Wabbits and Bears and Deer, Oh My!

So today I am at my grandparents house, we are going to be here till sunday and then we are hitting route 66 to get our kicks. ;)
We were driving through the wonderful Northern Wisconsin wilderness today and came upon a bunch of deer, a WABBIT, and a black bear!  It was probably about teenager age, at least it acted like one from the way it just stood there and looked at us while chewing on wildflowers.
We had pulled over on the side of the road for my grandma to take pictures of it, and this red pickup pulled up behind us. We just sat there biding our time and then the guy behind us gets out of his truck and starts walking up the hill, filming the bear on his iPhone.
He was creeping very carefully up the hill and then the bear looked up at him and he froze.
They had a bit of a staring contest and then the bear took one step towards him and........BAM!
The guy was hightailing it down all two feet of the hill and tripping over his own feet.  He fell at least twice. Okay, it would've been funnier if you were there, but I could practically hear the bear laughing at the guy. The bear took one last look at us and went back to his flowers, probably thinking how us humans need to get a life.
