Norwegian teen escapes pack of wolves with cell phone
A 13-year-old Norweigan boy enjoys listening to Creed, and his passion for the 90’s rock band proved to do more than just provide entertainment.

Walter Eikrem was walking home from school earlier this week when he found himself surrounded by a pack of wolves, according to the Russian website Zvuki.ru. The four angry beasts had surrounded Eikrem and in a flash, he unplugged his headphones, cranked up the volume and began blasting Creed’s Overcome.

The animals, distracted and possibly disturbed by the song, turned and trotted away, leaving the boy unharmed.

3. Yikes!
I didn't catch that one. But I'm not in the habit of correcting other people's headlines.

5. That Kid Should Be Arrested for Being Cruel to Animals
No animal should be subjected to listen to Creed. Where's PETA when you need them?

8. A few years ago the wolf pop in Norway was in the low double digits
I'm glad to hear they are coming back (Sure it is good the kid didn't get hurt, but I bet they were just trying to save him from his music)

9. Are wolved with cell phones more dangerous than those without?

I thought they communicated vocally, maybe they're texting nowadays.

11. Creed'll do that to anyone. Canine or human, they run in fear.
I still can't believe that's not an Onion piece.
