BEAR-LY ALIVE Man dragged away by a bear is found ALIVE one month later looking like a mummy after being stored inside its den as food

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/9375816/man-bear-attack-found-alive-month-den/


Named only as Alexander, the victim was severely injured and close to death when hunting dogs found him in Russia?s remote Tuva region.
The emaciated man was rushed to hospital where medics discovered he'd broken his spine after being set upon by the brown bear.

He told doctors that the predator had overpowered him - then tossed him in its den where it kept him for a month.

Pics at link and they are bad. I won't post them.

Always carry!

I wonder how many missing persons end up this way and we never find out?

I can't decide if the guy is super lucky or super unlucky.

Probably started out as a really fat guy. And I'm sure drinking his urine really kept him going.

I agree. Bears don't stash live food.

The pics of his rotten flesh makes me think it's legit, though perhaps not a month.

But... I think there's a reason for the reputation Russians have as tough. They are.

It's a tabloid. I guess they've expanded from "a source in Guatemala".

Its a fake story that has been debunked by a couple websites. For one, the original paper that reported it is a tabloid ala the national enquirer and several of the sources mentioned in the original article dont exist.

Wasn’t sourced from a tabloid. Those are just the western reports. Could still be fake.

If BushMasterBoy can believe in Aliens we can believe in a month in the life of Alexander Bear Food, Skip.

Can a man live on only his own urine for a month? Please.....obvious bs to me.

Are all things lies, and can we at least hold to that one truth even if its self-cancelling?

Sorry for the fake news.

Please carry anyway.

Some serious HIPAA violations. He should sue.

Exactly. We should export our brand of "democracy" with universal health care to Kazakhstan. He'd be much happier.

I'm somewhat skeptical of the story but not because of the surviving for a month on urine. 3-4 weeks seems to be a commonly accepted limit as long as the subject is getting water but it could got longer if they have more body fat. Louis Zamperini was adrift for 47 days although he and his raftmates "cheated" by catching an albatross, a shark (eating just the liver), and some fish (not many) during that drift. Plenty of other stories about people being lost at sea for well over 30 days who managed to survive.
