A hapless tourist almost had his arm bitten off by a lioness after sticking it through the bars of her cage and trying to give her a stroke.
Pieter Nortje, 55, was being given a guided tour of the lions at a game lodge in South Africa to celebrate his 10th wedding anniversary when he almost lost his arm.
The shocking incident was caught on camera by his wife Ilze in Virginia, Free State Province, before being circulated online.
