LOL! Lion vs. 42 Midgets! You can't make this **** up!!

Ok. Maybe you could. But still!

LION MUTILATES 42 MIDGETS IN CAMBODIAN RING-FIGHT
Spectators cheered as entire Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion

Tickets had been sold-out three weeks before the much anticipated fight, which took place in the city of Kâmpóng Chhnãng.

The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.

Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."

This campaign is believed to be what sparked the undisclosed fan to challenge the entire league to fight a lion; a challenge that Sihamoni readily accepted.

An African Lion (Panthera Leo) was shipped to centrally located Kâmpóng Chhnãng especially for the event, which took place last Saturday, April 30, 2005 in the city?s coliseum.

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.

Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they ?? could out-wit and out-muscle [it].?

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

I know it's old, but I lol'd.

 

Holy ****. I guess it's funny in a "There are so many horrifying things about that" kind of way.


EDIT: It's also funny in a "this story's three years old" kind of way.

EDIT 2: And funny in a "I can't believe I didn't look at the URL" kind of way.

DAMN BLOODY MUNCHKINS!

 

This was a season finale of Little People Big World.

 

So not one of these fighters probably had a sword. Geez, easy pickings.

what do they do throw a few to the lion and the rest gang up on it.

Geez I bet the guy was expecting a few to get eaten and the rest to go in and do there duty and he take the glory.

Thats if he fought. If he didnt he made alot of money.

 

This begs the question as to how many midgets a person could take.

 

I could take a legion..........maybe two.

I've seen this before, but it's still deliciously hilarious though. It's so surreal that you just can't take it seriously enough to be horrified/saddened.

Scummy

 

Hahahaha, wt*?

 

U.R.Lying.

 

So....from the lion's point of view, was he in a ring full of snack-sized humans...the McNugget versions?

Or rather "McMidgets"?



Imagine being the person who had to clean up the mess after they called the fight.

 

"Lollipop Guild versus The Cowardly Lion* one night only!"

*cowardly lion subject to subsitution with highly aggitated and hungry African lion

 

Yeah, picking up limbs and entrails.

 

"McMidgets" *snicker*

I'm going to hell, aren't I?

LOL

 

I'd lol even if it WAS real.

 

*suddenly has visions of Quonas clones running everywhere being torn limb from limb yelling obsenities*

 

Oh I don't know. My fappy probably would've managed to at least take a bite out of the lion's ear. Besides, despite what he says, he's not THAT short.



Souderwan.... Probably.

 

Sorry. I think Quonas, so I visualize Frankensteinish Ewoks.

 

I'm suspicious of anything with nice simple fractions.

its a fake. I can't believe no one else looked up the article on the web.

 

Because people with common sense realized long ago that it was fake?

 

*sigh* yes, we know its fake. It doesn't make it any less fun to talk about.

 

Missed the bit where I said "Ok. Maybe you can. But still!", did you? S'ok. Be a party pooper if you must!
