Clyde Beatty--1952

Great footage of a master. The lion side passing to cut the other one's escape off is spectacular. When a male lion or tiger get's a hard on and set's out to destroy something they are pretty single minded in their pursuit. You need to have stood in the middle of a vendetta like this, a time or two, to really appreciate a Clyde Beatty. The big goof that falls off the high pedestal in his effort to get out of the fray is classic. Those sad sacks will get themselves or you hurt in their effort to find a safe place and get out of the line of fire.
