Obviously I plan on dying in the manliest way possible. Something that, even when the most badass person around hears it, they'll be all like "whoa." However, I also have to keep in mind that it has to be somewhat realistic. Sure, I'd love for my demise to come about as a result of being hurled into a black hole, only to be torn asunder by the intense forces at the Event Horizon. But there's like a 99.999% chance I won't even get to go into space in my lifetime, let alone anywhere close to a black hole (although there's hope that the Large Hadron Collider could seriously mess somebody up; I'll keep my fingers crossed on that one). And you know what? I don't even know if that would kill me. Sure, I know that light can't even escape a black hole. But do you know what can? Me.
That's why I'm opting for something that, even if it doesn't kill me, it will still be as badass as though it DID. I am going to fight a bear.
I'm not afraid of you bitch
Fighting a grizzly bear with my bare hands (see what I did there) would be epic. However, due to the fact that a bear has the advantages of weight, strength, muscle mass, claws capable of mauling my face off, and teeth, while the only things I would have to work with are adrenaline, the capability of formulating a plan, memory, and opposable thumbs, I am going to cede myself the ability to use a knife with a 3" blade. I don't feel too bad about it, because that tiny blade isn't even big enough to get all the way through its fur AND skin. I will NOT be using a gun, because that is weaksauce. Anybody can kill something with a gun.
The best part about this plan is that I might even survive this fight. HOW INSANE WOULD THAT BE?? Can you even imagine how jacked-up I would be on adrenaline? In fact, I think this is the only way I can truly prove my invincibility. Sure, my survival rate is 100%. Now. But we'll see how that holds up to a bear fight.

but Chris, what KIND of bear? they do come in all shapes and sizes, you know. Does it have to be a Grizzly? what about a CocaCola Bear? What size are you looking for? After all, stalking around outside a cave, waiting for the momma bear to give birth to a newborn infant bear only to immediately step on its still-soft head wouldn't be the manly accomplishment it sounds like you are looking for...
ReplyDeleteYou are right Jordan. However, it WOULD accomplish two very important tasks. First, it would be hilarious (but only in retrospect, because squashing an adorbs bear cub would be terrible at first). Second, it would anger the mother (Grizzly or Polar, whichever. They are both enormous). I would then fight this enormous bear to the death. This is all moot, because my plan to initiate a bear actually includes covering my chest with honey, in a classic "Heavy Weights" reenactment, enticing the bear via smell.
