Info from Licensor: "With the students a safe distance away, Dylan drives closer to the kitchen to get eyes on all the cats. It is quite unusual for the lions to come so close to the buildings - and not a place where we want them to get too comfortable. The female seems to be using the usually undesirable close proximity to humans and the buildings, to try and get the very horny male to leave her alone :) He seems quite determined however and decides to stick close to her to guard his mate. Male Lions have a small window of opportunity to successfully pass along their genes - so this is serious business and he won't give up too easily. Dylan eventually leaves the safety of his bakkie (Landcruiser pick up) to get into the kitchen. While he is joking about making a cup of coffee :) the aim is also to disturb the lions and get them to move off in order to get the camp safe for students, who are waiting outside to come in for coffee and breakfast. Many people are asking why there are no doors here and why Dylan is approaching the angry lion! Disturbing the lions is the only way to get them to move off - we can't have them occupy the main camp area all day, it will not be safe for students, so Dylan eventually goes closer to discourage them to back off and move away. Having observed them for quite some time on that morning, he was well aware that the male is only being protective of the female. He is not hunting for food, or looking for a fight - he is simply warning Dylan to stay away. This does not mean that there is no risk and that it was not a hairy situation - but Dylan understood the risk and acted accordingly - please keep in mind that Dylan is a trained professional with years of experience working and living in wild areas - DONT TRY THIS YOURSELF. Wild animals do NOT like human company for the most part and almost all animals can be shouted down or chased away with sufficient noise and standing your ground (this is true here in Africa at least). It is also true during daytime hours - if this was at night, we would not have allowed anyone to be on foot anywhere near them. Wild animals will only come into close proximity to humans of the benefit outweighs the risk for them - the elephants that leisurely come to drink from our water tanks are a good example of this. The female lions have moved through the camp a few times already - we are aware of each other, but mostly we leave them alone and they leave us alone. This is possibly also why the female in the clip is so relaxed while the male that does not easily come into the camp is more on guard. Dylan eventually made his coffee and after about 40 minutes managed to convince them to move off and leave the camp."

Wow, I could imagine the sound of his roars would vibrate your body!
Those were growls, not roars.

His roar sends chills up my spine.
Yes, same thought
Don't you mean his blls?
That was like a Kenworth Truck starting up close 😊
Salute to whoever recorded this, balls of steel.
I don't think they had much of a choice
I could hear some heavy breathing towards the end. Someone was ore than a little be shook up methinks. You would be lol. That's a huge terrifying lion, with a lioness in the background.
@@PumpkinHoardthe good thing is he/she is in the kitchen, we know the are some knife or tools as a weapon

He willingly left his car and went into the building (that doesn’t have doors) to make coffee
There are about 8 lions around the house
😂
No need to say another word. This lion means business.
scary is its mate... male lions are tamer than lionesses...
"Honey, we're moving now. No, no, no. No time for an explanation, just pack your bags and get in the car..."
😂😂
"But what about the cats?"
On second thought, leave everything. Just get in the car.
😂😂😂😂😂
That roar is unbelievable
That first roar. 🦁😳Absolutely terrifying. And that's just from watching the video from the safety of my home! It's astounding that a male lion could be so aware of the human presence, and openly aggressive towards it, yet on countless safaris, the lions completely ignore open-top cars filled with humans. Amazing.
I think the last roar was the worst!
He was just being defensive, he wouldn't attack unless he felt threatened.
Interestingly, I just watched a video on that very subject. Lions don't attack those in the open top cars because a) they are used to the cars being there. Safaris have been going on for over a century now. They will have been around the entire lions lifetime. b) the lions don't see the humans as being a separate entity to the vehicles, they just see one larger creature (the car) that is non-threatening. If any of those inside the car stand or get out of the car, then the lion will see them as a separate entity and that's when they become prey.
Lions possibly regard cars as being non-edible parts of nature similar to rocks and 'buildings'. They possibly regard those monkey like creatures that grow out of the back of these 'creatures' as being likewise non-edible.
I'm guessing the lion reacted to the person in the kitchen as he could see the person within the large space inside the building and realised it was separate from its surroundings. i.e. Prey.
He was aggressive because a lioness was in heat near him. This video is the shortened version. Plus the man kept walking towards him which the cat took as aggression. When you are in a vehicle you are up high and not moving, which makes a difference.
BODY LANGUAGE IS SO IMPORTANT!!! I knew his roar etc was coming because his tail started swaying and mouth moving. He was entering hunt mode.
Good thing for that chicken wire window 😅
But would it be sufficient?!

