A cow in Poland that was facing slaughter made an escape worthy of an adventure movie epic.

Instead of getting into a truck headed for the slaughterhouse, the cow rammed a metal fence and charged toward a lake. When the farmer attempted to get the cow back, the cow broke a farm worker’s arm, the Independent reported.
