Two friends on a morning mountain bike ride 30 miles east of Seattle.

A couger jumped and attacked victim #1.

Victim #2 turned and started to run away.

The cougar saw Victim #2 and went after Victim #2.

Victim #1 saw his friend being pulled by the cougar. He got on his bike and started to bike away and survived to tell the tale.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't run. But I'm not sure I would do the right thing. Would I freeze for too long ? Perhaps using your bicycle somehow would have been wise. Just fall on the cougar and your friend with your bicycle. Freak the thing out enough to make it run. I know, it's easy to say what you would do. Who knows ?

Trump said he would have run after the shooter at Parkland, even if he was unarmed.
