What would you do if, on a normal Monday morning, you set off on your way to work and encountered a kangaroo waiting for you? You take no time to run the other way. However, when a similar situation greeted an Aussie man, he thought it best to engage in a fistfight.

Video Of Man Engaging With A Fight With Kangaroo Goes Viral
Lance posted a video on Twitter showing a man being jumped by a full-grown kangaroo, leaving him with no choice but to fight back. The video is from the Australian state of Victoria, where the incident took place. The man identified as Cliff Des got attacked by a kangaroo and engaged with it for a six-minute-long tussle.
In a talk with Today, the man revealed that the wild kangaroo showed up when he went outside to his backyard to check why his dogs were barking uncontrollably. He shared, "It was a six-foot mad roo trying to rip my little dogs out of the yard."
Cliff continued, "I went near it, about 30 feet away, to try to shoo it away, but it didn't want to go away." At this point, Cliff tried to flee the scene, but the kangaroo kicked him down and stopped him from running away. This is where the video begins as it shows how Cliff had to wrestle the massive creature. Cliff found a wood stick, which he used to defend himself against the Roo. The 59-year-old pinned the animal and held it down.
Cliff did not escape the attack unscathed, as he was battered in multiple places after his run-in with the rabid Kangaroo. Even after getting attacked by the animal, Cliff was understanding as he said, "We built our roads over theirs. They're a beautiful animal." He shared his wisdom after encountering the fearful situation: "What I can take from the whole scenario is just don't go near them."
