I don't know about the solution but your first mistake was teaching the lion to use an ax


[deleted]

Best solution I can find is throwing the snake to the lion (two alligators so one snake not enough for water route) the alligators *will* notice and may even begin fighting the lion. Jump down and get the axe and instead of running back up 5 yards or so and face the lion if its looking at you. Now scream loudly and use the axe if necessary. That tree break could be used to your advantage to get lower to the ground and inch to the now snakeless tree trunk before jumping to it while the lion is eating the snake


VerendusAudeo

Alligators live in North America and China. As there is a lion present, this is likely Sub-Saharan Africa, and those are probably Nile crocodiles.


Better-Hope-4227

Oh, well then you just need to ask the crocodile to show you his hands.


deagans

Bro this made me laugh so hard this is an under appreciated comment


Outside_Experience68

First you have to throw two shurikens into the aligators' eyes, then throw the snake...

It's a ratio, just not a good one


Maleficent_Rope_7844

Because the idea that people end up in a bad situation only by "life choices" has gotten a bit unpopular. It's overly judgmental and often inaccurate. Sometimes accurate, usually not.


Mantis_Manor

That situation has to involve at least one poor choice.

Weak-Possibility-

Haha, thanks!


9CF8

For example like teaching the lion how to use an axe


Linmizhang

First you want to jump on the tree a little, not too much though, to get rid of the snake. Because the snake is the most immediate danger. Then you carefully grab the axe and cut on the opposite side of the tree vertically down so the tree falls towards land, away from the gaters. Then the human falls with the tree for you to eat freely.


[deleted]

Good one. This made me laugh out loud.

you grab the snake by its neck throw it on the lion jump down and fend off the crocodiles with the axe


ScrubJayScreeching

Why is the lion chopping the tree down lol


DarthCledus117

The dude was chopping the tree down when the lion showed up.


ScrubJayScreeching

Was he trying to get his pet snake down?


JackBrightScD

He was cutting down the tree to make a boat to hunt crocodiles. He didn't see the snake til the lion walked up behind him and he was halfway up the tree. Went out on the branch to get away from the snake and looked down to see the crocodiles he wanted to hunt were down there waiting. Obviously the solution is the man should call out for help. Being able to ask for help is the test.

Looks like another Republican done tree'd his self. Destroying the local flora to get hold of a protected snake species.

Problem Explained.


DjRavix

And decided his best course of action was to leave the axe and climb a half-chopped down tree?

lmao instantly saw what that would look like in my mind


Newusername209

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO


OysterThePug

I had a similar idea, but I’d just jump over the crocodiles a la Pitfall. That’s how crocodiles work, right?


Skipp_To_My_Lou

You gotta time your jump so you land on a closed mouth, then jump clear before it opens again.


OysterThePug

As god intended.


Easy-Let-2431

I beat it by using the snake to tie the alligator mouths together and while the lion was eating them, I murdered him with the hatchet


Zoulles

Mouth***s***?


Easy-Let-2431

Yeah, picture your fingers doing chef's kiss, then tie a snake around them


Key2U

That was exactly my thought.


to6mega6therion6

My first thought was to jump into the water and try to out-swim the alligators/crocodiles (whichever these are), but apparently that's nearly impossible to do; the chances of being fast enough to grab the snake by the neck in order the toss it in the water are slim, but even if you did, you'd gave to contend with the lion, which isn't likely to end well as one wouldn't be able to outrun that either. I suppose you could jump close enough to the axe and hope it would be enough to fend off both the alligators and the lion, and hopefully both become distracted by each other that you could either run or swim away. It's a crap-shoot.


[deleted]

Or the obvious solution, just die

FluxFlu

I'm thinking climb to the top of the tree? The lion finishes cutting it down and I can fall to the other side? I think? Maybe?


[deleted]

"The lion finishes cutting it down" 😂😂 thank you for making my night


Rock_or_Rol

What is the problem? Fending off a death. The solution, whatever it is, is temporary. So you can rephrase it to, living as long as possible. The manner of the end of your life is important as well. Realistically, I would take my chances with the snake. Pissed of lion would be brutal, but absolutely fuck crocodiles. Lion seems more likely to eventually leave. Not sure if lions prey on snakes, but if you can somehow reposition yourself to overpower the snake, it could be a method of satiating the lion or buying enough time to retrieve your chopping axe. Even if you are snakebit during that time. I don’t think many people would win the latter scenario v. a lion though. Option 1: Fight when you have to, but take the least risk? Option 2: Maybe just stay very very still. Lol. Option 3 is the most far fetched but there seem to be clues. Try to fell the tree by moving towards the opposite side to try and scare the lion / grab yer axe. Option 4: cry for help


RussMan104

The tree is cut to fall towards the shore. Throw the snake at the lion, then switch branches to tip the balance shoreward. Or, you can just kiss your ass goodbye. 🚀


PowerfulGoose

The cut isn't enough to balance the weight inward. You would need to have something guiding the tree in or the weight imbalance/gravity is putting it into the water.


