It's funny when you see people enticing animals and then getting really surprised when they react in a hostile way. It's like when someone gets something straight out of the oven and is then flabbergasted that it's hot.
After this fella scoped out a lion in the Gir Forest National Park in India he decided that he'd hang out of his car window, following the predator. It's reminiscent of when the small, skinny guy who's had too much to drink on a night out thinks he can tease a bouncer.

After the Asiatic lion puts the frighteners on him he quickly puts his window up and lets out a shriek that I bet he couldn't recreate with a thousand attempts.
In fairness, he got off quite lightly in comparison to this Christian 'prophet' who had his arse torn off by a lion after he claimed God wouldn't let it happen.
Alec Ndiwane, a Zion Christian Church prophet, bravely ran towards a pride of lions, adamant that the 'Lord's power over animals' would prevail and stop him from sustaining any serious injuries, GhanaWeb reports.
Ndiwane performed the dangerous stunt on a safari trip in South Africa in front of his fellow church-goers.

"I do not know what came over me. I thought the Lord wanted to use me to show his power over animals," Ndiwane said. "Is it not we were given dominion over all creatures of the earth."

The Christian man had spotted the lions preying on an impala in South Africa's Kruger National Park when he decided to sprint towards them. At this point, unfortunately, he was seen as prey, so the lions turned to him.

Realising his mistake, he turned on his heels and ran straight back to the car.
Unluckily, before he made it back, the Lord didn't intervene and one of the jungle cats chowed down on his derriere.
Luckily, a ranger was on hand to fire shots into the air to scare the animals away, saving Ndiwane from further injuries. He was rushed to hospital to have his wounds stitched.

"It would have been reported to us if any of our rangers had taken part in this incident as reported," Kruger National Park spokesman William Mabasa said.
