Why does everyone seem to die in dramatic circumstances in China? Falling lifts, flooding, escalators, Tigers, explosions, random stabbings and being run over. They seem to be the unluckiest people in the world
A complete lack of safety consciousness on behalf of yourself and others appears to be the connecting factor!

I believe the rankings in hardness are accepted to be:

Brown Bear
Tiger
Lion
Gorilla

Brown bears are the most fearsome predators on the planet. When placed in a cage with a Lion the poor old Lion didn't even get a look in.

Owned.

Re animal strength, didn't they do something with chimpanzee tugging a rope to see how much force they could generate and it turned out that chimpanzee were about 5 times stronger than humans. And they're hardly HUGE.

Re tigers, anything that can take down some of the st they do in the wild is going to fk any human up sharpish.
its to do with the angle and type of muscles, a aggressive chimp would annihilate even the biggest hardest Martial Artist, UFC type bloke, even throw that Mountain bloke from Game of Thrones in he would get mullered and he is probably 3 times stronger, but wont be as quick and doesn't have massive gobfull of massive, sharp teeth quite like a Chimp.

Make a mean brew as well.

Great tip for any gents wanting to get rid of the wife! Start an argument while driving through Whipsnade. In her rage, she'll storm out as women are wont to do. Job jobbed.
The mother-in-law died, not the wife (who was dragged out first).

A tiger will maul a lion 9 times out of 10... they are easily the most fearsome of the big cats.
Do they bump into each other often? I though they lived on different continents?
Animal fighting used to be quite a popular sport... The results are well documented

Edited to add: actually being quick witted and pulling it off may be the best way of distracting it - would have to be male though.

The woman who first got out survived. It's the one who went to her aid, from the rear, who died.
Strange how that often seems to happen. You often hear of people dying trying to save a swimmer/animal in distress, too. It's like the moral shame of watching someone die overrides the "fk that, I'll certainly die if they're half my age and in trouble!" logic of self preservation. Then the original person somehow survives after all.

We had season tickets to Woburn safari for a bit which is just up the road. The lions were lay sts, just lay around. Looked like you could get out give em a tickle and they wouldn't flinch.

The tigers were always pacing up and down looking like proper hard bds. A brown bear was at the fence one day giving one st. The tiger looked ready to pull the fence down.

Chuck Norris of the animal world they are. Used to love watching the tigers for ages.

There are warnings obviously everywhere not to get out , open windows etc. But right before the tiger bit there were loads of extra warnings, basically saying what a mean bunch of fkers the tigers are.

Sincerely hope that we don't have to hear later that the tigers were destroyed.

I got out the car in a safari park before because I was desperate for a piss. Difference was I only had giraffes round me and they are wimps.

I've sat 20ft away from a Silverback Gorilla in the wild in Rwanda. I'm fooked if I'd go any further up the Animal School of Hard Knocks!

Yes, a nice relaxing long weekend in Brittany would soothe them no end.
