This is barely believable. Amateur snowboarder Kelly Murphy was riding Hakuba 47 in central Japan on Saturday, April 9, oblivious to the fact that a bear was hot on her tail.
According to Murphy's YouTube channel, she only saw the animal when she watched back her selfie footage. Hmm ...
"OMG! I was going through my snowboarding videos and I found a bear chasing me!!! I nearly got eaten!!! Be careful people!!!"
The footage and the story are amazing, but are they real?
