[imRyRy]

Is the ice OK?

[halomannetje]

Wow extreme nice. Quality

[globalonlinegaming]

"struggles to free himself" get that camera man to do something

1:10 *fuck yeah* face

[cocoa020]

0:26 polar bear, why you no go around?!

[audun0905]

@rewatchthemoments Yeah, I bet you would run down to a fucking bear 3 times your size that most likely would kill you. Idiot.

[mercanaries3]

@rewatchthemoments

you dumb ass...polar bears can swim 100miles in ice cold water

[Olibear88]

GOOD JOB! (peew pew peeew)

[ooohmyhead]

0:08 GLOBAL WARMING FAIL

[ScHiAvoStiCcO]

Well done bear!!!

[leisititine1]

SUPERBES IMAGES!

[SuperMegguy]

beautiful video

[SufixJami]

The top humans suck the ones that control us, even tho its sad its natural their is no Global Warming its all natural but they are killing the world i agree with that but its not because of global warming.

[realloyd20]

@SufixJami we cuase global warming, unless there is an astroid coming our way and its slowly heating the world up, i honestly believe its us who cuases global warming

[SufixJami]

@realloyd20 To be honest, i do not believe in global warming, because of the concept, but i do believe the world is getting slowly destroyed by the corporations that are feeding off of our planet. However global warming was brought by Al Gore.. hmm, they say that co2 is a greenhouse gas... which doesn't make sense to me because we breathe out co2 so they are basically saying that we should get rid of humans to make the world a better place. Now you tell me if that's right or wrong.

[realloyd20]

@SufixJami no you dont have to get rid of humans ( and if we did we would have to get rid of all the other mammals that breath oxygen) but im not saying that we should get lrid of the human race, i just watn someone to slap the human race in the face and wake them up to realize that if we dont respect nature adn its self that their will be no us! without mother nature we cannot live , we acctualy owe it to her

[realloyd20]

@SufixJami adn im not tryig to be rude or anything

[baseball79512]

0:10 "Ah shit. Not again"

[hamburgerjk65]

quit filming the poor bear and go fucking help it!!

[PlayerVid]

we are really fucking this planet up...

[mrsandman2000]

Yay he made it!! :D

I was getting all sad for a moment.

[stlnlnn]

i hate humans for what they do to your planet

[IcyScythe]

whew glad the bear made it I was worried.

[emporiita]

I though he was going to drown, i felt the tears coming..

[rayearth05]

Don't believe everything you see. Look for "global warming scam" and see for yourself.

[coolbreezeee]

@rayearth05 why would scientist makeup global warming. what do they have to gain by just saying there is global warming, obviously there are aspects that prove that it exists and maybe the signs aren't completely prominent now, but over time it's just going to get worse and worse, so why would we just sit around and wait for it to get worse before we help the situation.

[Rsrh44mag]

@coolbreezeee theory invented by politician. Earth goes through natural temperature and climate changes, also known as uniformitarianism. IT hasn't gotten any worse than when Gore claimed the ice caps were "melting". original statistics and numbers were faked by Nasa and several other organizations. who all admitted to false statistics. I think were fine :)

[realloyd20]

@Rsrh44mag WE may be fine, but does anybody ever think about animals, what they prefer, we are losing animal species, we need to change becuase we are ruining this world, only one world

[Rsrh44mag]

@realloyd20 So scientists who have admitted to faking global warming statistics are credible sources on the state of this world and it's o-zone? don't believe everything the news force feeds you. Try living in finland and tell me global warming exists. Daft

poor bear!

[LordKaisen]

0:16 IM MELTINGGGG

[CuddlyBadger]

Yay!! He got out!!

[19Jones91]

sad

[jpflather]

not enough people will see this

[bystronic375]

We're doomed.

[JacksonsFoodSto]

I almost stopped watching cause I thought he was gonna die. Im glad I stuck around for the happy ending

[vims288]

only solution to stop this: kill all people on earth, no one will wake up and do anything about this, sad but true, we're the world's pest.

[Aegelana]

@vims288 the earth heats and cools over millenia aka geologic time scales. The fact its warmer now in the poles than it was in 1970 means nothing. The earth goes through countless heating and cooling cycles which happen over much longer time periods than 30 years. You cant say its global warming because there is less ice than there was 30 years ago. We may well go through a cold century in the 2100s or 2200s. Al Gore fooled you. Search "the great global warming swindle"

[BloodFeather]

@Aegelana so u think we should pollute the earth untill it collapses for rizzle ma shizzle ?

