  • The way it was filmed made it look like a music video.

  • he deserves it lol , guy wants to show his bravery ...at last this is what happens

  • Tourists/Non-Locals just have no idea. And to try that with lions.. How stupid can you be? Crocodiles are another animal that take many people each year. Places like America but especially Far North Queensland in Australia many back pakcers have been killed and recovered inside the animal's stomach after swimming in the wrong places. Just because you can't see a crocodile doens'nt mean its not there. This guy knew exacly what he was in for , he saw the lions. Own stupidity imo.

  • why in general would he get out the vehicle its a fucking safari okay idiot there are wild animals out there that can kill you or already killed you dumbass there's a reason they say stay in the vehicle. FUCKING DUMBASS GOT HIS OWN ASS HANDED TO HIM YEAH YOU CAN HEAR ME NOW IN HELL CAN'T YOU!!!!!! im probably gonna go to hell for that.

  • Ironic that I should run into this while looking for one I had in my favorites that disappeared last night (which I see as one of the next choices). It's a lion attack in a circus cage.

    I saw a still picture series of this a decade ago. I never knew there was a complete video of it.

    It's a shame this clueless wonder didn't exit the human gene pool before he imparted his defective genes to his offspring.

    It's hard to believe I spent a day in a county fair pen with one of these! *cringe*

  • The baby is going to grow up and kill that lion that's why he camera is on him it's called revenge motherfucker!!

  • don't you people ever watch docus, if these lions really just tore that man to pieces then where the hell is all the blood, the lions don't havesingle drop on them and if you look closely through 2:14 to 2:17 the chunk of "flesh" that the lioness tears off is a pale pinkish colour if was a fresh kill it would have a very dark red, this so FAKE.

  • @darthspuddy this is not fake mate , this is a real incident , google it and you will know all about it.

  • Natural selection at it's finest. Honestly, I know this sounds harsh, but I have a really hard time feeling sorry for people who are THAT stupid. What makes me ever more angry is that his children had to witness their father die in such a brutal way because of his stupidity. No doubt that must have scared them for life.

  • These kind of films can fool people back in the days, but today, everybody is exposed to so much and can tell the difference easily. Just like the Faces of Death, cheap stunts and beyond fake.

  • miaooooooooooo frrrrrrrrr .... sono stati dei gattoni cattivi :(

  • this os good that people will see what happes if they dont stay in the car

  • What a fucking rtard

  • Which Jurassic Park is this?

  • This is a well-known fake. There never was a Pit Dernitz—it's a fake name (it's etymological nonsense). There was no 'news report' on it, as is argued below (apart from discussing the film; not the actual 'event'). The actress who played the mother here was a porn actress, looking for work, and later gave a tell-all interview. The director was exposed in this, and other, fakes. Don't lose sleep over this video.

  • @Svatopluk where can i find the tell-all interview? and whats the porn actress name? please respond

  • @1984wrx Oh, it was more than ten years ago that this was discussed. I read it in Italian. The director was exposed for a number of faked scenes, though, for some reason, this one remains popular on YouTube (less so the others in the same film). In addition to the demonstrably fake bits at the end with the lions chewing on some kind of meat on a fake leg. The planned camera work: what kind of monster would pan away to get a shot of the crying child (who is clearly not even watching the event).

  • @Svatopluk WTF kind of responds was that? i believed you when you said it was a fake after reading your first comment, i was just asking where i can find the actresses interview and her name.

  • @1984wrx I'm surprised by your aggressive and semi-literate response. I merely tried to tell you that it was too long ago for me to remember the exact source. While I was at it, I not a few other oddities about the film. You're welcome.

  • Yeah mof this is fake!

  • Awful..omg!

  • easy food for the lions

  • imdb says it's fake. but they did a decent job of faking it

  • c'est du lourd !!!! les gens qui comprennent pas vraiment s'en vont naturellement vers ce genre de mort : quelle catastrophe de pas avoir de cerveau..... pauvre homme quoi qu'il en soit ....