Isn't the door to its left open?
Excuse me, I gotta go change my pants

Hahaha

Ha ha ha
Why....You didn't wash it ?
Somebody has to Tell that Lion that he could walk arround the house and find an open door. 😊
💀
Nooooo 🥺😟😥😢😰😨😧
Open door ! Its freaking to realize that as soon as the lion notices it & figures out how to get in (instead of roaring from outside of the window net), would literally make anyone sh*t in the pants.
If the door opens in the house , one can quickly sneak in & close it if can muster courage.
If the door opens out, getting it in within a split second without catching the attention of the lion seems a distant possibility, let alone even trying it out in first place.
On a side note, That lioness in the background makes me feel there maybe more around which probably the person inside may not be even aware of. Simply Eeriee !😢😮😢😮
😂😂
I just evolutionarily regressed back to a helpless ape accepting his fate as a lions lunch.
It’s probably a fenced off area hence one side of house open other has security
Holy cow this is terrifying even through my phone lol😅

El problema es el león
I flinched when the lion roared, I'm 1000s miles away watching on CZcams at a later date.
Meanwhile the cameraman a few feet away in an open building didn't flinch!
Facts 😂😂😂
V8 engine . What a fantastic roar .
V 12
More like V rgin, in real life would be that much menacing it make you come back your verginity
I like that he made the little lip smacks like cats do when they're upset, must have been fairly nervous.
I thought the same thing. I wonder what the cameraman was doing? The lion was startled for a reason.
If the person filming ran or looked nervous I'm sure the lion would have found a way inside
@@JQueen-ul5eh
Maybe he had an elephant mask
The moment he bared his teeth and snarled. My God.

That person remained calm because that person most likely had a weapon of some sorts!
Oh my goodness! This is really terrifying indeed. Glad everyone is safe.
Get off your phone if youre that scared. Go live a real life
@@heySTUPIDassseriously why u being so rude
I hope they all died because of his stupidity they got no barriers on the Windows they got no doors and seen the whole video he even leave his car door open and students in another car with no roof this man should be in prison for putting people's lives in danger
Isn't the door to the window's left open? Also the door through which he entered? Can't the lion come around the house why was he outside? God I have so many questions. This could have gone wrong in a dozen different ways.
This is old video
I was wondering the same thing. The person was outside and the lions were outside. That’s too close for me! Nope! 😮😅☠️
The person made the video for social media views but they going to be lions lunch one day...lol
@Anthony Piercy what does that have to do with what he asked lol
@@rhyno514 yes in the longer version , there are lions all around him , but he knows what to do , or knew to keep calm , he closed the door behind him self in the kitchen , again IT IS AN OLD VIDEO
a lion's tail is FULL of information and clues when trying to read them.
That first roar and mock charge startled me... thanks for sharing.
:47 His roar was so terrifying even the lioness's started running lol. Even looked like they forgot they all came together then remembered 😁
It's not that she was afraid of his roar, but that she was afraid of whatever he was roaring at.
Those are growls not roars.

