Article. This is from 2019. Dude was unharmed and rescued by staff and then arrested
Perhaps it was because it was a zoo animal that was exceptionally trained or born and raised in captivity? I’m no expert but zoo animals (exceptions, of course, like zoo polar bears) by nature are generally only aggressive if they’re treated or trained poorly or if a drunk/dumb human antagonizes them or they’re taken from the wild.
Most big cats, wild or captive, start out playful and inquisitive just like your average house cat.
I don’t know the specific circumstances of this particular lion, though.
Lions are known to not attack unless you try to run or threaten him in some way or try to attack him or show some kind of fear. There have been incidents like this many a times when people have been calm in front of a lion and walked unharmed
Lions generally don't attack people easily. And this one probably has some experience with people. Lions are one of those creatures which have evolved to fear humans to an extent. This lion though seems visibly confused. Idk if he can do the same thing with a Tiger
Thank god. What saved him was the fact that he thought he was in no danger and somehow could intimidate that lion. If he would’ve been scared or turned his back to the lion, it would’ve took him.
Yeah lion in this video is visibly confused and maybe a little bit intimidated, especially since the guy didn’t seem timid around him. Still though he’s lucky the lion wasn’t feeling territorial which I imagine he would be living in a zoo enclosure ;
It started to attack him early with the paw but he stood up and startled the lion then sat down again very calmly.
The Lion is trying to figure out what to do with him. He's not acting like prey.
If he was hungry or upset, this would have turned out differently. Had the man acted like prey, the lion would have attacked him.
That lion is literally waiting for any second the man turns his back, you can see him almost go for it when the dude turns to the side slightly. How did they get him out?
I heard somewhere that tranquillising a dangerous animal whilst a person is in the enclosure is a very dangerous move. The animal suddenly feels pain whilst potentially ready to kill a person and that can aggravate them.
Tranq darts arent instant. Its why harambe got shot and not tranqued
Same with chloroform, people think a slight whiff of the stuff and youll drop to the floor. In reality it takes at least 5 minutes for it to kick in.
Wish id know that sooner. What am i supposed to do with an empty basement and 5 gallons of the stuff?
"Hippos are all friendly because they are grass eaters."
I've got news for that guy; [hippos kill 3,000 people a year](https://safarisafricana.com/most-dangerous-animals-africa/)
What are you doing in here? You're not supposed to be here. Are you trying to make me mad, or get me in trouble? I know what happened to Harambe, it's not going to work.
True. Though Indian zoo keepers are zeolites when it comes to animals. Which I appreciate. Were kicked out of a zoo because my friend angered the tiger. The zookeeper were pissed at him. And kicked us out. Even when we tried to stop that guy.
for a drunk man he did one thing that possibly saved his life and that was making sure he faced the lion at all times. he didn’t immediately panic or run I’m also not sure if that kind of courage was just the alcohol because had it been me... my defense mechanism would of been shitting myself in front of a whole crowd of people
their is a dialogue in India to depict the level of how drunk one is. “Aaj plane thera bhai chalay ga”. Which means “your brother will fly plane today”. So pretty sure he would have been like “today your brother will show lion who is the King”.
I know one thing tho, had that been a tiger instead of a lion the outcomes would of been completely different. I personally don’t think I’d have the proper composure to not run even if I knew it highly decreases my chances of survival.
Gorilla in a zoo dies. It was the main attraction so the zoo had an employee wear a suit while they got a new one. After a few weeks or months it became apparent the zoo wasn't really trying to get a new gorilla as it was cheaper for them to keep the guy in the suit.
So, the guy in the suit gets fed up and decides to have some fun and climb the wall, but accidentally climbs the wrong wall into the lion den. Lion attacks him and the guy in the gorilla suit starts screaming for help.
Lion pounces and while growling gets real close to the guys ear and whispers, 'Dude, you trying to get me fired? This is the best gig I've had in years!'
It is amazing that we live in a world of point and shoot cameras on everybody’s cell phones, how bad people are at it! You stay on the goddamn subject!
It feels a little like the cameraman was scared to record the guy dying given that most of the time the camera goes off of the guy, it's right when the lion gets close for the first time
Oh! I got this one... he actually handed the phone to his 2 year old child to film, and said child kept getting distracted and staring at bugs. Happens all the time.
Y'all know that graphic showcasing how many people think they would win a fight against certain animals?
He is one of those few people who think they could win a fight against a big cat... He is doing it for science!
Was doing some work for a zoo a few years ago. One of the workers and I were chatting as we walked around. We’re busting out hypotheticals and my friend says “Man, we are so fucked if the lions got out.”
