Because it all devolves down to the hero's statement of intent. If a hero is not doing things interesting things like you suggest, then he's not going to be getting anywhere in the engagement. And making use of 'terrain' like that is often done at some improvisational penalties.
Oh, and the physical risk? If the Heroe's busy trying to do the 'throw off cliff' thing, I am sure the werewolf will be happily trying to disembowel him...
