Woman Vs. Bear. (The Internet Wins.)
Hysterical woman attempts to have a rational conversation with bear gnawing her kayak.

If she buys another kayak, I'm going to find out where she lives and break it myself. She's just that annoying. You go, bear!

I...uh...just let the damn bear have your kayak, dumb ass.
Otherwise, you need a large caliber weapon, preferably a rifle. But she's probably a hoplophobe So let the damn bear have your kayak.
Remember: nature will try to kill you. As I like to tell people visiting me in Florida, most of our flora and fauna will try to bite you, stab you, sting you, or eat you.
And that's just the humans...

Maybe she should have offered it a sandwich instead of pepper spraying it.
Except for the pepper spray, it sounds like she's trying to deal with the bear in the same way hoplophobic progressives think crime victims should deal with violent assailants.

Little fella probably thought he was doing everyone a favor by keeping her from getting away and annoying anyone else.

She's lucky the bear didn't kill her. Going there without a gun is a Darwin award looking for the spot marked X.

Yea, this is funny; but, seriously, what on earth was she doing this trip solo for?
Here's her original Youtube link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU5cMZymSr0
She went kayaking solo; planned to hike solo, and was lucky that she didn't end up dead.
For crying out loud! She is in bear country!
That being said, she did the right thing by making some noise; unfortunately, "whiney" isn't the kind of noise to scare a bear off. Especially since it most likely smelled "food" on her kayak.
An air horn or even a loud yell would have worked better. (just don't anger the bear; like it is easy to know beforehand if the noise will scare or make the bear angry?)
And pepper spray? Well, it is good that she was somewhat prepared; but, bear spray only works if you hit the critter directly in the face so that it stings its eyes. Otherwise, it is just an slightly annoying hissing sound to the bear. (and, at least, she didn't think the "bear spray" was to be used like "bug spray" and spray it on herself.)
Yep, this is funny, and good for her to laugh at herself by posting it (at least I hope that is why she posted it) and, even better, for coming out of this encounter with a bear unhurt and alive.
P.S. some of her comments are funny: "its plastic, not food" or "Its September, you should be asleep." And, maybe she is having a good laugh at herself. She certainly handled a bear encounter, alone, better than I would have.

I laughed so hard watching this, I thought I was going to detach a rib.
You go into bear country, meet a bear, and think you're going to do - what? Reason with it? Persuade it to change its ways? The naivete of this woman went beyond surprising, all the way to risible.
The only way to make a bear stop doing something it has decided to do involves the use of firearms or comparable violence. They don't respond to your plaintive expressions of your disappointment at their behavior - at all. This woman sounds like she's talking to an unruly toddler - a poor approach when dealing with something that can tear you limb from limb.
She's lucky that her complete failure to grasp the reality of the human-bear dynamic didn't end a lot worse for her than it did.

The old story:
"As your guide, I have to tell you about encounters with bears out here in Yellowstone. You will find on your desk a can of pepper spray and some bells to make just enough noise to drive a bear off.
Now, it's important to know what kind of bear is in your area. Here at Yellowstone, we have black bears and grizzly bears. If you find their scat - where they took a dump - you can tell what kind of bear is near you.
Black bear scat has nuts, snail shells and seeds in it. Grizzly bear scat has little bells in it and smells like pepper spray."

I thought it was Barrack Obama telling the Russian Bear, Vladimir Putin, to leave Georgia, Ukraine and Syria.

Bill O Rights; that is funny, except Barry wouldn't even know what a kayak is.
Hey, maybe that was Michelle talking to the bear while Barry hide in the closet in the back of the cabin?
