Polar Bear Knut's Keeper Found Dead

[NoahHoe]

...so i find this video of a cute baby bear and a man raising it like he would a child.

then i find out the man died of a heart attack far too soon.

the night just got awful.

now i need to see more cute animal videos.

[kh1129]

He died a long time before Knut

[PianoLove1968]

Sad news- what a caring man.

[mariosnikiforakis]

the most dangerous living being on the planet is human

[jananbanana77]

shame... so sad, what amazing story!

[MusikkIzMiLiffee]

At the end the polar bear looks aggresive but incredibly happy at the same time. Such a sweet story, cute polar bear :(

[aguustinaa0123]

me dio :( tristeza me recage de llorisqueoo :(

[ElvisLivesUpstairs]

Aww :(

[Nizingur]

Knut!

KNUT!

Not f'kin "NOOT".

[MChell87]

@Nizingur maybe he's one of those weird parents who wanted it to sound like 'noot' but want a different spelling...IDK

[Nizingur]

@MChell87 Haha no. Knut is a very common name here in Norway. And obviously, since polar bears are predominantly in Norwegian territories, they wanted to give him a Norwegian name. It's pronounced "Knoot". And Germans know how to pronounce it - his handler did beyond doubt. It's just this stupid American broadcaster that can't do it.

[MusikkIzMiLiffee]

@Nizingur Yup, Americans . Lol

[DuttyFassyhole]

RIP

[RainbowShanks]

Awww thats so sad D:! Poor knut... :(

[Saipakora]

RIP... God bless both of them!

[rachm1991]

Aww, these two were amazing! I absolutely love the photo at the end. Rest in peace to both of them! ♥

[KTBEverlasting]

RIP Thomas & Knut. Hopefully you two are together again in a better place.

[makemap]

@KTBEverlasting Wait, wait this calls for Ace Ventura,. They can't both die? Something is really wrong.

[KTBEverlasting]

@makemap Yeah, Knut passed away. Not at the same time, but yeah....

[EricLynchSucks]

@KTBEverlasting Well if you look at it that way. Maybe they met with each other some where in the after life playing together like they used too.

[KTBEverlasting]

@EricLynchSucks I hope so.

[Missblackcat333]

[pinoy7tfc]

OMG. KNUT WAS SO FLUFFY THAT HE DIED!!!

[evoldevildogs]

died of cuteness 

[notavaliable13]

rip so cut

[DukeLaCrosse20]

... wow that's weird that the keeper died young, then the bear died young.

[TheJacobsaccount]

ok not to be an ass or heartless but i dont know if im hearing this right is he saying derplen?

[xXFullmoonnightXx]

Aww I hope Knut and his Caregiver are together and happy whereever they are now :'(

[MrYunglyfe]

The bear "Knut" died earlier this year, March 19 ,2011.

[LuviPolarBear]

I <3 knut forever and ever polar bears r my favorite animal and i thank the caregiver may u all rest in peace ),: i named my american eskimo knut

[keliata]

RIP Knut's daddy and Knut:( May you both be happy and free in heaven

[chrisbenoit123]

@keliata Knut died?! :(

[keliata]

@chrisbenoit123 sadly, Knut also died. There is a heartbreaking video of his death (from a brain infection). He paced around and simply fell off a rock into the water. Very sad.

[cmon671]

if you look at the vid to the right, you will know that the trainer, and the bear died.... how sad....

[loh1110]

I wonder who died first, krut or the caregiver?

[inoarcher]

The ending photo shows how life truly is precious.

[LIFalcons99]

that guy in the end looks like Robert De niro

[sunshyneNrainxx]

Aww. Sad but beautiful story bet they are together in the afterlife. ;*

[KingCookieOnTour]

@sunshyneNrainxx ye and in the afterlife knut eats him alife because hes like 4metres big

[JustARandomSong]

the end picture made me smile and frown at the same time... to see how happy they were to be with each other... :]

[SELFlnsurance]

Dat polar bear brang money. He was more useful polar bear than any other polar bear. He will be regretted by our cash holder.

But man handler didn't want play marketing card. Hippie man. He will not be regretted.

I have spoken. Gulash.

