Introductory intertitle reads: How would you like to enter a lion's den, after having been badly mauled a month before! As a supreme test of nerve, this requires some beating... as Clyde Beatty the trainer, shows. • • M/S through bars of a cage showing lions being let into an enclosed space. They roam around the enclosure. A trainer walks around outside the cage teasing the lions with a stick. He pokes the stick through the bars of the cage and hits the lion on the head with it - basically provoking the lion into anger. The lion roars. • • The lion tamer steps into the ring and starts cracking his whip. He holds a chair in front of him and continues to torment the lion who gets very angry. At one point the lion grabs the stick from the lion tamer's hand. • • The lion tamer wears jodhpurs and boots and is very macho. When he stands in a certain pose with one leg stretched out behind the other and his head down the lion is calm. Several people watch the display through the bars of the enclosure. • FILM ID:1590.02 • A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
