        The bear didn't seem too interested, did he? It's like "where's that dude going"?

        Would like to have seen what the bear did after the turn around but the cameraman was probably doing his own 360 about then....correct that - he'd do a 180.

    Kay, watch the last second or two, the bear does a startled jump - just enough to take him off his front feet for a second. It's easy to miss. That guy is lucky he was able to turn around and go at a good speed.

    We didn't get to see the wet streak down the skier's leg though.

      I think the skier made the right decision to get the hell out of there fast,you do not want to cross paths with a bear period.

        I watched it several times and it looked to me like the bear was an "oops" and then seemed to be turning away from the skier. Man - 5 more seconds of video would have made it so much better.

          Looks like he was walking away to me.

          I agree - even a few more seconds. The bear was startled. If the guy hadn't turned around he could have been in trouble. Grizzly's aren't known for calm temperaments. They startle easily, but they are quick to open a can of whoop-ass for startling them.
