Motorcycle helmets are purposefully not-hard. Odd comparison.

But they are pretty thick, since that means more impact-absorbing foam.

Why's the black bear so sad?

the grizzly is telling him "Ah, Jesus. I wish you could see this. Light's coming up. I've never seen a painting that captures the beauty of the ocean at a moment like this. I'm gonna make you rich, Bud Fox. Yeah. Rich enough, you can afford a girl like Darien. This is your wake-up call, pal. Go to work."

is the fear of this bear why we're so intent in melting the icecaps?

"I can take 'im. I got my AR-15. Hold my beer..."

"I don't know about this, Tommy..."

Don't puss out on me no..."

Crunch. Snap. Scream.

This is truer than you know. Well, the killing a polar bear part.

When Eskimos really got modern metallic cartridge firearms post WW2, they for some reason decided that the .223 Remington cartridge, (precursor of the 5.56 NATO round), was the best thing ever to hunt with. And you can be positive more than one polar bear got itself killed by the mommy of the the 5.56 NATO. And a bolt action rifle in .223 remains popular with them to this day.

The bear in the mural does not look tall enough to look in a second story window. Is that a young one?
