Professor. Wroe, in his video, showed this picture of the skull of an Asiatic black bear that was killed by a tiger.

An Amur tiger with broken canines killed an Asiatic black bear by crushing its skull with the stubs of its canines, reported by Tkachenko. This highlights the devastating bite force of a tiger, and shows that tigers, with broken canines, can even kill bears by destroying their skull.

Some years ago, I also saw pictures of the skull of an Ussuri wild boar that was killed by a tiger who crushed the boar's skull with a bite. There's no doubt, that in some cases, tigers do kill bears and wild boars by crushing their skulls with a lethal bite.