[gosugg]

thumbs up if u want a pet bear (any)!

[Conan1KA]

@gosugg thumbs fucking DOWN

[franny96MJ]

awwwwww :')

[Deussinha2]

Heroic! :)

[Yuichio654]

I feel so horrible for the polar bear.

[tharangafo]

@Yuichio654 why ? they don't feel cold like we do

[Yuichio654]

@tharangafo I know

[SoukuSaga]

Thumbs up if you where rooting for that polar to get out.

[Therobin3a]

you know why this is happening it is because us wake up and do something about it be some more ecologick

[Greens2be]

I hope NO POLAR BEAR DIES....

[Rgbaseball527]

@1:05. he made it!

[NPking911]

1:05 - VICTORY!!!!!!

[seshu240cc]

why cant these videos be longer. comon BBC

[Fluffyninjacake]

YEAH YOU GO LITTLE POLAR BEAR!

[zintex8]

1:06 Man I love how he just drags his rear legs. for a moment it looks humorous.

[0neofthem]

Big boy can do it.

[lumberj23]

Polar bears dont need ice to live. In fact less ice is better for them.

[carmengal]

Yay for polar bear!

[Maj0rT0Mm]

:(

[minz456]

i cried when the bear fell into the ice ):

i feel so bad for the polar bears! D: we're destroying their habitat and hurting them! >:

[kirarinidol]

i feel so bad for the bear :(

[WhiteSugarFive]

I could watch these things all fucking day, lol. They're like movies, haha, but in real time. Yay for the polar bear escaping!

[waddilyaddie]

o my GOD i hate seeing animals in danger that was down right sad

[TheAccidentalMonk]

Polar Bears are (not unnaturally) great swimmers, and have been tracked swimming continuously for up to 100 km (62 miles).

[litojonny]

us humans suck

[ahmaas]

@litojonny eu humans rock

[Rsrh44mag]

@litojonny Common misconception. Contrary to ill informed belief, Polar Bears are in no immediate danger. They live on the edge at almost all times and can swim well over 100 miles. They are basically arctic sea bears. Shows how much the world knows..

[realloyd20]

@Rsrh44mag way to just state what you know about polar bears, just becuase they can travel 100 miles in the water, doesnt mean they want to their whole lives, it gets tiring after a while to swim for so long! unless you can put your soul into a polar bears and live like they would you would realize that their new world sucks! shows how much you know

[Rsrh44mag]

@realloyd20 I'm guessing you haven't spent too much time around bears, If a human can swim across the English channel, imagine how far a Bear that spends a good chunk of its life swimming in sub zero water can go?

[LoungeVstudio]

It's fun to be a bear!!

[thaliamarka]

14 people experienced that.

[errOHneoS]

@hardcommunist What? Polar bears swim all the time.

[spanisheman]

@hardcommunist What? What are you saying? Did you reply to the wrong comment?

[realistromeo]

Dont worry guys, with all this environmental change evolution will step in and give us an aqua bear! one with webbed feet and a nose capable of smelling underwater!

[EightLimbz]

This make me wanna kill anyone that helped to destroy nature

[MrMasonsPlacement]

@EightLimbz

that could be you, if you ever had a lift in a car when you didn't need to. me too.

[silentnight3291]

That shows how so thin the ice have become =(

[strongid]

PRO polar bear :)

[BigboyDownStairs]

The average american family has 2 cars & also consumes over 4 times more electrical energy than any other country, a lot of people over here also don't give a fuck about recycling. We, as a nation account for over 50% of all of the pollution made in the entire world. Because of this we are causing ice caps to melt and destroying animals habitats which eventually causes them to die out. Natural disasters are also becoming a lot more frequent. No wonder why every other country hates us

[iamtheoneanimallover]

Oh, okay. So, you just sit there and video tape it? GET OFF YOU LAZY FREAKING ASS AND HELP THEM!!!

[spanisheman]

@iamtheoneanimallover What do you think it is? a Humans best friend??? It a polar bear for Christ sake lets see you get anywhere close to it.

[annatikitiki]

:(((((



[aquestorm]

oohaaaaaaaaawwwwwww polar bears are to cute to be treated this way by mother nature

[RainbowSmiles3]

@aquestorm its not mother nature

[OTTOLOKS]

@aquestorm This isnt mother nature. This is what are pollution and burning of fossil fuels does to our ice caps, really sad to see this injustice.

