Monkeys Attack Drunk Man in Brazilian Zoo
Loading...
Uploaded by tvbodaga2 on Nov 17, 2011
Joao Leite Dos Santos, a mechanic in Sao Paulo, Brazil, admitted that he had been drinking alcohol when he went to the Sorocaba Zoo on Sunday.
Thinking that it would be fun to join the zoo's colony of spider monkeys, he climbed over a fence and swam across a dividing pool to get closer to the animals, as amused tourists looked on.
Many kept their cameras trained on Mr Dos Santos and laughed as his presence in the water startled the monkeys.
A group of the long-limbed primates gathered at the water's edge, and one in particular kept reaching out for Mr Dos Santos in a bid to grab a hold of him.
Thinking that the monkeys were inviting him to join
Almost immediately, one of the spider monkeys sank its sharp teach into Mr Dos Santos's wrist, while another bit his elbow and shoulder.
The monkeys are fiercely territorial and had been sizing Mr Dos Santos up from the moment he climbed over the fence.
Realising the monkeys were not in a playful mood, and now in excruciating pain, Mr Dos Santos waded back towards the horrified onlookers and was dragged out of the water and over the enclosure fence.
He lay on the ground for several minutes, in a growing pool of his own blood, while zoo workers tried to work out what to do.
He was eventually taken to hospital, where he was treated for severe bites to his right arm and shoulder, and gave sheepish interviews to the local media. It is not known whether he will face criminal charges for his prank.

I've gotten pretty hammered from time to time and made some very stupid decisions... but being ballsy enough to mess with wild monkeys with huge fangs takes the cake.

@greymilton on the contrary, it proves survival of the fittest... group of monkeys > stupid drunk. if it wasn't for other people (im assuming) saving the dumb-ass's life he would have died, unable to pass on his genes for self destruction by monkey bites ;)
