PAKISTAN, Nov 5, (Agencies): A viral Instagram video features a young boy confidently walking a tiger through an opulent home. Nouman Hassan, a Pakistani YouTuber known for his interactions with wild animals, posted the video, sparking mixed reactions.

The video shows the child casually walking the tiger on a leash, amassing 62.4k views within the week it was shared. While some praised the boy's bravery, others expressed concerns about the inherent danger of the situation.

Critics commented, with one person emphasizing the risk of being near a predator, while another labeled the act as "the most idiotic display of human intelligence." The video also prompted a remark that there's no shortage of foolish behavior in the world.

Nouman Hassan is no stranger to sharing such content. In a previous post, he shared a brief video of himself interacting with another tiger in a car showroom. Hassan also owns lions, which he acquired through an auction organized by the Lahore Safari Zoo the previous year to address space constraints and reduce their meat expenses.

In yet another video, Hassan is seen handling a crocodile while having a snake draped around his neck.
