I guess that's trying to prove you have a big pair between your legs, but little or nothing between your ears! Bob

Sorry This video has been rigged.
After the hectic and fuzzy scene when the hunter is nailed, note that the lion's hind legs are stiff, he is dead. The finishing shot is just for cheating even more. A fighting lion is keeping himself atop of his prey not crouching under it.
In my opinion, the hunters downed the lion at very close quarter (a couple of inches), then one hunter lied on the lion and arrange the mouth of the lion to look bitten.Note also that he isn't kept in the claws of the lion. RIGGED

Thanks Larcher! It does skip a bit in critical parts.

Well it looks fishy to me, pretty interesting anyhow. Not much vintage video out there, and a lot more exciting than my go pro Lion video, staged or not.

I'll bet the A-hole on the ground had ringing ears for days after that fake finishing shot.

Doesn't mean the incident didn't happen only the end was re staged and spliced in with the actual footage. A fairly well known hunter hunting with a bore rifle in the 50's was charged by a rhino and dropped the beast with one shot at close range. The cameraman got rubber legs and missed the camera footage that was later re done and spliced in as best as could be to recreate the actual event.
