We pull off to the side of this, almost like an ATV trail, maybe 10 feet wide that leads away from the village.

And we're just going to sit there on our rucksacks and joke around, enjoy the morning sun while they attack the village.

And then we'll get out of there.

So we're sitting there on that ATV trail, joking around.

My leg's propped up.

And one side of the trail is a steep drop off, not quite cliff, but over a 45 degree angle, really rough terrain, thick woods.

And the other side is like a small rolling hill up with a little clearing between trees and stuff.

And we're sitting there and we hear just sticks breaking, coming up this real steep embankment.

And we're like, the Slovenians cannot be coming to attack us right now.

There's no way any person would even dare to climb up this.

So the medic takes a few steps forward so he can see down this embankment.

It's only 10 feet across maybe.

And he's met coming over the top just by this massive mountain bear.

Oh, a bear!

The biggest bear I've ever seen in my entire life.

Less than 10 feet from us, where we're sitting.

It was the loudest growl you've ever heard.

A belting roar.

No, all training rounds, simulation.

And even if we could, the fight or flight instinct, we all chose flight right away.
