Witnesses who spoke to a local news outlet commended the man’s bravery. Hiker Steve Murrow, who was on the same trail that day, told the Seattle television station KIRO: I don’t think that kid would survive if it wasn’t for his dad jumping in. I mean, he’s a hero.

Nikki described her encounter with a buzzard during her walk in Havering Country Park as special but ended with a surprising 'dive-bomb' that left her scratched.

Roland Cherry, recounting his experience, stated, "I do remember thinking: Oh no, what a way to go I'm not ready to die. I thought this was it, because nobody survives hippo attacks." He expressed how he felt in the moment of the attack, sensing death was imminent, highlighting the usually fatal nature of such encounters.
