I don't know what story this idea comes from - when I was a kid we somehow had the idea that cut up tiger hairs were sharp like glass and could be used for assassinations! Ring any bells?

Just to clarify, for some of the more hysterical answerers! This came from a children's story or fairytale I was read when I was a kid. I do not actually believe it. I will not actually try it. Ho hum...

What books are you reading??? Do your parents know you think these things? Aren't these the thoughts of a young serial killer. I mean it man, get help, run do not walk to the nearest shrink and get help...I'm moving man I don't even want to be in the same county let alone state as you...Seriously 1-800-dial a shrink. or www.shrinksareus.com whatever get help and put down those voodoo books. Stay at least 5000 miles away from me. Help he's pulling us all down into the pits of insanity aka hell...by the way when you pull those tiger hairs take a pic for us that should prove vaguely amusing.
TTFN Weirdo,
LOL
Still like ya though, your strangely amusing.

ahh bless you!
one of my family told me that one when i was a little girl.
put the wind right up me!
something to do with the spirit of the tiger being so dangerous that it stayed in their fur or something.
i don't know, like i said, i was a little girl, but it put me off tigers for life.
don't worry tho, it is a myth designed to scare little kids.nithing more. hope this helps!

Only if they're still attached to the tiger. What you've heard is probably folk-lore.

sounds like Louisiana voodoo do to me I doubt it, but by all means go ahead and pull some tiger hairs and try it.

If you attached the tiger to them, yes.

Any hair would do it. Just dip it in a good deal of cyanide beforehand.
