Could you beat a grizzly bear in an unarmed fight?

Stake reported that 2.75% of Americans, about 6.84 million, believe they could beat a grizzly unarmed, surpassing Serbia's population, as per Journalistic.org.
Stake surveyed 2,000 US sports fans aged 16+, specifically targeting UFC/MMA fans to gauge how combat-sport viewers imagine fights with animals.
Almost one in five say they could beat a mouse, with lower confidence for house cats and medium-sized dogs, while men and women doubt beating a kangaroo despite its 975 psi bite and 8,800 lb-ft/s swipe.
Experts point to grizzly bear strength — 1,600 psi bite and 25,200 lb-ft/s paw swipe — when urging caution, while content creator screenshothq's TikTok clips fueled public bravado and Minnesota DNR's Andy Tri warned `Don't do this.`
The trend shows a decline from four years earlier even as youthful bravado persists, with the share saying they could beat a grizzly dropping from about 6% to just under 3%, and 16–24-year-olds showing the highest confidence.
