You are riding on a beautiful white horse. 

On  your right side is a drop off.   

On your left side are several ostriches being chased by a lion.     

In front of you are four large gazelles that  won't get out of your way and you can't seem to overtake them. 

Behind you is a stampede of horses. 

What must you do to get out of this highly dangerous situation?


Get off the merry-go-round!


Answer in invisible ink above!  Cheesy

Well, if you can't overtake the gazelles - why not just go forward? Huh?

You're not too far off!

A lot of people go around in circles with this one! Cheesy

It's best I think to just look at the answer by highlighting it with the mouse! Cheesy
