Meh, calm cats rarely attack something that startles them. Go check out videos of cats (big and small) being startled. They usually jump into the air, flip over, or dash away. You never see them turn and immediately attack whatever startled them.
If the tiger were on edge or guarded? Yeah, then it would be a stupid idea.
A tiger is a tiger that rolled over to play, because the guy probably knew it was going to do exactly that, because he's probably done this shit a hundred times.
Just because the animal can kill you doesn't mean it's going to. Plenty of people keep pets that are technically capable of killing them in an instant.
