Screams as Russian singer left 'fearing for life' after bear charges at picnic
Russian singer Gulnaz Asaeva, 27, has told how a bear, thought to be tame, was brought to a birthday picnic as a prank but then it became aggressive and attacked them A singer is heard screaming in fear as a bear rampaged during a birthday picnic, leaving a man covered in blood in a prank that went badly wrong. The angry brown bear is seen on the video running through long grass towards Gulnaz Asaeva, 27, and her group. She is heard shouting 'Bear'. A man's voice then says: 'Quiet, take the camera away,' and another voice is urging: 'Run away.' Gulnaz continues in panic: 'Ahhh! It's a bear!' before there are more screams of terror. She posted a photo of her manager and concert director Vadim Fathinurov, 37, in an ambulance and covered in blood after he was attacked by the bear. Amid concern from fans over the incident, the singer later claimed the bear attack was a prank that went badly wrong. It comes after an octopus 'climbed out of aquarium tank' and 'tries to eat boy, 6,' in front of his mum. Gulnaz said: "We decided to shoot a video, went to a location with my whole team. The scenario of the video was that each of the participants prepares a prank in advance, but no one knows about this prank. As a result, our concert director Vadim decided to invite a tame bear to the location where we were filming. 'Naturally, when we saw the bear, we were all just in shock…. We screamed, squealed, because these were just indescribable emotions.' She confessed: 'I thought that we were living the last seconds of our lives, because the bear was running straight at us. But then Vadim calmed us all down. He said: 'Look, this is a tame bear' 'He extended his hand to [the bear] in order to calm us down. And the bear just bit him at that moment.' The ambulance was called and he was given first aid. Asaeva was marking the birthday of her husband Vildan Shamsutdinov, 27, a singer with the stage name Villi, when the bear attacked in Russian region Bashkortostan. She is famous for her heartfelt Tatar‑language and Russian songs as well as dynamic live shows. It comes after a tourist was dragged into a ravine and killed by a bear after posing for a selfie with its cub. Omar Farang Zin was mauled on the roadside before being dragged 260ft down a steep hill into a forest in Romania, last month. Police and emergency services said that after an hour of searching for him, the 38-year-old's lifeless body was found. Just one day before the tragic incident, the motorcyclist had posted a series of pictures on Facebook of a large bear which appeared to be standing extremely close to him. Omar had also shared a selfie posing with a bear cub. Omar, who came from Samarate near Milan, Italy, was travelling on the Transfagarasan mountain road. He was seen allegedly trying to feed a bear in an area with signposts warning not to do so. Arge Mountain Rescue spokesperson Ion Snduloiu said: "He was attacked by a female bear and dragged close to the water. "Those who know the place know that there is approximately 80 metres difference in gradient. The animal was so aggressive that it carried him to within 10 to 15 metres from the shore. "Unfortunately, he was already dead when we arrived. The injuries were extremely severe. Even though he was wearing a helmet and full protective gear, it wasn't enough." The mayor's office later stated that the bear had been shot dead by hunters.

Skechers skewered for adding secret Apple AirTag compartment to kids' sneakers — have we reached peak obsessive parenting?
Helicopter parenting just got a hardware upgrade. Skechers has launched a new kids' sneaker line — 'Find My Skechers' — with a covert feature that's raising eyebrows: a hidden compartment under the insole, tailor-made for an Apple AirTag. This unexpected feature allows for 'easy tracking and comfort of mind,' the brand's product page boasts. 'Hidden compartment under the heel of the insole has a screw-tight cover that comfortably hides the AirTag. Apple AirTag and screwdriver not included.' 4 On paper, it's a smart fix for misplaced sneakers. In reality? It's a stealthy way to keep tabs on the kiddos — igniting a digital dust-up over whether it's parental peace of mind or toddler-tailgating gone too far. SKETCHERS From the outside, these Skechers are indistinguishable from the regular line — no branding hints at the AirTag hiding inside. The compartment's screw-on lid keeps the tracker secure, safe from curious toddlers (and would-be pocket thieves). Sizes run from toddlers to eight-year-olds, with prices starting at $52 — AirTag sold separately. In theory, it's a clever way for parents to locate lost shoes. In practice? It's a way to track their kids without them knowing — sparking an online brawl over whether this is parental peace of mind or pint-sized surveillance. In a video posted to TikTok by @brutamerica showing the new sneakers, commenters were split between safety and Big Brother fears. 'This could end badly or good,' one wrote. Another argued, 'There's too many kids that go missing without a trace to worry about normalizing tracking above the safety factor. If the world was a safer place we can talk about the problems of normalizing tracking all day… but it's far too dangerous to worry about that.' 'This is actually smart,' chimed in someone else. 4 Reactions ranged from praise for the safety benefits — especially for kids with special needs — to blunt rejections and warnings that the shoes veer into creepy, Big Brother territory. SKETCHERS 'I'm more worried abt the AirTag's ability to handle all the normal kid activities (running, jumping, etc) while not breaking… damage to the AirTag could really hurt a kid if it's in their shoe,' pointed out someone else. 4 From the outside, these Skechers look like any other pair, but a screw‑lid compartment hidden inside the insole secures an AirTag, with sizes from toddlers to eight‑year‑olds starting at $52 — tracker sold separately. SKETCHERS Skechers isn't the first brand to embrace AirTag accessorizing, but the shoes may be the most discreet option yet. Still, critics see them as a step toward normalizing constant tracking — until we're all wearing GPS-ready clothing by default. Or, as one Bluesky user summed up the mood: 'Why have relationships when you can have dictatorship?' 4 Some social media users are seeing lifesaving potential with the new Sketchers, while other critics are fearing that this new feature normalizes constant surveillance. Gulnaz – In other words: We've gone from 'Be home by dinner' to 'I know exactly where you are — and so do your shoes.' As previously reported by The Post, rising parental anxiety has already fueled 'next-level helicopter parents' — some tracking their college-age kids, calling RAs and even contacting professors. Experts warn that this constant monitoring, however well-intentioned, can stunt independence and resilience, making it harder for young adults to navigate life on their own.
