5 snakes. Nothing in a mall is stopping an 800lb killing machine. Even a fire door would be off the hinges in minutes.

With the snakes you could, in theory, just barricade yourself somewhere like a closet or office. Seal up the vents and doors and whatever and just chill.

Edit: the amount of posts in here that have "outrun or fight gorilla" as part of the plan is astounding. That explains that chart that showed 8% of Americans think they could fight a lion and win. There is no human alive that can 1v1 an adult lion and win.

Armed with a knife, i bet at least *one* person out of billions would get lucky and win against the lion.
