This reminds me of a video that's come up before in the schadenfreude thread, but I can't find it now. It was a comprehensive investigation of a gas leak becoming a gas station explosion, running about 20 minutes. Step by step, the investigation reveals that the people involved made the worst calls possible at every opportunity. Literally everything went wrong in the most spectacular manner until the inevitable happened.

Yes, that's the one. Thanks. It's long and potentially dry, but the amount of critical mistakes happening at every level is astounding.

The great part is that the adult guillemots land just as clumsily as the babies.

Speaking of clumsy birds, here's a young cockatoo so caught up in acting hungry and dramatic that he doesn't watch where he's walking.

A great horned owl is chased into Lake Michigan by a pair of angry falcons.

When he finally pulls himself to land, he has the most exasperated look on his face.

What a terrible day! A kindly onlooker distracted the falcons and let him fly to safety.

When Hillary Clinton tried one more time last month to get him to cut the [drug's] cost, he dismissed her with the tweet “lol.” At a Forbes summit in New York this month, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, he said if he could have done it over, “I probably would have raised the price higher,” adding, “my investors expect me to maximize profits.”

An African grey parrot learns to make an obnoxious sound. A cockatoo in the same household copies it. The African grey is very unhappy with this development and growls "poo poo!" and "Shut up!". But when it comes down to it, the bulk of the schadenfreude is on the humans in that house.

Every cockatoo sold at a pet store should come with a warning to turn off all fire detectors in the household. Burning to death would be preferable to listening to that sound day in and day out.

How about a more accurate one? "DON'T BUY ME!" The smarter an animal gets, the more assholish it can become.

Vancouver is home to Canuck, a very friendly crow that drops in and interacts with humans. This video shows Canuck playing in a car. It's pretty cute, but at 0:50, the situation suddenly escalates.

And speaking of video game schadenfreude... :monocle: Could Niantic have planned that Pokémon Go meetup any more poorly? I wonder why so many suckers signed up for it. The game has always been unstable and short on content, and it sounds like there was no contingency plan for keeping participants occupied if there were connection issues.

Punxsutawney is famous for their yearly Groundhog Day ritual in the USA, but there are several other towns that have notable groundhogs trotted out for the special day. One of them is Jimmy from the town of Sun Prairie. In 2015, the mayor of the town held a speech after Jimmy gave his forecast. For some reason, Jimmy was held up near the mayor's face during it.

Groundhogs are cat-sized, naturally aggressive, and have teeth like this:



So the inevitable happened.
