A group of men were bear hunting in Virginia when the bear that they'd 
been chasing climbed a tree. They shot at the bear in the tree and it 
fell out of the tree, landing on top one of the hunters. Although rushed 
to hospital, the man who'd had the bear land on him died of his injuries.

Years ago, I heard a joke whose punch line was "Sometimes you get the 
bear but sometimes the bear gets YOU." I guess both are true in this 
case....

No disrespect to the family of the victim who was, apparently, a very 
nice guy.
