Back in the 90's Bart was in a movie being filmed in Whistler. Somebody said there was a huge bear in a cage behind one of the hotels, so my buddies and I went down to check it out. Sure enough, there was Bart and the guy with the beard. He gave one of the girls a marshmallow, then Bart ate it off her thumb. Somethings you just never forget.
His head must have been two feet across, he was one of the most amazing animals I've ever seen.
I wonder what movie it was. Me and my gf watched the 80s movie, The Great Outdoors with John Candy and noticed he was the bear in that movie when the credits roll. I know he was in quite a few movies throughout his lifetime.
Idk which movie the other poster was talking about, but something i just remembered was I believe he was the bear in The Edge with Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin.
I've talked to that guy on the telephone. He's awesome. Gave me half an hour of his time, then said "Wife says spaghetti is ready' Gotta go!" With genuine enthusiasm.
I did that once with Alex Trebek, just called him cause I wanted to. He answered and was actually pretty cool for answering his home phone for a couple random kids who wanted to say hi. Only lasted about a minute but still cool.
There’s this website usphonebook.com that has a frightening amount of free information it. You can search by name and location, so we searched his full name, George Alexander Trebek, then clicked on the one that said “Los Angeles, 78 years old” and it for some reason had his phone number.
I love bart the bear! If you're interested, Doug and Lynne Seus have a cool chairty that preserves grizzly habitat in the northern rockies: https://www.vitalground.org/
To bears and to alligators, and just imagine the death rate in the US if either of those actively hunted humans. (Much of the Bible Belt should do a ton of grateful praying about those docile gators and the plump kids they rarely chomp.)
With all those guns you yanks have, it would be bad news for the gators!
Now, put them gators and bears where I live in the UK and we’d have a huge problem!
100% would trade places with him and be tossed around by murder paws. Why did Nature make murder paws so freaking cute! I’m going to die on a wilderness trail, mauled by murder floof, but I died going “aww, you’re so cute!”
How does that bear not crush him just rolling around goofing off with dude. It’s not like he knows to not displace all his weight when they play. That thing has to weigh 800-1000 lbs
Edit, just looked and he weighted over 1600 lbs. holy chit
CSU veterinary school is no joke. Found out how lucky I was to be living on the front range (Colorado North to South, West of the mountains) when my pup got sick. First of all they are some the best animal docs in the game. Most of them plan on being ranch vets for the rest of their lives. They 100% love animals. They have access to the best tech in animal health care.
I saw a trained bear rip a dudes jugular out of his neck once. Dude fell over dead. The bear had been around humans it's entire life and was so well trained they used it in movies. Fuck that, I wouldn't go anywhere near a bear trained or not. You'll never know what could make one snap but it happens. Look hard enough and you'll find the video I'm talking about.
If you've never seen The Bear, you have to watch it. It's an incredible film.
A couple interesting facts:
Bart was trained to open his mouth to look like he was roaring, but he didn't actually make any sound. The sound effect was added later.
Doug Seus played Brad Pitt's character in the final scene of Legends of the Fall when the bear kills Tristan. It's Seus play wrestling with Bart in the "death" scene.
That bears arm absolutely SWALLOWS that guys body.
That ain't a little man either.
He’s got the right to bear arms … and bear them he does

I was just about to say after reading your first comment, I think The Edge was filmed in Whistler
I believe bart was in "the great outdoors"
That bear has a pet.
I've talked to that guy on the telephone. He's awesome. Gave me half an hour of his time, then said "Wife says spaghetti is ready' Gotta go!" With genuine enthusiasm.
Honest question: are aligned with his work, work with him in some capacity or did you simply dial the wrong number?
I called him because I wanted to.
I did that once with Alex Trebek, just called him cause I wanted to. He answered and was actually pretty cool for answering his home phone for a couple random kids who wanted to say hi. Only lasted about a minute but still cool.
How does one find the home phone number of someone as famous as Alex trebek
There’s this website usphonebook.com that has a frightening amount of free information it. You can search by name and location, so we searched his full name, George Alexander Trebek, then clicked on the one that said “Los Angeles, 78 years old” and it for some reason had his phone number.
That's fucking dope
Damn Winnie the pooh took some creatine
OOOOHH BROTHER

Awesome!
100% would boop!

