    This years first Darwin Award contender?

    Lion kills tourist who left car window open - BBC News

    A female tourist has been killed in a lion attack at a game park in South Africa.


    The lioness jumped through the open window of a car and mauled the woman thought to be from the US.

    The park's rules forbid visitors from driving through the lion enclosure with their windows down

    Lions are terribly misunderstood as Big Tame Moggies. I tell everyone who goes to SA on holiday, that no matter how docile and lazy they seem to be, they are instinctive killers. They are the top of the food chain, not you. Darwin would have been truly pleased with this scenario.

        One less muppet in this world. Look at the positives, she would have no doubt caused endless crashes on motorway driving like a lunatic. The world is better off without them. Darwin award rules!!
        Vote Corbyn ! Save this country !

            Moggies would kill you if they could, we're just higher up the food chain
            Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

            No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

              FTFY, it really is the only reason. Thats why you sometimes catch them just looking at you. They are sizing you up and wondering if they could manage it.

                I think that's right. I reckon they'll rise up once they work out how to get cat food out of a tin without a human being involved.

                For the time being they're contenting themselves with low level acts of civil disobedience. Like tulipting in one's ski boot in the certain knowledge it won't be found for another 6 months, to pick an example entirely at random.

                  Yup it is also why they 'sniff' you (or children) when they are asleep to see if they are dead - if so they will happily feast.
