Don't run , because the bear will then see you are scared and attack you.

98.6% of all bears don't like dead animals and people. So once you see a bear looking at you, just fall down and the bear will come to you, smell you , and go away.

It is believed by many, that you play dead for the grizzly bear, fight and make as much noise as you can, at the black bear; To give yourself a good chance to live in a bear attack.

You play dead for brown bears. Brown bears (Grizzlies, Kodiaks etc.) Usually attack in self defense while black bear attacks are mostly predatory.
