Man Survives Jump Into Lion’s Den

46-Year-Old Was Reportedly Trying To Convert Lions To Born-Wild-Again Christianity

A man was attacked and injured after jumping into a lion’s den at the Taipei Zoo and trying to convert the lions to Christianity.

The 46-year-old man leaped into the den of lions and shouted “Jesus will save you.”

He also said, “Come bite me” before one of the male lions attacked, and it bit the man.

Yeah, I saw the video over dinner - how appetizing. I couldn’t hear the audio, so I was trying to figure out where it was taking place, thinking, “Gee, that kind of looks like the Taipei zoo’s lion enclosure.” I used to think the lion enclosure looked a bit unsafe; I wondered if the lions really tried, would they be able to jump out? Turns out it was zoo visitors jumping in that they should have been worried about.

Just wait until Taipei 101 opens. I wonder how many people would try to do something funny off the tallest building in the world.

After jumping in the lion’s pit, crazy dude was astonished to see them kneel down and fold their little paws together, as if in prayer.

“Lord, for what we are about to receive, make us truly thankful…”


Man Jumps into Pen to Preach to Lions in Taipei Zoo, Trying to Convert Them to Christianity

You know you’re a fanatic when…

wow, must have been hit up one too many times.

Too many readings of the “Book of Daniel”!

Hell, where I come from our evangelists would not only have saved their souls, but gotten a love-offering out of them too.

should have left him there: both for eugenics and to give the lions a bit of dietary variety…maybe a bit of undigestible fibre in the jacket, though.

The only thing missing from this scene was some Romans.

Hope the lions are OK.

Fun to make fun of the insane isn’t it.

I’m a bit surprised no grandstanding “politicians” have stuck their ugly mugs into a camera lens with demands that the lions be beaten or otherwise punished for their transgression. That’s what usually happens here.

I really though this thread was going to be about the US Iraqi policy.

I converted some Christians to Lionism once, then they bit my leg off.

My friend commented

do you think he really was mentally deranged?

Maybe he was just a very committed christian…it’s a fine line
