I heard that polar bears can't tilt their head, so if attacked by a polar bear, you should put your arms up

Polar bears, i heard, don't have the muscles to tilt their heads to eat their pray. So if you are attacked by a polar bear, bend your arms in front of your face because they can't tilt their heads to grab it. Is that true?

I don't think that you need to worry too much about being attacked by a polar bear
Dunno... try it then we'll know for sure. :)
No idea next time I see a polar bear I'll ask 'im. But if you were attacked I'd advise you run like hell.
I don't know. However, I don't lose sleep at night worrying about being attacked by Polar Bears, there are not many in Africa. Maybe if you lived on that Lost island it would be a problem.
I'll remember that next time I see a Polar bear lol I heard somet like that before, its the same with dogs i think.
I don't know if it's true but if i come along one while I'm out shopping,I'll remember what you said ;)
could they not just bite your stomach or some other part of your body that they could get to without tilting their heads?? Also, I wouldn't want to get into a fight with a polar bear. They have enough to worry about what with glabal warming destroying their habitat.... :o(
Totally bogus. Polar bear usually catch seal when they come up to take air trough a hole in the ice pack. The bear can catch it then. Their head has all the mobility it needs. Look at that video (very bloody) and notice how mobile the head is. And even if it was not, those claws on the paws could still turn you into hamburger in seconds flat.
good tip..i shall remember that next time i meet a polar bear.
if ever confronted with a polar bear you can be rest assured I will sh1t myself and forget anything that might possibly help me,
LOL! If you tick a polar bear off enough so that it wants to attack you, just consider yourself DEAD. It doesnt matter when it cant grab at one little piece of you. When it SWATS you with enough force that can tear the front end off a CAR - how do you think your body is going to handle it? When it's claws flay the skin off one of your limbs, what then? When it stands on its hind legs to bite your head off, now what? Just dont go around trying to do "bear tipping"... Unlike cows, they fight back...
I don't think I'd want to count on that. Luckily we don't get many polar bears along the costa blanca.
no, not true I'm afraid. And it wouldn't bite you first. It would swat you with its claws.
where did you hear that particular bit of survival knowledge? whom ever that was would be the weakest link in the arctic food chain.lol they can move thier heads any direction they want, and even if they couldn't, one swip of those claws can open up a metal camper like a tin can. polar bears are one of the few animals that actually think of humans as food and will habitually stalk them. there are bear deaths in the far north often, and a lot of time the person is partially eaten
