Video: Bear Uses Balcony as Personal Gym

A homeowner in Colorado looked out his window this morning and spotted a bear using his deck to get in his morning “pump.”

The video he captured shows the bear hanging from his second floor balcony and doing a pull-up Rocky Balboa style; all that’s missing is the grey sweatshirt.

The bear latches onto the deck using its jaws to pull itself up, which is a pretty impressive display of athleticism! Somehow, these bears just keep finding themselves in peculiar situations, locked in cars, roaming through Rite Aid, now they’re using homes as personal gyms.

Start up the Rocky theme song and watch the video below:
