If two shirtless guys casually work out with a bear in the woods and there’s nobody there to film it, did it even happen?
Luckily we don’t need to answer that, as the bizarre moment was captured on video and has since gone viral.

In the clip, one man hangs from a branch doing leg raises while the other man punches him in the stomach. Fun! Behind them, a bear appears to be doing its own workout.
How about we take this to the next level?

It’s unclear where (or why) the clip was shot, but some commenters seem to think it’s from Alaska… or Tahoe… or Russia… or Wisconsin.
Here a few of the many, many responses:
I sense a lot of sexual frustration in this video

I’m telling people this is Florida

And herein lies the problem. I repeat myself – testosterone is toxic!

I don’t get some of the comments… why are a couple of guys working out (obviously for the camera so they could show off the bear) “toxic” or make them “sexually frustrated”?

All of the twitter comments shown were replies to a re-share of the video from @28delayslater, who shared it with the message “I’m not ready for this lifestyle”. So, I think these responses are as much about that, as about the video itself. Queerty just decided to maximize the confusion by cutting out the middleman—er, middlepost.
(I can also certainly understand how the bear bouncing a tree limb up and down like it’s a hyperactive 5-year-old on a hotel mattress could be construed as sexual tension, tho.)

You just don’t get ANYTHING! PERIOD!
Sad that by posting banal comments, you will get a reaction. It makes you feel wanted, important maybe even loved. NOT.
Only despised. Get back into your trailer.

WQA: Why are you getting so bent out of shape? You don’t like me, ignore me.
white-queer-african
@SamB et al, what I don’t like are your ridiculous comments. AND I will continue to respond to it. You know free speech!
Lol. Lol. Lol. I laugh at you not with you.

WQA isn’t correct, you regularly demonstrate how little you understand.
SamB
WQA: When you said…. I wasn’t loved…. it made me cry.
SamB
Cowboy: You are right and we finally agree: WQA isn’t correct.

It’s not Tahoe because the dumbshits would have shot the bear. Probably Russia and that’s probably a trained bear.

(and this dumbass site delays posting because it said it was duplicate. The other day it delayed posting because I post a reply on two different comments-very different. They really need to update their system.)

Oh look, it actually was a duplicate. Now you have two. Perhaps it’s not their system that’s the problem…

Happens to me all the time with this site. I just have to go back and delete the duplicates.
