The video captured a heart-stopping incident in Corbett, where a man narrowly avoided a potentially fatal encounter with a tiger. Shared by Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Parveen Kaswan on X (formerly Twitter), the footage showed a lone man walking along a forested road during the early morning. Suddenly, he faced a tiger about to cross the road. In a split-second decision, the man turned his back to the approaching tiger, and, surprisingly, the tiger crossed without any aggression, leaving the man unharmed.
