It's Tony Parker versus a tiger. Place your bets.

During a recent appearance on the French game show "Fort Boyard," which draws comparisons to "Fear Factor" in North America, Parker was tasked with driving a caged, foot-powered vehicle to fill a container with water, as French basketball stars Boris Diaw, Ronny Turiaf, and Nicolas Batum provided him with the liquid.

Too bad there was a giant tiger in the way, looking to prevent the San Antonio Spurs point guard from completing his task.

Diaw wasn't helping matters by taunting the tiger, putting Parker even more on edge.
