Apologies if you have all seen this. Considering the animal was hard hit and not moving very fast it smacks the guy like a train. The PH is no camel jockey either.

I noticed that as well, and I agree!

From the looks of it, the PH thought he had 1 bullet left in that double right before he got jumped. His gun is right on the cat but the cat just comes for him. I've seen this video before with people commenting on that guy screaming, but I can't say I blame him! He's lucky he didn't get hit by the bullet that killed that cat!

The second cameraman was in the way preventing the tracker from being in there sooner with his ax.

I heard a guy screaming like that once. His wife was beating him with a steam iron.

You're right, I thought it was the other guy with the hat on it showed shooting the double earlier in the film. Guess he didn't have time to work the bolt.

He actually won an award for it. Roy (the camera man) was in my camp this year filming for an Australian hunter. The unedited version has some pretty funny comments after the mauling. I also got to meet the P.H. that was mauled as he is a good friend of the P.H. I hunted with.

I suggest you download REALPLAYER.

It allows you to download most of the videos one finds on the Internet.

There are several version of the software, but all you need is the free version for this.

Yes it does. In fact, it seems to download any video that I have seen on the net.

+1

The free version allows you to download, and there is an upgrade that allows you to burn to DVD's. I had some problems burning vids downloaded in Real format.

An old video that's been around and all over the internet for quite some time. It was shown at SCI a couple of conventions ago, with some of the real players there to describe and discuss it. It's still great to watch, though. Big Grin

This is the version that was posted awhile back. This was my post on that thread regarding the tracker.

Did anyone else notice the black African moving in on the leopard as it had the guy down while the others were making a hasty retreat? What was the black guy carrying? It looked like a panga. You have to admire that guys pluck.



After going back and watching that version all I can say is the client was a total c###. What a "hero" making the kill shot.

I really liked when he said that he was moving to the right to make the shot. It looked to me like he was backpedaling.

At least the leopard had balls.

Right. Once the leopard has given you a good scratching he'll move onto to someone else but a wife is like a lion; they try to finish you.

I bet that guy took, and will take to his last day, a load of crap from his buddies about wailing.

Wounded a leopard, (nobody on AR has ever blown a shot). Martin thought enough of the client to allow him on the follow up and the client shoots the leopard without hitting the PH. I am sure Chappy appreciated the shot. Your standards are pretty high to not be a c###.

Will, if I wound anything this year I will be sure not to tell you, but it surely will be attributed to the second trigger on the Krieghoff.

Said by the client with more than a hint of pride:
" The fact that I was the one to make the, um, fataling shot to, um, get the leopard off him, um, really made us all stop and to pause to give thanks to what we had just encountered. "

What!?
This was the guy who started the whole mess! I'm not condemning him for wounding it, but I really can't see a client being proud of shooting the leopard he wounded while it was in the process of mauling someone who was only there to clean up the client's mess.

I hope I no one ever gets mauled by an animal that I have wounded. But if it were to happen I would hope that it would humble me enough to refrain from making statements that make me sound as though I thought I was the hero, regardless of how I handled the follow-up.

I had to go back an re-watch the video I posted. No matter how many times I see it I laugh when Martin says: "You scream like a bi@@@!"

And can anyone tell me, on guns that a PH uses only for leopard follow-ups why don't they have them fitted with a bayonet?

I am talking of course of the 12ga shotguns that are often used. I realize that the chap who got chewed was using a bolt rifle, but I would have thought a bayonet would have given him another half second....

He has taken a whole raft of $hit from his buddies. I've only met the man once, but I can tell you I sure as hell wouldn't want to go a round with him.

As pointed out above, it's real easy to talk like that when you aren't under a leopard.
