i noticed when i first saw this on a friends cell phone...(small screen low definition)... that the bison singled this poor guy out and went straight after him..... ..ignoring everybody else there...
... then later when i was able to see it on a higher definition tv i saw the guy had a slick bald head and a long zztop looking beard.......
... . wow.... i guess the buffalos don;t trust men with more hair on their face than they have on their head either...

Yes, this was actually my take when I first saw it, though I was not aware of the truck who passed between them actually was honking the horn. I just posted the clip because I knew that folks here would have some fun with it, lol. I really liked his admonition to the digital world about jumping to conclusions without all the facts.

From what I've seen, he's mainly right, and right after the fact, even most people on social media seemed to think grandpa was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The passing truck is what set the bison off, not grandpa.
Mitigating factor: The bull wallowing in the dirt says it was probably in rut. Which means it was extra aggressive, and this was not a good place to be for anyone.

and in other news an obama appointed judge ordered the bison be given
a lifetime supply of grain and sent home with a formal letter of apology...
meanwhile the grampa will face charges of failure to notify the FAA prior
to making an unauthorized flight of such a high elevation.....
