Tim screams at Amy to “hit the bear,” and she can be heard telling him to “fight back” before she uses a frying pan to hit the bear. Tim’s screams turn into moans, and then Amy freaks out and lets out a series of horrifying screams. The bear stays creepily quiet the whole time. Even his growls could not be heard, and the recording ended there.

After the tragic incident, Machine, the bear, was tracked and shot. When the bear was killed, four trash bags full of human remains were found in its stomach. The 1,000-pound, 28-year-old male had trouble eating that season because of old age and broken teeth.

Willy says that Tim had tried to make friends with the bear before, but it “never happened.” Werner Herzog’s award-winning documentary The “Grizzly Man” was based on Tim’s life and this incident that happened in October 2003. It showed how Amie was scared of the bears and thought her boyfriend was “hellbent on destruction.”
She told Tim that this trip would be her last because she had a new job in California waiting for her. About the tape, Willy said, “Never listen to this,” and it is thought that he put it in a locked box with one of his friends.
