Trump shares bizzare AI video of himself taming tiger

The family of William Chapman, a 23-year-old man who died after being attacked by a tiger at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, has asked people to stop sharing the fatal incident's footage on social media. The request came after US President Donald Trump shared an AI-generated video on his social platform, Truth Social, showing himself taming a tiger. The video, which ended with Trump embracing the animal while "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" played, appeared to parody the actual footage of Chapman's attack.

The family of Chapman, who had been battling mental illness for several years, expressed deep distress over the widespread sharing of the footage. In a statement, they urged people to stop circulating the offensive content, emphasizing that it was for the coroner to determine if Chapman's medical history played a role in his death. The tiger involved in the incident, an endangered Amur tiger named Altai, will not be euthanized, and the wildlife park remains closed pending an investigation.
