bad,” said Roberts, who added that he had “made a mountain out of molehill” as he watched his viscera jet from his body into the surrounding surf. “I don’t know how I got it into my head that being torn limb from limb would be so scary. Honestly, hearing my family screaming on the shore is the worst part.” As several more ravenous sharks began to circle the gruesome remains of what used to be his torso, Roberts noted that his recent real-world experience had pretty much ruined Jaws for him.
