12 year old Norwegian, Hans Jørgen Olsen tells at Nettavisen website that he faced an enraged moose with his 10 year old sister in the woods. Skills, which Olsen learned from the World of Warcraft game became useful.According to Nettavisen.no website, the enraged moose attacked the girl first, but Hans used the skills that he had learned from the Massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) called World of Warcraft.
"When you hit level 30, you learn a new skill called 'feign death'. Thats what I did, I lay down as if I was dead, and then the moose lost interest in me," says Hans at Nettavisen.no website.

Hans exploited these skills by taunting the moose repeatedly with a stick, which gave his sister the opportunity to escape. After that the moose focused attention to Hans, but he started to feign death when moose lost interest. The moose kicked him a few times thinking that if he was dead."When you hit level 30, you learn a new skill called 'feign death'.

I did some additional research, and according to newspaper that first reported about the moose attack (Adressa.no), the two children didn't see the moose until they were too close for Hans Jørgen to get away. This newspaper has no reference to World of Warcraft, so I assume that Nettavisen.no's journalist must have asked how he came up with playing dead.
So in the original story, there is no forest, sticks or kicks, and the moose didn't attack the sister first, it just ran towards the two of them. Still a sweet story though, as it ended well - apart from for the moose, as the authorities in the area are now considering putting it to sleep.
for example parents(dont remember where) left theyr baby at home and went to cafe play wow ... after some hours baby died bcs smother himself.
another story : kid jumped from the window bcs thinks that hes on mount or sth...
etc.
Well done kiddo!
Instead of SHUTUP FOOL, they will have Van Damme saying that.
