While not fun, this is the first time I've seen this dramatic photo, with the equally dramatic explanation - from HistoryDaily.org

"Mauled to death by a bear inside of his tent in 1996 [in Russia].

Discovered on his camera, this is the last photo Michio Hoshino would ever take."

The mark of a great photographer. Most folks would be shitting in their pants, trying to tear their way out of the back of the tent, or just freezing....but this dude grabbed his camera and took the shot. Cheers buddy, just awesome.
