That tiger is so smart, it stopped when the boy turned and looked at him, then rushed him as soon as the boy turned back around like *"this is my chance!"* 0:27

Its a Tiger of course it did, its caged, upset and being put on display for entertainment. Its not a domesticated pet folks.

Tigers always like to play Red Light Green Light.

Call me a helicopter parent or whatever but my only thought if that was my kid'd be : "What if the glass breaks ?" 😅

[jonstone]

The parents wouldn't have been laughing so hard if the tiger had broken through the glass. The unseen heroes of this video are the guys who made the glass strong enough to withstand a charging tiger. This reminds me of the guy who worked in a skyscraper with floor-to-ceiling windows. He liked to impress his co-workers by hurling himself against the glass. But one day, the glass broke, and he fell to his death.

That was pretty cool. Sean was really chill, considering. Hehe.

LOVE his name! 😜

For a tiger to be so powerful, they sure are cowardly. You wanna run up when I got my back turned. 🤦🏾‍♂️

LESSON: never turn your back to any animal larger than you.

*This boy was saved by the glass*

That’s what they do mate

Happy New year everyone!
And don't forget, that the famous roaring lion from MGM studios was from Dublin Zoo over 90 years ago.

*I want to pet the tiger so bad y’all don’t UNDERSTAND like-*

[mistymrning]

This just makes me sad for the caged tiger 😞

[prometheus]

Let's take away the glass and see how funny it is to taunt a tiger with your kid as a snack. Now THAT would be worth watching!

[janhavibhatt]

The tiger’s like : you got a death wish, 👽☠️cause I’m super hungry !!!!

[Tyler]

Instinct kicked in and then the Tiger seen what it was.. We all make mistakes..

[FaeQueenCory]

Honestly, that looks more like it was playing. That pawing motion is how cats "wrestle" not hunt.

[TBONESIDEOFLIFE]

Ole' tigger looks a little triggered when the glass stopped his feeding time short.

[naeemaurangzeb]

*The tiger saw a window of opportunity*

[blennergomes]

Now this news is falling off. Reporting nonsense as news

[RandallChase]

That cat acted just like my cat... when I look at it, it stops... so basically my cat wants to kill me!
