The man, using his presence of mind, plays dead in an attempt not to get mauled by the tiger. This tactic of the man seems to have worked as the tiger doesn't attack the man. Within a few seconds, the crowd comes running towards the tiger chasing it away.



Two other people were also injured after a tiger attacked them on January 25.



A video of the incident was tweeted by a forest officer. "You want to see how does a narrow escape looks like in case of an encounter with a #tiger. #Tiger was cornered by the crowd. But fortunately, the end was fine for both man and tiger," said an Indian Forest Service officer.
