Not exactly what you expect while relaxing in a hot tub!

Wild bear attacks man relaxing in hot tub at Whistler ski resort
A wild black bear attacked a man relaxing in a hot tub at the Whistler ski resort in Canada - with a swift blow to the head, according to police.

According to the Telegraph, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Staff Sergeant Steve LeClair said in a statement that the 55-year-old man from British Columbia ""felt a heavy blow to the back of his head which propelled him forward in the hot tub".

The statement added that he then "turned around and found himself face to face with a black bear. He yelled at the bear and retreated inside".
