One of my favorite documentaries. One watches the story of Timothy Treadwell with incredulity. It's a tragic story infused with a heart by means of intimately personal footage of and by this crazy/weird individual.

The real life story of a man, who wanted to show the world that bears are not the mindless killers many think. Althoug passionate about his adventure, it ends up in tragedy and reminds us, that bears are wild animals after all.
