    just the kid on the pony is funny enough.

    then the bird, the dad and the best bit, the donkey….

    Oddly, the fixed camera is an asset. When everything is happening out of shot, but you can still hear the kid crying after the donkey has gone through it builds up up some suspense, and that tension is instantly broken again when the ostrich is kicked back into shot. 😀

    Why's that funny? That poor kid sounded terrified. I fail to get amused by distressed children, somehow…

    I think I'm laughing because of the increasingly bizarre series of incidents, and the incongruity of it. There's also a good deal of pure slapstick.

    Agreed that I'm not sure I'd stage either the hunting of children with ostriches or extreme ostrich fighting as forms of comedy in themselves. But the same goes for much "you've been framed" type stuff. 🙂

    Here in this office people seem more concerned about the kicking the ostrich got 😉

    Talkemada and feefoo are boring. Or old. Or both.

    Im sure the kid will get over it.

    Talkemada – is that the same distressed noise you made went dropped that car stero on your foot? Kid was sounding a bit worried unsuprisingly

    Thing is, if you phrase it as "how would you like to be chased by an ostrich while riding your pony? eh? eh? You wouldn't, would you?" it immediately becomes obvious that there is some potential for the situation to be amusing… 😉

    I love the way the little horse keeps increasing it's pace as it looks round and sees the bird gaining ground on it.

    and as above – the fixed camera position. I'm sure there was a sheep in there somewhere too.

    I kept hoping for the donkey to reappear from the RHS and grin into the camera!

    Tis true, I am old and boring.
    I think I'd have always felt the same though even when I was young and er…exciting.
    Some people laugh at other people in distress and some don't.
    I don't.

    Back to my mundane, mirth-free life then.

    It's not like the kid was in mortal danger…It's funny. You couldn't ask for a more random collection of things to be funnier…

    A man, a child, a donkey, a field, an ostrich…comedy gold

    I suppose it might have been funnier if the ostrich had disembowelled the kid and it got a loop of intestine tangled round its legs so that when it was fighting the bloke it kept tripping over, and when it falls it jerked the intestine and the kid's liver flew out and hit an anteater in the face, and the anteater fell into a swimming pool…

    Ok, I'll find it funny now you've explained it.

    God, I am grumpy.
    Ignore me.
    Still gonna pointlessly post this though.

    I'm going to come and disembowel you, video it, and stick it on You Tube. Teenagers will have the video clip on their mobiles, and find it well funny.

    You'll be gutted though…

    I expect if I videoed you being run over by a steam train and then put it up on YouTube you'd be chuffed to bits.

    They know they are going to be hiding behind the sofa for most of it, but they keep coming back for more!

    Doing exactly the same as me when I was their age 😉

    That's you, You're not me. Don't expect me to think like you do.

    And anyway, if your child was thrown from a pony, clearly very distressed, and then potentially in harms way from attack by a large flightless bird, like **** would you stand about laughing. You'd be right in there, setting your killer dog on it, and booting the **** out of it, admit it. You know I'm right…

    I'd find it funny if you fell off your bike and started crying though. I'd stand there and point and laugh in a cruel and unkind manner.

    Mind you, for you to fall off your bike would mean you'd have to be riding it a bit faster than walking pace, or actually sat on it down hills instead of pushing it and crying like a little girl, which isn't very likely…. 😉

    The only thing that would have made it funnier is if the fella had come back into shot running away from an angry Ostrich….

    Just watched it again….comedy gold. The donkey's timing is impeccable.

    Well I watched it twice – then again with sound (to see if the sound was the "funny" bit).
    It wasn't.

    I don't think it's funny – but then I don't think it's funny when my own children are scared either.

    I'm clearly in a minority here – but that's fine. I like minorities.
