I'm more than happy to admit that I shed tears of joy while watching the clip.

This is the clip I was sent;

The full documentary was on Channel 5 last night, I'm sure it will be repeated("The lion cub fom Harrods")

The word 'heartwarming' was invented for this film.

Blimey, quite amazing, they took a bit of a risk didn't they?

How the hell were Harrods able to sell a lion cub from a small cage? It was 1969 but still, seems out of order to me.

And yes, heartwarming indeed :)

Yep ... there is another video on Youtube, it has a different ending. ;)

a video has surfaced which shows parts of the viral video up to the point that Christian starts to run. At this point the video quickly switches to a clip of a man being attacked by a lion while his companions shoot at it with rifles, and an ending subtitle saying "He did not remember them."
