Ladies, what would you do if you were picked up by a giant bird?

[baddayforfishin]

Say it's a nice day and you're taking a nice walk somewhere, when out of nowhere, a giant bird swoops down on you from above, grabs you by the arms with its claws, and lifts you right off the ground.

How do you react? Are you scared? Excited? Angry? Happy? Do you try to wriggle free?

(I'm writing a story where this happens to a female character, and in writing this part, I'm curious how other girls here would react in that situation.)

A bird, or giant owl? Either way, I would scream and try to flip myself up and kick them hard in the beak or throat, hard enough to startle them so they drop me. If the fall is too high and kills me all the better than being eaten and clawed to death in some giant birds nest. Yes, I'd be terrified, probably pee myself and or vomit. Who would be happy about that situation?

Try to reach for the gun I carry in my bra and shoot it in the head You've gotta die trying!

First will try to get the bird to let me go by wiggling around hard while the bird is still flying at a low level enough for me to not fall and dye tragically. But if we are too high up, I will reach for my phone, call 911, hoping the police will call a helicopter or give me some advice on what to do.

I enjoyed breathe123's answer. I need a gun for my bra too - these days. lol

I would assume some giant bird doesn't just appear without reports so I would put some repellent on me that makes me less than desirable for a giant bird to snatch me.

lol y'all are too prepared for this! I like these answers.

Maybe, but what if it managed to snatch you before any reports about it have dropped? How do you react to this?

Hit it with my huge monster purse that also holds my laptop most times and crack its skull...if at all possible to do and force it to release me from its talons.

I watched a podcast that talked about this. Imagine these prehistoric ****s chasing you to eat you. Would be terrifying!

Large eagles and large owls pick up cats and dogs. Prehistoric ones would be terrifying.

Joe Rogan, it was just a 10 minute or so part of the discussion with comedian Theo Von
