Lion opens car door and frightens curious tourists in African Safari [VIDEO]

Two sisters went on safari while visiting their parents in South Africa, when they discovered that lions are capable of opening car doors.

The women can be heard delightedly snapping pictures, and talking about the majestic lions lying lazily a few feet away. Despite one of the lions getting up and approaching the car, the ladies remained relatively calm about the animal until it opened the car door with its teeth.

Giggles turned to gasps but one of the passengers had the good sense to shut the door firmly before a voice can be heard saying (after dropping the recording device): “I din’t know they could do that.”

Joshua Sutherland who uploaded the video in 2014 wrote: “Did you know lions could open car doors? My sisters were visiting our parents, while serving a mission in South Africa, and had an experience of a lifetime.”
