“What do you do when a bear tears your pants off and bites you… and your only response is ‘Hi’?”In this wildly entertaining episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the full crew — Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray — dives into one of the most bizarre and hilarious wildlife segments you’ll ever hear. From moose warnings in Colorado to a record-breaking wave of bear attacks in Japan, this episode is packed with jaw-dropping moments and laugh-out-loud commentary.True Crime Turner returns with a deep dive into a CBS-style news package about a Japanese mushroom forager who filmed himself fending off a bear with a stick — while wearing a body cam. The bear tore his pants, bit him, and somehow, the man’s response was a casual “Hi.” The team breaks down the absurdity of the moment, the questionable use of whistles and pepper spray, and the awkward news anchor delivery that makes it all even funnier.

terrible stuff.

Back in two thousand and six.

Speaker 7 (01:58):
Elizabeth Palmer looks like why Japan's bears have been so aggressive?

Speaker 8 (02:02):
It was full in the forests of Iwata in northern
Japan when forager Satoshi Sato went to make a YouTube
video for mushroom pickers. Suddenly he heard something and grabbed
a stick. A bear whose cub was up a tree nearby,
charged and kept on coming.

Speaker 6 (02:23):
All right, so shocking. Yeah, there the video that's happened. Well,
the bear's kind of he's up a tree. He's climbing
up a tree a little bit to get away from him, huh.
And he's poking a stick at the bear and the
bear's kind of snapping at his feet, and the bear
has aroused.

Speaker 8 (02:44):
And kept on coming.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
So hold on.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah, so this guy has the ability to climb a tree,
hold a stick in video a bear attacking him.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
So he was doing a YouTube video for mushroom pickers. Okay,
so he's picked mushrooms. It did appear to be some
type of body can.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Okay, Yeah, Okay, that guy's amazing. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
Yeah, And I assume you had the stick in case
a bear were to attack. I could be wrong.

Speaker 4 (03:12):
Well, old Gal said he picked up the stick. Here's
the second part of the story.