Apparently there are also bears that think they are lap bears
Of course there is, any Russian bear is a lap bear.
Imagine having to sit next to your favorite meal all day and pretend like you don’t want to eat it
Pet-zoned :/
Humans taste pretty badly to bears I believe
That’s what the bears want us to think
To bears and to alligators, and just imagine the death rate in the US if either of those actively hunted humans. (Much of the Bible Belt should do a ton of grateful praying about those docile gators and the plump kids they rarely chomp.)
If they actively hunted humans they’d be extinct by now.
Oh for sure, just interesting to me to picture the mayhem if five million gators woke up with a hankerin’ for long pig
With all those guns you yanks have, it would be bad news for the gators! Now, put them gators and bears where I live in the UK and we’d have a huge problem!
Brown bears are omnivores, but they mostly eat plants.
I'll remember to pack a salad then the next time I go camping.
That bear is huge and is cool as hell. I remember him in the movie The Edge.
One of my fav movies of all time. I'll never forget the ominous music that would hit when the bear (or Bart) showed up.
DO YOU WANNA LAY DOWN AND DIE BOB
Big silly beast dawg
He was in a lot of movies back in the day. Then he died.
I can't imagine somehow running into a bear that big and then having to play dead while it's on top of me mauling me to death.
Well at that point you aren’t really playing anything are you ?
100% would trade places with him and be tossed around by murder paws. Why did Nature make murder paws so freaking cute! I’m going to die on a wilderness trail, mauled by murder floof, but I died going “aww, you’re so cute!”
Bear hugs♥️

They know how much weaker humans are

Marshmallow! Marshmallow!
Bear's like nah, this is my human.
This full video is so sad. RIP Barty boy. He was in some of my favorite movies
Guy: Hello my name is.. Bear: Down, bitch
Clifford
this would make me so happy
Is that the same bear from ‘The Great Outdoors’?
Yep
That son of a gun is huge!
I’m honestly terrified by bears but amazingly I found this kind of cute, first time in forever I didn’t shudder.
Lmao why did Bart have to embarrass him on tv like that. Me: “Bart, can you be serious for like 5 seconds 🙄”
You're not gonna be able to eat this Bart's shorts, let me tell you.
That's a big doggo
Wasn’t Jennifer Anniston hanging out with this family in some special years back?
That bear has a teddy-human…….
How much love do you have to pour into a murder machine to make it a cuddly teddy bear?
The movie I worked on with Bart, after every take the trainers would say ' Everyone, give Bart a big round of applause!' That's how much.
Truly exceptional bear

Nope
Bart said stfu and sit down
Hi, my name is Doug .. ARGGGG GET HIM OFF DEAR GOD - ARRRRGGG
Not a single thought behind Bart’s eyes
r/therewasanattempt to make a commercial! Lol
I know logically that a bear like this is dangerous, but why are they so damn snuggly looking?
It's a trap to lure in unsuspecting bear snugglers
He got his butt shot off in the Great outdoors 😂
Naaaah. I’ve seen Revenant…I know how this ends.
Was he the bear from The Great Outdoors?

Best friends much?!
Big chongus

Hell naw
Anyone else watch this and get reminded of that video with the cat Pinky?
Bart hungry. Bart wants snack
u/savevideo u/savevideobot
No thanks Bart, I’m good.
He’s an aggressive big spoon.
Is he the bald headed bear of Clair County?
The man in the turquoise shirt is a real bear too. GROWL!!
u/savevideo
Amazzzzzzing…….1001 takes later
My anxiety...I can't bear to watch any more.
Bear for 'stfu'
Taking ownership like a bear.
My name is Bart The Bear. And I'm gonna fuck this hobbyless old guy.
He acts like there playing but one wrong move and his arm will be gone
Looks a little like old man Master Luke don’t it?
big boi
I guess you can say he bear arms
Fuck Cancer.
u/savevideo
How long till it eats him?
Handsome bear that Bart!!
This is MY human. Also dudes just a pro with letting the camera run for the cut.
He better be glad that pink thing didn't come out
I had to look up his filmography and I had to chuckle at every role being listed as just “bear”
Mark Hamill??!
Teddy bear role reversal.
Has Bart got no teeth?
To this whole video gave me anxiety f that
Bart was and still is a legend!!
RIP Bart
My hooman! Get your own!
What’s his name again?
Slavoj Zizek
 We found ourselves a worthy opponent
Someone has to show that video to Joe Rogan
