Wow.
B.C. man comes out swinging in bear attack
The bear then attacked him, knocking him to the ground, and West soon found himself on the losing side of an ill-matched fight.
“I rolled onto my stomach and clasped my hands at the back of my neck. She tore into my skull at the back of my head, moved over and bit me on the left side of my body, on my ribs and left arm,” said West.
Knowing he would likely soon be dead unless he fought back, the injured West managed to get to his feet and picked up a stick about as thick as his arm.
..
“I swung my piece of wood like a sledgehammer driving spikes and I kept swinging till she was lying flat on the ground and there was blood coming out of her nose,” said West.
The five-foot-nine man eventually crushed the bear’s skull with the stick, killing it.
It’s one thing to survive a fight with a bear. It’s another to beat a bear to death with a stick.
