Lioness in zoo kills man who invoked God
KIEV (Reuters) - A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in Kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on Monday.
"The man shouted 'God will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.
"A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery."
The incident, Sunday evening when the zoo was packed with visitors, was the first of its kind at the attraction. Lions and tigers are kept in an "animal island" protected by thick concrete blocks.

Well, I guess that proves it. No, wait. If it happens just once that's not sufficient proof. I think Bush should try it. Then we'd know for sure.
no 6, i think this story (ugly as it is) put a smile on many a set of lips
loc - couldn't be any more expensive UNLESS your name was abraham
rc - there is no way now, to know what he was thinking. obviously that's most likely a GOOD thing
