A screengrab of the video being circulated on social media.

PETALING JAYA: A video being shared on social media of two white tigers mauling a man did not happen recently at Sunway Lagoon as is being claimed, but actually took place at the Singapore Zoo in November 2008.

The actual incident made headlines when 32-year-old Malaysian zoo cleaner Nordin Montong leaped into the tiger enclosure and waded towards three tigers - Winnie, Omar and Jippie - in full view of shocked onlookers who initially thought it was a show.
