I guess god was on a break at the time according to this report
KIEV — A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in the Kiev Zoo after he crept into an enclosure, a zoo official said Monday.
“The man shouted ‘God will save me, if he exists,’ lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions,†the official said.
“A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery.â€
