Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):A UK news outlet is being criticized for suggesting Skyrim may have influenced the death of a 24-year-old man who entered a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park. The Daily Mail noted that William Chapman was a Skyrim fan who took a photo with a crossbow that day, and suggested he might have been “living out a fantasy” from the game. There is no evidence linking Skyrim to the incident. Chapman did not take the crossbow into the enclosure, and there is no indication he was trying to hunt the tiger.
