Thanks For Sharing So Lovely Touching Clip ^_^

If the story is made up, the person making it must have a kind soul then. ;)

Thanks for sharing this amzing clip sweetie. I just learned that my distant relative met with an accident and there's a damage to his brain and he can't even manage a normal conversation now. It scares me to think that we just don't know what's gonna happen next and.....well....i guess, just live and love !

it is a lovely touching clip but I have to agree with Fish Chaar, as the same thoughts ocurred to me as i was watching it

i don't think christian could have been the leader of his own pride...from his size, he isn't quite fully grown yet nor grown a full head of mane as such he would have been hard pressed to challenge the dominant male of an existing pride in order to takeover. and no pride would 'adopt' a lone male youngster, cos the alpha male would nvr tolerate it.
as for christian's wife who doesn't know the humans at all, it's even less believeable that she'd be so docile.
there's no doubt the 2 men and christian share a close bond....but i'm pretty sure that part of the story is made-up.
It's good story telling though :)
