What would you do?

 

What would you do if this happens to you:

It is a Sunday night and you fall into a deep sleep and in a dream you encounter a ferocious looking lion and it gives you a chase. In your mad dash for dear life you come across a fast flowing river with strong waves and incidentally you can't swim. Behind you is the lion bearing down fast and furious and in front of you is the river.

What would you do being caught between the ''devil and the deep blue sea''?
