The man who jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo in Chile apparently believed he was a “prophet,” according to Spanish reports this week.
Before Franco Ferrada jumped in the enclosure at the Santiago Zoo on Saturday---where he taunted lions to attack him---he spoke of the apocalypse.
The lions then started mauling him after he stripped off his clothes. Zoo workers shot and killed the two lions in order to save his life, and the entire incident was captured in graphic photos circulated online.
