Tyler Johnson was hunting black bear with his father in the Montana wilderness when, without warning, a grizzly charged out of nowhere and began to maul him. With seconds to react, Tyler managed to draw his pistol and fire multiple rounds into the bear as it attacked. His father—an experienced game warden who raised Tyler in Alaska’s wilderness—also fired, ultimately killing the bear. Tyler survived, badly wounded.What happened next is what most people recognize: Tyler pulled out his phone and filmed the aftermath. That raw footage went viral, spreading across the internet as one of the most intense bear attack videos ever recorded. In this episode, Tyler tells the full story—what led up to the attack, what it felt like in the moment, the decisions that saved his life, and what people don’t see in the viral clip. This is a firsthand account of survival, training, instinct, and the reality of bear country.
