Following up on Miss C's recent post of strange deaths, here's one suggested by Alistair Strachan of Fortean Times, the case of a misplaced faith and atheist lion!
A man shouting "God will save me if he exists", lowered himself by a rope into the big cats’ enclosure in Kiev zoo, Ukraine, on Sunday, 4 June, when the zoo was packed with visitors. He then took his shoes off and went up to the lions. A lioness knocked him down and severed his carotid artery, killing him instantly.

In fact, this would make a good front page neatorama post for all the youngsters that have never seen it.
I don't think this idiot believed in God, or he wouldn't have added "...if He exists".
