#NBCNews #Yellowstone #Bison
That visitor threw that child right under the bus….. I mean, bison. Good grief.
Those people are idiots !!! There lucky the outcome was only a warning from that little fella. They infringed on jis space, and could of been so much worse.. concider that a blessing!!!!!
If he would of just kissed the bison on the lips beforehand it would of gonee so much better for them.
For the love of God, no common sense. People, people, people!!!
Omg. Ignoramus
Sad part about it is that it looks like the man injured was trying to get the family to get away from the animal and definitely was the only one who saved the child.
Dumber should have left it alone
😡When people will understand to respect wildlife and get away from them
These are nothing but idiots , who do they think they are? He deserved that, glad he’s ok, but lesson learned
Can’t humans leave things alone and just appreciate nature’s wild life. Stupid people are ruining things for the next generations to come.
Ppl are stupid leave the animal alone
Wake tf up people! How many of these have we seen of late. No sympathy for actively stupid.
He got what he ask for, their wild animals
My man took a horn for that child…now thats RESPECT
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes…
🤣🤣🤣🤣
When are these idiots gonna learn? Someone is gonna get seriously hurt or maybe even get themselves or a child killed. There needs to be harsher penalties/ punishment for those who are purposely getting close to the animals. Not just at Yellowstone but in every Nation Park and Animal Reserve.
When are these people going to respect these animals and leave them alone 😡
What is wrong with people there are signs all over
And he put the child in danger
he was only trying to save the kid I don’t understand why there isn’t barricades or fences or something built to keep things like this from happening
I 100 % agree that these people are stupid. But how do we know that it did not start walking up to them. My brother an I had on sneak up on us while we were walking down a trail in yellostone. I just wish they would show the whole story
What is wrong with people?!
People are so stupid
How many times do people have to see these videos before they understand to stand back and enjoy the beauty of the wilderness, they are not at a petting zoo. Thank God that little child was out of the way.
Too bad these people live.
Omg that man left the kid behind!!! What a coward!!!! That’s why they keep telling you to don’t get to close to wild animals!
I hope the bison is okay!😒🤦🏾♂️
I certainly hope that stupid family has been banned from all National Parks, arrested and fined. As well as CPS investigating the parents for endangering their child!
That bison was one second away from killing that kid. All of the adults with that kid should be in jail. Can you even imagine what that poor baby would have went through?? People are dumb and sometimes they just need to be locked up you know so innocent little children aren’t trampled by bison. 🦬 maybe they need to put some age restrictions in place since people just don’t get that these things arent cute, soft sweet animals that wont stab your guts out. Doesn’t matter the size, little human or big, guts will still come out if one charges and connects with you. Jail might open some eyes to their down right stupidity.
Too many obnoxious clueless tourists
Has anyone noticed the man is trying to get the child away from danger? The man in the hat that was beside the child doing whatever just selfishly just left the child standing there! He should not only be fined but put in jail!! Maybe some need to rewatch the clip.
I don’t get it.. what is wrong with pp. And with a little kid too… these are not pets, how many times.must pp be told??? He s lucky he not dead, that was just a warning…
Ignorant fool brought his small child too close and could have got him killed too.
It’s too bad that the man wasn’t killed
Those idiots Deserve that! Get way too close to Wild Animals so often this year? Then probably complain about it! Fine those People!
The parent of that child should be arrested for endangering the life of the child.. so close to trampling that child.. people that STUPID AND IGNORANT should not be allowed out if their own homes
God is good great save 👏 sir you’re a hero
Good for them . Stupid is as stupid does
I hope they are ok, but why is this even a thing?!?! These are MASSIVE two ton wild animals with HORNS and skulls specially built to RAM!!! Why do people think they can approach a giant wild animal? You’re in THEIR house, and they will protect their territory. I think it’s pure ignorance.
Stupid got taken but endangering that child is a criminal offense
People are such idiots, no common sense!🤦
The grandpa was a pos for leaving the child to fend for himself
Good that’s what you get for f****** with the wild animals leave them alone
You threatened hom
Looks to me like the guy who was gored by the bison was walking up to tell the guy in the white shirt to stop taunting that bison and then in an act of absolute heroism… saved that kids life by immediately placing himself between the child and the bison without hesitation! Dude is a hero! I hope his injuries were only minor, them little bison horns are dangerously sharp pointed!
It amazes me each time that these idiots harass these wild animals. I can not believe that that father had his son with him. That child could have been killed. Those people in should be fined and the child should be removed from his care.
Some people should not be parents.
Its not a petting zoo!!
