He almost became one with that tiger, inside its stomach!

LOL! Right you are! The only way to become "one" with a tiger is for the tiger to eat you, which they will be glad to do, btw. This is right up there with the two geniuses who decided to taunt a tiger at the SF zoo a few years back and the thing vaulted over the enclosure fence and hunted them down. I believe one of those boys was killed. Still, dumb thing to do.

Tigers are beautiful. Tigers are deadly.

This reminds me of an incident at a zoo up in Alaska someplace. It was at least a decade ago, probably longer; but, some tourist decided to get "closer" to the polar bear and climbed over the fence. Well, the polar bear got real close, to the point where he got the guys shoe. There is a picture of the bear with the shoe dangling from his mouth. I had a friend at the time who's husband worked in Alaska (he was a doctor) and she had bought a sweatshirt with that photo on it and the caption: "Send more tourists, the last one got away."

Some people just don't think about consequences before they act.
