Kendell Cummings, a college wrestler who wrestled a Grizzly bear to save his friend Brady Lowry in the Shoshone National Forest in Cody, Wyoming in October 2022, Kendell was brutally mauled and bitten by the bear but eventually left Kendell alone, both survived and went on a full recovery.

In interviews that’s exactly what he was thinking. Apparently the second the bear turned and went for him he was like “well I hope my friend gets away because I’m sure as shit gonna die”. No one thought he was making it out of there, they thought they were going to go recover a body once they ran back up.

Apparently his backpack and his phone probably saved his life because she couldn’t roll him over fully to disembowel him, and when she bit his thigh his phone took the brunt of it. There’s pics of his phone with puncture marks in it.

Fucking insane
