All that "hey buddy" shit went out the window real quick 😂😂😂
Right!!
On God!! 😂😂😂😂😂 “Biiig lion.” You damn right 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ranvir Sabharwal Real Quick 😂
Like that cane stick is going to help him at all if the big cat attacks = NOT!!
The lion is thinking “stupid Canadian, he ain’t Kevin Richardson” 🦁
You got that one right !!!
HE'S A WANNABE KEVIN RICHARDSON BUT LITTLE DOES HE KNOW HE'S NOWHERE CLOSE TO HIM.
Even kevin Richardson will tell you that he would never do that in the wild - his lions are mostly all hand reared and the ones that aren't hand reared that he takes care of are behind a fence that Kevin doesn't cross - understand what he was trying to do but it takes a very long long time to gain the trust of a wild animal and you just don't know if that wild animal had a very bad encounter with a human that left all humans untrust worthy in BB's eyes
kevin raised the lions he spends time with--dave salmoni goes INTO THE WILD.
@@marilynwillett804 you mean bought them.
Did you ever stop to think that maybe those Lions don't want to be your friend?
Patrick Gragg 😂😂😂
Patrick Gragg this guy was out here talking about “hey buddy” 😂💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂
This pride was on the destroy list for being really aggressive.
Exactly, it takes two to be friends! 😁
I love how they panicked when the lion started moving forward. LOL
Dave: Today's a pretty calm day
Lion: believe that shit if you want!!!!
hahahah
😭😭😭😭😂😂😂
Lmaooo
😂😂😂
Hahahahaha lmfo!
Guy: **is about to be mauled**
Scientist: interresting
lmao
Fucking dead 💀💀💀😂😂😂
*I N T E R R E S T I N G*
Was looking to see if there was a comment on this...Started laughing when the guy was about to die and all you hear is...interesting...fk
In terms of research it is interesting. It goes againts the hypothesis..it would have been a important and interesting event in the paper..deep down the scientist was dissapointed.
🤦🏾♂️🤣😂
Imaging telling a lion “no” as if its about to listen to you 💀💀
Right or even understand him
"That lion either identified me as a source of food or a threat." Perfect chance to try and approach the lion again.
The lion looking at him and be like "what is this idiot doin here again"
In the lion's eyes, that silly man is neither prey nor threat but just a huge annoyance!
LMAO true
Nah. He'd definitely be prey
simplyprettyyedz kim LION will eat man , he’s just not totally sure about the situation .
Like the bears thought of grizzly man 😉
@@forpetessake3532 THE LION IS CONFUSED BECAUSE HE NEVER SAW A HUMAN ACT SO STUPID AND ANNOYING AS WELL. STUPID IDIOT.
Dave: biggg lion
Lion: what the hell
Lmaoo
YA the Lion had just one thing in mind...JUST COME A BIT FAR AWAY FROM UR CAR, I WILL HAVE A BIG BITE OF U.
😂
@@commonman6382 lol
The lion is asking itself “ why are they always white?”
They aren't. Review the video of the africans that walk up and take food from a pride of lions.
John Nguyen 😭😭😭😭😭😭
ro he well yeah that tribe is doing that for survival... that white boy got off the truck to taunt the 🦁 for no reason 😂
Good one I like that
😂
My cats are always judging me, especially when I’m doing something stupid. I can only imagine what tf this lion must be thinking 😹🦁
Imagine minding your own business when suddenly a man sneaks up on you with a long cane
Inyia_marie 😂😂😂😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 the lion is like: the fuck is he doing, this idiot, so annoying, got to teach him not to fuck with me, he got me fucked up😂
He'd get fucked up
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
and you hear "Big Lion..."
If you really had a relationship with Lions *** and gain their trust you don’t need to walk around with a stick !!! Just ask Kevin Richardson who does have a relationship with his Lions built on trust this guy knows nothing about Lions One day he might wish he did but it might be too late !!
Just imagine if the engine of that truck would just give up....
Then the lion will have two diners at once.
Nestor Jr. Abalos what about lions that attack elephants and giraffes... they are a lot bigger than lions.. tut tut
It has happened before. There are many horrific stories out in Africa on this type of misfortune
Then someone would've shot it.
💀💀💀💀fuck
Lmao why is he talking like that? The fact that he keeps saying “big lion” 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Kinda like a chant to keep his heart beat and chemical flow steady.
