Bear Caught On Video Nudging Oblivious Man Awake As He Naps By Pool

We all like to be woken gently from our slumber, which this man was. However, the wake-up call was certainly by an unexpected visitor.

In the footage, taken via a Ring doorbell, a small brown bear can be seen exploring a family’s garden and having a sip from their swimming pool.

Also in the garden was Matt Bette, who was having a snooze in his backyard when the furry intruder gently nudged him awake.

As Matt, completely oblivious to the bear, naps in his garden, the creature casually walks over to Matt’s sun-lounger, sniffs his foot and gently touches it with his paw.

After the polite-yet-unexpected awakening by the bear, Matt sits up and the bear runs off. He then grabs his phone, presumably conducting a text along the lines of, ‘You won’t believe what just happened to me’. I mean, there’s worse ways to be woken up.

Matt’s wife Dawn shared the hilarious video on Facebook with the caption, ‘Matt was a little startled yesterday while taking a rest by the pool’.
