This Is The Reason Why You Don't Turn Your Back On A Lion

If you own a cat, you know that they crouch down and pounce while playing. The same thing was caught on tape, but with a much larger cat - a 400 pound lion at a zoo in Chiba, Japan. A two-year-old boy got a very close encounter when the lion lunged, after the boy turned his back.

The good news is that a glass wall was separating the two when the lion pounced, smashing his face into the wall.