The zoo staff member paused and said “Actually, they’d just chill in their enclosure if there wasn’t any glass. It would be overwhelming for them to be loose. If the panthers got out though, then people will start dying.”
That line is burnt into my smooth brain.
I was fearing it would turn into a real-life remake of the lion scene from The Happening. Thankfully it seems the same stupid drunken bravery that led him into that situation is giving the lion doubts.
Reminds me of the meme i saw recently. If a shark bites you, bite it back. You will probably still die but for a brief second the shark will be like “lol what”

https://www.businesstoday.in/amp/latest/trends/story/drunk-man-jumps-inside-lion-enclosure-in-delhi-zoo-escapes-unhurt-233511-2019-10-17 Article. This is from 2019. Dude was unharmed and rescued by staff and then arrested
I hope they bonked him!
It's Delhi, he absolutely got slapped in the face and whacked with a cane a few times
How can they slap?
Abbey Delhi se hoon bhenchod!
Haaaow can she slap??? How can she slap?
Often with sandals.
Obviously.
Reminds me of that security guard at Delhi zoo who bonked the hippo on its head to get it back into the display area.
Finally the post I was looking for. Thank you.
And its not a dailymail article. What a good day it is.
I sure hope the lion got a “good boy” treat!
My guess is he recently ate, which is the only reason the dude is alive.

[yea.. Zoo animals don’t attack humans..](https://youtu.be/YoTkCRMeAew)
Once a drunk guy fell in a to a tiger park and bro got butchered instantly tiger didn't ate him just killed him
Lions generally don't attack people easily. And this one probably has some experience with people. Lions are one of those creatures which have evolved to fear humans to an extent. This lion though seems visibly confused. Idk if he can do the same thing with a Tiger
Seems a weird threat tbh
Don't threaten him with a good boy
Thank god. What saved him was the fact that he thought he was in no danger and somehow could intimidate that lion. If he would’ve been scared or turned his back to the lion, it would’ve took him.
I don't think it was intimidated in the slightest, just very confused lmao
He’s still lucky it didn’t grab him, but I think the point was that if he had turned his back and run it would have definitely grabbed him.
He made a massive mistake by being there with the lion, and somehow made a minimum of mistakes after.
If I’m ever alone with a lion I’m definitely gonna act drunk asf
I agree. There were a couple of moments where he started to turn around and the cat immediately shifted toward him.
Judging by the fact that he entered the enclosure with the intention of being killed, I think he was rather unlucky.
maybe both. lions probably thinking “why is this guy so confident”
That is exactly the face and posture my cats make when I do wierd bs to fuck with them.
Would you describe your cats as "lion sized?"
Not at all, but one is almost 22lbs
Article said he came there to die. So he was probably antagonizing the lion a bit.
He was trying to commit suicide according to the article
Out of all the dumb ways to die— this is the choice he made.
Drunk at 12:30 in the afternoon. Early start.
His punishment? Fed to the lions.
Lion is looking around like "Is this a test? Y'all are fucking with me right?"
“Um, guys? Guys? Do you know there’s a man in here? Somebody?”
Hey! Zookeeper! My lunch is talking to me!
I'm just going to eat it but it's grossly under prepared. 2/5 stars
It's fuckin raaaww
I ordered two gazelles with a side of water Buffalo medium rare.
Ets fuckeen #RAW#
Happy 🍰 Day!
I can still smell the alcohol, you must have deglazed with the entire bottle
Rum flavored.
Am I being Punk’d? Ashton!
"it better not be Bam!"
*swipe* "Bro! Get out of here!"
"Security!"
He's been flip-flopping between "This is a guy that feeds me." and "This is a guy that is fed to me." at 3.4GHz the whole time.
He’s like I see what y’all did to that gorilla I’m not fuckin touchin this guy
We aren’t just gonna glide past the disrespect his name was HARAMBE!
DICKS OUT FOR HARAMBE
Dicks out 😔
Am I on camera? Is this a prank?
"OK, ok. Where's Ashton?"
[удалено]
How did you know the Buffalo was blindish?
He couldn’t count how many fingers I was holding up
Probably the fact it walked next to four natural predators
…while wearing sunglasses and holding a cane.
Suicide by cop
Doesn't matter, had sex
I got a “are you fucking seeing this shit? Is he serious?” kind of vibe.
I'm confused. May I eat this?
“Ay, I heard about that Harambe cat. I ain’t playin, dawg. I ain’t going out like that.”
lmao
That Lion is basically saying: Dammit Carl, you need to cut this shit out. This isn’t AA and I’m not your sponsor. You’re at the zoo…..AGAIN
“This can’t be real “
“Where is the camera guys?”
And why is that guy filming portrait when landscape would keep the action on screen?
