00:04Leading comfortably. Should have closed the fifth set at 6-4.

00:40And this is not something that animals experience.
00:43We very well know that if a lion gets injured, especially in the limbs or in the jaws, it's going
00:51to prove fatal.
00:52Power is teeth, claws and muscle.

00:59For us, mental fortitude means a lot more than physical strength.
