WATCH: Dirt biker's terrifyingly close call with mountain lion

THERE'S FEW things that phase dirt bikers when out on the trails...

A gruesome injury maybe, or a blown engine.

But normally, the local wildlife makes a run for it as soon as you fire your two stroke up. 

Not one brave cougar, however, who decided to play a game of target practice, and try to knock an unsuspecing rider from his Yamaha as he rode along a trail in East Oregon. 

Luckily, the guy escapes, but not without an excruciatingly near-miss...
