Gonna be honest, no idea how he's got the guts to do that; as I've heard, polar bears are the most powerful predators on earth. I'd satisfy myself to MAYBE throw some food to a side; but I'm still not entirely comfortable with the thought of any part of my person being outside my nice metal mobile shield.