That lion looked so scary sitting like a boss in the bushes.
He is the king
LoL... When humans think they know what wild animals are thinking.
👍
He is alive dick head. Have you seen WOLVES are much worse. Now they are our best friends.
Smh I know right...its annoying as hell lol
5:59 lion: Did this fucken guy really come back
Lmao...
Umm..he's confident because he knows he can rip your arm off whenever he gets ready!!
Lion looking at both of this dudes arms like buffalo wings
The real way to find out whether or not you’re prey or a threat is to walk right up to him and give him a big hug
😭🤣😭🤣
😭😭😭😭🤣
Canadian boy grew up in such a safe neighborhood he came all the way to Africa looking for a violent death
Wait a minute. Why did he turn his back to the lion? Isn't that like the number one rule with these big cats?
Thats rule number two, number one is dont mess with these big cats.
Anyone would if a big fat lion was coming after them
That rule exists until a lion starts running. Once it starts running you need to leg it, facing it won't help you at all
@@molsy1768 running is one thing. sitting down with your back tuned is another! that's foolish
@@larrymcmillanjr.4001 not as foolish as standing off against a lion
I don't see the point of this.
Yep said the same thing.. guys a BONER
Neither does he
Scott Montgomery The lions were going to be put down I believe, because the dominant female of the Pride was very aggressive towards humans and the pride followed this example. The park couldn’t afford to move the lions but this show is about a veteran big cat behaviouralist attempting to teach the cats not to be aggressive towards tourist vans (normal wild lions coexist to some degree with the safaris). Interestingly Dave was successful here as now the lions are just annoyed and aggressive towards him and no longer show that energy to other humans
ha ikr
@Tiniest Violin oh ok.... makes money on youtube... Wow thanks lmao
6:05 the lion is like “why the hell is this guy back I dont like him”
Well, Dave is right about one thing, the lion is indeed a big boi
You can tell you dont know anything about lions rule number 1 never turn your back on a big cat👊👊👍
Don’t run
&
Allows but wind from animal to you
Remember lions communicate by tail
@@lifegoeson..9175 Lmao I'm dead
That is so true also I dont like when humans do this to wild animals because if that lion would had attack I'm sure they would had killed the lion.
equally bad are open vehicles.
@@jessie361293 you feel me and you the human went out fucking with it 💯👊wild fucking animal
Y’all can’t call him brave when he got guns behind camera Incase anything goes wrong.. he is not in danger the lion is
Right!
Right. I hope every hunter just dies..or the animal who they're hunting injures them, cause we need to stop killing animals, i'm no vegan but killing lions should be illegal, unless you actually have to.
@Eric Lee Wow.
@Eric Lee i honestly doubt that, they might care for the animals a whole lot but i don't think they'd give their actual lives for them, but that being said we won't know for sure until something like that happens and we get to somehow witness it
You really have no idea what you are talking about. Hitting a charging lion with a rifle in a high stress situation is extremely difficult. And even if you do hit the lion, if the shot placement isn't immediately fatal, the lion will just carry on mauling the guy.
Dumb Dave: "He's heard something, he's hunting, he's going towards something, I was just in the way..."
Wise Greg: "IIIIIIII wouldn't bet the farm on it"
Me:😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh my God was that really you??!?!?!? Was that really what you were like!?!?!?!?!?! Was that really what happened to you AFTER DUMB DAVE AND WISE GREG SAID WORDS!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! Uuuuujbsjdjdkdos
LION- dude Its like ringing a door bell and running away
After having watched Kevin Richardson, Dave Salmoni just looks like an amateur behaviouralist for TV drama. It's so insincere.
Having watched Kevin Richardsons TH-cam channel I can say he doesn't look relaxed around any lion, there is always a hard gulp or his eyes shifting. This doesn't show relaxation. Leave big wild animals in the *wild*
Yeah. Kevin has these things down pat. Also, he raised those Lions. This guy has not reached these wild Lions. They have NO allegiance to this man WHATSOEVER. He needs to stop before it turns bad.
Everyone, Kevin Richardson works with animals that he's developed relationships with over time, from cubhood. Dave Salmoni is working with wild, unknown, lions. Different aims and situations. It's apples and oranges.
@@KatherineUribe-1 correct plus Dave has also worked with big cats like Tigers where he has a similar relationship that Kevin has with Lions.
