An Egyptian Man Plans to Fight, and Maybe Kill, a Lion

[SimpleChimp]

Didn't some country fight a group of midgets vrs a lion?

If not, they should get on that next. This is like old biblical times except the man probably isn't jewish, in Rome, or going to be saved by his god. I think if we can get enough people and a clothing company behind this, we might just be able to create the next UFC phenomenon.
i already got a name for it UCF (FDA) (Ultimate Crazy Fuckers (Fight Deadly Animals)).

I'd actually pay to see this...I am, for some reason, all for blood sports and would genuinely love to see this happen! Just you know, not to me... Anyway if I can I'm putting money on the man, imagine the odds!

Anyone here pissed their domesticated, much much smaller house cat off? That's painful enough. Seriously bad idea. Though I'd pay to see it, Definately a Darwen award.

Definately a Darwen award.

Oh yeah, front page material there.

I feel bad for the Lion though, being forced to fight and possibly killed.

Why? I seriously don't get this.
The man is walking into a cage, *unarmed*, with a fucking *lion*. Why would *anyone* care about the lion? The lion is going to rip this man to shreds in seconds, and animal rights activists are trying to protect it?

Not saying the man is right, but the lion has no chance of losing. Stop backing it up.

Why doesn't he just joining UFC or something.

Because, to be honest, I would rather take on a Lion than Kimbo Slice


I don't care if he got knocked out. Look how he wrecks these people.

But <url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Kazmaier>this guy won three years in a row.

Good point, but he is a past champion strongman, I don't think he'd be the current strongest in the world. The guy I mentioned is simply a current champion in his prime, he might not be the strongest, but he's won a major world-class competition two years running now, I only know about it because I've watched "World's Strongest Man" on TV a few times and find it pretty entertaining.

I was thinking about it because when he's talking about pulling airplanes and stuff... well as I mentioned, I've seen guys do things like that already.

He can have my money. I would totally watch this.

Yeah, well, just saying. I mean, my guy is only 58, and I'm sure he's still in great shape. he could prbably go back and win or place highly if he trained. Plus he had a lot of other placing wins (like your guy).


... And I'm sure both alone could beat this egyptian guy. XD

Strength doesn't really mean much when the lion can just rip through his muscles with it's claws.

"If America, or any other country, had a man with the ability to combat the strongest creature on the planet, they would properly promote him, and use his strength to their advantage."[/i]"

Errr....I think PETA is going to try and lynch the guy before he gets a chance to carry out his idea.

That's a MUCH better idea! I don't want this guy or the lion to get hurt, but I'd pay dearly to see this fellow rip through PETA members.

I would prefer this be done so that the lion would choose to attack him rather than him provoking a fight with it. However there aren't many Lions that are natural man eaters, however if he went to the savannah and hung around for a while I'm sure he'd attract some attention.

I think he does intend to start the fight or at least provoke the lion however, and while I respect he'll be fighting it with his bare hands, making the fight more than in the lions favour, though I haven't seen the the lion or him, so it could be a rigged fight or he could be insanely strong and a extremely skilled fighter, it's still a little dickish. If he's hoping to win on strength alone he better be able to stop and subdue 200Kg of high density fast twitch muscle.

However all that is ignoring the slightly bemusing logical leap he has made with "If I fight a Lion... Egypt will be saved!". Okay so he's just trying to do his bit for his country, but he does seem to think the world has a few thousand people in it and we all share stories about our brave heroic warriors. Sadly, the western world puts anyone who shows any remotely interesting talent on a pedestal and throws money and admiration at them. With the advent of reality television, the necessity for talent has dwindled.

Lions aren't the most powerful animal on the planet.
Tigers are bigger than Lions, and Ligers are bigger still, and none of those are the most powerful on the planet.
He's gonna die anyway.
In fact, I hope he does.

 

[Gaiseric]

Well...that's different.

Not everyday you hear about a guy wanting to fight a lion.
