The viral clip opens with a man standing dangerously near a tiger. As the clip progresses, the man can be seen walking with a tiger while holding the predator's tail. Although, the tiger appears to be well-trained, but it is clearly not safe.

Social media users were shocked after watching the antics of a man with the predator. Many were left furious after seeing how the animal is being treated as a pet and even pointed that out. "I love cats..SPECIALLY...when they are BIG..." reads the video caption.