@@KatherineUribe-1 yea ur right now gimme ur number.
Hes like I'm chillen, what does this guy want again lol
What a majestic beast. Male lions are so fascinating. Hope lions never go extinct. Everything in his body language screams coward and prey.
They is going to extinction
WHO'S body screams coward? not the beast and not Dave at all.
@@marilynwillett804 youre on crack that guy was shitting bricks
@@quezgang no
@@marilynwillett804 Definitely Dave, are you kidding? He turned his back on a lion, you don't ever do that, plus he started to run, again something else you don't do. Dave screams coward and prey.
And now to the big question, "'what was the point of all this?"" taunting the lion and running away like a sissy, it's clear these guys aren't the brightest of crayons in the box....smh
🤣🤣
Now that's funny lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂killer
LION WASNT ''TAUNTED'' HES NOT A WHINEY LIBERAL.
while you sit safely in your baby mama's apt. eating her food,
"I wouldn't bet the farm on it" lolllllll
adam roberts 😀 😅
Lmao
My Mum used to say something about playing with fire 🤔
Dave : I know all about Lions.
Lion: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When lions start jumping into “open air safari tours” you know who to blame.
Adrenaline junkies come in many forms.
Joel Villarreal 😀
No one should be training any wild animal to lose their fear of humans. This is detrimental to their well being, even their life, as they may wander into human inhabited areas & end up being murdered.
SL Bellue Exactly!!
You are exactly right!
@@MarvoloSalazar First of all, there is no need to insult me. That just shows how immature you are. Second, you apparently have no knowledge of wild animals whatsoever. Try reading some legitimate material about what happens when humans interfere with wild animals. Definitely don't listen to your own misguided lack of knowledge. Calling people names also shows that you know nothing about this subject and to make yourself feel better you have to insult others instead of engaging in actual deep conversation.
@@slbellue6874 what the hell man? I was the one supporting you why are you tagging me? There's no need for me to read about them when i interacted with them on a daily basis for a long time
@@MarvoloSalazar I read your comment again. I misread your comment the first time. I am very sorry for my behavior toward you because of my misinterpretation. My original comment was meant for Ahmed guy, not you. I really am very sorry.
No sticks were harmed during the making of this video
2:28 that lions is like “yep I’m going in”
**NOT PLAYING W/ A FULL DECK!**
**HE AIN'T NO KEVIN RICHARDSON**
Lol I liked when his buddy says “interesting”
“I was just in the way” you know what happens when meat is in the way of a hunting lion 🦁
If you didn't raise the lion from a cub , what makes him think he can establish a relationship with it,crazy.
When you say NO, he should understand you. No means no, and if the lion still refuses to listen, then say please. Otherwise, tell him you call the Police ! Then he'll listen😂
brilliant
Intelligence at its finest
Lmao
Why are they bothering the lion in the first place?
I don’t get it. These animals don’t want to be bothered. You don’t ever see lions hanging out with other animals for a reason, they are considered lunch. Its like me passing a food stall after I ate, i’m not going to eat everything I see. The lion was relaxing, guys lucky to be alive.
They want to be in its belly.
@@animaladam5 Exactly. Pointless.
They are studying the animals behavior that is why.
For content, so they get a money.
Leave these animals alone. They deserve to be in the wild and do what they want, they don't need stupid humans doing everything. I seriously don't see the point in this, can anyone explain?
It’s part of the human condition man , we are animals too animals that crave knowledge and understanding of the world around us and we are going to study it that’s just how it is
I wouldn't even feel safe in that open jeep.
This should be called " How to get yourself killed in one minute" let lions BE!
he needs some training from the Lion whisperer
Drew the lion whisperer works with captive tame lions
Nothing like these wild beast or he’d be dinner too
I agree. 😁
@@hotepsalam Actually, wild lions, who have never seen humans will be afraid of them and actually run away from if charged as opposed to captive lions who have no fear of humans.
The real key thing to building a bond is knowing them from birth or from when they are very young. If you know them from that age you'll never get attacked unless you break 1 of 2 rules.
1. MOST IMPORTANTLY; NEVER TOUCH THEIR FOOD ONCE YOUVE GIVEN IT UP. You may only get a seat but once they see you cowed and be scared it could change the relationship forever.