[kevster778]

omg thats terriable

[DudeWhitRedEyes]

gouvernement killed the owner to get the bear lol

[peemtp]

In Thailand ,15-16 november 2011

[TV]Thai PBS channel has played the movie "knut and friends".

It make me missed่~

R.I.P.

[dangthisday]

i love you so much ! you'so cute and you make me smile. now i'm so sad and i'll remember you all of my life!

[musicdramagirl19]

KNUT IS JUST LIKE A PUPPY! he is too cute, I'm crying my eyes out at both of their deaths, my heart is literally hurting.

[XiaMichaelX]

Lol it's pronounced newt?

I thought it was kunt

[Schwing97]

R.I.P Knut

[Schwing97]

pore little thing

[hotemil]

Everything has the beginning and the end

So take refuge with the creator, while you can

[bill739]

the bear died last year people

[scir91]

knut should have died a while back. nature didn't want him yet pathetic humans kept him alive. ridiculous!!

[fyfyh]

@scir91 Your mother should kill you when you were born, because you're a pathetic human.

[MuscleCars93]

@scir91 You're the Load your mom should of swallowed, so I wouldn't be talking.

[MidnightMarrow]

@scir91 Tell that to humans who keep fucking barely functioning retards alive or the fact that some people are just a torso you say that shit about a baby bear? Get fucked shitty.

[scir91]

@MidnightMarrow no. i agree with you about the humans part. and i do tell them but then who will sweep the floors and work for minimum wage? we need idiots and morons in this world. we need those "retards" so my big pharma companies in my portfolio can create and pump out drugs supported by medicare and medicaid paid on taxpayer dollar, with profits going into my common shares. hooray for capitalism! and retards.

[SuperMiro73]

both rip:(

[CeeEmmz]

R.I.P. Thomas Doerflein

[squishy014]

the pic at thee end is so sweet ,this is so sad

[solidjdr]

:,( this is horrible. So loving to help take care of that bear. (im a man and im gonna cry)

[marry197]

sad. it was the cutest bear inthaworld

[Plexpara]

what a great friendship.hope they are together again.

[nWoHallNashHoganSyxx]

the keeper and the bear are both dead.

[upnabout25]

why can't the idiot reporter say his name properly - it's knut not newt!

[Missblackcat333]

@upnabout25 no its not, its newt.

[Missblackcat333]

that end photo, if you pause at it, is just amazing. because if you think about how dangerous and vile a Polar bear can be. and then look at that, that is a wonder of nature, and just utter magnificence.

[pizzamom555]

@Missblackcat333 humans can be more fucked up than bears, (btw its called NATURE get used to it) but you see some fine ass bitches all the time

[Benutzer79]

@Missblackcat333

More like how vile humans can be.

Polar bears cannot be vile, ever. Yes they can be dangerous but vileness is a human trait not found in any other animal.

[maskanio1]

@Benutzer79 Actually Cats can be pretty vile. My cat will do sneaky stuff behind my back and to the other cats while im not looking.

[dcwcwcw]

@Missblackcat333 I am sorry mister super man with 53 likes but if you notice that bear couldn't do shit when it was that size....

[retaildiscounts]

@upnabout25 because knut sounds funny

[TzTokFlame]

Awwww he's so cute <:O

[turkmuslim4ever]

little bear is cool :)

[Hyenna15]

:'( DONT WORRY LIL' GUY! IM HERE FOR YA!

[MonkeysThatTalk]

:( such a sad story. I love dogs, cats, bears, anything that needs some help. Stop global warming!

[XxTheReptileGirlxX]

Poor Knut. Feel bad for the little guy...

[AmaurisPD]

@XxTheReptileGirlxX

Knut Died on March 19 2011.

[zoebaby709]

I can't stop crying :*(

[gummibearpanda58]

knut is so cute

[4thel0ve]

After reading the full story about how Knut was removed so soon from his human "daddy", and then how Thomas, the handler, died so young...

it sounds like they both died of broken hearts. :(

[andreakaryme]

waao wi the chido wai

[cletus901]

I just heard about this sad event. Sad series of events. First Knut's dad, then Knut himself.

