David Spragg was taking part in an expedition to the Himalayas. Led by a grizzled local guide, they ascended one of the less frequently climbed peaks. Roughly half way up the side of the mountain, one of the expeditions came across a set of large rabbit-like tracks in the snow.

"Giant Rabbit tracks," the guide said with a gruff voice as he passed them. "One thing you must know before we proceed: do not, under any circumstances, touch the rabbit."

So the expedition heeded his warning and continued to climb the slope. Night fell and the explorers set up their tents. In the dead of night, David awoke to the sound of his tent entrance unzipping. Half asleep he looked up to see an enormous eight-foot rabbit standing above him. Fearing his life, David jumped up and ran out of the tent, banging into the rabbit in the process. The rabbit, after being touched by David, let out a deafening howl and began to chase the explorer down the slope.

David ran away from the camp as quickly as his legs could take him. After rounding a corner, he looked behind him and saw the bounding form of the rabbit still chasing him.

So David continued to run and reached the bottom of the mountain in just two days. Exhausted, he paused to rest awhile. After just a few moments, the explorer began to hear the soft "thud, thud, thud" of rabbit feet on snow. He looked up the slope to see the rabbit still chasing him and only moments away.

David took off again, reaching a supply shack a couple of miles away. Once there, he quickly bought a mountain bike and pedaled his way to the nearest town, some 50 miles away. The journey took him several days over the rough terrain, and after his arrival he booked into a hotel to recuperate.

Two days later he left his hotel in order to book transportation back to England. As soon as he turned around though, he saw the form of the rabbit on the horizon, bounding toward him at great speed. Mortified by this sight, David hurriedly bought a car and drove it away from the village, all the way to Delhi. Once he arrived, he wasted no time getting onto the next plane to London.

After his arrival back in London, David went back to his London home for a while to recover and plan his next expedition. He had been there less than two weeks and was gazing out of a window, when he saw a familiar large, bounding, easter-like creature bouncing down his street -- the man couldn't believe it, somehow the rabbit had followed him to England!

David had little choice but to run away again. He used any means he could -- bike, car or foot -- to try to escape the rabbit, but each time he looked behind him, it was just moments before the rabbit came into view.

Eventually David made it all the way to Edinburgh, and from there ran into the open Scottish countryside. He continued to run but the rabbit just kept getting closer and closer, and in the end David could run no more.

With the rabbit less than a minute away from him, David finally stopped and turned around to face the oncoming creature. With the last of his strength, he stood up straight, as the rabbit caught up with him. The eight-foot tall rabbit towered above the man who could only stare in terror. The yeti extended his hand and poked the Englishman squarely in the chest with one long foot (yes a rabbits foot), and with a low rumbling voice, the rabbit began to speak:

"Tag! You're it!"
