Bamse is the protagonist from the Swedish cartoons created by the late Rune Andréasson. He is a brown bear who becomes "the worlds strongest bear" after eating Thunder Honey (Dunderhonung in Swedish) made by his grandmother. Every one (Besides his daughters Nalle-Maja and Brumma and his pet bee Surre) gets stomach ache for three days if they eat it. Bamse is married to Brummelisa and have four children with her; Nalle-Maja, Teddy, Brum (who are triplets) and the youngest being Brumma who is on the Autism spectrum. They're living in a house made of stone at the Hills (Kullarna in Swedish). His best friends are Lille Skutt and Skalman.
He was voiced by Peter Haber who also portrayed Martin Beck in the current Beck movies in the first three movies and Rolf Lassgård in the fourth movie onwards.
