[Would Jim have made it out of the jungle alive without Hiccup and Toothless to save him? Maybe. There's a chance he would have been able to recover the Amulet of Merlin if the stone beasts had missed their first strike, but there's also a good chance he would have been beast chow. The teen is very aware of the good timing his new friends had, and he looks around Hiccup at the angry creatures that look like a cross between hyenas, tigers, and the remains of an avalanche. They almost resemble a more animalistic troll, but he would have been warned if a troll with that much hate came after him.
He holds his breath as his rescuers square off against the pack, staring as the dragon chases the group with purple fire and manages to create an opening they dive through. He looks around to see the lead beast giving chase, slobbering and snapping at Toothless's tail as they manage to take off. He gives a little yelp as it gets close to its mark and they lurch forward, arms wrapping around Hiccup for support as they lift into the air.]
Oh, my God... That was close. And we're flying. Okay.
[It takes him a moment to fully digest that they escaped the danger.]

Whoo... Thanks. You saved my life back there.
