A video posted on X by the account @Kreately.in has gone viral, showing a lioness wandering calmly across a road before sniffing a man who was asleep on a footpath. The man, seemingly in a deep slumber, remained entirely unaware of the wild animal’s presence throughout the incident.
In the clip, the lioness first appears walking down a deserted road and then returns to approach the man lying on a mat. After sniffing him briefly, she walks away without causing any harm. The eerie calmness of the encounter has left viewers stunned and debating the authenticity of the video.
Real or AI? Netizens Can’t Agree
As the video gained traction online, many users questioned whether the footage was real or created using artificial intelligence. Some insisted that the setting appears to be Gujarat, known for its population of Asiatic lions.
One user wrote, “These days, animals behave like humans and humans like animals, times have changed.” Another joked, “That man must’ve smelled so bad, the lion probably got dizzy.” Someone else chimed in, “Do you underestimate India?”
