Selfies — it has been speculated — kill more people each year than we realize. Now, footage taken by a woman in Japan shows how close she was to being the next selfie fatality.
And believe it or not, she almost recorded her own demise.
Kelly Murphy was snowboarding in Japan's Hakuba 47 Winter Sports Park near the city of Nagano when what is believed to have been an Asian black bear jumped out from behind the top of a mountain and began chasing her down the slope.

Well, sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you as the saying goes.

If the bear gets too noisy, just crank up those tunes.

Is it real, or is it Memorex Photoshop?
To: Washi
It is fake because if she were really a snowboarder she would be sitting on her butt and blocking the run.
Yes, I dislike snowboarders.

I second that!
All too many of them make runs icy, by scraping off the good snow.
Ski at Alta, they ban snowboarders.

Yes, I dislike snowboarders. Me too. That's why we love skiing at Deer Valley.
What's the difference between a snowboard and a vacuum cleaner?

The size of the dirtbag attached to it.

Yes, I skied Alta all the time back before the arthritis set in. Nice family place to ski.

I have no idea why snowboarders think it is OK to simply sit down in the middle of a run. That is like parking your car in the middle of the freeway to take a break. They are brain-damaged people.

It is more of a “Go-Pro” instead of a selfie...
