DISQUS

mike brennan · 1 year ago

see the ending i was expecting (maybe i watch too many movies) was the Lion mauling both those guys. I'm not sure which version would make me vomit more, the real or my "alternative ending". Quick - someone make a dvd special edition.

It wouldn't have been so bad without that freaking Aerosmith song.

I was sure the lion was going to maul those guys... man I'm let down!

Meghan · 1 year ago

Okay.

So, maybe it's 'cause I'm a lady and all but I actually teared up. I thought that was lovely. Not the Aerosmith song part, or the cheesy "You just got this from someone who loves you bit" but the actual reunion part, that was sort of...sweet.

Who's a dork?

I was so scared that he was going to eat the guys face off! I thought it was kinda sweet, though.

Aaron Blevins · 1 year ago

I'll admit I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the lion to open wide and swallow their faces.... but I'm glad it didn't. It was a sweet reunion! I liked it.

Scrap the song and the somebody loves you bit and it could be a fun video.
The lion obviously wasn't hungry. Oh yeah. It's the female lions that hunt. Humm...

Tony Steward · 1 year ago

The best ending would have been if the lion ran right past the guys and mauled the camera man...

Scott Fillmer · 1 year ago

yep, I was pretty sure the lion was going to just eat those two on the spot...

Sorry for the super long post, but this video made me think of this story...

In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from NorthwesternUniversity.
On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully.
He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense mom ents. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.
Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned
and walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.
Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed his stupid ass against the railing, killing him instantly.
Probably wasn't the same elephant.

That song made it hysterical. I also thought Bo and Luke Duke would get mauled. ROFL!!!

Take note. This is what happens to a lion after watching Oprah. Sick world.

They named...a lion...Christian....

RachelB · 1 year ago

Ok, I gotta say... I was TOTALLY with Meghan up there!!! I totally teared up!! I too, was waiting for the lion to maul the two guys, mostly 'cause they both had such atrocious hair-dos. But then he actually jumped into their arms and was hugging them. He missed them!! His daddies... ok, that's a little weird. But I stole this video and put it on my blog, too. And then I cuddled a little longer with my kitties last night on the couch... just sayin'...

Molly_Mac · 1 year ago

my mom sent me this earlier in the week and I cried out loud...but I have a thing for Lions.
(and I am more of a chick than I thought!)

Laura · 1 year ago

that was soooo disturbing ... ugh. I was waiting for that thing to bite someone's head off. Needless to say, I was a little disappointed.

Kari · 1 year ago

I'm with the girls. I cried! It was sooo sweet!

Steve Murphy · 1 year ago

So good to see that Siegfried & Roy are still together after all these years.

*barf*

chris · 1 year ago

I was hoping for the mauling too. It just would have been the perfect ending.

Renee Garcia · 1 year ago

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who teared up! LOL

Crystal Renaud · 1 year ago

hope my "girly, supposed to love this kind crap card" isn't revoked for thinking that is the dumbest thing i've ever seen.

stephen lechner · 1 year ago

Okay, Molly Moore's story about the elephant is hilarious!!! Did anybody read that?! Kudos my friend. It was worth the read.

Doug · 1 year ago

I'm an animal lover, and don't mind the song. Lose the caption at the end.

Yep, I teared up and remain unashamed.

Larry Boatright · 1 year ago

Man, there must not be a ProCuts in Kenya...

Gabriel Mcgee · 1 year ago

I'm with Meghan, scrap the song and the "I got this from someone who loves me" or whatever, and that could be a great video!

Funny story Molly Moore!
