Napping security guard springs into life as leopard prowls past

This is the moment a security guard was allegedly caught napping - as a leopard prowled past.

Footage shows a man supposedly dozing at a table - when a big cat emerges and walks past into the night.

The man, said to be guarding a helipad near a tourist spot in northern India, springs into life as soon as the cat is gone.

Bosses at the helipad contacted local animal experts in the aftermath to try and ensure the leopard was caught, reports say.

The video was shot on July 24.
