that there is a cheetah looking at him with great interest through his sun roof. Or if, right after this picture was taken, did he turn around and yell "GAAAHH!" at which point the cheetah either (a) ran way, or (b) pounced on his head. I'm thinking (a) because cheetahs are actually fairly docile and not much inclined to eat people.

The man was in a Range Rover with a sun roof. A cheetah jumped up on the roof and peed on the guy's head!
