A man is standing on a rock in the middle of a circular lake of radius 1. There is a tiger on the shore of the lake that can run four times as fast you can swim, however the tiger can not swim. The tiger is hungry and always attempts to keep the distance between the two of you at a minimum.
How can you safely swim to shore?
... is it safe to assume that the 'man' is 'you'?
And if not, is the tiger minimizing the distance between the tiger and the man, or the tiger and you (or you and the man, somehow)?
umm...
