Terrifying moment a mountain biker is chased by a BEAR as he rides through a forest

This is the terrifying moment a bear chased down a cyclist as they were riding along an isolated forest path.
Scary footage, filmed on a helmet camera, shows the animal running up to the rider as he pedals past through woodland in Malino Brdo, Slovakia.
After apparently pursuing him for a few moments, the bear turns round and slopes back into the trees.
But he then briefly reappears, causing the cyclist behind, Dusan Vinzik, to shout a warning.
Last week another bear gave scared an unsuspecting family.
The black bear made a trip out of some nearby woods to visit the home of a family who had just finished baking brownies in Avon, Connecticut in the US.
The mother said the huge mammal appeared on the decking and was banging at the back door, spending 30 minutes sniffing around before retreating back into the woods.
She said she believes the smell of her baking got the bear's attention and that it was just after a snack.