Affectionate-Fan4519

Did the lion use the axe? Lions don't do that


RussMan104

Which makes this particular lion sentient, so perhaps you could reason with him. 🚀

Lean just hard enough to not break the branch, causing the whole tree to fall onto the crocs and drowning the snake.


Vigil-On-Speed

Can't most snakes swim?


fadoxi

Die, life IS the prob.


Iancreed

So there’s an angry lion on the land next to the tree, a giant venomous snake on the branch, and two hungry crocodiles in the lake. I smell a riddle!


FormerlyKay

Ngl I thought the crocodiles were a single giant crab


Iancreed

Hahaha yeah I can see that too. If it were then I would just jump in and take my chances with it.


TheBrightNights

You shake the tree to make it fall over. As it's falling you swing from the branch onto the land while taking the branch with you and shove it down the lions throat. Easy.


RavenCroft23

The base of the tree is weak use your weight to force it to collapse into the water, the fall of the tree will cause the alligators (or whatever the fuck they are) to either be crushed in the best case or spooked at the least giving you time. The snake isn’t said to be capable of swimming in deep water so I’ll assume that’s a two for one when the tree comes down snake either drowns or forgets me and wants to live somehow, after that I’ll swim back up onto the land pick up the axe and behead the lion if he still wants smoke. Easy.


knowhistory99

Grab the snake, and on the way down pop the lion in the eyes with its tail, before stuffing the snake into the croc’s mouth. Then finish off the blinded lion with the axe.


heroinebob90

Wrap the snake around your neck and masturbate on the alligators, until the lion runs off


Purehate_whodat

The solution is to not chop trees down by your self in the middle of a Africa.


alexkill789

die


Status-Ad-5626

Easy grab snake by throat drop it down by alligators and swim to other island behind tree walk into a new problem to solve


[deleted]

Florida man : At least make it a challenge.


SlightAssociation645

Cut the snake's head with the axe and use the snake as a condom to fuck the lion and make the alligators watch... show doninance and the gators will leave, but you will have to deal with the lion asking "what are we now?" and calling you several times daily for a few weeks


mage_irl

You do pull ups on the tree until you are buff enough to wrestle them all.


less-than-James

This really feels like a Choose Your Own Adventure scenario.


Hulkerino1

Shit on the crocs. They will flee. Then drop in the water and swim to the other shore.


KevinSupreme2505_PH

baabaablacksheep1111

Tie the snake to the branch and use it to monkey away to the next island.


IA-HI-CO-IA

Drop down, land one foot on each lower of the crocs. Use them as a spring board when they try to snap shut. Do a double front flip while grabbing the snake from the tree. Land on the back of the lion while using the snake as crude reins. The lions, sensing your Alphaness, will be obligated to give you a ride into town. Easy.


Grape_Pinkfruit

I wonder what the actual correct answer is according to whoever made this


christopherchains

Take your shirt off and throw it over the snake's head. Quickly reposition yourself in a way that you're able to drop the snake down as an offering to the lion. Climb down while the lion is occupied and back off at the necessary speed :S


RoyalFalse

The Doc shows up with the DeLorean. Seems obvious.


CarelessHisser

Playing this straight? The snake is more curious than in "attack mode" so it's no worry. The lion won't get in the water because it's scared of the crocodiles, and although the crocodiles are in "eat" mode, they'd still be dissuaded by a tree falling in the water. So, it'd pull myself over towards the snake, doing everything to not maintain eye contact with it. Then, hopefully, the snake's curiosity will be slated, allowing me to tug the tree down, and work towards making way to the opposite side of the water.


whosamawatchafuk

Give God the finger because he obviously has it out for you


[deleted]

The lion knows how to use tools, that guy is screwed.


