When I was in high school I had a friend who actually caught a couple of deer. He was a big football player type and was able to run them down and catch them. These were young deer and where he was from the mature deer didn't get much bigger than a large dog.
Well anyway there were wild hogs on his father's farm and he decided he was going to catch one. He picked out a trail they used and climbed up in a tree over the trail. He lowered a rope with a noose in it to ground level. He reasoned that hogs don't look up so they wouldn't see anything and would run right through the noose and he would lasso one. What he didn't do was tie his end of the rope off to the tree. He decided to just hold on to the rope since the hogs weren't too big.
You can see where this is going can't you? A decent sized hog ran through the noose, he pulled back, the hog kept going like nothing was happening and my friend went flying off a limb about 10 to 12 feet up in the air. He hit square on his chest and fortunately for him all it did was knock the wind out of him. I don't think he ever found his rope but he did learn a lesson.
