John was attacked by a tiger
On this podcast we’ve covered well over 170 crazy true stories, and several of those have been about animal attacks.
I’ve had guests on who have been attacked by a rattlesnake, large dogs, an alligator, a monkey, a grizzly bear, an elephant, yellow jackets, and a shark.
But we’ve never talked to a victim of a tiger attack – until today.
Ironically, John was working in Russia as part of a conservation effort to protect tigers and other wild cats when this happened.
And the only thing he had to protect himself from the lunging tiger was a road flare.

Customer Reviews
Thought provoking!
Love this podcast! Love it🥳
Loved the episode about Mike and his ostomy . So many great questions answered. Thank you for bringing this episode to light more!!! LOVE YOUR SHOW!!!
Tiger attack
Is it just me or was there no real description of the moment the tiger stopped attacking? As soon as the narrator mentioned he was going to use the flare, the episode went to an ad and we never found out how the tiger retreated. Very unsatisfying.
Currently disappointed with episodes
I Absolutely love this podcast and it’s host but, recently all the episodes are the Q&A and are very frustrating. To say the least it’s very underwhelming. I love when you are putting out actual stories not these crazy questions. I have a subscription and this is not what I want to pay for at all.
