That’s what this moron answered when the police asked him why he chose to jump from a Bronx Zoo sightseeing train into a tiger compound.
Just thought this was good for some chuckles. Maybe next time he’ll remember that philosophy and wildlife don’t mix well.
So this guy is part lemur? How the hell did he jump a 16 foot enclosure?

That train is on elevated tracks which parallel the fence, so it doesn’t take much of a jump to get over to the other side, if you are determined to do that.
And this guy still has time to breed…
Maybe the tiger looked hungry & he was unselfishly trying to help him. A true animal lover?
Maybe this will go viral and more people will do this…
I suspect the train is high enough so people can see in the enclosure.
There are no cameras on that side of the enclosure… man clears a 16 foot fence… is mauled by a 400 lb. Siberian tiger and is able to roll under an electric fence to escape? There’s something up with this story.

He said he wanted to “be one with the tiger.” In that case, it’s really too bad the tiger didn’t just eat him.
He would have been one with the tiger for a while, but only until the tiger crapped him back out.
I didn’t click on the story but this makes me mad. hope he gets fined (as well as any medical bills) and the money goes to …well, special treats for the tiger come to mind.
Now if it were with the lions, we’d have a pretty good idea of who it was.
He’s like a short-bus Spider Man.
Somewhat. Remember-“a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips”.
The fact that zoo workers chased off the tiger with fire extinguishers kind of helps in the whole “escaping” part.
“A tiger is just a big pussy that eats you.”
– Seen on some Internet joke list somewhere.
“…Some of those choices are really stupid.”

Though I am quite glad to see they have no intention to kill the tiger for acting like a tiger.
Though I wouldn’t be all butthurt if the guy dropped dead, honestly. What a freaking moron.

My lord, I wonder why he jumped into the tiger compound rather than the lion compound.
