Smarter Than The Average Bear


On this day in 1962 a bear became the first animal to be ejected from an airplane while traveling at supersonic speeds. And yet 50 odd years later we needed a documentary to explain why a grizzly ate Timothy Treadwell. I'll tell you why he became a tasty addition Yogi's pic-a-nic basket; no it wasn't the primal hunger of a wild beast faced with a tasty (albeit oddly dressed) meal. This is a case of premeditated revenge pure and simple, I think it's only a matter of time before we have to deal with all those chimps NASA's put into orbit over the years.

So watch out people the Space Monkeys are coming and god help us all if they join forces with those pesky bears.

peace out yo, now I'm off to alert Ranger Smith
