‘Tiger King’ universe has expanded once again and this time it focuses on one of the most controversial people known as Doc Antle. The first two editions of ‘Tiger King’ were mostly about Joe Exotic and his life before and after he went to prison. Meanwhile, Antle was missing from the second part so Netflix came out with a documentary series on Antle’s life.

When you thought it can’t get any crazier, the streaming platform treats us with a project that completely blows everyone’s minds. The story revolves around how Doc Antle became such a larger-than-life figure and how he became so greedy for power. In his initial year, he was a disciple of Swami Satchidananda and used magic shows in Yogaville, a camp that was made by Swami Ji for all his disciples.

However, he quickly showed his true colors and started to do things that were the beginning of the end for him. Antle used to be in a relationship with underage girls and have sexual relationships with them as well. Also, he used to touch private parts of underage girls while he was living in Yogaville. A few years later, he married several underage girls but left them when he lost interest in them.

According to people who know him, he was the 'Harvey Weinstein' of animal business.

‘Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story’ Ending Explained: Did Antle kill Mark? Or it was actually an accident.

Throughout the series, we get to know about the several disgraceful things done by Antle. From abusing young girls to having sexual relationships with underage girls, Antle was accused of multiple heinous crimes he committed during his life. He would beat women and have sex with them forcefully, even making some of them pregnant. But every single girl was underage.

However, things went to a whole new level when Antle was accused of killing one of his partners. A man named Mark came to work with him and helped him in taking care of the animals. However, soon they would dive deep into the marijuana business and become the biggest drug dealer in the area where they lived. Mark was one of the most beloved people working with him. Everyone loved him and he was a true gentleman.

The main problem with Doc Antle was that he was too controlling and felt that he is the ultimate power. So, any money that he used to make with the help of Mark and others, he used to take a huge chunk of it and won’t pay others what they deserved. Mark was pissed when he didn’t get his money back for a long time and decided to leave the facility, but Antle was dangerous and Mark had to leave before Antle got to know that he has left him. One day, he did get away from Antle and went on to start a new life, meeting with friends. However, he loved the animals and decided to go back there.

At first, it was alright, but things once started to get worse. Antle and Mark were working on a commercial with the animals where Mark met Antle’s ex-wife Sumati and asked her out on a date. She was happy and said yes. However, they could not go on a date before Mark died on the same morning that they were supposed to go out on a date. Since then, it has been reported that Antle was behind the death. It was reported that Mark died by falling off the Crabtree Falls. But his family and his friends think that Antle is behind all this.

Although, Mark’s brother did talk to the man who spent the last day with Mark and he told him that Mark jumped off a tree and fell down the waterfall.
