He goes into a cage with animals whose nature it is to eat him. He outsmarts them. He explains why animal trainers use chairs: not to hold off a savage beast, but to confuse it. ``Lions are very single-minded,'' he says. ``When you point the four legs of a chair at them, they get confused. They don't know where to look, and they lose their train of thought.''  So there we go - now you all know why Lions are scared of chairs.</blockquote>
