Van Catches Fire While Inside a Lion Enclosure

That has to be the exact opposite of winning the lottery.

What was supposed to be the safari portion of their Good Friday quickly turned into an adventure when a woman and her two sons were forced to flee their burning van while they were inside the lion enclosure at the Longleat Safari & Adventure Park in Wiltshire, England.

Miraculously, nobody was injured or eaten, even though witnesses told the BBC a group of lions less than 100 yards away looked "interested." It's even more amazing when you consider the park had to destroy six lions due to violence a little more than two months ago.

Once Helen Clements and her two young boys realized their van was on fire, they jumped out of the vehicle. But as park rangers ran toward the burning van, they were yelling for the family to get back inside of it.

Say what?

Fortunately for the family, it wasn't necessary as a park vehicle pulled up within seconds and rescued them from what would have qualified as one of the top ten worst ways to die.

And fortunately for the rest of us, somebody decided to film the burning vehicle instead of getting out to help the family in distress.