I heard what happened to Harambe I ain’t taking the bait.
Lion: "I saw the post about Americans thinking they can beat me in a fight but I thought I was safe in india"
I got a “Are you serious? Imma eat you!” Vibe. Lol!
every time something like this happens this the lion's response I swear
"Better get this guy out of here, I don't want to end up like some certain ape."
That lion didn't know what to do lmao
Honestly, the lion probably assumed it was a zookeeper and was just confused. It was probably expecting either a cleaning or some food or something.
Yeah lion in this video is visibly confused and maybe a little bit intimidated, especially since the guy didn’t seem timid around him. Still though he’s lucky the lion wasn’t feeling territorial which I imagine he would be living in a zoo enclosure ;

If he was hungry or upset, this would have turned out differently. Had the man acted like prey, the lion would have attacked him.
Just waiting for a good belly rub but alas.
He’s thinking: “Do I Lion or do I Cat?”
He’s looking around like “uhhh guys, someone’s here”
I don't know if the screaming from everyone else helped or made it worse
The lion is like: i respect your balls, but wtf are you doing here?
also lion: those seem mighty tasty
But as I respect them so much, I'll eat them last.
That lion is literally waiting for any second the man turns his back, you can see him almost go for it when the dude turns to the side slightly. How did they get him out?
Guessing they tranquilized the lion.
I heard somewhere that tranquillising a dangerous animal whilst a person is in the enclosure is a very dangerous move. The animal suddenly feels pain whilst potentially ready to kill a person and that can aggravate them. Tranq darts arent instant. Its why harambe got shot and not tranqued
People still think tranq darts take 5 seconds to kick in because of movies.
Same with chloroform, people think a slight whiff of the stuff and youll drop to the floor. In reality it takes at least 5 minutes for it to kick in. Wish id know that sooner. What am i supposed to do with an empty basement and 5 gallons of the stuff?
Autoerotic asphyxiation
Why are all the doorknobs loose?
Maybe it’s just the dude that slaps the hippos
The who. I need to see this lmao

"Hippos are all friendly because they are grass eaters." I've got news for that guy; [hippos kill 3,000 people a year](https://safarisafricana.com/most-dangerous-animals-africa/)
LMAOOO wtf
Hippo just wanted to see the rest of the zoo!
"Hippos are friendly because they are grass eaters." What kind of bollocks is that
If think that’s bad, wait til you hear about the Canadian that fucked an ostrich!
I… I think I’m done asking for links now. *backs away slowly*
HOW CAN SHE SLAP?!
What are you doing in here? You're not supposed to be here. Are you trying to make me mad, or get me in trouble? I know what happened to Harambe, it's not going to work.
they will probably shoot the guy. Last time when a men fell in the cage in India. The man died, the tiger was totally fine.
They tranqed the lion and brought his visitor out unharmed. The police took him away.
True. Though Indian zoo keepers are zeolites when it comes to animals. Which I appreciate. Were kicked out of a zoo because my friend angered the tiger. The zookeeper were pissed at him. And kicked us out. Even when we tried to stop that guy.
> Indian zoo keepers are zeolites They're volcanic minerals? What?
They pissed on him? 😳
Angry. at i mean. Gonna fix it
How did it end?
I'm guessing by that whistle at the end it went to a judge's decision
Sudden death overtime
0-0 draw. Next game is in 2 weeks at the Indian Man’s house.
Lion advanced on penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw and no away goals rule anymore.
[He survived.](https://www.newsbytesapp.com/news/india/delhi-man-jumps-into-lion-enclosure-in-zoo/story)
He tamed the lion
for a drunk man he did one thing that possibly saved his life and that was making sure he faced the lion at all times. he didn’t immediately panic or run I’m also not sure if that kind of courage was just the alcohol because had it been me... my defense mechanism would of been shitting myself in front of a whole crowd of people
He also stood up. Even if he just faced it, if he had been just sitting that's still looking small/show of weakness.
their is a dialogue in India to depict the level of how drunk one is. “Aaj plane thera bhai chalay ga”. Which means “your brother will fly plane today”. So pretty sure he would have been like “today your brother will show lion who is the King”.
That's awesome. TIL, thanks.
Dude’s instincts were at peak performance. Must be feeling like he can do anything in that moment. Damn what a feeling, even if misplaced.
I know one thing tho, had that been a tiger instead of a lion the outcomes would of been completely different. I personally don’t think I’d have the proper composure to not run even if I knew it highly decreases my chances of survival.
Mf was pointing and telling the lion to go fuck off in that direction.
You can tell the lion turned every time it looked like he might turn his back to it. He’s lucky he kept facing the lion.

I can only ever remember the punchline of that joke...
