NEW YORK (AP) -- A man who was mauled by a tiger at the Bronx Zoo is facing arrest after telling investigators he wanted "to be one" with the 400-pound beast, police said Saturday.
David Villalobos also claimed that despite his serious injuries, he was able to pet the tiger before zookeepers came to his rescue, said New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne.

He almost became one with that tiger, inside its stomach!
Laugh....if the guy lives, he’s got an automatic case for SSDI or SSI, based on whether the nut job ever had a job that contributed to SS or not. You’re looking at $2500/month for mental and/or physical disability....a tough way to circumvent the process but the gravy train rolls on thereafter...
Darwin Award ping. :)
And that, folks, is the prime product of our fine modern education and indoctrination system.
He thought the Disney movies were documentaries.
He didn’t die,so he can’t get the award.. Honorabel mention though.
“I wanted to be one with the tiger”
Idiot. If they hadn’t of gotten you out of there, after about 24 hours, you would have been a “pile from the tiger”.
Sounds like the tiger shared his ‘feelings’.
I know. :)
Attempted Darwin Award anyways
How’s that New Age Spiritualism/Easter Mysticism working out for you?
Since his name is Villalobos, maybe he should have tried the wolf pen instead.
Sorry pal, it can’t happen. Even if you get eaten by the tiger, he will crap you out. You will be one with the pooper scooper, which would probably lend meaning to your existence.
The mauling happened Friday afternoon in the Wild Asia exhibit featuring a train with open sides that takes visitors over the Bronx River and through a forest, where they glide along the top edge of a fence past elephants, deer and a tiger enclosure.
Passengers aren't strapped in on the ride, and Villalobos apparently jumped out of his train car with a leap powerful enough to clear the 16-foot-high perimeter fence.
So they have a train with OPEN sides where passengers AREN'T strapped in? And it goes at least 16 feet in the air...did they think that nobody would ever try to jump from it? How about kids falling to the ground?
liberal mentality much like what thier trying with thier muzzie friends while trying to convince us.
Did anyone bother to ask him if he voted for Obama in 08?
“He didn’t die,so he can’t get the award.. Honorabel mention though.”
The Darwin Award does not require the awardee to die, merely be rendered incapable of reproduction. So, if he had lost the family jewels, he would still have been a contender. Usually winners in this category are drunks who absent-mindedly piss on the third rail.
