    I've been robbed twice at gunpoint, once in my home and once at an ATM. I lived in Los Angeles for 50 years; it's a common story there. I did exactly what you did; I was courteous, compliant, figuring everything is replaceable except my life. Insurance can replace goods, money, but it cannot give you back your life. Very glad we're both here to tell our stories!

    I walked out of a party once to witness a 6'5" guy whom had done time for killing a cop, he had a gun to a good friend of mines head being that I was quite intoxicated my first reaction was to slap him in the face only to have the gun turned over to me right between my eyes. Friends inside the party heard the slap and came running out so the guy immediately put the gun away and took off but let me tell you it was the scariest moment of my life! I only wish I had been sober and had more sense not to slap a huge guy with a gun in his hand... probably the most stupid thing I ever did in my life.....

    I've been shot at through a window while asleep in my bed with 4 bullet holes in the comforter and not a single bullet even grazed me. Happened 15 years ago. Nightmares off and on first 6 months after it happened. They couldn't get in the house to rob me so they decided to leave me for dead. God had other plans that night.

    1988 at age 29 I had a ruptured brain aneurysm. Not one time when in hospital did I think I was going to die. First 4 weeks icu than 2 weeks on regular floor. It ruptured on a Friday night. Called 911 paramedics took me to ER was told I had the flu and sent home. Monday afternoon I ended up in same ER. But this time they figured it out. I've always thought ok I survived. Than joined a support group and found out 1 in 50 people have a brain aneurysm and once you've had one you're 20% higher risk for another one. I got scanned September last year and found a 2mm brain aneurysm. I had a cat scan few weeks ago. I need to find out still if it's same size. I'm survivor strong.

    I recently began watching your videos. I have to say, you are such an enlightened person. You might not agree, maybe you consider yourself inexperienced, but I learn so much from listening and watching you. I think you are so knowledgeable, and I appreciate all of the knowledge you share in all of your videos. I have recently felt this "rehearsal" way of thinking, and I think it's amazing how you are able to attract these kind of things into your life when you prepare for them. I am 20 years old and always thinking about what kind of things I am going to do in the future. Sometimes I feel like it's too late for certain goals, like my deadline has passed. Listening to your videos makes me feel like I can still strive for what I truly believe I can do. You are an inspiration to me and probably many others, please keep sharing your experiences.

      They bought phones earlier in the morning, so if Michael really wanted to go after them he could. Go to his records and invoices to see which phones were sold and get the imei number which the police would be able to trace when used. They should be able to eventually track where and who is using the phones.

I am a new subscriber and I am become very attached to your tigers since last Friday( 3 days ago) when you first appeared on my TH-cam feed. I have laughed with you when playing with Enzo and Ozzy and little Diego. And when you took Diego to meet Kito the Siberian tiger. I also cried very much when Ozzy got sick and then passed away. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey of discovery and caring for you tigers, dogs, cats and the crazy little monkeys. Best wishes for continued health and success, from Canada

    That would completely traumatize myself and my family. I'm already kind of paranoid about that stuff as is, but you're lucky those guys didn't have the intent to kill. Just scare and intimidate. That's why it's imperative to own a gun if your home is being invaded by the bad sort that would love nothing more then to inflict harm onto you and your family. I think being prepared for bad scenarios and circumstances is fine, but don't become obsessive over it. Good video Mikey. :)

    I agree completely. If we think negative thoughts, we open our lives up for negative things to happen.

    These concepts of "preparation" you've mentioned have actually become quite popular new-age philosophies commonly called the power of visualization or "law of attraction." Like the story of how you got Enzo - you built the enclosure for a large animal before you even knew what animal it would be, and by doing that first you called Enzo to you through the power of visualization and attraction. Don't worry you're not crazy, other people have noticed similar phenomena in their lives :)

  • @wheelmanstan

    Thanks for the story, I agree with most of what you say. I try to prepare for what I can prepare for, but we can only prepare for so much. A certain lifestyle welcomes certain negative things and focusing on the bad won't help bring about any good. You want to protect yourself from all the bad until one day you're living in a cage. Or you're that king in his castle. With a castle no bad guys can get in, but you can't get out..so you starve to death anyway. So what's the point? Do you want to live an uneventful life in a zoo because you fear something eating you in the wild, or do you want to live free until eventually you have one bad day and something eats you?
    Don't worry about answering comments, it can become addictive and take up tons of your time.

    Its so interesting to to see Michael have such a love and respect for animals, watching him try to save every one he can, But at the same time he knows these cats require a high amount of protein, meaning he has to feed them such large quantities of meat. He seems very well rounded, and he definitely understands that he can only do so much and that he has to pick and choose his battles.

    Yr place is set up perfectly...the Tigers can come right up to the house! Do u have any footage looking down on place, like from a drone?
    U did an outstanding job making yr place with an eye to effiency...the interior floor is perfect as the tiles are huge and so less grout lines and easily sanitized.
    The whole place is perfect for the animals...I only have 4 house cats but it's a lot of work.
    I've just begun making raw diet for them.
    Last night was my 3rd batch and it took me 3 hours!
    I'm using only a little ninja grinder...might go quicker if I ever get a meat grinder!
    Right now only one of my cats eats it but she loves it so much I will just keep doing it and eventually maybe the others will start to eat it too.
    For me it is a rare and wonderful experience to watch a video like this and find healthy animals and a human so obviously connected and in tune to their awareness.
    I thoroughly enjoy listening to yr stories, too.

    I HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOUR VOICE EVERYDAY NOW. It makes me genuinely happy. I can hear in your voice that you have been through some really bad shit and now because of it you know how to be happy. And that is how you speak of real purposeful happiness.
    Unfortunately I know what you mean by "you call that stuff on you" I was so angry with someone in my life at one time actually I was EXTREMELY angry at two or three people that I wanted them to die. After what they put me through my whole life I was sick of it and I wanted them dead...TRULY DEAD. After about a week maybe even two of Feeling that horrible true feeling my phone rang. 2:12 pm September 13, 2017 I heard my youngest son David talking then I heard him screaming something like, *_"no its not true it's not true... no no no."_* I knew Right Away someone had died because of me
    and it wasn't who I was angry at. It was someone close to me Because the extreme anger I had went *NOWHERE* it stay here with me and my family. It was my oldest son that was dead.
    People can tell me whatever they want about how he died and what caused it started months ago but I know I did it. It is a very hard thing to live with and THAT is why I need to watch your channel...to hear your voice...so I can make myself purposely happy again soon. I am not walking around moping all the time. I do laugh sometimes. But I have to get over what I did so that I can live again. I can't change what I did but I change what I am doing. So if anyone is reading this do not think that doesn't happen...well think whatever you want but do not do what I did. Keep anger and aggression out of your life. Because the only one it ends up hurting will be you.

    The historical re-creation/walkthrough of a potentially fatal armed robbery combined with a documentary of small cats chowing down on heaps of succulent raw meat is one of the more surreal and most enlightening things the intarwebs have ever brought before me. That's not even getting into the narration! I think this is awesome.
