how long before we see his tragic death in the news, due to a freak "accident" with a lion?
Do you think that a lion could pass a GoPro that was still in one piece ?
It could be their next great marketing video.
Flashbacks to...
...probably end the same way.
I don't think those are 'wild' lions...they know him. Probably on an enclosed reserve and were possibly raised as cubs by him before being released into the reserve
If he did that with a 'wild' lion he'd be dead as would the camera man.
Given the frequency that my cat gouges me with her claws, or playfully bites me, I wouldn't be getting in range of even the friendliest lion!
I'll be absolutely honest - it looks like amazing fun.
Such a privilege to get that close and personal with such incredible animals.
HOWEVER; they are big animals that kill for a living. You've got to accept that they MAY end up hurting you or trying to eat you. I guess he's aware of the risks 😯
Siegfried and Roy did much more entertaining things with lions and that turned out fine
they were equally "tame".
In my opinion - Siegfried and Roy deserved everything they got.
Animals are ALWAYS best left in their natural habitat.
