They find it freeing.

It's lovely.

And they feel...

light.

They like the solitude of being in space and other people are like, I'm going crazy here and I need to see people and I just want to throw up all the time.

So I happened to be one of those people who was able to find resilience and was able to use it to become, use the challenge in some ways to become a deeper person.

Yeah, it was an accident.

I was working with a lion who I loved and worked with every day.

It was an old lion, had no teeth.

very old, on a Disney movie.

And they kept them in zoo structures at night, but they hadn't put enough security on them.

So kids at night, in the middle of the night, would come and shoot BB guns at the lions.

There were two other lions.

One was a stand-in lion, and one was like a stunt lion.

Were they in the union?

Exactly.

Oh, yeah.

There's a whole animal training thing that we do in the film business.

And so the trainer couldn't get the old lion to work, so he just wouldn't move.

And you can't make a 500-pound lion do anything.