WHY DO THESE IDOTS CONTINUE TO GET SO CLOSE TO THESE HUGE CREATURES????? THIS IS THEIR HOME!!!
Great….Bisons 1 STUPID HUMANS 0
people are so stupid
I don’t know, but it seems like some people have a death wish, when putting themselves in close proximity of wild animals, or don’t possess the greatest gift all humans were born with, which is five God given; common sense.
WHAT IN THE ACTUAL F*** IS WRONG WITH SOME PEOPLE!?!? Seriously!? What kind of incompetent person/PARENT would even think to bring their child anywhere near a bison!?!? Not only did that father almost get himself killed, he leaped out of the way without grabbing HIS CHILD!! He got out of the way LEAVING HIS VERY SMALL SON BEHIND!….and right in front of the bison! If it wasn’t for that other tourist (who they probably don’t even know) jumping in to save his child, then his child would probably be dead or in critical condition…..This seriously got me angry!
I watch these whenever I need a booster shot of self esteem— I always come away feeling like a genius.
I don’t know whose kid that is, but the gores man saved him from the bison. I agree with @crystalpoindex, CPS! How could anyone let – or God forbid – PUT their child in danger like that.
4 more Darwin Award nominees!
These poor bison. Leave them the fvck alone!!!!!
He ran and left the kid 😂😂😂
Someone needs to find out the identity of the coward in the hat who leaves the kid behind
He left the child! Coward!
Can’t fix stupid!
Gore season in effect
That is what you get. Stay away from the wild animals. You just never know.
Who leaves a child to get gored or trampled by a buffalo?
Natural Selection people natural selection. Let the idiots die and only the intelligent are left 🤣🤣🤣
That’s how you find out that your privilege isn’t for everybody……
YELLOW STONE IS GOING TO HAVE TO BAN THESE ANIMALS FROM VISITING THE PARK 👹 THEY RESPECT NO ONE’S SPACE 🌅 THEY PUT A FACE ON THE ANGLE GOD KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN 👹
WOW! I can’t believe he just abandoned the baby.
OMG!
The idiots could have gotten that kid killed!! Stupid stunt!!!!
I think these folks don’t think rules apply to them… that they are special. I wonder what their driving is like?
The fools had the nerve to place a child in danger along with their own stupid selves? Smh…
Is tourist season in full swing
Hold my sign
This is unbelievably stupid behavior of adults.
Play stupid games,you win stupid prizes.
Guys a Hero.
He acted quick and shielded a kid who wasnt even his own with his own body from a charging Bison most likely in the midst of warning these people to stay back.
You know why the bison did that?
‘CAUSE IT’S A BISON!!
Well, stupid people doing stupid stuff.
The parents/guardian of that child should be charged with child endangerment for having them anywhere around wild animals!
Not a play toy
How STUPID!!!!to try and have a touching experience
Wow that weak man, thew the kid basically
Some “people” should be banned from ever peopling again.
Mexicans 😎
Time to start shooting them. Herd needs to be thinned. Too domesticated.
They warning these stupid people, but they don’t listen.
And Grandpa needs his posterior KICKED TO THE MOON for being a chicken liver, running for his own life, & leaving that child to be trampled to death.You, jughead took the child up to that bison in the first place!!!UGH!!!!
Gored? Wtf
SMH why 🤔
How can ANYONE leave an Innocent Helpless child to fend for himself in front of a raging buffalo. If he’s related to child, CHARGES MUST BE FILED AGAINST HIM IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE HE DOES SOMETHING ELSE TO THE POOR KID.
The kid in the stranger run away. That kids like, “come on new dad, let’s go”.
No respect for wildlife keep a huge distance your camera can soom in
I was born in & raised to Respect ALL Wildlife in Montana & here’s a thought….
Maybe we should REQUIRE that EVERYONE visiting our parks, where “Common Sense” is mandatory…understand that if you are caught disrespecting our wildlife, you will
pay a $5,000 fine, the vehicle you came in (yours or not), will be sold, & all proceeds will go to the care of Montana Wildlife.
You will then spend 30 days in jail,
when & IF you are released from the hospital.
Sometimes Ya can’t fix stupid 🤔🤬
Well at least the kid is okay
Liberals trying to get the Bison to agree with their stupidity
I hope the one who left the kid is haunted and taunted for the rest of his days. He made no attempt to shield the kid just saved himself absolutely shameful.
While people
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. GOOD JOB
The person should be fined alot of money for attack. The bison defending his space. When will they learn. Maybe start fing a large amount and jail time.
This is what dumb looks like
It’s the visitors fault,there is no reason to be that close. Idiots like that ruin everything for ones who abide by the rules!! Ugh
