Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Ring Fight

Insane 8-o

<edit> nm, it's a fake per snopes.

That's the craziest thing that I have ever read. I thought at first that it must be a joke. It says that it's a bbc story and all of the bbc links work but the address is http://www.newturfers - don't know if it's a real story or not. I'm hoping that it's fake.

Not to ruin it because it is a great story (and one of the better fakes I've seen), but see:

Aargh sorry my link is dead. I just copied it from an email a buddy sent around to a bunch of us who were debating the whole midget-lion fight a few weeks back. The link was to a page by the author of the hoax.

I think it is now found here:

Regardless, yes it's fake.
