Kid Gleason Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 I sit here and just stare at that dang avatar of yours! What the heck is going on there??? I am guessing it is a fake penquin set-up to knock the other guy over, but what is it from and how did whoever do it? I love it, as I find penquins (Opus actually looks more like a Puffin though) just flat out funny on their own, then this just adds to the charm.

Queen Prawn Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 I am glad someone asked. I sat here watching that thing for about 5 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 (edited) I posted on it earlier too - it's hilarious and it had me watching it for minutes on end and laughing out loud EVERY TIME Bad Penguin tripped the other guy! WTell may chime in, but I think it's real footage. I've seen another equally funny clip of emperor penguins where one sticks out a foot and trips another one. I've always assumed such antics are just part of them being pretty clumsy out of the water... but maybe there's a mean streak in there somewhere? I mean, what about that Bad Penguin from Wallace and Grommit? Edited January 26, 2005 by FlaSoxxJim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise Master Buehrle Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 From all I have heard, it is fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I can see the flipper push being faked - but the pengin stumble into the drink has got to be real. Fark HOF material here. I do think the leg trip clip out ther eis real - I have to find it again. EDIT: well dang, on further review this one is also faked (but funny) http://www.veryfunnydownloads.com/downloads/videos/DODO.MPG Again, this clip sems to be taking advantage of the inherent clumsiness of these animals and embellishing a natural pratfall. Do you think Chevy Chase was a penguin in a past life? Edited January 26, 2005 by FlaSoxxJim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Ha Ha I knew it take a gander at this from 8 months ago: http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...ndpost&p=291122 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Double-dog damn! That's the same clip with the same penguin falling through the ice, and the same Bad Penguin videoshop'd into two different spots to do the shoving and the tripping! Good stuff, Maynard!
