looks fake to me, tigers usually cant jump that high, at least not from the discovery and animal planet shows I have watched!! Not saying it isnt, sure looks authentic, but.............. that tiger jumped pretty damn high to get up to that guy on top of an elephant!!
i'd hazard a guess and say thats genuine if you've ever seen a tiger in its natural habitat, you'll appreciate the awesome power of these cats!
this was a response on the youtube comments: I found a news article about the attack ... but YouTube won't allow me to include the URL. Go to wildlifetrustofindia dot org and search for Joymala, the name of the elephant the mahout was riding. She is credited with saving his life. I found the story: http://www.wildlifetrustofindia.org/html/news/2004/040609_joymala.htm
