GeorgeSThey're lucky those were very young, inexperienced, and/or tame lions.

ErikDBoth?
A very strange film clip, that's for sure. Where could they have done this? The lions also seemed pretty young and not genuinly wild with very little agression.

These lions certainly didn't attack their "prey" like any of the wild lions I've seen.

BwanahileThese are the same knuckleheads that hang pieces of chicken in their underwear (sorry to bring up underwear again) and crawl on a tightrope over alligators. From the Jackass series on MTV.

Slim_ZippyNo they were obviously not wild. People always forget that "in captivity" doesn't mean tame. They got away with it this time, next time who knows if a little extra instinct won't kick in and we are without two more fools.
Nice doesn't mean weak.

Sambar 9.3G'day,
Jackass? Isn't that the show where the dickheads are in the shopping trolley, being towed down the freeway? The one where everyone hopes that Darwin was right? That the shopping trolley will flip over and keep the fools out of the gene pool?
A bit like the people who ignore the "No swimming, Crocodiles!" signs on a hot day. Then their next of kin wonder why it was them, they were such nice people.
Steve, I would have to go with; Both!
Cheers, Dave.

Steve,
I would have to say staged, stupid, dumb and above all lucky.

Aspen Hill AdventuresObviously it was the tiger striped costume that had the lions baffled.

BALLBUSTERjacka$$ were the guys that walked into a hardware store, looked at a salesfloor commode then took a crap in it....yes very entertaining...NOT!

AtkinsonI'm satisfied they were wild lions and the attack was that of wild lions on a wounded animal...they were both young lions.
It would have been a different story if mama and her bunch had been around, but I doubt that an older lion would have attacked, it wouldn't look right to her and she would probably back off.....
Had the old man been around, it would have ended in a hurry as he would have gotten pissed and killed both idiots...He could bite through those helmits without effort.

RedlanderI wonder if Saeed and Ray could get Walter into a similar suit and use him as a decoy.

If you are going to carry a big stick, you've got to whack someone with it at least every once in while.

wimpieThese guys are stupid. You cannot tame a wild animal, you can only make him used to humans. A wild animal will always have the wild instinks. A tame animal does not have to be big to kill injure you, I know off a few people that was injured by their "pets".

Wild animals are wild and that is the way they should stay.

NitroX"rooting" has a different meaning down here. I think you might get a little scratched.
Whether it was staged is irrelevant!
It’s just dumbass stupid, PERIOD.
