Video - potential brown out

A commenter at J-Walk linked to this video. It was implied the shot was "over the sow's head" (on purpose.) I find that hard to believe ... unless the bear was really MUCH further away than the video implies (which I am inclined to believe.)

Otherwise it looks to me like he missed the bear and decided not to shoot again once he saw it was bolting. Anyway, hitting a charging (at you,) zig-zagging bear with a pistol? I mcdoubt it.
