Regardless of what made the tiger attack...it did
I guarantee Roy did not go on that stage expecting to have a seizure or for the tiger to do what it did...
Circumstances beyond his control were at work.....the tiger is a wild animal no matter how many times it has 'perfomed' and will react accordingly
Same as the croc at Steves zoo....it maybe more managable than a true wild croc...but it still has 'wild' in it and as such an unpredictable result can occur
All it takes is something beyond his control to happen...and his 1 month old son could have been seriously injured or dead
Many a handler has been caught unawares by the animals in his/her care
