There's a slight chance that the dagger skill, (r1 + x + away from the chest) will keep you alive and the man eater fails in devouring you. I do this with roughly every chest I come across in bbi and even if a pawn opens it, instinctively, I roll.

It might help but its not a 100% survival tactic.

Though as far as I've seen, they mainly spawn near water.
