Hmmmm, well, most zoom lenses do cut off a fair amount of light, requiring a longer exposure time which would not be a good idea in this case unless you had a VERY fast film. Plus, depending on the mechanism of the zoom, it might be hard to keep a moving figure in focus. I'd probably go with a 50mm lens, or maybe a fisheye.

Oh, and would I save him or take a piccy? Probably be a good idea to save him, if it didn't risk my own health, and if there was someone who could take him off neatly handcuffed for trial (not that it does much good, really).
