Here's one:
It goes that the lion was originally meant to be standing proud and silent, but roared when two burglars rushed into the warehouse.
The burglars in question were Boris Regina and Karl Maninovsky.
Supposedly, Regina and Maninovsky would regularly rob banks and stash their loot at a warehouse a few blocks away.
One day, while the burglars' warehouse was normally empty, MGM and their lion were recording there. The lion roared at Regina and Maninovsky as they entered, after which MGM stopped recording.
The lion then jumped off the platform and mauled Maninovsky, who died two days later. Regina ran out of the warehouse and got run over by a police car heading to the bank he had just robbed.

Yeah, I heard about one of the lions mauling its trainer(s) once. Pretty interesting, to say the least.

All hail Leo. That's awesome. I hope it's true. Too bad they weren't something worse like rapists. I love when bad things happen to bad guys.
Most people like seeing flowers, rainbows, babies, or bunny to remind them that the world is a good place. Show me a rapist or murderer's head instanrtly turning into a pizza... I'm a happy camper.

Yeah, I've been to that PH a handful of times. The only thing that throws me off about that doll is the hair. Also, to me at least, (in person) it looks like it is carved out of wood and painted...

Yeah, the hair threw me off too. Like, "Chucky doesn't have THAT much hair... Does he?" Lol.
