A hilarious yet terrifying video that’s making waves online shows the exact moment a man wakes up to find a huge bear sniffing his face — and the unexpected reaction that follows has left millions of viewers in disbelief.
According to reports, the man had fallen asleep late at night on his balcony to enjoy the cool summer air. Everything was calm until around 2:00 a.m., when a large bear wandered into the area, likely searching for food. The curious animal quietly approached the balcony and leaned in close to investigate the strange scent — the man himself.
Security footage captures the unbelievable moment the bear lowers its head and begins sniffing the man’s face as he sleeps peacefully, completely unaware of the danger. Just seconds later, the man suddenly wakes up, opens his eyes — and finds himself staring directly into the face of a massive bear.
Startled beyond belief, the man lets out a loud scream and jerks backward, nearly falling off his chair. The sound is so sudden and intense that the bear, equally terrified, jumps back in panic and bolts down the stairs, running off into the dark.
Neighbors reported hearing the man’s scream followed by loud thumping sounds as the bear fled. “It was like something out of a movie,” said one local. “He scared the bear just as much as the bear scared him!”
The video quickly went viral, with viewers calling it both the “funniest and scariest” wildlife clip they’ve seen all year. Many commented on the man’s lightning-fast reaction, while others joked that his scream could scare off any animal on Earth.
Luckily, no one was hurt — and the man says he’ll think twice before sleeping outside again. “I thought I was dreaming,” he laughed. “Next time, I’m locking the doors and staying inside.”