2. If you see the lion is in a bad mood or something you're doing is putting it in a bad move just give it space.
If you do those things you will always be fine.
The lion whisperer lives with tame lions but he does know about lion behavior in the wild and in captivity. This guy is just an idiot.
@@hotepsalam they are still Wild animals.. you act like if they're in captivity they're domesticated like house cats
That guy is so annoying... "Hey Big Lion... Heeeyyy Big Lioonn"... no wonder the lion wanted to attack him
You're an idiot
What is the purpose of this 😂... like we really just tryna be friends with a Lion?
This is simply the most pointless activity and documentary. The guy is very lucky. Should he continue, he’s luck will not hold out. Moronic from everyone involved.
Just look at what happened to the bear idiot in Alaska a few years ago. I expect if this fool keeps this up, we will hear about what happened.
these are the type of morons that make white people look like idiots
For entertainment and for him adrenaline and bragging rights.
Lions attack with his own strategy and not in an artificial environment created by you. If lion attack, you'll damn get a chance to photoshoot and the very next blinking of your eyes will either be in a heaven or hell.
I watched this as a kid too and back then and even now I get the feeling that the scientist has a "i told you so" expression most of the time
Took a huge risk while accomplishing absolutely nothing. Nice job.
Haha oh please "he was hunting something,i was just in the way"
You just don't got it Mr. You should have formed a bond when they were cubs ...
And singing to Lions?!? I mean, cmon, is he dealing with a kitty cat?!?!
This is pure stupidity, you are way in over your head
😂😂😂
Lmao
LOL...Sheldon singing...soft kitty warm kitty little bar of fur...
Love that he talks to the lion as if he understands
Right. Those lions could care less about the "big lion" sounds he makes when approaching them. They have evolved to be apex predators over thousands of years. Their just deciding whether or not to make him a meal.
Im pretty sure he's doing that so that he wont surprise or startle the Lion. That could potentially be more dangerous.
@@easygrin1127 I don’t think so , because he still did it long after the lion knew he was there. He was talking to it like it was a house cat ffs!!
02:25 at this point I would have ran faster than road runner!! lmao Beep Beep!
Lion looked at him. "The nerve of this human". "Wait a minute oh I see the stick must be blind."
I thought it was dave salmon, that’s why those lions are glaring at him...
You shouldve tried your stunt on Mapogo Lions
Hell literally be mauled so hard 😂
could be hes last stunt lol
Yeah Mr T wouldn't put up with that shit.
@@timothyfrancis8769
LMFAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAAOAOAO!!!!!!!
😂😂😂
Where's Kevin Richardson, when you really need him.
LMAO 😂
I don't really know what their intentions are, they should just leave the poor thing alone
@@sokoyaadedolapo5321 yeah what do u think he's doing it for fun?
Dude these lions were at a threat of being put down as they were extremely aggresive towards visitor.
This dave guy had balls of steel man. Trying to make a pride of wild lions adapt or atleast tolerate humans presence.
You should do your research . He literally risked his life so that these lions atleast have a chance and they are not put down.
@@sokoyaadedolapo5321 we all know kevin would never fuck with wild lions. All his animals are raised by him from when they are cubs. And they are also raised in a controlled environment.
Unlike these wild lions who are out there that actuaaly hunt. Kevin doesn't have guts enough to pull a suicidal plan like this guy did bro.
@@samurai15401 shut the fuck up lmao he bold cause he got guns fucking virgin ass weaboo
1:57 my face watching this entire video.
When you say a confident cat, you can work with. What kind of work are you actually planning to do with the "big boy" ? Also i don't think he wanted to tell you go away, he wanted to tell you wait. I never had human yet.😂 Lion whisperer want to be.
Hahahaha! I wouldn’t bet the farm on it. 😂
Hutchy 4dogs haha
TH-cam videos of the lion whisperer, Dean, Antle, and Olga of taigan national park are like latest smartphone with new features. This video looks like first ever introduced mobile phones like Motorola and Nokia.
I like the way he says "I wouldn't bet the farm on it". I like his voice.
Hes got a cane..stop worrying!
😩😂
Well it worked for bo peep and her sheep 😂
“ impress a lion by ....braking a branch “ then baaaacking away lol
The man is risking his life. I hope he learnt something valuable that is worth taking this risk.