[KKCSTUDIO]

@OTTOLOKS It's a natural cycle. Our Earth has been getting warmer and colder for millenia. We are in a period of the Earth warming up. It's hard to say whether our fossile fuels are affecting this, but I agree that the burning of fossil fuels does impact Nature in other ways.

[geeekx3]

:( omg

[MissIStoleUrBf]

i cried this isnt even funny

[MissIStoleUrBf]

i seriously cried this isnt funny

[missamymariex]

lady should NOT be aloud to watch this.

[franny96MJ]

@missamymariex (?)

[ThePupellafashion]

If I were there I wouldn't video tape it I would take the polar bear home warm it up and snuggle with it!

[ThePupellafashion]

@ThePupellafashion lol

[amberboo1016]

This made me cry

[Zoey93339]

i dont care how but someone's got to get the little guy! :(

[amberboo1016]

thumbs up if you came here because it made lady xeona upset

[Yay74attack]

aww

[JBTester30]

First time, ever.... right. So we've had scientists up there for ions have we? Also, what about the last few winters up in the Arctic when the pack ice froze farther south than any fisherman had seen?

[thermaldog]

@JBTester30 ye true, and also polar bears are happy swimming in the sea anyway so it make no difference, PLUS if global warming is such a big deal and bad for polar bears why do they keep them in zoos in hot countries like america and europe?? its the big global warming lie, fucking vermin like al gore...id like to throw him onto thin ice.

[CCMAR]

ALl Animals are remarkable, yet us humans continue to dwindle their natural habitats by destroying their mainlands. Its really sad

[MedusaNegrita]

Obama...we need you to save the Polar Bear. Oh, no need.  He got out.

[2wheels88]

The science is settled on carbon polution and global warming,Please watch this - Lord Christopher Monckton Speaking in St. Paul just copy and paste it in search box.

[Thrust4Money]

fk i shouldnt of watched this high

[japesjake]

LOL, this is incredibly romanticized. The bear is completely unperturbed and they make it seem as if he is struggling for his life, haha. Save the polar bears before they all drown in the evil cold waters, lol!

[ryand76]

That bear did not give 2 shits about the ice...He just got back up and walked away. Those fuckers can swim like fish. It is us pussy humans who think they can control the way the world works. We cry about everything when nature tells us, "fuck you. We will adapt." Did you know that we too, as humans, have overcome climate changes? And trust me. At that time humans had no effect on the climate! So who would you blame for the past? It is the planet that chooses who lives and who dies.

[IVisionLive]

@ryand76 Really, you're comparing humans to animals to survive in climate changes? Let's just go turn down the temperature to freezing temperature in the tropics and hope all the animals will survive because you know they can adapt...

You are Darwin's theory of natural selection at work.

[tekkenmanful]

i feel bad for the bear

[Jamesaldinho]

Like if you ran around your house turning all the plugs off <3

[derpdederpful]

yaaaayyy! he got outt <333

[Andythefunkman]

i´m happy for the bear

[PHEEBAFULL]

i nearly cried!!!



[frayner06]

@PHEEBAFULL

Why he made it out?

[Nightversionn]

Polar bear news..

.

Winter Arctic ice coverage tied for lowest ever recorded

.

The surface area of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean shrank this winter to one of its lowest levels in decades, more bad news for polar bears, which depend on the ice to survive. .

Anchorage Daily News Alaska

30 March 2011

[erniesanjr]

THIN WINTER ICE? You can't take this video, if it's winter. It will be dark, there is no sunlight and the Bears hibernate in winter.

[lissabliss]

AAAARRRRRTTTEEEXXXXXX! NOOOOOOO....

[316greg]

Poor Bear! I've been there, crossing the Chicago River when it wasn't completely frozen and my ass fell in!!

[keigan74]

I HATE HUMANS

[poppinandrea]

@keigan74 me too

[mongolenpup]

why does everybody feel terrible for the bear?...it's not like this badass can't swim and endure ice cold water...plus...the earth has been going through climate changes since the beginning of time and that's just the course of nature: species appear, species die out...

[KoushAcalledKukA]

@mongolenpup they even did not die out, as there was no ice on greenland... (it was called greenland back in the days!... yes, because it was green, not icy!)

[mlc2005]

It's ironic that we're all sitting here (myself included) on our computers talking about how our energy usage is causing this.

