Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Many people feel fear and awe as soon as they see a lion from afar, so what if you stand with him inside the cage, and he jumps over you?
This is exactly what the Lebanese adventurer, Tony, nicknamed “The Maestro”, did with one of his favorite animals.
The Lebanese adventurer achieved great success at the beginning of his career on the YouTube channel, which offers various crazy and extreme experiences.
And after he challenged the lion to eat, in a video clip that achieved more than 6 million views, the Lebanese adventurer decided to raise the ceiling of the challenge while he was in Egypt.
A day before filming, he spent about one hour in the lion’s cage to get to know him, knowing that he was trained from a young age to mix with people and take pictures.
And the Lebanese adventurer had to remain calm, because any rapid or sudden movement might make the animal feel afraid, which would prompt it to show a reverse reaction.
Not only was the “maestro” inside the cage with the lion alone, but he also wanted him to jump over it.
This was among the most difficult scenes that the Lebanese adventurer filmed on his YouTube channel.
The video clip won the admiration of many of the “maestro’s” followers on social media.
“People’s reaction is the reason behind my filming of similar videos,” the Lebanese adventurer said in an interview with CNN in Arabic.
