WATCH: Terrifying moment Cheetah jumps into tourist' car!
Tourists got more than they bargained for when a cheetah got a little too close for comfort.
A group of tourists who were on a safari in Tanzania got more than they bargained for when a cheetah hopped into their vehicle.
In a video which has gone viral, Peter Heistein captured the uncomfortable moment a cheetah is seen on the back seat in the vehicle, sniffing around and checking it out. Needless to say, this was a terrifying situation, the occupants look pretty calm.
Britton Hayes was on a safari with his step-uncle in the Serengeti in Tanzania when a cheetah hopped into their vehicle. The cheetah was one of three brothers the group had been observing.
Hayes said the group’s safari guide told them to remain calm, stay quiet and to avoid making eye contact with the cheetah, and after a few minutes, the cheetah wandered off.
