the question is how can someone just enter in a Tiger enclousure? for a common of mortals that is really not a good idea but how easy can someone do that? that`s the question...

They're not gonna put down the tiger, are they? It's not the cat's fault that this guy was deranged, suicidal or really really stupid.

Almost certainly they'll kill the tiger. I don't know what this "preserve" is like, but after a tiger kills once, it becomes vastly more aggressive against humans. The risk is too high.

Do you know what kind of Enclosure this was? Because I don't, I'm not familiar with this preserve. No matter how severe, a learning disability should not get you through the two layers of wire fencing and the unclimbable ditch that should be separating humans from tigers.

A lot of mentally disabled people are fully able-bodied adults capable of being as athletic as anyone else. I know there are at least 2 rows of fences but the enclosure was good enough that it's still not clear how he actually got in

"...after he entered into a tiger enclosure..." This is what happens when we don't have broadcasted executions: People want to cuddle with the cute fluffy animals they only recognize from their online games.

Apart from commenting on the almost complete lack of sympathy for the victim, why is no-one commenting on the questionable ethics of CNN showing someone being mauled to death?

For people saying cruel things; he was supposedly using Makaton signs in the video (which I have unfortunately seen and can say it does look like it), which is a form of sign language for people with learning and/or communication difficulties. If it's true, his caretaker should be questioned.

Doesn't look like he wanted to die. Certainly looks like he might have mental health issues though.

Based on how these things usually go…yeah, humans will choose the most deranged option.

They are usually so warm and friendly when I visit. Obviously a tragedy. What did he expect to happen? What would cause a sane adult to do this? His family and friends are filled with hurt and anger. Many times there is just no answer. I feel for them.

I witnessed a drunk ('boy'/idiot) enter past a barrier at the Jacksonville Zoo (FL) and the Tiger put it's claw into the boy's hand, then the tiger paused to savor it's next meal. Later the Times Union paper had him in a picture on his couch, with a tiger painting above him.... . Crazy!

mental health was no quite okay... someone tried to stop him? sad. some part of death by self harm, no one will make this famous. did he say sure i will, or take a dare? very preventable.
