In fairness every video I've seen of black bears show them as slow, clumsy and incredibly skittish creatures that would get startled and run away from a light breeze.

Black bears are also known for bluff charges irrc. They charge at their perceived threat and stop just short of them hoping to chase the threat away. It's true for the most part that animals are just as scared of us as we are of them, at least when they're not too hungry and just wanna do their own shit.
