Transcript of the segment
What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Cyprus Mail.
Chip DarnellA bear got out of Melios Zoo in Cyprus, and the Cyprus Mail reports it has prompted calls for tougher inspections of the place.
Kenji MoonfieldWe don't have the escape video, so this is file footage, a bear from the archive who stayed exactly where he was told. Roll it.
Kenji MoonfieldLook at this, the head pops up out of the green water, very clean entrance. Now he's wading deeper, and that is confidence.
Chip DarnellI'm not invested. But he swims right across the frame and never lets his head go under.
Kenji MoonfieldRun it back, watch the head again. Chin just above the surface, every single angle. Elite.
Chip DarnellThat's discipline!
Kenji MoonfieldYou said you didn't care, Chip.
Chip DarnellViral Score, nine point four. He loses six tenths because he stayed in the water, and that's the one thing the other bear didn't.