  • om nom nom nom nom

  • check it out at snopes.com - there is a great discussion on its being faked.

  • Unfortunitely it is real

  • fake...

  • wow these people are stupid all they had to do to save his life is drive the car at the lions and scare them away just like what happened at the end........

  • This foolish man hurry in to taking videos at this terrible situation .he can easily save him by drive his car towards the lions-------------------

  • I dont know if the "attack" is real, but its extremely shocking

  • Real ou Fake ??

  • @pcgfbpa Real

  • I'm so sad that's not real...it isn't exciting..:(

  • gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR!"

  • At 1:13 or so, lions should be in the throes of killing or at least subduing, but they behave like trained animals instead, barely opening mouths. I have a kitten who does a lot of pretend mauling with me. When he is attacking my hand/arm he opens WIDE to chomp aggressively. The other day, he made me lol- as I carried him, looking at this cuteness; he turned his head sideways and clamped his teeth directly on my esophagus (not hard of course). This is instinct. These lions killing here.

  • There'd be alot more blood on the ground and stains around the lion's mouths if this was real.

  • darn i wish this was real

  • @nanumula Damn u are heartless.. I shit my pants, thank God it's not real !!

  • I know this is real because while you can use actors the lions themselves are acting too well in my opinion.unless they put lunchmeat on a mannequin to replicate the event.its real ,i mean we know the grizzly man was killed by a bear,so why is this any more different.ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS ON CAMERA!!!!

  • @CesarPhilosophy

    interesting, thanks for the info!

  • that's a real man kneeling to the ground, and that's a real lion jumping on his back.

  • why these idiots wouldn't do anything is beyond me

  • @CesarPhilosophy You think this footage is fake?

  • WHY WOULD YOU BRING YOUR FAMILY INCLUDING A BABY TO THE WILD!!!! YOUR FAULT! YOUR DEATH! DESERVED WHAT YOU PAID FOR!!! IDIOT!

  • omfg is that true ?!!

    

  • yess in 1975 technology wasn't very good.. you say it's fake fake.. .. i thiink its True :((

  • Wtf... y y'all keep saying it fak... it was made in 1974 there technology wasn't dat good

  • Omg

  • ok how the hell wood i kno dis is fake so i can sleep tonite :(

  • this is a gud movie clip folks,thumbs up!!

  • Try to look for "Pit Dernitz" this name in IMDb

    Died: February 18, 1975 in Wallasee, Namibia

  • @michelleleung2011 'Pit Dernitz' is in IMDB the same reason anyone else is: the name appears on the credits of a film. Closer inspection will reveal to you that there is no 'Pit Dernitz' (a fake name anyway) and the location given in the credits is entirely made up.

  • yup, it's fake, there are no carol, kim or graham dernitzes out there

  • The more I watch it, the more I feel it's staged.

  • died because is stupid!!!!Lack of intelligence leads to dead!!!

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad were you ever in the apartheid time of south africa? then there was a wallasee. there aint gamekeepers all the time. this is not fake. and then gamekeepers are not stupid enough to let wild lions play with them. i live in south africa so i do know what i am talking about and we have a safari. so pls this is true and try to get your fact together before talking shit.

  • LOL THIS IS SO FAKE ITS FUNNY

    WHY would the cameraman shot the baby crying "ok I can't save him but I want to show that the baby cried so that the clip shows how he's whole family watched it"

  • thumbs up if "Trace of Death" brought you here

  • even if its real...why should it be disturbing?! a man killed by his stupidity..thousands dying of hunger daily is disturbing...get a hold of yourselves

  • first of all, why did he get out of the car? It was a stupid decision plane and simple. This video is real, its 100% real.

  • RAPED!!!

  • In the end we're all just animals.

  • jajajajaja

    man vs mother Nature...

    mother Nature 1 - man 0

  • "due to the nature of the terrain it was impossible to make any use of the cars"?????so how did the cars get there in the first place?????probably flew there!!Lion King meets Back to the future 3

  • Never watching lion king again...

