One commenter wrote: “That turtle is me in another life.” It’s not the first time an unsuspecting influencer has been bitten on the bum by a cheeky animal. Another hilarious video showed a pig nipping a Venezuelan model and fitness coach as she posed for pics on a beach in the Bahamas. Michelle Lewin, 32, got a shock when four feral pigs came over to inspect the shoot. One appeared to take a dislike to what was going on and gave Michelle a little nip on her bottom causing her to let out a yell and quickly run away. To make matters more embarrassing for the model another pig then gave chase and Michelle ran towards some rocks. The footage then cuts to the model who is clearly shocked by the attack and she shows off the bite mark. Fortunately the Instagram star didn’t suffer too much, showing off just a small wound to the camera. The footage went down well with her 13.3million followers on the social media site and has so far been viewed over four million times in just 14 hours. Her fans saw the funny side with one describing the small mark on her bum as a “love bite”. While another wrote in Spanish: “I think I would have done the same.” Comment now
