I've made plenty of practice deadfall and snare traps, so I know the concept.

The bear being dead didn't bother me, but rather the fact that there was so much of the show that was set-up, it felt to me that there might have been no need to kill the bear at all. Worse it made me suspect that someone went out and hunted a bear just so that they could place it in the deadfall. We didn't see it happen, and they very well could have killed the bear in any other number of ways.

To be fair the bear could have been killed in the deadfall as presented, but from the first moment they fudged the facts everything that followed became suspect to me. And the film was full of set-ups from start to finish.

I hope the Bear cub escape was the same so that the cub was not slowly strangled by the "cameraman's belt" as it grew, if it survived on its own at all.

I still enjoyed a lot of it, but it wasn't just three men in the bush filming whatever the day brought, no matter what they said.
