That demographic also includes Reddit user Swimming-Confusion58, who recently decided to shake things up a bit by bringing a lion into a house for some playtime. What ensued was a rather stressful episode of something between catch and hide-and-seek wherein the feral cat wasn’t all too interested in doing the hiding part. This went on for over a minute, with Arthur carefully maneuvering around all rooms on the first floor of the cabin as the lion followed along, looking not-too-amused throughout the endeavor. The footage of the daring escapade ends just as the giant cat finally catches up with Arthur, leaving viewers to fill in the blanks about how this high-riskRed Dead Redemption 2stuntended.

WhileRed Dead Redemption 2has no shortage of dangerous legendary animalsto throw at the player, the game’s sole lion is among its deadliest creatures. The feral cat is capable of instantly killing Arthur, which is an ability that Rockstar only bestowed to one other animal in the game, the Legendary Giaguaro Panther. Fans would hence do well to avoiding getting trapped with the lion indoors, unless they are as “bored” as Swimming-Confusion58 claims to have been at the time they decided to invite the king of the beasts for some playtime.

Granted, getting a house call from the lion inRed Dead Redemption 2isn’t something that’s likely to happen; the creature can only be encountered once per playthrough—at the Emerald Ranch in The Heartlands—and is next to impossible to actually lure into any nearby cabins.

To side-step that limitation, this daring player opted to spawn the lion in their designated hide-and-seek area using a “menu mod.” There are severalRed Dead Redemption 2mods that fit that vague description, with the Ozark Mod Menu being among the most popular of that lot. PC players who aren’t interested in Ozark’s extended functionality and merely want to have some fun with the game’s deadliest predators might instead want to choose a spawning mod instead.

Red Dead Redemption 2is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
