These guys were very lucky- lucky that a powered bike can go faster than a charging tiger! They were riding near Nagarhole National Park in Karnataka, India, which is also a tiger reserve. This footage was taken on a phone, but we believe it was attached to the rider's helmet; otherwise, he would have dropped it. When a discussion of the video turned to insurance and legal claims, redditor C12 was inspired to sketch a picture.
You must admit that the tiger in the courtroom looks as well-fed as he is well-dressed. -via Digg

The tiger sketch reminds me of the old AD&D 1E Monster Manual Rakshasa sketch -- That had him at leisure in a smoking jacket and ascot, here he is offering testimony.

the tiger almost got him, but lost traction on the trail of pee left by the guy on the bike.

The video description said they were "near" the park. Too bad tigers can't read, and even if they did, they probably wouldn't respect property lines.
