Quote:
Amy Sherman, who was sitting in the front row with her mother about 10 yards away from the stage, said the attack happened right after Horn introduced the tiger.
"Right after that, the tiger kind of turned its head and bit him on the arm," Sherman said. "Roy started taking a microphone and started whapping the tiger on the head."
The tiger, who was on a short leash, then dragged Horn to the ground and they struggled before the tiger dragged him behind a curtain by his neck, she said. Trainers on stage rushed to aid Horn, trying to subdue the tiger.

Now I'm no genius but perhaps whapping a fuckin tiger on the head with a microphone may not have been the best way to
stop him from attacking you. If someone was whapping me on the head I'd increase my attack too. I can imagine he was scared and it was very painful but someone who's as proffessinal as he is should have had more restraint and not freaked out like that especially with dozens of assistants surrounding him at all times. Had he not done that he mighta just had a messed up arm and not a near fatal experiance.
Asta!!
