Watch The Shocking Moment A Lion Grabbed A Child, Live On TV

Of all the weird things to surface on Imgur, this video from a 2003 Mexican TV show pretty much takes the biscuit.

It shows a lion grab hold of a child, and then have a kind of tug-of-war with said child’s mother - all while the presenters continue with the (live) show.

Everyone seems very relaxed about the whole thing - including the child - and eventually the lion lets go, and settles down.

This could have been a lot, lot worse, and is a pretty firm argument for not having lions on TV shows (especially when there are appetising kids around).
