The Rock would be bad at persistence hunting, but it would be weird if he was so susceptible to persistence hunting. What incentive does he have to fatigue himself in this scenario? When it's you vs animal, the animal runs from you since if you catch it you kill it. The Rock could just chill and say bring it on. If you were sufficiently mobile and clever, maybe you could prevent him from reaching food and water until he's weak enough for you to attack.


Unfortunately the hunter might find himself with nowhere left to turn, stuck between the Rock and a hard place.


This punchline is so good I wonder if you and the grandparent poster coordinated this. Bravo.


Make him angry (by publicly confronting him about his juicing or something) and have him want to chase you down.


Juicing is gaining a lot of legitimacy lately. Not that it’s any better for you at this point but there are a lot of bodybuilders publicly talking about it. Its being normalized pretty rapidly which is a definitely not a good thing.


If you knew how to use a sling, and The Rock didn't, you could try to make The Rock chase you by staying out of his range and slinging rocks at him. Reverse persistence hunting.
