Cargo of Kings

What happens when your “cargo” isn’t boxes or baggage - but a full-grown lion?In this extraordinary episode of The Red Eye, we follow a true story unlike any other: a wildlife conservationist and his beloved lion, Aslan, take to the skies for a once-in-a-lifetime journey across New Zealand. Their mission? To film a high-budget circus-themed commercial in the snowy mountains of Cardrona.But transporting 260 kilos of raw power in a small cargo plane comes with a few… complications. As turbulence hits and nerves unravel in the cockpit, two unsuspecting pilots experience the most unforgettable flight of their careers.Told with heart, humour, and a touch of chaos, Cargo of Kings captures the unbreakable bond between man and lion - and the brave, slightly terrified pilots who made sure they both reached their destination safely.Music Credits for Cargo of KingsLion's Heart by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Artist: http://audionautix.com/Sound Effects by freesound_community from Pixabay  Sound Effect by Darina Evstafeva from PixabaySound Effect by Rahul from PSend us a text!
