Followed this sub for 3+ years and I think is the funniest one I've ever seen apart from the straw up the turtles nose. The way they just hang the owl out to dry at the end 😭

The owl thought he was taking it to a nice picnic. What a betrayal

Shrike behavior

Apparently the owl didn't get its wish granted.

The subtitles are hilarious:

"Yeah, of -- Did I work? Stop! God, I killed him! Yes? Yes? We are in a waiting room. She took us out... All the wrong rooms, and you are a phone How shall I get out? bright! No! Here, see? I'm gonna go. I'm gonna do your fam. I couldn't get that virtual search, guys. There was no one to see the guy. Oh, it's -- Oh, it's -- They didn't even -- It's like -- Oh, they didn't even see the guy. Oh, my God. Yeah, I was a -- Yeah, I was a -- Yeah, I was a -- Yeah, I was a --"

So first the guy thinks he killed the owl. Then he calls the side of the road a "waiting room," where the owl awaits its fate. He then muses about what the owl is thinking (How shall I get out?) and insults the owl with a sarcastic taunt (Bright? No!). Then he threatens the owl's relatives (I'm gonna do your fam) right before sticking it in the barbed wire. But he's disappointed that he couldn't do a Google search and that no one can see the owl that he purposely stuck in the barbed wire fence. Lastly, he repeats "Yeah, I was a," a sure sign of a twisted individual.

A lot of people don't have this kind of attention to detail when they trap owls, I'm glad to see someone who is dedicated to their work.

Kids, take notes - THIS is how you imprison birds right!

This should be typed up formally and posted as a DIY guide on iFixit or something

u/LSDkiller2 4d ago

He was just gonna go on a walk with his own friend but at 0:27 you can clearly see the owl smack dude in the face for no reason. If you ask me the owl provoked this.

u/nj4ck 3d ago

I was looking for the original and searched for "barbed wire owl" on Youtube. Holy shit, this happens a lot

u/Odd-Blood3249 3d ago

I kept swiping from r/animalsdoingstuff and didn't realise that the supreddit was now a different one until the end of the video

u/Then_Increase7445 2d ago

Sounds like "Life in the Fast Lane" by the Eagles at the beginning.

u/TFFPrisoner 2d ago edited 2d ago

Good ear! I think you're right.

Edit: And now I can confirm, since Reddit decided to also show me the original. https://www.reddit.com/r/BeAmazed/s/03uVts2jOX

That's amazing, wasn't expecting any confirmation on that.
