He went in here: Where this camera is located there is a viewing area in a wooden structure, he climbed down and went into the water. The problem is that where the 3 bears are in this photo there is a path for the bears coming from up river. While he was taking pictures in the area just to the right of the first foam is. Imagine if some bears coming from up river would suddenly appear, he would have nowhere to go and if there was a female that was skitty because of her cubs and it doesn't take much of bear power to kill him and if that happened one of the larger boars busy fishing might have been curious of the commotion and maybe start to eat him?

Sometimes these bears do bad things, here's a boar (814 Lurch) killing one of 435's spring cubs. He later met his match and was either dead by disease or killed by another male bear.
here is his skull and parts of the skeleton. He could have died of an aneurysm or a heart attack then eaten by other bears.
Lastly but more lightly is a NFL Safety player getting surprised by a black bear and her cub.
