Arnold Schwarzenegger really had a long weekend, didn’t he.

After Arnold Schwarzenegger was attacked during his visit to South Africa, we didn’t think the weekend’s events would get any more alarming. Now it appears we all are going to have to eat crow as Arnold Schwarzenegger has released a new video of himself petting a lion.

That’s right, Arnold likes to push the envelope.


The man considered to be one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time, Arnold Schwarzenegger recently posted a video of himself pending a full-grown lion during his trip to South Africa. While the attack that he suffered may have been the biggest talk of the weekend, Arnold seems to be taking everything in stride as this video will illustrate perfectly.

Arnold Schwarzenegger appears to be in good spirits and appears completely unaffected from the attack that took place this past Saturday. Take a look at the video to see the greatest of all time himself come face to face with one of nature’s most powerful and dangerous creatures.
