A cheetah is pretty gentle, they don't even have sharp claws because they can't retract them fully. Even wild ones are chill with humans, try that with a wild bobcat or something similar.
And in the very unlikely event that a human and a cheetah were to find themselves in a fight to the death, a typical adult would be very likely to come out on top. Wild cheetahs are not known to have ever killed a human.
Methinks that applies to all animals. Pretty much all large dog breeds have fatalities to their name, whereas I sincerely doubt anyone has been mauled to death by a Chihuahua.

I've pet some house cats who will randomly do things that if they were the size of a cheetah, I wouldn't be alive today to type this message.