[Vilemk0]

Wow, he looked like a grizzly himself.

[AngelBiLove]

Naww :/

[dwsfl2010]

i hope i can have the opportunity to raise a cute and harmless polar bear too

[djsmilieface]

i want a polar bear ):

[messege2010]

R.I.P to both of them this is the most heart touching story ever, but the main thing is he is reunited with thomas now, and sorry to argue on a video like this but fuck who ever could dislike this your fucking horrible!

[softan]

@messege2010 "ut the main thing is he is reunited with thomas now" Maybe you missed the part of them being dead. They don't exist anymore, their brains are no more. Thus they are not reunituned as there are no "they". Now if we could leave religion out of this story I'd be a happy camper. It's a touching story no doubt.

[messege2010]

@softan obviously i mean they are reunited in heaven duhh? and i have not said anything about religion?

[damienjameszimbrick]

is it me or did the picture of knut at the end looked really pissed?

[MegaCaitlin01]

how sad

[thunderssound]

WTF is RIP assholes

[TheNineLivez]

@thunderssound

"RIP = Rest In Peace" you idiot.

[thunderssound]

@TheNineLivez you the idiot bitch bears lover i hope they rape you one day

RIP

[TheNineLivez]

@thunderssound

u hope I get raped and call me a bear lover for correcting you? umad? LOL... fucking degenerate.

[thunderssound]

@TheNineLivez you shouldnt say idiot when im clearly i dk wtf is this kids word RIP is

shut the fuck up and go sleep kid

[TheNineLivez]

@thunderssound

so you say I shouldnt call you an idiot when you called everyone assholes? not a very convicing argument there. clearly your one of those persons who's too dumb to actually come up with an argument that's reasonable, instead you use constant swearing and use other peoples ages, mine being 16, as insults when you yourself have the attitude of a 8 year old. As you clearly dont know proper english you wont understand half of what I said so you'll probably just do what I wrote above

[thunderssound]

@TheNineLivez you started this you shouldnt say it from beging idiot

when im clearly asking for word

and when you ansowred me thats mean you are asshole

didnt even read all your replay

go to sleep wtf



[TheNineLivez]

@thunderssound

I said idiot cuz you called everyone assholes. now were even I cba arguing more.

[thunderssound]

@TheNineLivez you are the only one who ansowred me so you are as******* sry :)

[TheNineLivez]

@thunderssound

k.

[thunderssound]

@TheNineLivez :D

[MaxterandKiwiKing]

R.I.P you two :}

[rachelle32366]

The way this video was worded made me think that the polar bear ate him or something...

[logik316]

@rachelle32366

Nah. People usually just die when they get old. This guy actually looked pretty old for his time, in my opinion.

[555vipgirl]

R.I.P to Knuts daddy a.k.a Thomas and Knut

i hav to admit though when i saw the title i thought it meant tht the polar bear killed him but still a heart attack is still a pretty bad way to go. may they rest in peace.

[susankohistany]

im depressed.....

[1843Sears]

At least he's with Knut in a better place now.:(

[ShutUpH00ker]

@1843Sears

The dinner plate.

[Theonegamefreak]

Geez.. 44? That's so young.

[trashbaghole]

@Theonegamefreak actually thats already old, people die early in this generation, my friend died at the age of 23.. got shot in the head but he survive, didnt last long though, he ate a banana cake with nuts, and choked to death.. what a shame.. i rather die with a bullet in the head, rather die choking on nuts..

[Theonegamefreak]

@trashbaghole I guess it depends on where you live in the world.

[andreyz94]

R.I.P to both of you from Romania

[LegendxWind]

According to Knut's keeper, Knut became a total monster when he got older. He would roar and throw tantrums if large crowds of people didn't come and see him and his keeper blamed himself for allowing him to get that way. It totally changed my view on Knut to know that, I thought he was just a cute little polar bear.

[tall32guy]

@LegendxWind He was, at one time. But small cute bears turn into BIG bears as they get older, just as cute little babies can turn into rebellious, smartass teenagers. LOL Cuteness only lasts for so long, in life. People seem to forget that fact with things like this.