    Simba n mufaza u fuckin man eating pussycats.

  • -.-' This is REAL OMG,find on wikipedia ..the guy was killed by lions!!!!!!!!!

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad Come on, everyone knows this isn't real. For me, the most fascinating thing is how well executed it is. I mean, this was made years ago, and it really looks like that guy's getting eaten! Consider all the ropy effects in so many recent horror films (remember, there are very few decent 'killer animal' movies, besides 'Jaws') and then compare them to this, which has the genuine power to disturb.

  • It's a simulation, and boy am i glad.

    Look it up.

  • why da hell people callin this fake ? if it is fake , who took the time to to do it and make look so fukin real ? .... this is real to me , lions eat people

  • @fhab525 Because it is fake. Lets say this is real. Do you believe that two idiots find the time of filming poor baby Dernitz and the rest of the family while daddy Dernitz gets ripped to pieces? "Due to the nature of the terrain it was impossible to make use of the cars" You can see for yourself that the terrain is flat with a Range Rover standing in the back! At some point at 1:13 the lioness gets pushed away without any further attack. These are just a few points.

  • @fhab525 ...The people making a movie called 'Traces of Death' which is full of realistic death scenes?

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad Really, isn't it amazing that people want to believe in sensationalism so badly that a.) that's what inspired the entire Mondo style in the first place, and b.) even after things are clearly evidenced as staged, they still feel a debate is worthy of time and effort. Mankind has so much more evolving to do...

  • esto es super falso primero los leones le cortan la respiracion a sus presas en este video parece que se lo comen vivo

  • FAKE!!!!!!!

    

  • OK.. I have watched it enough times and read many comments about 'fakery'. At first I thought it WAS real but now I think it was faked.

  • Este Video es mas falso , que una promesa presidencial...los leones nisikiera tienen sangre en el ociko. la sangre se notaria a leguas. me hace recordar a la pelicula holocausto canibal, que tbn resulto ser una verdadera Farsa...

  • this is real the man gets out the car and alarm the lions his family saw him become eaten of rthe lions

  • I have examined little bit of this video, ok first I don't get why the man got out in the first place when surrounded by wild animals, unless the skipper ordered Gilligan to go film alittle closer, no zoom in the camera I guess or no gas, why didn't the other people warned him that a lion was behind him, & around the time 1:45, 1:46 while the lions were on him the arms & legs looked stiff, like the body was moving all together like a mannequin, other thing the man's camera how did it go off

  • @mybabyX09 I know this film is fake. But, in regard to your comment: Never underestimate the stupidity of people. I once pulled my car to the side of a highway to watch a wild mother black bear and her cubs cross a field only about 50 yards away. I was amazed to see another car pull up behind me a few seconds later, and some middle aged woman jump out and go chasing through the field after them, camera in hand. Lucky for her she spooked them and they took off into the bush.

  • Yes, this is a very rare moment captured on film, which may lead to disbelief; but I shall have you know, this is as real as it gets.

  • ES QUE SE NECESITA SER PENDEJO PARA BAJARSE DE EL AUTO DUHH ...Y POR QUE NO aTROPELLaRON A LOS LEONES

  • damn how stuppid can you be 2 get out off the car with lions all around you.....

  • lol this is not fake its a video from the faces of death series.

  • damn lion

    poor man n his family v sad

  • I don't know.

    1. Why would he step out of the car to photograph the lions? Simple. It's because people are plain out stupid and fail to use common sense.

    2. In the beginning (when the person is on the floor), the lioness is not biting him (fully opening her mouth and biting down). Same goes for the Lion that is by his leg. Why is this the case? Strange.

    3. They skip to a scene of the lions eating the supposed body... which can be easily fabricated..

    Could be real, could be fake.

  • This is real, I remember when this came out years ago. I know it's hard to beleive in today's world of the internet, but it's real.

