No. The two bears are just as dangerous. The bear is a vry unpredictable creature. It is also very powerful.
Many people survive Grizzly Bear attacks. This is mainly because the bear assumes the threat is not that major and it goes away. Some times they get confused and wander away after they attack. As well they can be scared by loud noises or retaliation of many sorts. Grizzly's may even skirt away by simply shouting at them.
However a Polar Bear rarely gets confused or scared away after they strike. Once a Polar Bear feels the threat is removed it will continue to maul and then eat you. Normally Polar Bears don't stop simply because you play dead. A grizzly will often stop the attack if it thinks you're dead or of no threat at all. Polar bears are generally in it for the kill.
Grizzly's very, very rarely actually "hunt" humans. They eat meat, just a polar bears do but humans are generally not on their list as prime prey for eating. A Polar Bear will, and are known to hunt humans. They will track you for miles if necessary. Humans are on their general menu if need be. Humans are almost never on a Grizzly's menu (although they will eat you if extremely hungry).
Naturally both bears are very deadly and can be ferocious. However the Polar Bear will go to YOU if it sees you in it's vicinity where as a Grizzly will normally go the other way.
Throw either a Grizzly or Polar bear cub's into the scenario and your odds of making it out in one piece decrease dramatically with either bear.
You would much rather have an encounter with a Grizzly Bear than a Polar Bear for the aforementioned reasons. Simply because you have a decent chance of coming out of a Grizzly attack at least "alive" where as the odds are stacked against you if you have an encounter with a Polar Bear.

∙ 12y agoI'd have to say the brown bear (and subspecies) is more dangerous. There bigger than black bears by up to 800 pounds or more. Im pretty sure brown bears are more defensive as well.