[vickyboy96]

RIP to both of them <3

[Suzan4B]

May they both RIP together~~

[sharmuz19]

i never heard of this till now! its sad but now may they both rest in peace

[situasasian]

the. cub. is.so.cute =}

[herkittyness67]

rip..a wonderful person

[yutaka2325]

so sad



[kakapoopyshire]

"who hand-reared this polar" REARED???!

[YoshimiUrameshi]

@kakapoopyshire Hand-raised. Like child-rearing.

[jessewalla]

the bear died four months ago, the keeper died in 2008, they are together again,

[Vluxine]

Why are people acting as if the bear died as well? the video clearly states that the bears keeper died, not the bear.

[RealOmegamonX]

@Vluxine cuz the bear did die!

[Vluxine]

@RealOmegamonX Yeah i checked it out after watching this video, pretty darn sad.

[RealOmegamonX]

@Vluxine ikr :(

[Kamikazebutterfly]

@Vluxine The bear is also dead, too. :(

[northforge]

@Vluxine If you kept up on current events you would know the Knut (The Polar Bear) died several months ago...

[carolinairias]

And now Knut is dead, that is so sad, maybe he died of sadnes... :'(

[HattieLovesCattie]

@carolinairias The reports said he had brain swelling and drowned.He is with Thomas again.

[hiroyuki199901]

poor poor old man......

[flyfish31]

figure of speech dick head

[oomshlok]

He hand reared the polar bear?????? o_O

[YoshimiUrameshi]

@oomshlok As in raised the polar bear by himself.

Ever heard of "child-rearing"? Look it up.

[The8Animals8]

Knut must have mourned to death, couldn't live without his beloved keeper

[shaketilubreak]

I want hiiiim !!!!

[TrollogyExpert]

how the fuck you die from heartattack at the age of 44 O.o

Thats not c00l...

[TheEllaBrock]

@TrollogyExpert 1 out 2 people die due to heart and vascular related problems at some point.

[tall32guy]

@TrollogyExpert People a lot younger have died from them! It comes from unhealthy diet, and lack of physical activity, and or/smoking. Usually a combo of the three....

[lllHanzolll]

@tall32guy guess im next

[tall32guy]

@lllHanzolll You don't have to be if you adopt a healthy lifestyle, simple as that. Two of the best things you can do to prevent that is do aerobic exercise to get your heart rate up for at least a half hour everyday (an hour is better), and take fish and/or flax oil capsules. Those two things right there will do a lot to clearing plaque from your arteries and heart.

[noppe321]

at least there together again :)

[eternaldarkness623]

thats so sad :( knut and his keeper will be missed worldwide

[FriendsAndFriends321]

knut is so cute, it makes me so sad to think of little animals like that dying... :(

[MrGuitaristMatt]

Why is it that no one cared about the guy being dead, but it's a big deal to everyone about the bear?

I don't care about this bear dying anymore than the millions of other animals that die everyday...

[ILuvTrey4441]

illumnati murder Knut and Thomas..

BASTARDS!

[06pizza11]

@ILuvTrey4441 <<<<<<???? I DONT´ANDERSTAND THIS!!!!

[luv4uification]

[bryan5971]

the are now back to gether rip knut rip thomas dad and kid

[antayat]

So Knut went to the guys apartment and found him with Monika Lewinsky and decided to rip his head off and eat it. Then went back to his zoo and died a few days later?

[djmocok]

So Knut went to his care taker's apartment and then later on the care taker was found dead? And then Knut died not long after? I smell murder suicide here

[TheAndrewj96]

@djmocok Dude, the zookeeper died in late 2008. Knut died just a couple of weeks ago. How could the zookeeper have killed him if he was dead already? Get your facts straight.

[djmocok]

@TheAndrewj96 You just dont understand. stop being so ignorant.

[sethecx]

"newts daddy" ? doesnt the american know how to spell K?

Kurt Cobain was called Urt?

[naff2k7]

@sethecx never heard of silent letters? you don't pronounce the 'k' in 'knock' do you, or the k in 'known'

[sethecx]

@naff2k7

knut doesnt have silent k, lol

[naff2k7]

@sethecx oh right lol my bad

[TheJUNGLESURFER]
