Watch As A Michigan Dirt Biker Hits A Black Bear [Video]

A fact of life about living in Michigan: wildlife is everywhere. So when you're riding in the woods at a high clip of speed, there's always a chance you may run into something.

A dirt biker near Baldwin did. Luckily, he lived to talk about it. And his friend caught the whole thing on his GoPro.

Lowell's Chris DeWeerdt and Andrew Finch were out riding near Baldwin when a black bear cub emerged from the right and clipped DeWeerdt's bike tire, causing him to tumble and the bear to run off into the woods (it appeared to be okay).

DeWeerdt admitted it was tough walking for days after the encounter, but he's recovered. Finch was wearing a GoPro and caught this footage of the incident. Be warned, when you hit a bear, your language contains bad words that start with 'F'.
