The Bear holding a Shark, also known as the Bear-Shark, is a cardboard cut-out of a bear standing on its hind legs, holding a shark above its head. The cut-out lurks behind the fence of Strong Badia. It is Strong Badia's "security countermeasure", as Strong Bad puts it. It scares The Cheat often, as when The Cheat touches the Tire, not only does he get an electric shock, but the Bear-Shark pops up. For reasons that are never really looked into, The Cheat seems to have a strong phobia of bears holding sharks. The Bear-Shark also plays the part of "headhunters" on Strong Bad's Riverquest Safariventure. It is "scared off" by firing a starting pistol in its general direction twice. It has been featured in a documentary detailing its roots in Strong Badian lore. The myth/legend originated as a British distance runner holding a fish with a 'fro wig, and through years of bad storytelling and the Telephone game, evolved into the Bear-Shark we know today. Apparently, Homestar and his "dog" Pom Pom were walking in the woods when they saw (and caught footage of) the "very scary monsterman" (who suspiciously had white feet with blue soles). Strong Sad did not believe these mysterious myths & legendary legends very much, and dismissed the Bear-Shark as either a weather balloon or a foreign exchange student.
