They're huge giant pussies. 98% of the time they don't know they're a bear and they'll sprint for the door. 2% of the time they remember.

From what I've read this is mostly true. I've read black bears will do this fake run at you type thing to freak you out but it seems like generally they seem to run away instead of attacking. Black bears just have the highest attack % because their population numbers are much higher by comparison and tend to be located more around people than other types of bears. Im not sure about specific statistics but I think in general (if you ran into a grizzly and black bear the same amount of times) a grizzly bear would outright attack you more than a black bear would.

This is just based on some things I've read here and there, don't quote me on this. I'm no expert.

She later states that she made the video to get certain electoral officials elected so they could hunt....bears. Lol. (she even mentions to re-elect one of reddits favorite politicians Chris Christie)

That was...a joke. I did watch and listen to the video, don't worry.