@@TONEakaSHOW well it’s ok to inform people cause most don’t know a damn thing lol idc
@@IceBurg375 Just so you know, your comment didn't add anything to this but hey good for you 🤔
What a crazy thing to experience!
I remember years ago when I worked at my local animal shelter, I was cleaning one of the cages of this very large dog, when all of a sudden he lunged and growled at me. I was so terrified, my legs started wobbling and I was frozen in place before I finally ran out. I imagine encountering an angry male lion is like that x10,000!! Scary stuff. Thanks for sharing!
I had a tiger charge a leap at me, but luckily, he bounced off the chain link fence between us. Don't think that chicken wire would've stopped him!! I also froze...
the big dog that charged u would not stand a chance against a lion
a Lions bite force is 650 pounds/square inch (psi) while a Rottweilers bite is only 328 pounds/ square inch
and lions are much stronger and can take on a large buffalo or can defend against 4 wolves or hyenas by itself
@@williamallen7386 Terrifying! Why do we always freeze in situations like that??
@@simonjohn70 wow breaking news
@@malloryg4251 when our brain decides we can't take on the threat nor can we escape we lose control of our body.. source - Google
That Lion was definitely scared and in full defense mode, even while being able to easily kill a Human lol.
That tail swipe...Wow!! The king arrived in all his glory!
This is the scariest lion vid on the internet. I was never afraid of them until I saw this video.
Yeah that mofo is foul for sure fuk
Not nearly as scared as the Lion was in the video though.
The lion is guarding his love.. Now understood why it behaves this way!
"Honey, whats for dinner?" "Us"
"Yeah Boss, I'm going to be a bit late for work."
That is CRAZY!! ….BUT AMAZING! I’m glad no one was harmed!😇🙏🏾
that was actually scary, my headphones was on quite high volume and when the king roared with all the fury, my ears got the full effect aha
My volume wasn't high but somehow I got ringing in my ears from it. Must be like a hard punch to the eardrums upclose.
Repost from 5 years ago. Hes being protective of a lioness, laying by wall.
Yeah this video is old
I knew it
I thought so.
JEEEEEEZ, If I was in that house I would be terrified, yikes.
Reminds me of the first time we went to the lion park in Johannesburg and I was talking to my sister who was driving this tiny car we were in, and I turned around and right there, outside the window, literal centimeters away, was a lion just staring at me and breathing hard. The window was closed so there was no real danger and he'd only gotten up from under the tree because the caravan of cars had stopped because we were all watching the lionesses lounging in the trees, but our car had ended up a little too close to where the cubs were playing and he got nervous.
You never appreciate the true power of a lion until its face is right next to your window and u can see its breath.
We looked at each other, me close to peeing my pants and emitting silent screams, and I'm pretty sure I saw a look of disgusted pity like 'pull yourself together, ma'am; at least die with *some* dignity' before he decided his kids were in zero danger from pathetic old me and he strolled back under his tree.
That's an amazing story! Thanks for sharing. (Or being able to share it!)
😂😂😂😂😂I had a similar experience at the same place and I was with my gf
I'm glad you didn't know at the time that he could have easily broken the window 😂
@@lungamazeka2465that time,your gf would be f**ked without you f**king her ...
I never understood why anyone would wanna go on one of those. I get that lions are amazing to observe but is it really worth it? I’m sure the lion could have gotten into the car if it really wanted to, even with the windows up.
Thanks for clarifying in your description. It brings me some measure of calm.
I thought the usual behaviour for the lions would be to avoid human settlements especially because they can be too noisy and loud noises scare or agitate them animals. Seeing one so close to a dwelling made me nervous - lions are not known to hunt in human settlements - but I see the description says it's likely because he was guarding a female who was using the human settlement likely in an effort to get rid of him.
Never saw "Ghost in the Darkness" huh?
They're talking about "usual" behaviour.
Most lion attacks on humans are due to depletion of their natural prey, and lone, often sick male lions who are too slow to hunt anything other than us lumbering, oblivious idiots 😂
Yeah us humans are like french fries to them lions and ven crocs. Their "burgers" are wildebeest, elephant, hippo, rhino, antelope, etc.
Now tigers on the other hand are specialized in eating people 😮. That said they treat us like another carnivore too.@peterclarke7240
It's not lion in kitchen window but it's kitchen in lion's kingdom
Even the lioness got scared...
This is what a king looks like.
Kitties - would have thrown some cat biscuits out for them 😻
its just a little baybee...
The reaction of that lion demonstrates how truly terrifying humans are. The guy with the camera was doing nothing and the big male lion basically pooped itself.
I know man some lions are so stupid humans are known for being unpredictable
So close encounter, very close. One has to be very calm from inside to stand that roar.
The video maker obviously knew that the camera man never dies.
At first I thought the lion was filming the video.
I would never leave my house if I lived there
That's a temporary shelter or hut for journalists/cameramen when making docs or films maybe even just camping. It's not a house that someone lives in full time, no.
Him barking just made me jump lol
Awww 😊 he's wagging his tail. He's so happy to see you ❤
For a lion, wiggling tail means he see you as a threat and would like to fight you
@@akanshasaha6128 do you actually think I genuinely meant that clearly aggressive lion is happy to see the guy like a dog would be? 😐

