This country is so funny despite load shedding and all that's happening..even our elders turn to be a comedian. I can imagine his bravery.
@Montjane Karabo:
Lion won't attack a human being, especially in a foreign environment unless it feel threatened or cornered.
@Lukhanyo Mchizwa:
I just remembered that Mr Bones moment yena faka lo bhubesi kalo Grotho.
@Nelly J Mgidi:
I believe he saw the lion,it's just that he couldn't explain or do exactly the way the lion did at the end of the day he is a human being not an animal he won't sound like a lion or tiger.
Thato Anastacia: Kare haaaa yare hooo. Kare haaaa yare hooo. We are being fooled by this man he can act xem let him be jacoobie's husband.
@Mic Bee:

@Kutsojoy Mahlorisane:
Lions are afraid of noise. I think the lion run away because of the sound n if it roared many people should have had it, the sound of the lion can go as far as 5km this man is lying.
