Old Bear's Paw



Igor Vorzhbitzyn was on a fishing trip in the Yakutia Republic of northern Russia when a large brown bear decided to attack him. Igor told the Croatian Times, “I had just parked my car and was walking to the spot I’d marked out when there was a tremendous impact on my back and the bear was on top of me.” A moment later his cell phone went off, and the sound startled the bear and saved the fisherman’s life. “I couldn’t believe my luck when the phone went off and he fled,” said Vorzhbitzyn, who received serious wounds to his head, arms and torso. His granddaughter had changed the ringtone on his cell phone shortly before the fishing trip, “as a joke.” Now whenever someone calls him, his phone plays the Justin Beiber song, Baby. Apparently having a really annoying ringtone isn’t always a bad thing.
