Facebook video showing a man has climbed into the tiger enclosure and being attacked by tiger.

Mixed reports of tiger being shot (unconfirmed)

Shame about the tiger.

[Mr Penguin]

And the 2026 Darwin Award goes to...

[Sir Keith Stormer]

Why not just shoot the idiot and leave the tiger alone.

[Fonzey]

Just seen video, absolute moron.

Video stops before any real harm comes to the guest, so really hoping the tiger hasn't been shot.

Obviously if it rips the guys arm off after the camera stops rolling, I can see why they wouldn't have a choice but a real shame.

Idiot.

[surveyor]

Local reports are now that the shots were gas canisters thrown in to bang which successfully scared the tigers back to their enclosure.

Park closed for the rest of the weekend.

Bloke is an idiot.

So much this.

Just be sure to use a very high velocity bullet on the idiot so it passes clean through, wouldn't want the tiger damaging a tooth on a bullet stuck in the corpse.

And already plenty of social media posts claiming it was “boat person scum” when the video circulating shows that he is clearly a idiot all of our own making

Could be a good opportunity to demonstrate to any white supremacists that white people are not always intellectually superior.

I like how he tried to give it a good telling off

[Landlubber]

Wonder if he'll get this week's Darwin award to take home.

Sshhh Trump will hear that someone else is getting an award instead of him. Oh wait…carry on!

Thoughts are with the tiger(s) at this distressing time.

Impressively, jumping into the tiger enclosure wasn't the stupidest thing he did today.

Its times like this that show people's true feelings on mental health. Theres the big show and dance from all walks of life and companies promoting it when in true fashion next to no-one gives a fk.

Its world mental health day and most people just wish that the person was shot and not the tiger.

It's NP&E.

It's always been an empathy vacuum when it comes to issues like that.

Even if the guy has mental health problems?

Exactly what I was thinking. I have tried to commit once, it’s not always planned, mine wasn’t, I just clicked and wanted life done. No doubt if I was next to a tiger enclosure and I had a turn like I did I’d have probably have been on the news as well.

If it is mental health related I hope to god he gets the treatment he needs.

Its the same on any social media, no one truly cares. It just looks good to care.

I did like his cheeky finger wagging at the tiger. He's either mentally ill or the worlds bravest man.