[londonxbridge16]

:'(

[iErasify]

i feel sorry for the bear. look what we did. we are destroying the world. next, the polar bear will be gone forever

[erebos91]

That is just terrible to watch to see that we are effecting these animal and more so much and all we do is well// nothing

[lMitan]

Nature HD is great !

[NDesignation]

Destroying the enviroment is like hating and destroying the most beautiful picture in this world.

[Nightversionn]

i'm ashamed to be human as well. Not only are we going to wipe ourselves out, we will take with us animals like the polar bear, grizzly, a lot of the ones at the higher end of the food chain. You'd think with all we know we could have done better than this.

[Nubs4TheWin]

Europe sucks!

[pzdontsaystupidreply]

@Nubs4TheWin the western hemisphere is the reason polar bears are dropping in numbers. you suck

[Alexandra9390]

This seriously breaks my heart. 

[AsekOneM2C]

im ashamed to be a human

[PraetorianL33T]

@AsekOneM2C if your "ashamed" of being human why don't you go do the polar bears and the planet a favor and just kill yourself instead of typing a little comment worth nothing but shit

[ThorkilKowalski]

And this is where all the eugenics are collected.

Eugenics:

A social movement in which the population of a society, country, or the world is to be improved by controlling the passing on of hereditary information through mating.

[greenjadefox]

We're are all accountable for this.... every single  last one of us.

[colenbrak]

@RandomHuman1000 your range rovers did this, your land rovers did this, you aston martin v12s did this...

[NellPetrova]

we humans are MONSTERS!!!

[TheCaptainQuinn]

That is one bad ass animal right there!

[Rodlunddennis]

FAT

[boxerhook1]

this hurts it truely does

[katy1423]

@boxerhook1

Eh?

[CyprusHot]

@boxerhook1 we have ruined earth and ruined nature, shame on us and i am no eco warrior!

[Winston2004]

@CyprusHot u r a moron

[CyprusHot]

@Winston2004 and ur a whore

[KillRideMasterAnd]

@boxerhook1 your spelling TRULY sucks

[pedrolikes2008]

It's amazing the position he takes to distribute weight equally through his body by dragging.

[leafblowinSK8]

sadface when it broke through, happy face when it got up :D

[MarcusZeusXD]

cwood4ever NOTICE HE SAID THIS IS WINTER! YOU THICK PIECE OF POLAR BEAR FROZEN SHIT! it is global warming.

[cwood4ever]

This global warming is a lie ice melts in spring. Global Warming is a global conspiracy in order to gain more power using fear and manipulation. Dont fall for this.

[delphiote]

@cwood4ever Eloquent post. Since conspiracy theories are usually grounded in sound logic and reasoning, I'll assume you're probably correct.

[grasd2]

@cwood4ever the ice is melting in winter too you putz that's what the big deal is

[jsarellano2]

@cwood4ever so i guess its all right to pollute the air because it wont cause global warming. Are you saying we can trash earth as many times we want. Even if you say that thats not the case, people are talking about global warming to encourage people to be more clean, even if the facts are wrong. Also how to do you about global warming, are you a scientist to know that facts?

[StearnzieMusic]

big struggle. looks like he's just fine to me.

[Nightversionn]

Polar bears news…

.Experts tackle plight of the polar bear with recovery plan

.

There is a story today in the Anchorage Daily News talking about the Fish & Wildlife Service hosting a large town gathering in Anchorage.

.

The meeting is about coming up with ideas that could be used in a polar bear recovery plan.

.

(For anyone interested, to the OIL TROLL cyber-bullies, don’t read the news if you don’t like it and it conflicts with your oil industry propaganda)

[bananian]

@Nightversionn

build a highway for the bears.

[melancp11]

Weee have to do some thing about this...

[killerbiller35]

0:58 translation from bear language: "hate mandays.."

[spump303]

Animals adapt to their environments. When, or if the ice melts away, it won't be so much as to cause them all too just POOF;die. Most likely they will migrate or change their ways of survival. Just throwing that idea out there.

[lixdexical]

George Bush doesn't care about polar bears

[mongolenpup]

@lixdexical rofl

[JaiR209]

OHH NOO !! without polar bears, who will advertise coca cola

[Nightversionn]

We need to care for our planet, if not for ourselves but for animals such as the polar bear, which are losing sea ice due to global warming. We are all prisoners of this life-giving planet and we need to take care of it.
