Actually, I'm amazed he was able to walk away. Definitely a contestant for the Darwin Award.

Hopefully quite a lot.

How he didn't end up with his guts stomped out is amazing.

That was mildly disappointing - I was rather hoping that the buffalo would launch the bozo into the lake.

Huge animal! Why would anyone do that? I was hoping the bison would flip him up into the trees.

City slickers!

They think this is Disneyland, the happiest place on earth.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

What the hell was he doing? The bison was off the road to the side and he taunts him?

That thing was huge!



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Just the most recent example of magnum stupidity in the GYA. There’ll be another shortly. Amazing how people I assume to be semi-intelligent, lose their minds when they get to the Park.

Too bad the Bison didn't connect a little bit.

I really wish people would learn how to use their cellphone cameras. Geesh!

I love how at the critical moment the videographer lowers the camera and we get to see some fascinating fenders and asphalt.

I crew up with cows & Bull sin my backyard. My granddads pastures bumped up behind our property. I wouldn't do that with a bull I wasn't comfortable around. A bison... whole lot of nope!

I cannot fathom the asinine bear-human and bison-human interactions you must've seen in your career.

I live in MT, this is why going to Yellowstone NP is like a trip to the insane asylum during the summer. Beautiful place that has the need for a lottery system to control the number of visitors, Glacier Park being in need of the same, reservations only. Hunters have to submit to the draw system, time for something similar. The stupid foreign tourists are more dangerous than the Bison.

Disappointing. I was waiting for the bison to just plow through that guy.
