Drinking around bears- never a good idea

A 23-year old Serb was found dead and half-eaten in the bear cage of Belgrade Zoo at the weekend during the annual beer festival.

The man was found naked, with his clothes lying intact inside the cage. Two adult bears, Masha and Misha, had dragged the body to their feeding corner and reacted angrily when keepers tried to recover it.

"There's a good chance he was drunk or drugged. Only an idiot would jump into the bear cage," zoo director Vuk Bojovic told Reuters.

Local media reported that police found several mobile phones inside the cage, as well as bricks, stones and beer cans.
Gotta love the director's quote. 2007 Darwin award Top 5 finalist, for sure.

"The man was found naked, with his clothes lying intact inside the cage."

Two options here.

Either the guy thought it wasn't enough to just jump into a bear cage, but decided that, to really drive the point home that he was fucking crazy, he should probably take his clothes off when he got down there, or the bears politely and neatly stripped him, as they're picky eaters and wanted it to be clear that their quarrel was with this guy, specifically, not the society that produced him and his clothes.

Maybe the guy was drinking Genaro's. I hear bears are for Genaros when they aren't sucking the heads off fish...

What a grizzly scene that must have been. It would have been a bit too much for me to bear. The fact that he was bear naked pushes it over the top (at least he wasn't wearing a teddy). I wonder if it was Smokey in there, thus rendering the bears more difficult to distinguish from non-bear entities? This really reminds me of that guy who climbed over The Edge of the bear cage at the zoo because he thought the bears were calling him in. Like Yogi Berra said, "it's like Deja Vu all over again."

Ok, that's about all of the bear puns, so we've got that angle covered. Continue!

My guess is the dude had just watched "Super Troopers" and thought it would be great to re-enact the bear fucking scene. It could have happened to anyone.

Sure his clothes were left intact but with all that blood splashing around he was probably left with a rasbeary bearet, you know the kind you'd buy from a second hand store?

This story is difficult for me to digest, primarily because I was attacked by a bear when I was on holiday with my family as a child. Been bear, done that, I say.

Obviously he saw that Veronica had fallen into the bear pit and he had to jump in and save her. Only he didn't have the Channel 4 news team backing him up. Oh and it was supposed to be the porn version so that's why he was butt-nekkid.

The story makes a hell of a lot more sense when you take into account that this was the man's wife:

Stephen Colbert is going to flip over this.

I just don't understand why people are having such a hard time saying what this really was all about: Inter-species love gone wrong. Horribly wrong. The guy jumped into the cage intending to spend some quality time with Ms.Lady Bear, but didn't expect the husband to be there. Obviously, the missus had to act quick and play along when Mr.Bear went crazy and started eating away the poor fella. Such a shame. Such. A. Shame.

Were there golden arches over the bear cage? "Food, Folks and the North American Grizzly".

What if they trace the cell phones and find out that the bears were using them to order anonymous take-out from MANKIND?

Is it just me, or does this sound like some kind of Russian mob killing of some sort? Like someone deliberately pushed into the cage, rather than stumbling in by themselves?

Definitely a mob hit. But not the Russian mob.