  • The video is very disturbing when you first watch it thinking it is real. However, there are just too many inconsistencies for it to actually be real, for example; Some of the other 'actors' appear to change outfits mid-video. There are more than two cameras being used here as claimed in the video. Why would you pan away from the attack to film the family's reaction? There is a Land Rover with keepers just feet away, why did they do nothing? And of course WHY would you get out the car at all?

  • @thisisanno

    It's real-most are too scared to realize it. He's obviously being attacked- Why would anyone risk this even if it was a stunt? You think these are tame lions? None are.

    The fact that there are more cameras supports the event; would all the film takers just focus just on his mauling?

    Where's the change in outfits mid-video?

    Why he got out of the car? !

    Understand this- there's an untold number of (idiotic) incidents occurring all the time.

  • @thisisanno It is real you penis, there's a whole news report etc on it. Jheez, there are some right idiots out there.

  • Comment removed

  • It's definitely real. And bloody hard to watch. What affects me the most is the wife, saying, like "what are you doing?" at the beginning, and the horror on her face from the car door is unforgettable. Silly man, silly people.

  • looks real to me. If it is real, the poor Kiddywinkies and the wife. Fuck.

  • This video is real for anyone who wants the 100% truth. Please stop your stupidity and look this video up because it is 100% real. I don't like it when people spread false rumors due to there jealousy and ignorance.

    Never questioned this video again.

  • @lex9479 It's real in that is exists in the material plane.

  • ha if this was real he would have totally deserved it

  • 1:29

    i can't stop laughing

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad Agree and the lions dont have blood on their mouths and noses when eating the victim adn reaping the flesh....fake but well done tho.

  • this is real retards

  • Did the guy at 1:14 think waving his hat would scare away the lions???

  • fake, but nice

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad im no chav..you again show your ignorace by making fail assumptions

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad FAIL im not american and you're the one whos making conspiracy theories twat

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad lol what does UFOs and da vinci code have to do with this you retard..you so fucking stupid..arguing with you is pointless

  • @MrEnglishmanAbroad its not fake you stupid fuck look um savage man savage beast in imdb and read if you can you gay shit

  • yes people it IS fake, the director got accused for making a snuff film and had to bring the killed actors to court to prove they didnt die.

  • SHIT!!!

  • Don't fuck with nature, its that simple :D

  • if its not fake them lions fuck my man up that was some nut ass shit to get out of the car no way i would of got my ass out of that car that was stupid dont he looks like bin laden.

  • It's fake. But there is real stuff out there if you look for it. But the main reason it is fake is that it is allowed on youtube. YouTube doesnt allow too much of that shit on here.

  • The conspiracy theory wankers love to say anything they do not understand cos they are incredibly stupid is always FAKE. The moon landing is fake, the JFK shooting is fake, Bin Laden's death is FAKE... The only thing fake is the indignation and the reality is that you are all idiots.

  • i don't care if its real or fake i just think its something I'll never get out me my head! If its real then shame on the man for putting his family through that! They paid for his stupidity! And if its fake then shame on the people who made it for we are paying for their disgusting film because i will never get that image from my memory! Noone should see that, and I'm forever sorry my curiosity led me to watch it! I regret that!

  • @bennymaxy Fake, this video was fake, don't get your panties in a knit.

  • its funny how the angles change when its supposed to be an evidence video.

  • Too bad the lions didn't kill the whole family!

  • It was fake people

  • i dunno man seemed kinda fake i didnt see him "ripped to shreds" wasnt really much blood and if three lions eat you im expecting to see a lot also i didnt see any blood on the lions faces which there definitly would be but what do i kow sucks if its real i feel bad for his family esp the kids watching that gotta be scarred for life and dont get why nobody help...if it is fake really stupid stunt to pull

  • indeed this guy died, no biography from him after more than 30 years. this video depicts a crime.

  • It's a famous movie guys ! There is nothing true in that video....

  • haha! that lion kicked his ass!

  • He thought he was filming close to a Kitty Cat,

    Oh White People ...

  • Some folk just can't handle the reality - and for those people the word "Fake" was invented. It allows them to escape reality - a get out clause (get out claws..lol) if you will. That's cool - really it is. Nobody forces you to accept reality and you are welcome to believe this is fake.

