This was big news in Canada last week.

Anybody have a tip on how to get a jar off of your head?

The problem is, how to get the bear to understand.

This bear was luckier.

Bear goes on short joyride

We don't have bears.

Just mad dogs and Englishmen.

Just wondering why people are tossing jars the size of bear heads.

Wonder what was in them originally.

Pickled bear's heads?

Makes one think what might happen if human head size jars were stored outside of pubs.

Yes. They're already pickled before they get into the jar!

'The Man In The Jar' is a track by Sensational Alex Harvey Band.

seen the Heinz gherkin jar....about big enough to fit a thumb or the penis
of a 4'11 person.....if you grease it up of course....kevlar gloves in the emergency room now required....

Good news!


Bear cub stuck with head in a jar for 10 days is freed

I find gently tapping the jar with the handle of a knife after running it under hot water often causes the jar to release from the bear's head quite easily.

VC, my bear Jarhead Spoof has already entered space?

Or gently applying an electric shaver to the side of the glass.
The vibration should work it loose.

You have to be careful not to catch the bears fur though, once the jar falls away.
They can be tetchy buggers, these bears.
Especially ones with sore heads.............

Sounds like you are writing for George Lucas.

Here's the link to Jaggedone's story mentioned earlier:

Jarhead, the Florida bear is to become the first bear Astronaut to walk on the moon!

Thanks for that Gail.

That's JO all over.

Nuts. (In a lovely Eric Cantona way)

Perfectly sensible JO.

Residents of other planets would think astronauts landing are just humans with jars stuck on their heads.

five thumbs!

VC AND SKOOB, GLAD YOU SEE THE LOGIC (I WAS NEVER GOOD A SCIENCE EITHER)

Just did a story about Ron Artest getting a jar stuck on his head.

I think it has happened more than once.

Cleverest suggestion of the lot by far.
thanks for that. I'll remember next time I come across a bear with a jar on his head.

Actually came across one of the neighborhood cats one day with an empty plastic pea bag on it's head. it was sitting atop the fence and how she got up there without being able to see was amazing. You think getting a jar off a bear's head is tricky. Try getting a bag off a feral cat's head. Wasn't easy, but I did it and without a scratch.

Sometimes I even amaze myself.

Feral cats, I remember the caterwalling of them in heat. Not recommended as a ring-tone.

Another bear gets his head in a container story,