"How many times do i have to teach you this lesson old man"
what is the point of this? what was he tryin to prove or show? no one is going to do this
I hate the nervous Hey lion. Big boy drawl as much as the lion itself. Lucky he escaped the big bite. Totally unnecessary intrusion of the privacy of the king.
The most difficult thing to cope up with large carnivorous animals is that they are brutal and mad when it comes to food and threat. So even if humans try to attack back their madness will cause a sheer defeat to human side. Same for even Elephants, if lion attacked one, the elephant gonna die for sure
He definitely was about to get eaten, the the cat was like “nah”. The next day:
Dave: Hey Big Boy
Big Boy: oh he wants to be lunch, lunch.🤣🤦🏾♀️
Notify me when he's a goner. Thanks
As sure as ram is mutton it's gonna happen sooner or later.
Me too😂😂
Same
Interesting experiment academically, but teaching lions to lose their fear of humans is probably not a hot idea as numerous attacks at zoos, quasi zoos like the lion park in Jo'burg and "walk with tame lions" safaris have demonstrated.
With the massive damage we've done to animals and nature and you worry about humans?
@@TheSilverGate I'm going to let you take your time and apply a little deductive reasoning to work through what happens to an animal that has become a danger to or even attacked a human.
@Leon Erin There's a clip floating around TH-cam of a guy being eaten by lions in front of his family that seems to be edited from a 1975 film or advert which to me looks very staged, but who knows. (th-cam.com/video/uPB9j_Pr1Ns/w-d-xo.html)
6:14 I like that suspense music in the background.
6:45 human breaks branch "its a bold goodbye!"
Lioness: what is he doing hun?
Lion: idk babe but don't make eye contact I think there's something wrong with him pretend his not there so he'll go away.
I noticed Dave commenting on how big of a man he is, and he does it more than he should-it makes him sound over-confident. To a male lion, a big man is a big feast-nothing more.
he has a small brain also lol lions attack 2k pound buffalo, he is just a self absorbed jerk-- if a lion attacks him for invading its territory and is shot the whole crew should hang from 1 of those trees
Yeah. Nothing the lion's canines can't pop open.
While I admire courage in any form this is so ridiculously risky. Has he ever seen a lion run at full speed? If that lion wanted to get him from that distance it would be over in a matter of a few seconds. He'd hardly have time to say 'Oh shit".
Imagine minding your own business at the park and suddenly a tasty bbq chicken wing comes up on you with some ranch sauce and starts mocking you. With his other chicken wing pals nearby 😂
Lion: Why is this Big Mac following me? I'm not into junk food.
@0:21 Ole boy was like..”This Mf’er”💯😂😂😂😂😂
A close encounter and pretty intimidating. We were in open jeeps in the Indian jungles of Tadoba and close encounters with large male tigers was an unforgettable experience. We were lucky to film it.
"The next day the big cats bellies are full" ... and Dave is still walking.
He needs to have a beer and conversation with the Grizzly Man.
Thank You for sharing with me Dave
I’m on the Lions side though
The lion wasn't even heading in his direction.. All these shows create drama from nothing... Why not show a wide angle shot of the whole incident lol.. There was half a second footage of him and the lion sharing the same frame
"I woouuldn't bet the the house on it, buuut lets-find-out-anyway!" lmao
“Interesting “, let me find out the old man know he ain’t bout shitt. 😭😭
Lion 🦁 is thinking “ This guy looks like a kolbasa I wonder how it taste”
I think I just had a dangerous close call. With some CLICKBAIT!!
This really mirrors SpongeBob and Squidward's relationship 😂😂
Simple lion psychology. It meant to attack. It just pretended to carry on to save its pride.
A Canadian talking about Lions... listen to the Africans - they don’t mix with them lmao.

Fun Fact: Americans conservationist are the only reason Lions and Tigers still exist in the wild otherwise they would of been hunted to extinction decades ago by Chinese and African poachers.
Subsaharan Africans eat what is called Bush Meat which includes Chimps,Gorrillas,Lion and zebra meat in huge traditional markets.

"He crossed the line to prey like behaviour". No. He run for his life and good for him because the lion called his bluff.
I remember this show like 10 years ago
Big boys look in the beginning said it all, my dog has that exact same look when he’s hunting, sizing up his moment. Not sure what this dude is trying to prove. Leave these majestic cats alone. We are in their faces enough as it is.
