Believe it or not, we were only about 6 feet from the lion...literally. The only thing between my wife and I was a large guy with a rifle. We were on a safari in Zimbabwe, Africa. We had been trying to find lions all night long and stumbled on a pride of female lions. This one charged us several times. Pretty crazy.
