Viral Video Showing Tiger Attacking Biker Is AI-Generated

Incident Review: Tiger Attack Video

A recent viral video purportedly showing a tiger attacking a biker and dragging him into the bushes has circulated widely on social media. However, thorough investigations by Newschecker found no credible reports confirming such an incident occurred.

Technical analysis of the video revealed visual inconsistencies, including unnatural movements of the tiger and a blending of the animal’s jaw with the person’s shoulder. This led to suspicions that the video may have been generated using artificial intelligence. A review with the AI detection tool Hive Moderation indicated a 99.9% likelihood that the video is AI-generated.

Further analysis using the WasitAI and Fake Image Detector tools also corroborated these findings, suggesting that significant portions of the video were likely created by AI technology.
