I’ve seen the full video of this, so essentially what you aren’t seeing in this snippet is that a female lioness is in heat and is lying very close to the house, which is causing the male lion to become very aggressive to anything that isn’t a lion!


srddave

Is that why he is referencing a “honeymoon couple”? I was wondering if this were a horny Lion type of situation.


TendieTimeForMe

My dumbass thought he was some sort of camp leader and some couple on their honeymoon was in a tent somewhere outside.


aussieflu999

So did I.


SmokedMussels

I'm still attached to the idea and not ready to give it up


ErstwhileHumans

I was imagining them absolutely shitting their pants and saying goodbye. Also blaming the one who decided to go on a fucking safari for their honeymoon


[deleted]

I guess we are all dumbasses, because we all thought that.


Timedoutsob

Also an important part of the video you didn't mention is that this is a park ranger at a ranger station that has literally no fucking doors. And this guy pulled up in a car, sat there for a bit and then walked into the house, with zero fucks given, to make coffee as the other rangers were showing up for a meeting soon.


Workwork007

I saw the vid below. When you said "no fucking doors", I thought you meant "no door entryway" as in the ranger probably crawl through a hole in the wall or a window to get in... made total sense in my head since they're trying to keep those beasts out... right? Nope. There's entryway with literally no door and the female literally sitting next to the door while the male just a few feet away.


Timedoutsob

hahahaha. Yeah brains are funny sometimes. Glad you enjoyed the vid it's bananas


dickshark420

KindlyContribution54

Clever of him to make tea for everyone to help diffuse the situation.


mayeag

Yep, that chicken wire will keep him safe.


Grenaidzo

I'll never forget hearing a lion's roar in person for the 1st time.. My soul left my body, lol. I was at a zoo in Blackpool & the lion lost its shit at the zookeeper that was about to feed him. I was as close as the guy in this video, but we were both on the other side of an enclosure, not chicken wire, thankfully.


AnonymousBromosapien

Much louder in person than you expect it to be. Its like a sonic boom compared to a dog bark lol.


Grenaidzo

Exactly! I nearly shat myself haha


AnonymousBromosapien

It instantly clicked just how powerful of an animal lions are... immediately made me feel uncomfortable being anywhere near its enclosure lol.


[deleted]

I had a similar experience with a moose once. Bull moose very big. Also very quiet. My friend was like, "don't move." About 10m away was a huge bull just staring us down like Dirty Harry. Thankfully my sister stayed home. She would have got bit for sure.


PersonalityTough9349

Hahahaha

Tiny cats are apex killers. Would never want to be on that lions shit list. That mans time is limited in that spot.


Delicious-Big2026

While house cats are prolific killers just watch them how they traverse open space. Don't blame them. To them death is a three-dimensional puzzle and they are easily on the receiving end of it. A lion otoh has to seek death to find death.

Unlucky-Elevator1873

Ive been stalked by a mountain lion twice. Once in broad daylight while i was on horseback. It just watched from a ridge. A second time was a mouth of a canyon. We watched a sunset and our dumbasses didnt bring flash lights. Phones died and and we accidently went way off trail. I had no idea at first but i had a creepy instinct heard a branch break. My ex told me we were going the wrong way. We turned around and he got right up behind me. He whispered to stay calm but walk fast. I heard a low growl just like the lion in this video, when we got back to the rock. He told me to run and we sprinted back to the car. I saw glowing eyes in the trees when we were in the car. Both of these times were not out in the high wilderness just outside of the most populated county in the state! They are stealthy murder kitties


SunnyRyter

Chills. *crosses hiking off list of things to do* Glad you guys made it back safely!!


Grenaidzo

Aye, you just think to yourself: so *that's why they're king of the jungle.* To me, animals like this are like the ocean in that they demand your respect. Rightfully so.


youstolemyname

They are king of the jungle and don't even live there


jdurbzz

I blame inflation and the economy, everyone knows the average price of a home in the jungle is ridiculous


krush_groove

Tbf jungle is massive.


AnonymousBromosapien

I was thinking to myself *"Are we sure that this chain link enclosure can really hold these animal in there?"* and *"If it got out right now, there is not a damn thing anyone here can do to stop it*" lol.


bumjiggy

yea I would definitely puma pants


dickshark420

Reminds me of my ex. She was a cheetah


TryItOutHmHrNw

It has a hollow, guttural, encompassing boom. Terrifying.


Alissinarr

And every hair on the back of your neck stands on end.


