About This Quiz

None of us saw "Tiger King" coming. A documentary about a guy who owns tigers sounded like a nature documentary your grandma would watch. Turns out it's no nature documentary. Instead, it's a true-crime documentary that instantly took the internet by storm. Doesn't it seem like everyone you know watched it? Every person in "Tiger King" is larger than life and it's hard to figure out who, if anyone, you should be rooting for. These people go from being monsters to sympathetic and back again in the span of moments. They do horrible things, say horrible things ... and then somehow it kind of makes sense by the next episode. It's nothing like anything we've watched before. 

Limbs get eaten, truckloads of cold cuts are fed to tigers, there are group weddings and cults and shootings and explosions and country music videos packed to the gills with cringe. They say that truth is stranger than fiction, and "Tiger King" takes that to heart. With all the crazy characters in this doc, there has to be one or two who are at least a little bit like you, right? Even if you don't want to admit it? Take the quiz and see!