    There are many, who would have you believe the 9/11 terrorist attack was fake too - seriously. Again, that's cool - if it helps them sleep at night who am I to complain.

    The guy died - he was mauled to death!

  • Seriously, I am not saying this to upset anyone - I promise you - ths is real! Anyone with any humanity can tell it's real - if you pause it and watch it slowly you can see he is kaked in blood - all down his trousers. Now no lion trainer on earth would cover themselves in fake blood - and then go out and attempt to perform this "stunt" - if they did - they would die. Lions cannot be tamed to this extent as an animal expert I promise you this IS real..but believe what you want I don't care.

  • Definitely NOT fake..... I feel sorry for his family, but he shouldn't have got out the car.

  • Fake

  • this man is a fool

  • I don't get why they didn't use their cars to scare them away. Look at the end of the film, the car comes right near them and they run away. The terrain is flat too.

  • It seems fake because of how conveniently the person effortlessly continues to film the whole event while his wives and children just lazily yell from within their car. Just doesn't seem like a normal thing we would do under the same circumstances, use your common sense.

  • @avcomth Agreed. look at the different hair and jacket colors from the guy stepping out of the car and the 'victim'. The guy who is filming finds the time to film the baby and the rest of the family. At 1:22 the lion in the back doest'n take any action at all. At 1:34 the poor fellow lies for 'dead' and with a last struggle for life he tries to get his head up and the lion is nibbling on his shoulder. If the terrain was that bad how did the cars get there in the first place?

  • This video appears controversial.

    IS THIS VIDEO FAKE OR REAL?

  • FAKE

  • @boeing94 we don't know when he pressed record

  • it looks very fake and the directors (Antonio Climati & Mario Morra) are known for faking very shocking scenes in their films such as Cannibal Holocaust. They were actually charged with making a snuff film after Cannibal Holocaust was released and the charges were only dropped after they produced the actors in court.

  • this is not a fake

  • Ya dumasez sayin this us fake

  • @bRoNxb0ii

    Not fake at all...very very real.

  • Lions were trained, footage is fake.

  • @Sadclown456 yea lions were trained to kill a human being... real fake...

  • @Nyckiko The man on the ground is the lions trainer. The way the film is cut, one can easily accomplish the same effect. If you watch close you can actually see the trainer pulling the lion closer because the cat wasn't playing rough enough. This is not one continuous shot, any amateur can see this. Fake.

  • @Sadclown456

    lol you foolish boy!

    You obviously don't know much about lion training. Any lion trainer daft enough to try wrestling lions and then pulling the lions head down would die an immediate death! Like this guy did.

    Not fake - you just cannot face the reality of this man death! He died a horrific death but lying about it and declaring it fake won't bring him back.

  • @weirdcitykid. Fake. Take a closer look.

  • @haantje68

    It's really not - honestly. You coudln't FAKE this..those (in case you hadn't noticed) are fully grown lions. You just can't fake that - trust me I work with Lions and I know this is genuine. The makers of the film deliberately used false names and a false park to creat ambiguity - but it is real. Sorry if this upsets you.

  • @weirdcitykid Whether you work with lions or not doesn't convince me. The guy filming is filming the wife, daughter and baby of the guy! At 1:19 the guy is pulling the lion closer. At 1:22 the lion in the back doesn't take any action at all. At 1:34 the poor fellow lies for 'dead', lift his head and the lion is nibbling on his shoulder. Download the vid and watch it in slowmotion and it all becomes clear.

  • @haantje68

    Have you heard what you are saying:

    "At 1:19 the guy is pulling the lion closer." ...lol. Those are lions!!!! No trainer on earth "pulls lions closer" like that. He is trying to fend them off. Watch in slow you can see blood everywhere. Seriously - I promise you this is real. I think it should be removed from youtube..it's very bad...also film was banned in Finland for "real scenes of human death" and points to the lion scene see wikipedia on Savage man savage beast film.

