Hey Wild One, thanks for the post. I've had two bear incidents ,thankfully painless.The chap in the clip was a VERY lucky man. It's also good to hear that the bear was stopped by a 45 cal. weapon because , in addition to UDAP, that's what I will carry while fishing remote wilderness.
And also, yet another testament to the senseless ban on carrying weapons for self protection in National Parks. I intend to harm NOTHING that does not intend to harm me and will sensibly avoid all possible confrontations. I've heard enough of the "huggers" rational about trespassing on the bears territory and therefore "deserving" all eventualities including becoming their lunch.

Mark

PS: I understand that the "ban" will be lifted in February 2010
