So, a typical snail moves at around 0.0048 km/h, and are around 1 cm tall. The snail in the image appears to be more than 3-4 stories tall, let’s say 15 m. If the speed scales linearly with size, this snail could move at around 7.2 km/h.
So yeah, a very brisk walk for your life should just about keep you out of reach if you’re in decent shape.

They did the monster maths
It was an asymptomatic smash!
Or even asymptotic.
So, sauntering is out?
Saunter at your own peril.
I was thinking this might be the case, but didn’t want to do the math. Thank you.
Unless it’s a carnivorous snail
