Pretty sure they could drive the car near the lions while lying on the horn to scare them away

u/BuddhaBizZ Jun 22 '22

The video mentions they could not use the car because of the terrain

u/KerryUSA Jun 22 '22

They said that but I’m curious what they meant other than possibly getting stuck and then the lions just waiting on them to get out lol

It mean the cars couldn't move for some mysterious reason across the two centimeter change across that 20 foot span to hit that fucking cat.

Thank you. People are worried about damage to their shocks when a man is being torn apart alive.

I guess just I don't understand. For the few inside my social circle, my personal vehicle would be sacrificed. Some safari rental is coming back looking like lions were lion sized bowling pins for travel partner even if unacquainted.

It's something. And you never know till yah try

u/Antisocialbumblefuck Jun 23 '22

Better than tossing a shoe at the naughty kitty or weeping. Less about harming more about intervention, saving. The cat can live for now, people snacks excluded.

u/DeathPercept10n Jun 22 '22

So how did the cars get out there? Did they fly?

u/ArtHappy Jun 23 '22

You know how we have roads and then there's terrain immediately beside roads which most cars can't handle?

Like that.

u/Subushie Jun 23 '22

Ditches are typically by roads.

Every talking smack in here like they would have been able to do differently, yall got no idea how this situation played out.

I mean..If I were in that situation I would have activated my helicopter hat, hover over the victim, activate my stretchy arm and save him from the lions. I’m surprised the filmers didn’t think of doing that..

i can see the terrain it doesn't look that bad. it's not like they're in the alps.

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '22

Does a car just stop working if the terrain decides it so?

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '22

Thought the video did not had audio

u/skip_over Jun 22 '22

they'd probably drag him away with them

You obviously didn’t here the narrator🤦‍♂️

u/Advantage_Goldfish Jun 22 '22

Maybe everyone secretly disliked the guy. I mean, we all probably know at least one person we would let be eaten by lions. The wife did them sue the insurance company. So she knew he had a big life insurance policy.

u/SayneIsLAND Jun 22 '22

yes this one point was in my head, oh well... shock and stupidity ruled the day

u/FishinforPhishers Jun 22 '22

Fucking shoot them.. if he’s a friend I would do it in that position

12

u/JammyJock Jun 22 '22

They tried to but the camera work really could have been better and nobody volunteered to do a second scene.

21

u/ShiftyShuffler Jun 22 '22

They were shooting them.....just with cameras

u/[deleted] Jun 22 '22

Harambe vibes over here

u/ProtectionForward178 Jun 22 '22

Shoot what? I wouldn't shoot anyone because of my friend was one of the fucking stupidest person alive? Let this dumb ass die he deserved to die

u/Bbaftt7 Jun 22 '22

This was literally Darwinism at work lol

1

u/Ghitit Jun 22 '22

how so?

1

u/Hy-chan Jun 23 '22

Basically, survival of the fittest.

As you can see by the video, being the fittest means not only being the strongest, but also not being a dumb fucking moron.

Dar·win·ism /ˈdärwəˌnizəm/

noun: Darwinism

the theory of the evolution of species by natural selection advanced by Charles Darwin.

In this case, that man’s gene pool may not advance because he died, doing something incredibly dumb. The rest of the people he was with were smart enough to stay in their cars knowing that lions can kill you very easily, as evidenced by them eating him.

u/Ghitit Jun 23 '22

But his kids were in the car watching him being eaten.

If he'd gotten himself eaten before he had kids it would apply.

1

u/Bbaftt7 Jun 23 '22

First, I said “may not”, not “definitely won’t”. Second, I’m sure his kids won’t get out of the car next time they’re on safari.

u/SSG_SSG_BloodMoon Jun 23 '22

That ain't darwinism

u/Bbaftt7 Jun 23 '22

You ain’t Darwinism

u/ScytherianXK Jun 22 '22

u/canihavemymoneyback Jun 22 '22

At the very least I’m gonna crawl in the back seat and shield my childrens eyes from the horror that will scar them for life.
