He has guts
SLOW MO for the win!!! makes it look so crazy…
I love the sound of that panicked audience after the guy tossed the piece of wood aside. He is a fucking badass.
just a split second from youtube to liveleak
Fuck this piece of wood
That is unnecessary and stupid
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
For some reason I thought he was going to prove that his arm could withstand a bear trap, so that was /r/unexpected
He punched it with his bear hands.
I wonder how many bear traps you need to punch until you can pull that off at his age.
Too old to care
IN THE ZONE.
That man is too old to be doing something that stupid
I don’t know where to either categorize this as Badass or Dumbass
Dang, Mutual/Boy Scouts is getting intense

Edit: added timestamp. It happens at 1:50.
I would never do this
The internet needs to learn to keep rolling. WTF? The reaction is the best part of that video and it just cuts out.
It’s like all the camera people see a butterfly as the action happens and either can’t hold the phone up straight or stop filming.
Was this filmed in the cultural Hall of a Mormon church??
Fun Fact! Maine is the only U.S. state that still permits the trapping of black bears for sport. The type of trap you see in this video is legal to use for that purpose.
r/nonononoyes would be proud
The video is at 30 FPS. He moved his hand away in 3 frames (0.1 sec), and the trap snapped closed in 5 frames (0.167 sec)
Just how does one discover that they have this ability in the first place?

That was a real butt-clencher.
I bet this would get more views if he actually failed
