In 1975, Pit Dernitz was eaten alive by a pack of lions. Dernitz left his vehicle to film a small pride of lions, when an unseen lion comes up from behind him. He attempts to fend off the lion, but is unsuccessful and then the rest of the pride joins in on the attack. This unfortunately led to his death as he was eaten alive, right in front of his family.

I'm surprised at how long it took for anyone to think to use a vehicle to chase the lions off.

Panic can block off the higher brain functions, but yes, driving directly over the victim right away would likely have saved him. Too bad no one could think of that at the time.
A thought that I kept having while watching was the coldness of the movie cameraman in continuing to focus on the great scoop he was getting rather than putting the camera down and considering ways to help.

Turning away from the feast to catch a shot of the crying baby on safari would be a good start.

That occurred to me while watching, but figured it could also be explained as an accidental shot while taking the camera from his eye in the exigency of the moment.
