Check Out These Two Guys Have An Uncomfortable Experience With Two Wild Tigers

28th February 2018 UNDER Blog

Have you ever been in a situation where you were up close and personal with an uncaged tiger in the wild? For many people the simple thought of that is enough to send shivers down their spine but that is exactly what happened to two men on a motorbike in a forest in the Indian state of Maharashtra. The two men found themselves in an incredibly dangerous situation when they encountered not one but two full grown tigers standing just a few feet away from them.

The guys must have been in fear for their lives

Can you imagine the fear they must have felt? If not, well fortunately there is a video of the two men who were driving their bike in the Andhari Tiger reserve. Initially they come across the first tiger which is standing right in front of them and then a few minutes later, they realise there is a second tiger that is behind them. What is fascinating about the encounter is neither tiger attacked the men and they managed to leave the situation completely unharmed.

Two tiger encounters in the space of minutes

The video is about 5 minutes long and it shows the men sitting on their bike when a tiger walks right in front of them and then proceeds to stare them down for a while as the men remained motionless. A few minutes later the tiger decides to leave without attacking and the men must have breathed a sigh of relief. Minutes later a second tiger appears behind the men on the bike and the men just look back at it seemingly in shock.

Some people need common sense

These guys must be the luckiest guys in the world because for whatever reason, the second tiger also decided not to attack them and left them unharmed. Apparently, the video was shot by tourists who were sitting in the safety of their car just a few metres away from the guys on the bike. Thankfully the video did not end with anyone being killed, but perhaps it would pay for these guys to have a little more common sense and not ride unprotected on a bike through a tiger reserve?