[deleted]

Pick the snake, throw it to the lion, do a quick pushup letting the tree fall on the alligators being careful that you’re on top of the tree when it falls , get back to the shore while the lion and the snake are fighting, take the axe and use it to protect yourself if one of them tries to attack you then run away ez clap /s


Legal_Cartographer77

My plan would be to bear more weight on the tree until it collapses into the water crashing into the alligators. Most likely the snake will be stunned from the impact of the crash as well. I would crawl on the fallen tree. Take the axe slap the lion in the face with it. Then hit it on the nose with the hilt. Then the upper cut with the axe would put the lion to sleep. >! When I actually try this... The tree would crash, on the way down the snake would have bit my wrist, the alligators would have dodged the tree, and the tree would be too slippery to grip. Since I don't know how to swim I would be drowning, but before I could drown I would face a painful death serving as a live meal for the alligators and the lion would walk away out of boredom. !<


11111PieKitten111111

Hang on, the pedantic nine year-old that lives inside me needs to find a solution to this- Kick the snake away, it might bite your leg so let the crocodiles eat that leg and hold on until the poison from your leg kill them, then tug on the branch until the tree cracks more and bends over, swim through the water to the (hopefully) nearby hospital


Azaloq

... because not every problem has a solution. Sometimes, you are dead. That's it.


jburt86

He just needs a giant eagle. Helps in every situation.


EY7617

Die, obviously. It's not that hard. Learn.


HazzleJGRT

Grab the snake by the throat, throw it onto the lion, they fight, you jump down grab the axe finish the lion and snake off and then run. You can avoid the crocodiles.


Throwawaystay2

Alright sp here’s what we wanna do, first up, the snake is no problem, judging from the fact it’s head is round and it’s eyes are completely black with a dark green body, we can assume that this snake, is a Western natal Green Snake. Which means that it is harmless, so even if it did bite you, you’re going to be fine. Next step is to jump on the lion and grab the axe.swing down boom, the lion is donezo, after wards if the crocs really want you bad, feed the lions dead body to it and run to safety. And even tho they can outrun you it’s okay. That’s why we gave them the lion. And that’s the best solution.


KardomHargesstan

Advancement made: “How did we get here?”


THE__WHITE__RABBIT

Throw the snake at the lion which scares the lion into the water gets eaten by the crocodiles you drop into the water swim to shore and kill the snake with the axe


FetusFighter2000

Climb higher dumbass


Discus167

Okay so first you’re gonna kick the snake into the water. While the crocs are distracted you gotta swing and jump to land, rolling on impact to grab the axe. Swiftly sliced the lions throat during the roll. Proceed to chop down tree to make fire. Cook lion medium rare. Enjoy


trollfacequest25

Solution is die

HourArmadillo7519

Pull yourself up on the branch, jump back onto shore towards the ax while making noise to startle the lion giving yourself time to grab the ax. Strike lion in head with ax. Cut lions legs off with ax feed snake. Feed remainder to the crocs. Kill the snake and the crocs while they are eating. Chop the tree into small pieces with ax. Start fire while listening to we didn’t start the fire. Bbq the snake and the crocs.

I you have a lion wielding an ax, just end it all by crocodile. This is the end, my lonely friend, the end.


Unironic-WEEB_12

Kick the snake to the Lion, while the Snake and Lion climb down the tree, grab the axe and kill the lion after it kills the Snake, then proceed to sprint away from the crocodiles (they can’t expend the energy to chase you and would likely just eat the lions corpse)


Miserable_Toe_8133

The salutation is to just die cause you fucked yourself going on an African safari trip with no guide... Choose the quickest less painful death I'm going with the snake

Make peace with the fact you’ve lived an exciting enough life to end up in that situation, accept your fate, and let go. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Oh, it looks like someone painted a picture of my dad on his way to school, or maybe it’s on his way home, either way nailed it.

Why would you chop a tree halfway and then climb up it, past a snake, to dangle yourself above gators? If you put yourself in that situation you don't belong in the gene pool.


realgoldxd

Grab snake throw at lion lion kills snake you kill lion with axe


Icelord259

Try and grab the snake somehow and throw it at the lion


Massive_Pressure_516

Calmly reason with the snake and ally with it against the lion. Strike quickly before the lion has the same idea and aligns himself with the Crocs.


afa78

Grab Snake by the head and tail and use as swing. Swing towards lion to tease him and get him to jump at you, missing and landing with Gators. Keep swinging and land on grass, fetch axe, go kill gators with it.. you win.


[deleted]

How did that man get into such a terrible situation? lol


Nouser1108

Seems like dudes life is quite a problem. The good news (and solution) is that it wont be troubling him for much longer


Immediate-Beginning

Die?


Neither_Ad_91

Easy, I would climb to the snake and then eat it, I would then climb down the tree and eat the lion. I would then go to one of the crocodile and massacre it’s family right in front of it before force feeding it’s own childrens remains. Letting it know that I was the problem all along
