    You might find this video interesting if only because it's not the type
    of police chase we're using to seeing in this century:

    Even in other eras, a chase would usually see both pursuer and pursued travelling by the same means....

    Little-known fact: in a 50-mile race against a horse, the human wins.

    We also win a 10-yard race, because we have the ability to sprint
    out of the gate. Horses, like most creatures, need a few strides
    to get up to full speed.

    Humans are actually kind of cool. Today's specimens are so weak
    and lame that it's easy to forget what fit humans can do.

    Lots of humans seem bent on reminding us what fits they can do.

    (No pun is beneath me...)
