Big tough gamer you might be,
but if you fail to shed a happy tear at this video,
you ain't human.

last time i checked i was pretty human,
but that wasnt very sad....
actually i thought the lion was biting the guys neck for a second.

 

[Ares Tyr]

"They were later horribly mauled..."

Great story though, I've never heard of that before. Tht was a big ass lion and he looked real happy to see them. I haven't seen anything like that in my life.

Inspiring. I didn't cry, but I usually don't cry when "inspired" or "touched".

 

[Easykill]

Sorry, moving though it was(I guess), I'm not likely to cry over such a thing. Maybe I'm really an alien.

 

[Solo508]

I cant help but think how they managed to leave the lion again... that must have sucked even more than the firs time. Still, this is an amazing story, I haven't seen it in a while.

DAMNIT! I was so hoping that sap-tastic crap was going to turn dark-humored and have the lion maul the shit out of them, Sigfried and Roy style.

Heh, "look! He remembers us! Come on buddy, come to... OH MY GOD HE'S EATING ME! MY LEG!"

It might have been moving, but I got about 20 seconds through it before the "There.... once.... was.... a.... man.... who....saw....a....lion.....in...." got to me The slowness that it was forcing me to read at, I sounded like a child in my own mind. My dog is called Jasper. He is 6 years old. He likes to chew my dad's slippers. ARGH!

 

[Danny Ocean]

Awesome!

Imagine having a lion owe you a favour. Oh the possibilities.....

 

[wordsmith]

DAMNIT! I was so hoping that sap-tastic crap was going to turn dark-humored and have the lion maul the shit out of them, Sigfried and Roy style.

QFT

again, no tears here. But I was expecting the "hug" to turn into a neck-break or something

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Yeah I must be dead inside, didn't feel a thing.

 

[John Galt]

Damn, was expecting someone to get mauled. Didn't stick around after that for them to grab my sympathy and make me give them money.

 

[Zombie_King]

What was with that shirtless guy in the background? Lion shoulda mauled him.

I didn't cry because I am a man. Yeah, I lift weights and hit on chicks and kill elephants with my bare hands. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go watch "Steel Magnolias."

 

[Cid Silverwing]

fl00fy huggles for everyone. ^^

Heh, "look! He remembers us! Come on buddy, come to... OH MY GOD HE'S EATING ME! MY LEG!"

That just reminds me of the Tommy Cooper elephant story...

 

[Anarchemitis]

Awww, doesn't that make you all warm and fuzzy inside?

 

[Fire Daemon]

Awww, doesn't that make you all warm and fuzzy inside?

Yes, yes it does.

Everyone else is lying, I know it.

 

[The Wooster]

I thought it was very cute. Someone should post that video of the big cat taking care of the baby monkey though, that was very sad.

 

[Typecast]

Awwwwwww, it's so fluffy wuffy adorable *choke*. Very cute, but I can't say any salty liquid leaked from my eye glands.
*Anyone see that one of the cheetah who raised a baby deer(african deer like thing)? She killed it eventually, but she did it like 6 times! Who says psych-disorders are just for people!

 

[N.K]

I've seen it a couple of times, every time accompanied by a huge "aaaawwwwwwwwwwwww"

It's so adorable and moving

didn't cry, but I did choke up the first time I saw it.

EDIT: this wasn't the video I've seen before, thought there was only one video of it(silly me).
I'll try to find it.
