Watch: Lion jumps into open safari truck full of students
Updated | By Damon Beard
A group of students recently got more than they bargained for when they had to welcome an unexpected guest into their safari truck.

I’ve been on a few safaris, and there’s one animal I’ve always wanted to see - a lion. But they never want to show their face when I’m on safari, so I always end up leaving disappointed.

The pride of lions decided to climb into the game vehicle with some of the students still inside - enough to scare the living daylights out of anyone!
You’ve got to love the ranger who keeps telling the students: "relax, all of you relax, climb out, he just wants to say hi". I'm not sure about you, but I don't quite know how calm I would be in a situation such as this?
