Caught by a tiger, man's narrow escape in Maharashtra; watch video | Sansani

In a nail-biting situation, a man lies stiff as a corpse in the middle of a field and a tiger sits over him.

In videos captured by witnesses in Maharashtra's Bhandara district, the tiger is first seen being chased around a field, while a huge crowd of villagers stands at a distance.

Later the big cat suddenly pins down one of the men, who remained motionless as the tiger sits almost top on him.

The man using his presence of mind escaped the deadly paws of a wild tiger by pretending to be dead.
