This gamekeeper at Murchison Falls National Park in Uganda meant no harm to the 3 ton hippo that grazed on the grass nearby. In fact, the unassuming lad attempted to walked discreetly past the animal. But, unlike what the folks at Milton Bradley would have you believe, this hungry hippo was in no mood to play nice. The behemoth immediately gave chase.

Despite their enormous size, hippos can easily outrun humans and are one of the world’s most aggressive creatures. A hippo’s jaws can bite a crocodile in half.

Hippo attacks on humans and boats are common. If this man had not been black, he most likely would not have escaped the jaws of death.
