One of three things here:
1.These guys were bad shots.
2.They were shooting 22-250's when they should have been shooting at LEAST 375's.
3.A male lion is one tough kitty.
No matter what the case it was cool to watch.Hey,why can't that ever happen to the Crocodile Hunter????
I can't believe the guide let him take that shot? Looked like a pretty poor angle. They are lucky somebody did not get killed! If not from the lion, shooting each other!
I'm thinking of Old Buck's Sereghenti (sp) warrior & will look forward to his comments. Those folks were VERY lucky. It's a wonder nobody got shot as well.
How could that lion have known that that 1 guy had shot him,He went straight for the shooter.It's gotta make you wonder about how intelligent they are.Awsome footage and I bet there was some dirty short's after that though.
I look at lions as 4-500 pound killing machines and have seen them take on a one ton cape buffalo so I'm not surpised to see how much it takes to put one down. Looked to me like if it wasn't for the last shot we'd have seen a lot different video without the high fives. I think I'll stick to taking plains game with a bow. At least they have to kill you with their horns!
