President Donald Trump posted a bizarre AI-generated video on Truth social, showing him wrestling a tiger that killed a man at a zoo in Yorkshire. The AI video is an apparent recreation of the horrific incident, where child actor William Chapman died after entering a tiger enclosure at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster, England.

The incident lasted only a couple of minutes. Chapman, believed to be in his 20s, was pronounced dead at the scene. “The publication and circulation of deeply offensive media content is causing them severe distress at an exceptionally vulnerable time. We ask people to stop doing this. William was a bright, warm and engaging young man whom his family dearly loved – and William loved them back. They added, “Sadly, William suffered from significant mental illness over a number of years and was consequently prescribed strong medication. It will be for the coroner to decide what part this played in his death. We would ask everybody to respect that process.”
Chapman’s family said in a statement that he “suffered from significant mental illness,” and described him as a “bright, warm and engaging young man. “The family are utterly devastated by their loss and are struggling to come to terms with what has happened,” said the family.