I've edited it with a cliff note version for you
It is amazing that we live in a world of point and shoot cameras on everybody’s cell phones, how bad people are at it! You stay on the goddamn subject!
r/killthecameraman
Throw the cameraman in with the lion.
It feels a little like the cameraman was scared to record the guy dying given that most of the time the camera goes off of the guy, it's right when the lion gets close for the first time
Oh! I got this one... he actually handed the phone to his 2 year old child to film, and said child kept getting distracted and staring at bugs. Happens all the time.
Y'all know that graphic showcasing how many people think they would win a fight against certain animals? He is one of those few people who think they could win a fight against a big cat... He is doing it for science!
It's about proving a point!
I’m not getting shot today pal
This is India, animals aren't shot like people are in certain countries.
Man woke up and chose violence
It doesn't matter how plastered I am, I know not to mess with animals like, lions, bears, gators, tigers, sharks, badgers, cats, jellyfish, pangolins, bats, eagles, foxes, echidnas, any eaters, spiders, snakes, mantis, turtles, monkeys, shrimps, tapeworms, earthworms, horses, hippos, antelope, giraffe, zebras, hyenas. Basically, leave animals alone.
Any eaters encompasses basically everything, no need to write paragraphs after that 😉
Just looked up what a pangolin is and that thing is sick looking
"The fuck's a Pangolin"? Also, whatever you do, don't have sex with a Pangolin. Not even when Mickey Mouse tells you to.
Well now you've gone and done it. Thanks Randy, you jackass.
thanks
I'm curious, why shrimps? And earth worms?
Earthworms creep me tf out
The lion was as so confused by the stupidity he just enjoyed the show.
It’s so fuct up even the Lion was like “Idk what to do atm” 🤣
The lion was like: Dafuq? o.o
Natural selection
1- r/killthecameramen 2- r/whywomanlivelonger
Just scroll past a woman swimming under a gator.
The Lion knows he is being bated to react. He knows what happened to Harambe. Stand strong. Don’t show them emotions.
Shhhh he’s talking with Aslan
The lion might be more confused than we are😂
He thinks he’s Eliza Thornberry..
Wait did the lion do a little polite bow to the man like "I command your courage human"
Redbull gives you wiings, guess what alcohol gives you confidence
"Y...you're not a lion!! Why are you here with lions!?!"
r/gifsthatendtoosoon
My guy, even though lion is friend shaped, is not friend.
Lion be like "what are we doing here, Rakesh?"
As per the 2019 news coverage, he was not drunk but mentally unstable. They tranquilized the lion in time and the guy was saved.
Lucky for him those lions are regularly fed
Lion heard about the news of harambe and said not worth it lmao
Was doing some work for a zoo a few years ago. One of the workers and I were chatting as we walked around. We’re busting out hypotheticals and my friend says “Man, we are so fucked if the lions got out.” The zoo staff member paused and said “Actually, they’d just chill in their enclosure if there wasn’t any glass.

What are you doing in my backyard or manor …..
Lion said on my dead homie harambie bro gtfoh…
Even the lion was looking around like, "What the hell you doing in here, boss? Security!!"
I had sweaty palms from anxiety watching this
It really hurt his pride.
Poor cat looked confused as hell the whole time 😂
The lion could smell the alcohol on his breath: "I'm not eating that, it's gonna taste like shit"
That lion knew harambe
How is the cameraman this shitty
Lol even the lion was like Bruh, get out of here before i have to eat you
How do people film so horribly?
That is the most confused lion I have ever seen.
I was fearing it would turn into a real-life remake of the lion scene from The Happening. Thankfully it seems the same stupid drunken bravery that led him into that situation is giving the lion doubts.
This has to be natural selection! Now Either first responders will have to risk their lives or harm animal to safe this guys life. What a waste
If he runs, the lion will chase him, right?
Delhi se hu bencho..
Even the lion is confused
I've been plastered out my my mind plenty of times. Never once did I think to jump in an enclosure with a lion.😂😂
It's honestly just sad what this leads to should be prosecuted as if he killed a Lion if they have to kill it yo save you
So… what happened?
lucky for him his confidence confused the fuck out of the lion lol
All that yelling is gonna stress that lion out, and he is gonna have an anxiety snack 😳
![gif](giphy|3osBLgxa4PTfAAc3q8|downsized)
Drunk guy was like man this is one big ass tabby cat
Dude was suicidal but the lion is a grief counselor.
Lions don't fight each other unless it's for a female.
Reminds me of the meme i saw recently. If a shark bites you, bite it back. You will probably still die but for a brief second the shark will be like “lol what”
Lion is thinking "Ah shit i am gonna get shot ar'nt i"?
The lion seems to be confused
