I didn't even need to tell you that this happened in Russia, because where else would a bear chase a man down the sidewalk of a city with nearly 300,000 people?

Because this is Russia, the man seemed completely unfazed as this 400-pound murder machine approached him in the snow:

When the bear decided to go in for the kill, the broski finally stopped gabbing on his phone and sprinted for dear life.

Note again that this isn't in a forest. It's a major city in Western Siberia with hundreds of thousands of people.

There's a freaking Kia dealership in the background!

The man ran across the street and the bear followed before this bus driver flattened the critter:

Drivers in Russia DON'T MESS AROUND. That bus driver barely even tried to stop!

Unfortunately, because bears are nearly-invincible monstrosities of death, the thing got up and ran to find new victims.

A bunch of people at a bus stop got the heck outta there, except for this ONE DUDE WHO COULDN'T CARE LESS:

The bear eventually sauntered on its way.

My goodness.