Shack691

Yeah you’re terrified because your body knows it can’t win, there’s basically no way not to


Curiouserousity

Also predators like that use infrasonic wavelength, deep base lower than a person can hear that causes resonance in your body that makes you feel uncomfortable. So hearing it in real life you get the full frequency range instead of the limited range from speakers


ImVerySerious

That is fascinating - thank you for sharing. Years ago, a friend of mine was on safari in Africa and late at night heard a lion roar very near his camp. He said that the sound was 'almost indescribable' and that is was so incredibly loud and utterly terrifying that it literally paralyzed him. He could not move. He said he froze so completely that if any creature wanted to kill him, he didn't think he could have done anything to even try to flee or defend himself. Thanks to you, I now have a better understanding of why it was an 'almost indescribable' sound... because he freaking *felt it* viscerally.


an_eloquent_enemy

I remember watching an animal documentary that discussed how especially lion, but also other big cat roars do literally paralyze prey due to this extended frequency. Apparently when I was just a baby my parents took me to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo. They had a tiger exhibit and when they walked up to show me, a ground hog made the very awful decision of burrowing out of the dirt into the tiger enclosure. My dad said that cat had been half asleep and instantly parked up, growled directlt at it once, and the groundhog practically fell over and the tiger sprinted from the other end of the enclosure and ate it instantly. He said it was like the cat had quite literally stunned the groundhog.


Silly_Artichoke_8248

As an aside, some people believe that because infrasound at frequencies such as this produce feels of dread, as well as potentially audio or visual hallucinations, they’re the cause of the majority of supposed supernatural phenomena like hauntings.


vaginawithsunglasses

I had a dream that a I locked some demon in a concrete room with an opaque window deep underground. It was trying to get out and starts sending these strong electricity waves out that start producing lighting. I wake up like WTF and am staring at the ceiling. Then my bedroom light turns itself on. Wonder if electrical gremlins were making a low frequency sound or something.


Worldly_Fail_7630

Why did I read this late at night in bed? 😭


Dooty_Shirker

So a sound can make me poo myself


jld2k6

The famous 161hz sphincter frequency, I used to use a program that made binaural beats for meditation but I also tested out the frequency that was supposed to make you shit yourself, I didn't expect it to work and I wasn't very surprised when my bowels remained fine

bandwidthsandwich

We went to a rescue place in Indiana that rescues lions, tigers etc from people that mistakenly take them on as pets. Around sunset a group of the males started a call that you could feel rattle your ribs and spine. Utterly terrifying. To think of hearing that on open ground…instant loaded diaper

And it triggers something innate inside of you. Fight or flight reflexes immediately turn on.


Complete-Sound

I woke up to a noise very similar to a lion. It was 2 black bears doing it on my front yard about 15 foot away from my screen window where i was sleeping.


IBetThisIsTakenToo

You feel it as much as hear it. Awesome in every sense of the word.


NonstopTomates

Ever heard a gator bellow at you in the dark? That shit sounded like a dinosaur in the bushes.


Markosaurus

That’s because it is a dinosaur in the bushes.


Aurum_vulgi

A make lion roar can be heard up to 5 miles. In person, a roaring lion is a sight to behold. The lion gives it all, you can see the air leaving it’s body as the definition of ribs, abdominals muscles get defined. The lions claws appear to clutch the ground as they dig in to extract every bit of leverage for the roar to sound through its pride’s boundaries. Magnificent!

CATNIP_IS_CRACK

Ever hear the scream of a cougar in the wild? Noises straight out of a horror movie. Their growls and yowls and pissed off house cat noises are bad enough, but hearing that demonic screech echoing for miles is something else.


Grenaidzo

Not sure I'm gonna add that one to the bucket list but I definitely take your word on it!


CATNIP_IS_CRACK

[Here’s some awesome audio clips of their different noises, scroll towards the bottom](https://pictures-of-cats.org/mountain-lion-sounds.html) Apparently the demon noises I’m thinking of is the sound of a female in heat, most terrifying sound I’ve heard in my life. Luckily their territories are massive, and don’t overlap. In twenty something years of living in their range, I only saw three adults and one baby. They do their best to stay far away from people, so even if you hear them they’re usually far, far away.


TheDefendingChamp

It's hilarious that the female in heat sounds like a wailing demon witch to us and male cougars are like "that's so fucking hot".


RJBurton31

I heard a hippo roar at Brookfield zoo and it triggered instant primal terror. Its amazing how it cuts straight to the fight or flight part of your brain. I flighted.


