A good friend of mine shared this with a group I'm in.
Some time in the past couple weeks while he was on vacation, they filmed this.
He lives in SA.

I was wondering the same thing ..
.. in addition, no way I'd get that close without something much more powerful than a camera ..

Jim, knowing Albert I'm sure there were firearms.
Actually I believe they were out hunting when they caught that on film.
Like you though, I don't think I would have wanted to be that close to it either.

Dang that thing is fast! You wouldn't have time to pull a trigger that close!

Yeah right, and think roughly 2 feet tall and wide, 6.5 feet long and up to 190 lbs.

Monkey was definitely on the menu.
