Family escapes cheetah attack in Dutch safari park: video

A video was posted on YouTube showing a family barely escaping aggressive cheetahs after getting out of their car in Dutch safari park Beekse Bergen. The park could not confirm whether the footage is real, RTL Nieuws reports.

The rule in Beekse Bergen is do not get out of your car. But this family seems to have missed that rule.

They parked their car next to sunbathing cheetahs and got out to take some pictures. A small child also got out of the car to peek around the corner. Nothing happens.

A little later, the family stopped a bit further away and walked further from their car. The cheetahs approach them. They all escaped unharmed, but it was a close thing.
