Lots of people have tamed bears. It's hardly impossible. You just need a mild tempered bear and some patience and know how. It's not unlike training dogs.
Domesticating involves artificial selection. You systematically castrate or kill the more aggressive animals and let the more gentle reproduce, generation after generation after generation for hundred of years. That hasn't been done with bears yet.
Bruh, I have a lot of respect for you, assuming you are a whamen even. But this taming a bear shit is insane. It's clearly not the same as domesticating dogs.

My theory: European bears have coexisted with empathetic white humans for a long time. Therefore, European bears have evolved to be human-tolerant or dependent like dogs, but probably to a lesser extent.
One day that bear will be more hungry than usual. The man will welcome it with open arms only for the bear to rip his face off and gradually eat him over the next few days. He's gonna end up like Timothy Treadwell.

They're not dogs that have been domesticated over thousands of years. They're wild animals.
