That Time You Were Completely Unaware A Bear Was Chasing You

Maybe if you turn down the Rihanna you could hear that snarling bear chasing you.

(edit) Seems quite a few people are questioning the validity of the video although i haven't found anything that says for sure one way or another.
CrushBugsays...

Yeah, I am pretty certain that the bear noise is from one of the video games I play. As in, it sounds exactly the same. I just can't remember which one.

Fake - compositing on the bear, that you can hear it clearly over the wind, that she covers so much ground but it's still right behind her.

grahamslamsays...

Fake because a real bear would have caught her. This one's not even looking at her and is coming in view from the wrong angle.

newtboysays...

My thoughts exactly. Not only does it come from completely the wrong place, it's not following her path at all. That, and all the other reasons put forth, make me vote "fake".
Not a terrible fake, but still a fake.

If anyone is interested, the bear sound effects you've been talking about come from the Series 6000 sound effects collection.

I've recognized common sound effects going back as far as the 80's, so in the early 2000's I got determined to hunt a few of them down and find out why they were so pervasive.
Those of you recognizing the bear here would be equally familiar with the screeching falcon and "dragon" roar (griffins/dragons from WC2, along with every other dragon/hawk sfx in most games everywhere), the sci-fi power-door, and the magic/fireball explosion (doom, pretty much all of doom came from this effects CD).

I am really, really tempted to make a Series6000 tribute video. I own the Series 6000 collection myself (You can get it for ~$1000 online now a days), and use it in nearly every project.

For now, I've sifted the original sample video the company uses for their promotional stuff, but I don't know if qualifies as *Related=http://videosift.com/video/All-Hail-The-General-Sound-Effects-Library-Series-6000

Not just that. This resort is east of Tokyo, near Nagano on Honshu. The only wild bears on Honshu don't look remotely like this bear.

Umm, bears hibernate in winter.

The video of the bear looked pretty comped-on too.

That's really walking back and giving the fake a strong kick in the nads after it's already been pounded to snot.

I knew there had to be a sound collection like that, because that sci-fi door sound always pops out at me wherever I hear it.
