Grizzly Man

You guys have to check this out!

Discovery Channel is premiering the movie tonight, and I've gotten to see the first hour while patiently waiting for Robyn to get ready...

This guy, Timothy Treadwell, lived with the bears in Alaska every summer for 13 summers, until in October 2003 one of his bears killed and ate him...

Yeah, thats what I said...

"It was great what he was doing, but I think in a lot of ways, he got what he deserved." -- One of the men who found his body

"Its sad what happened to him. Its sad what happened to his girlfriend. Thats what happens when you try to be a bear." -- Bear Refuge Director

Its amazing footage. Timothy took a video camera out with him, and recorded his interaction with the bears, and the foxes. He had a group of foxes that followed him around like pets. They would run in front of him and wait for him to catch up. They would roll around on the grass and play with his things. In one scene the fox took his hat, and ran back to the den. Timothy chased him all the way back yelling "If you take that to your den, I'm going to f*cking explode!" Sure enough, the fox took it to the den. Unfortunatly, Timothy did not explode. That would have been good footage...

Ironic, that the bears ended up killing and eating him (they know this because they found his remains in the bear's stomach).

This movie won a lot of awards at the 2005 Sundance (same one that my cousin Ira won).

Stay Tuned...
