"Both victims reported they deployed bear spray, then dropped to the ground and played dead."

It's nice to see a story where the people did the right thing in the right situation...and that it had a relatively good ending for everyone involved.

It just always makes me cringe when I read a story about someone killed by a grizzly who tried to run. As I always remind people I hike with in grizzly country: Whatever you do, don't run!
