I'm sure these pics are from some sort of animal camp where they train them or something, but this dude is crazy. Anyone know anything about him? The pics give me the creeps, I ain't getting this close to a Lion or Tiger or any wild animal that could swipe my head off with 1 swing :)

Yeah, the trick is make sure their well fed. You try that with a hungry cat and you WILL get eaten.

But, I can think of a guy who used to think he was in tune with bears too.......

He did that for years, and the bear who killed him was an anomaly. I wouldn't recommend it, but the bear guy seemed to know pretty well what he was doing.

lol the bear guy was still a coked out retard...I hardly think he knew what he was doing. Maybe after a couple years he figured out some things but after seeing most of that documentary I don't think I'd trust that guy with bears. Then he died.

I don't believe so, but then again, I haven't looked.

Anyone else know?

The real audio was destroyed by the Grizzley Man's friend (or his grandmother or someone. I forget). But I do know they didn't want to hear it again and they didn't want it to be leaked for everyone to hear, so they destroyed it

I have no doubt that those big cats have very similar personalities to domesticated house cats. I'm sure they can be just as affectionate and playful too. My cat is pretty wild and kills a lot of little critters. She is friendly with us but does playfully attack sometimes. I'm sure you could raise a lion the same way. Difference is if/when it does attack, playful or not, it'll probably kill you.

they are "wild" cats for a reason, I have fended off a tabby attack and only left with some bleeding, this dude kissing on a Lion is just asking to get his head bit off. Between him doing this and the thread of the guy on here who captured a Black Widow and wants to breed it. White people really are the most insane fuckers on the planet :)
