Just goes to show you, something or other

In the book The Tiger, John Vaillant writes about crazy people who capture tigers alive, using a forked branch to "pin them down, somehow"
and then the men (usually four at least, which tells me lunacy is alive and well) paw-cuff and hog-tie the unfortunate tiger and put it into a bag (presumably not paper),

Proof that whether you're lucky, or skilled, something will kill you;
