Girl Snowboards Unaware of Bear Chase; Viral Video Sparks Debate

• A 2016 video of a girl snowboarding in Japan's Hakuba 47 ski resort has gone viral again, showing a bear chasing her.
• The girl, reportedly Kelly Murphy, was recording herself with a selfie stick, wearing headphones, and humming Rihanna's 'Work', completely oblivious to the danger.
• The bear appeared in and out of the frame behind her, but due to her speed and the slope, it eventually gave up the chase.
• Viewers were stunned and relieved she was safe, noting that panic could have led to an accident if she had seen the bear.
• Many have declared the video fake, citing inconsistent bear growl audio, lack of wind noise, and the presence of a grizzly bear type not common in Japan.
