I expect that works if the lion is not really hungry. Lions are known to be in that part of CA due to the terrain and the small towns in the area. I recall a woman tracked by a mountain lion a bit north of Auburn, CA who was killed and her body hidden for later consumption over 20 years ago. I have been to Coloma at the mill site. At the time lions were not on my mind at all.

Raising your arms as the brothers did, to look larger and more threatening, is a tactic that sometimes works. Raising your arms and actually being more threatening with a loaded rifle or large caliber hand gun can be more effective in mountain lion or bear country. Sad, but true.
