Experts say that if you're ever encountered by a bear you should lie down and play dead.  What if the bear is circling and charging at you?

It happened to one couple in Sweden who were out training their hunting dog when all of a sudden a large Scandanavian brown bear ran out of the woods at them.  The woman just barely dodged one such advance, but her husband took a different approach.  He faced the charging bear head on, threw his hands up in the air and let out the biggest roar he could muster.

Sounds insane (and it is), but it worked and scared the bear off.  We wouldn't recommend this tactic as I'm guessing it usually ends in the bear having a man sandwich.