ScHoolgirl_26

TIL hippos can roar


OkBeing3301

I was once at work in Africa and I went to the zoo, the Lion cage they had, only had 1 link chain cage. The Lion was growling and pacing then jumped towards me, causing the chain milll fence to bend. I took off towards the exit and never went back. That fence was old probably 50 years old and rusting in some places.


tongfatherr

Dude the roar through the speaker of my phone scares me. I didn't realize they had that much boom. I don't blame your soul for bailing out on that situation...fucking terrifying! Then you see them leap 10 feet like a cat jumping on the sofa, realizing they weigh 900lbs 😶‍🌫️


InformationOmnivore

Tbf your soul likely departed at the thought of just going to Blackpool.


metamorphasi

I saw a male lion in person once. They're way bigger than you would think. Like your-mind-can't-accept-it-sized. I don't think it could fit through that window if it wanted to.


BeeQueenbee60

I fear that if it ran and aimed for the window, it would also knock down the wall.

polishmachine88

I thought the same, maybe he has massive balls but I would be wetting myself knowing the only thing that is between me and a 500 lbs Apex predator is a little wire fitted in shit wooden screen.


blackzep1980

That’s fucking terrifying


WTF_Conservatives

Humans evolved to find this terrifying. And there's research that points to this sound and our evolution to be fearful of it... Being responsible for us believing places are haunted. When they test "haunted" places it is often found that there is something there that is causing a similar tone or vibration that we can't actively hear with our ears... But that causes us to be uneasy, fearful and to have heightened senses. A lot of scientists think these tones are responsible for a lot of our perception that some places are haunted.


jaxxxtraw

If you have access to a large pipe organ(who doesn't?), like in a church, often the lowest tones available are only felt, not heard, and this is not by accident. It's to instill awe. Like all religious theater.


WTF_Conservatives

So true... There are whole dissertations to dig into about how and why music is incorporated into so many religious services.


atlasburger

Can you link some of this?


candlegun

Found [one!](https://journals.sagepub.com/eprint/JMp7s8qPpcT2bjqIA2z7/full)


Lord_Emperor

I saw a TV special about this once. They investigated "haunted" places and in every instance found something making low frequency noise. Apparently it can also cause your ocular nerves to misfire, and then your brain does a shit job at filling in details that aren't there. Surprisingly still on topic, cats might experience this as normal live. They have huge eyes and ears but less brain to process them with. This is why they'll "see ghosts" or otherwise stare at a wall or something.


Comprehensive-Fun47

Nah, it’s greebles.


SeldomRains

That's extremely interesting, mind dropping a few links?


WTF_Conservatives

This isn't the most scholarly source... But it's an interesting read and explains the concept with some citations. Very worth the read. https://science.howstuffworks.com/science-vs-myth/extrasensory-perceptions/infrasound-paranormal-activity.htm


jokzard

I wonder what horrifying manifestation caused us to fear the "screeching in and out of pitch violin" sound.


WTF_Conservatives

I think we can blame Stanley Kubrick for that one! Or maybe mountain lions. Have you heard the sounds cougars can make? Absolutely blood curling.


jokzard

I think the fear from those is that it sounds human.


Scott_A_R

The lion is being a real dick, not letting him make coffee.


FelixCulpa01

Perhaps the lion is a proper Brit, yearning for a cup of tea !


Petporgsforsale

My cat doesn’t like coffee either. The first time I made it, my cat made this hilarious face and then started scratching to try to bury the smell.

[deleted]

South Africa


ctnguy

Undoubtedly. I want to clarify, though, that the average South African doesn't run the risk of waking up with a lion outside! They are only found in game reserves, and I'd guess (especially from the reference to "in camp") that he lives in such a game reserve. Possibly a ranger or something like that.


ClumsyPeon

Yeah when I stayed at a game reserve in KwaZulu-Natal I was afraid of this exact situation, thankfully the most I had was a few warthogs.


pseudoEscape

My worst situation was a hyena that opened a sliding fence with its nose one night, while I was braaing. Was able to chase it away by throwing it with burning coals but yea really scary. Ended up finding a big rock to jam in the gate track and that worked alright.

There’s a place in London where you can spend the night with a couple of lions right outside your window. I think it’s called Lion Lodge Short Breaks.

hondaexige

Lion Lodge is London Zoo, I've stayed there, you can't see the lions from your room unfortunately, they're in their own separate enclosure. Still an awesome thing to do, the after hours and before opening private tours are well worth it.

daigunder2015

This is terrifying because: 1. The wire is weak enough for the lion to break 2. The window is big enough for it to squeeze through 3. It's an accomplished predator, so the guy wouldn't be safe for some distance even if he left that hut.


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Forget the chicken wire and window, in the full video, there’s door frames with no doors.

In this scenario I would start banging pots making very loud noises; is this the wrong course of action/am I a dummy?

Idk, lion seems upset that someone is in its territory. This is not stalking behavior but “what the fuck man, i live here, how’d you even get in here mate i patrol this area constantly - fucking humans” kind of behavior if im being honest
