This is the dramatic moment an NHL player and his team mascot were charged by a bear while shooting a video in an Alaskan river.
Seattle Kraken forward John Hayden and their troll mascot Buoy were shooting a fishing segment when a bear emerged from the woods and charged at them, sending the crew running.
Fortunately it pulled up short. Hayden joked that the bear was interested in Buoy's unusual look.
Hayden, who was drafted in 2013, has been with the Kraken since 2022 and recently signed a two-year extension.

Hulk Hogan's widow hits back at 'misleading stories' after his daughter Brooke's shocking Scientology claim

Hulk Hogan 's widow, Sky Daily, has clapped back at her late husband's estranged daughter, Brooke Hogan, with a lengthy post after she made a shocking Scientology claim. Daily called Brooke's affirmation about the reason behind her husband's passing 'misleading stories' Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, died on July 24 from a cardiac arrest, according to a Florida medical examiner's office. The 71-year-old had previously had leukemia and atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm, the report from the District Six Medical Examiner also said. But in response to an Instagram post publicizing an article by radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge that reads 'Quick cremation without autopsy raises questions about Hulk Hogan's death', Hogan's daughter Brooke posted 'exactly'. Bubba's allegations include that Hogan's body has already been cremated, somebody could have injected something into the wrestler's dialysis port while he slept to induce a heart attack and questions around why an autopsy wasn't carried out. 'There are heartbreakingly misleading media stories created by faceless AI accounts or by people not close enough to truly know what was happening. Please be patient and know this: he was deeply loved, well cared for, and surrounded by that love until his very last moment,' Daily said on Instagram. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sky Daily Hogan (@ Bubba, whose real name is Todd Clem, also references the fact that Hogan's wife Sky Daily has links to Scientology and pointed out that Hogan has an estate that he claims to be worth in the region of $40million to $50m. Clem did not offer facts to substantiate his stunning claims, which stem from a report in the Tampa Bay Times from July 31 that says Hogan was 'doing therapy' when he collapsed at his home in Clearwater Beach on July 24. The report says paramedics told staff at Morton Plant Hospital that Hogan had just returned home from surgery and was 'currently waiting to start dialysis'. Clem claims nobody knew the wrestling icon was due to begin dialysis. In a bid to revive him, medics reportedly gave Hogan drugs that can treat excessive levels of potassium, a sign of kidney failure. These can lead to cardiac arrest. Hogan was also given two milligrams of Narcan, the drug that can quickly reverse opioid overdoses. There is no indication that Hogan had overdosed. However, The Tampa Bay Times also revealed the Pinellas County Medical Examiner did not perform an autopsy on Hogan because his death was not deemed to be suspicious.

Margot Robbie and Jay Hernandez reunite to celebrate Suicide Squad co-star Cara Delevingne's birthday

Margot Robbie and Jay Hernandez reunited in Los Angeles on Monday night as they stepped out to celebrate the birthday of their Suicide Squad co-star Cara Delevingne. The A-list duo was spotted arriving at Chateau Marmont, one of Hollywood's most exclusive venues, for an advance celebration ahead of Cara's 33rd birthday on August 12. Margot, 35, looked effortlessly chic in a stylish halter neck crop top paired with baggy black trousers and open-toed heels. The Barbie star wore her blonde hair in soft waves around her shoulders and completed the ensemble with a sleek black designer handbag. Walking closely beside her was Jay Hernandez, 47, who played El Diablo in the 2016 DC film. The actor cut a dapper figure in a black button-up dress shirt, teamed with dark jeans and sneakers. The pair appeared to be in high spirits as they entered the venue together arm-in-arm, smiling and chatting as they joined the festivities. Margot is one of Australia's most renowned actresses and after getting her big break on Neighbours in 2008, she soared to fame in Hollywood blockbusters, including The Wolf of Wall Street and Barbie. It comes as Margot and her film producer husband Tom Ackerley have been settling into parenthood after welcoming a son in October. Margot's pregnancy was made public in July and the couple enjoyed a romantic 'babymoon' to Sardinia, Italy, at the end of August last year. Tom and Margot first met in 2013 while working on Suite Française, where he was an assistant director, and she was in front of the camera. They cemented their relationship after moving in together with other friends in a four bed house in Clapham, South London, which according to Margot was the 'best days of my life'. The couple later tied the knot in 2016 and have been going strong ever since. They also have a working relationship and are both co-producers on a number of projects, including Hulu's Dollface, through their production company LuckyChap Entertainment. 'I was the ultimate single gal. The idea of relationships made me want to vomit,' Margot told Vogue in 2016. 'And then this crept up on me. We were friends for so long. I was always in love with him,' she said. 'But I thought, "Oh, he would never love me back. Don't make it weird." 'Don't be stupid and tell him that you like him. 'And then it happened, and I was like, of course we're together. This makes so much sense, the way nothing has ever made sense before.'

NFL confirms major loophole in new ban on smelling salts and other ammonia inhalants

NFL players gripping their contraband smelling salts like winning lottery tickets can relax: the league won't ban the inhalants. The players' union sent a memo to members clarifying the NFL ban, which strictly applies to teams providing smelling salts and any other ammonia inhalant during pregame activities, games and halftime on the sideline or in the locker rooms. Now NFL players will be out of pocket for the inhalants, which can cost around $6.50 per dose. 'The NFL Players Association is aware of the memo issued by the league Tuesday regarding the use of smelling salts and ammonia capsules,' read the memo, which was obtained by The Associated Press. 'We were not notified of this club policy change before the memo was sent out. To clarify, this policy does not prohibit player use of these substances, but rather it restricts clubs from providing or supplying them in any form. The NFL has confirmed this to us.' The league's recent edict on inhalants cited a Food and Drug Administration warning that such treatments could potentially mask symptoms of head trauma. But just try telling that to NFL players and even coaches, who use smelling salts for the rush of energy and mental stimulation they provide. While crashing an NFL Network broadcast at 49ers training camp in Santa Clara on Tuesday, San Francisco tight end George Kittle claimed the NFL was banning players from using stimulating inhalants. 'I honestly came here to air a grievance,' Kittle said. 'Our team got a memo today that [said] smelling salts and ammonia packets were made illegal in the NFL. 'I've been distraught all day,' he continued. ;I considered retirement. We have to figure out a middle ground. Somebody help me out.' Kittle was then asked how often he uses the stimulant, replying: 'I'm an every drive guy. I miss them already.' Smelling salts are also popular across multiple sports and with power lifters. Users are advised to take a 'whiff' of the product for enhanced alertness and energy. The stimulant has previously been endorsed by Joe Rogan , who spoke at length about smelling salts during a podcast episode three years ago. Rogan initially tried the product himself - along with comedian Theo Von - and struggled to deal with the intensity that they provided. However, Rogan encouraged his producer to try the stimulant. He said: 'You should take a hit! It's not that bad. It's not painful'. Rogan later posted a clip onto his Instagram with the caption: 'Our first experience with smelling salts. The great and powerful @theovon and I took a whiff of @jujimufu's good stuff. 'Shoutout to my friend @worlds_strongest_gay for the introduction to these fine olfactory stimulators. Holy s*** was that intense'. In a report by ESPN last year, Dr. Joseph Estwanik of the American College of Sports Medicine also warned of the dangers that the stimulant can cause. He explained: 'The claim is that smelling salts arouse your consciousness and focus, but how many of us in our daily lives think it's appropriate during a tough day at work to open a bottle of ammonia and start sniffing the fumes?' 'Ammonia's intended use is for cleaning. Giving a highly trained elite athlete ammonia to help them perform at their peak is like throwing a drowning man a cup of coffee.'
