I happened to see a hut not far away, so I made towards it. I got close to the hut with the lion almost on top of me, when he slipped for a third time. With my very last bit of strength, I ran into the hut and quickly closed the door in the lion\u2019s face\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s some story, Mike, I would have crapped in my pants\u201d, Brendan said.<\/p>\n<p>Mike replied, \u201cWell, what do you think the lion kept slipping on?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2389 size-full td-animation-stack-type2-2\" src=\"https:\/\/teachmelife.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 597px) 100vw, 597px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teachmelife.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2.png 597w, https:\/\/teachmelife.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2-232x300.png 232w, https:\/\/teachmelife.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2-325x420.png 325w\" alt=\"\" width=\"597\" height=\"772\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Two men were in a forest,<\/h2>\n<p>when a lion came roaring towards them.<\/p>\n<p>One of them throws sand into the lion\u2019s eyes and then runs.<\/p>\n<p>The second man stays, unmoved.<\/p>\n<p>The first man looks back and shouts, \u201cWhy are you not running?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second man replies,\u00a0<strong>\u201cWhy should I be running?