"Cameraman more dangerous than wild Lion" - universal truth, proved again
Exacto! Es un video raro...el hombre caminando con toda la casa abierta y el león atrás...mmm... Saludos 👋👋👋
He is not in your kitchen, you are in his dining area.
Damn, that was so tense for me. Its nice to hear that the lions moved on.
Camera guy zoomed in after the Lion saw him and growled . I would’ve died. My soul would would’ve left my body.
Lion: Food is already in the kitchen. All I need to do is get in there and start cooking.
Great footage...wow seems like he knew you were coming 🦁😵💫
beautiful lion
When they wag their tale it means they are friendly and just want to play.
Wow that roar is terrifying
Let me guess, this is part of the $20k to $50k safari experience lol
it should cost no more than 4k for an african safari
Yeah. A $50k experience to 💩 your pants 😁
Wow, is he more aggressive because the females and Cubs are in the background..? It would be interesting to see what the reaction would have been if he was on his own on patrol..I wouldn’t want to find out 😂..The best one this year for me that clip 👍
He’s aggressive because he’s a lion, lmao
Female in heat specifically
Well if it wasn't obvious, the Lion is in full defense mode since it's surprised to see a potential threat show up and is ready to defend himself and the lionesses behind him.
What a lovely deep roar🦁💥
I don't know how the cameraman didn't shake at the roar. When I was watching, I got such a fright that my body shook
Majestic definitely💫 but everytime I see them the only thing in my mind is... imagine the life of the herbivores in the forest or animals on the street. 🥺✌️
Annnnnd....... NOPE.!!
Their eyes glow during the night imagine seeing glowing eyes of a bloodthirsty beast and hear those roars in night time
You can see the cat got nervous not because he was scared but because he’s probably never seen a human before and didn’t know if it was strong or weak
The only sensible comment in this section.
They're on a game farm. Those lions have definitely seen humans before lmao. In South Africa, you can pretty much go to multiple game farms within a few hours from a major city and see lions. Source: I'm from SA.
Never seen a human before? 🤣 That lion had seen humans every day because the park rangers was there to protect it/them (and the tourists). He videographer was a ranger and that kitchen was the ranger station. Go to sleep, kids.
No
I also see cats, outside my kitchen window too. However, the cats I see, are my annoying neighbours cats 🐈 🙄😂
You know how you can tell that lion ain't fucking around? ... the lionesses in the back went away immediately.
lol best comment here. Lionness got the hell out of there.
All cats are hunters and will stay watching for HOURS!
Lion roars are underrated
This reminds me of when I used to work at the deli. Lots of things to do before we opened the doors for business... But always that one guy asking if we're open...
I would imagine whoever was filming this so calmly must have had a very powerful firearm with them.
This is terrifying. The amount of bass in that growl is so hard to comprehend. It shakes the walls.
You still didn’t explain why there’s no doors there, I’ll look in the comments.
I remember this video..instant classic!
Damn that roar ...This cat really is something 😅😅
What a beautiful! Majestic Roar!
I wouldn't stand, Surely This person is used to Lion's Roar!
OMGeeeeee this scared the crap out of me!!!!😱
Wow. The door was actually open. Crazy
I nearly shitted my pants when it roared! 😂😂
His roar is the loudest of all big cats, you can feel vibrations on the floor and inside your body.
Lions are incredible massive creatures ❤
That roarer makes your body shake, and it's true😅😂
This is very scary to say the least to see a lion staring at you & ready to crash thru that window not to mention the person taking the video was outside knowing the lions were in the front yard. I doubt the chicken wire fence on the window would prevent the lion from come crashing through. Who in the world choose to live there?
That's not where they live
That's just a camp kitchen
this man got window of thin netted steel
A friend of mine worked at Joe Louis arena in the 80’s when Ringling Bros circus was in Detroit. He said one of the males roared at them and it vibrated the whole arena. Loudest thing he ever heard. It was in a huge cage back stage.
Thank goodness in the explanation for this video the authors wrote "DON'T TRY THIS YOURSELF" because of course we were all about to drive up to lion country and go make coffee in a shack without doors or dogs and stare down a big male lion!
There's are more than enough examples of dumb tourists doing dumb things.
Looking out the kitchen window in my neck of the woods you may come across a deer or something like that but a lion 😓💀
That roar reverberates right through the video!
Marvelous Video... OMG!
What a brave person
Lion translation: "Get on the roof" 😂
I sometimes look out the window and see a stray cat, once and a while but this, gives me a whole new perspective 😢
Oh my God my heart stopped for several seconds...I think if I was in a similar situation I would have fainted. It was clear he looked nervous...but a nervous animal is just a dangerous as a comfortable one.
Beautiful creature! Thanks!
Lion sees food inside the kitchen
More like Lion surprised to see a potential threat in the kitchen.
Didn’t understand What’s the barrier between you and the lion
This is the first time ever that my heart started to beat faster while watching CZcams on my mobile. And I've seen some though situations in real life.
Lion: Knock Knock
Human: Who's there?
Lion: Trick or treat?
If that male lion breaks that window net , you’ll be so sorry…😑
Isn't the door to the left of the window open? Also the door through which he entered. Couldn't the lion walk around to the back of the house where he is? This is so fucked up.