  • @haantje68

    Oh God - I wish it were fake I swear to God I do - but I work with lions. I am not a handler but my boss is an experienced trainer and says this video is without question real becuase he say there is no way on earth it could be staged with 1 lion let alone a pride. Plus notice how the male defends it's meat from the female - can't stage this stuff. It's real..I promise you. I can understand why people say fake - but if it were fake it would have been proved. Listen...cont...

  • @haantje68

    The family of the dead man are also rumoured to be claming it's fake - a reenactment of his death becuase they are obviously ery distressed. Every fake film ever made has always been proven fake - except this one. Even top experts cannot say for sure. I know it is real..but many want to spread rumor it is fake to stop people watching it and in respect for the guy/ I am not trolling I swear I can tell..on my life..this is real I can tell..surely you can tell. watch it in pause mode.

  • @haantje68

    The reason people think it's fake is because it was shown in a film where there were some fake scenes of death - but there were also some real ones. Like fake and real mixed together. Sadly, this was one of the real ones. I doubt his name was really Pit - I think they made that up - and the park was made up too - but the incident is defo real. No trainer on EARTH could pull this off - this was in the days before CGI etc. How u explain that?

  • @haantje68

    One last thing - there is another horrible lion attack film - a man in cage get's eaten as dog barks..very sad...and that was just one lion..this is 4!! Plus, in other video the way the lion acts is very consistent with this..ie it is very calm and approaches the guy as food - not frantic and jumping about like you see in films or would expect. If it were staged it wouldn't look like this - couldn't stage it anyway. Trust me - it is real.

  • @haantje68

    Okay, you know what - I still think it's real but I admit - it may be faked. I just saw this video: watch?v=0qvoYqOXw-g and yes it seems a man can play with several lions. Well I never would have thought it possible till I saw it with my own eyes. Amazing!

  • @weirdcitykid I've just seen it and it is amazing indeed! Now let's put in some fancy camera work, panicked people wandering around, a crying baby and a dummy in the end covered in fake blood or a piece of meat covered with clothes you will get the same effect as the Pit Dernitz vid. After all your messages trying to convince people this is real, I must say I admire your guts to say it may be faked. Let me know when you're convinced.

  • oh my god what a shocking video and a death too ...........

  • This is totally real you small minded fools. And for those complaining of lack of blood - try pause framing the video from start to finish - the guy is covered in blood - on his trousers and all down his shirt and arms (what's left of them). I think the "fakers" are just concerned parents worried about what their kids might see...but take it from me - this is 100% real video footage of a pride of lions attacking their prey. His own fault - what WAS he thinking!!!!

  • @weirdcitykid  fake.

  • Totally fake, no blood. There should be blood on the lions faces or paws.

  • holy shit

    

  • I dont know why people think this is fake you clearly see him walking with camera when the lion jumps on his back you see him struggling then when he dies they eat him you see them eating him his bloody leg is in the air at one point do you really think the lions are going to eat a dummy and do you really think a man would let a lion jumponhis back for a joke common sense people

  • hope everyone here knows that this is fucking FAKE, you looked at it once, look at it again ya its bullshit.

  • it its true..well the man got what he deserved..he should came to these liones in the first plce..and now facking humans got the nerve to call the lions beasts and not refer to that asshole who was eaten as intruder...

  • haha

    

  • holy moly its fake

  • holy moly

  • fake

  • These types of cars in the middle of the Savannah. Does the person who has recorded a suit against lions? Lions licking tourist while playing with him. The final doll lying on the ground with the clothes of the tourist. Who takes their babies with that kind of cars with the windows down just 3 meters from the lions? Who gets out of the car to take photos near a lions litter.WHO THE FUCK!!!

    All of you who think that this is true are pathetics . Seriously

  • I feel bad for the man! he just killed himself. The beasts are not to blame!

  • 2:13 u see his foot and the rest of his body being eaten. No man could stage this horror, or let his family go thru the agony..I remember this story in 1975. It's real.
