Extraordinary Lion Hunt Filmed | Attenborough 60 Years in the Wild | BBC Earth Video
Published on Aug 20, 2017
David Attenborough reflects on several times he followed lion prides at night in the grasslands of Africa. Their roars sent tingles down his spine and seeing lions hunting down prey at night is a sight to be behold. Subscribe: http://bit.ly/BBCEarthSub

0:21 all you see is emptiness and grass, it’s scary how many lions were right THERE! and you saw nothing until it was too late.
The Lions did not feel threatened only because of Sir David Attenborough’s voice.

One of the best, if not THE BEST narrator for wildlife documentaries out there. Bless you, Sir David!
“hey look, there’s a weak fleshy human half hanging out of that car. Shall we eat him?” “No, there’s a massive elephant over there.”
David: Lets make a fake roar. Lions: is that a WIRE? It’s a frrraaawrd.
Wow. Just wow. It’s unbelievable to think that even something as big as an elephant can fall prey to the mighty lion. Such an impressive animal. And while I’m on the subject can I just give a big thank you to Sir David Attenborough. Such a knowledgable narrator. I doubt we will ever see someone of his quality ever again, or at least not in my lifetime. Everything he lends his name and his expertise to is just incredible. On behalf of everyone here, thank you so much David. From the bottom of our hearts.

“in 1990 I tried to piss off some lions to make them roar but that didn’t work so I came back 12 years later to try again only this time I decided to try while they were going to be ratty at night. Here I am sitting 4 yards from two big lions that I cannot see due to the darkness, but I’m not scared those roars that are hurting my ears due to their proximity are only communication roars. Yes I have massive balls and I am the man!” Is basically what David said there.
Size is irrElephant, I’m not Lion

Lions definitely admire David Attenborough. He was such an easy target in that vehicle but lions decided against it.

That man had some balls… Calmly talking as if he is in the studio recording, yet several apex predators surround him in the dark… He can’t see them… But they can see him.

I was routing for that elephant
His voice is so lovely. I watch these videos more for him then anything.
30 lions vs 1 elephant??? Where was the elephant’s family or pack??? Reminded me of the Undead crowding out Drogon..
Thank You Sir David! Your an amazing treasure to the animals and people who share this planet! I love you!!!
Not knowing if David had a choice or not, I find it irresponsible to be in an unprotected vehicle in the middle of the night with lions. What if they attacked you? Would you shoot them to save your own life?

When young, I ENJOYED watching his programs. Many thanks, Sir David Attenborough!
Wow! What a hunt it was like 20 seconds long
in 0.35 sec “let’s just cut the wire and sleep”😂😂
There are few things more phenomenal than Lionesses scheming and the hunting together. Queens of the beasts indeed.
I just like this man’s voice tbh

That’s a huge pride lol
This is the first time I’ve seen this legend’s face. Always only heard his iconic voice.
Wish that elephant would’ve put up a fight, such as running right into the lions, perhaps stepping on and crushing some of them

Did Steve ever do this? I wouldn’t put it past him; Steve definitely liked being in the thick of it, but he seemed more like the standoff guy, based on what little idea of him I saw

Famous voice
Shoot all lions !!! They eat other creatures !!!
You’re true inspiration to many people…
Wow, that music helps a lot to the atmosphere.
Fully grown elephants are safe from such attacks, but it shows the power & coordination of a lion pride, they can take down elephants of that large size we just saw! David Attenborough, voted Britain’s greatest living person. He may be 93, but let’s hope he goes on for a few more years yet. He not only narrates but writes the scripts as well!

0:22 imagine walking in the grasslands and seeing that
They brought an elephant near the pride in order to film the hunt. All for the show. Sacrificing an elephant for the show
The music is more scary than the actual hunt 😂😂
Wow that was unreal
Ted Bear producer?

“filmed”
I DIDN’T see them bring it down
I actually imagine that’s how sabertooth cats hunted mammoths.
wow when they all poked their heads up out of the brush was amazing. you would never know all those lions were right there until it was to late. extraordinary big cats.

Thank you David for sharing your curiosity of life, you are a true friend of nature and have inspired so many of us to do the same!
You can never sleep when lions start their talks.

Amazing to think that the elephant forgot to stay with the herd.
How do lions accept members or do they just let them in ?
“Pass the blunt” is what one lion said I believe.
They are so beautiful!
