When the fun of puncturing tires wears out, there is no doubt these two thugs will start carjacking the tourists.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Smart lions! Flatten the tires, hide near by and wait for someone to get out to change the tire. It's called lion baiting..... dancing

Land Rover Defender?

Defender of what? Apparently the stupidity of the people driving it for just sitting there.

Those people are really lucky the lions don't understand glass. And, it's a woman driver who stopped and let them bite the tires; probably thinks lions are "cute and cuddly" and if you respect and love them they will return the favor.

I'm sure it's somewhere in South Africa. The sticker and plates are South African, and they don't look like they are rigged to go far or even the sort to go far.

My guess it's one of these day trip type game reserves we have all over the place here, or one of our national parks. Maybe Pilansberg?

One pic shows the Landie was from a dealer in Potchefstroom. There are a few signposts in the pics but I cannot make them out. Perhaps someone will recognise them?

I had a Landie Discovery once, and from my experience I wouldn't be surprised if they were stuck there with a broken engine Eeker

At least these people had enough brains to remain in the car.

Unlike that japanese nitwit who though he would get close to them, and got eaten for his trouble.

"One can only marvel at the STUPIDITY of dumbasses who would put themselves in that predicament. Fucking unbelievable! "
"Apparently the stupidity of the people driving it for just sitting there"

Jeeez....give it a break!

I'll bet a penny to a dollar they are in Kruger or somesuch where the deal is to drive through the game.
You see lions...you stop to look at them.
Lion starts chewing on tyres...kind of difficult to drive off, though I bet they had wished they had done.
No jack on the ground...nothing to suggest they were stupid.
Lots to suggest they were lucky!

It's a Defender which probably means it wouldn't start anyway....... if it'd been a Discovery, it would have broken it's gearbox before it ever got into the park............ Wink

The picture with the jack seem to be after the fact. It's not visible in any of the other pictures.

But I have a question, who was outside the car taking the pictures???

Nah, I’m sure it was the resident tree-baboon, with a camera he got through some foreign aid program – aimed at enriching the lives of the fast disappearing African wildlife.

And if it were an earlier model with Lucas electrical it might not have made it out of the garage.
