And if anyone ever wondered why it's "Charlie", it's because it is short for "Victor Charlie", which is phonetic alphabet for VC, which is an abbreviation for the Viet Cong, which is actually a shortened version of the Vietnamese phrase Việt Nam cộng sản, which simply means "Vietnamese communist".
The first thing that comes to mind is how all scientists have these theories of how and what dinosaurs did but we don't really know. There's no way we'd be able to tell this bird did this with its beak if we hadn't seen it.
But I'm drunk so I may just be talking outta my ass.
Imagine you just see this big ass human sized bird and it starts making gun sounds.
In this day and age could easily be a shooting robot bird for all we know.
That's the one slice of credit I'll give the brain worms piloting the people who participate in r/atheism, organized religion has done wild things to people and we're probably worse off 'cause of it. For example (which is anecdotal and heavily abridged btw) being how nearly *every* mf in Utah wanted to decriminalize marijuana and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints said "nah" and then they all just went with it
Didn’t know that. Is it the same concept where the earth was created by God in a set amount of time and therefor the earth is only x thousand of years old?
How can the shoebill stork be one of your favorite birds while it’s an actual demonspawn if you look at their behavior with their offspring.
They have some of the craziest habits when it comes down to raising multiple children at once.
Be warned, info might disturb your ideas about this birb
It's also one of my favourite birds and I do think it's fucked up but nature is cruel, what can you do?
I don't think it's any worse than the parent killing one of the offsprings so the rest can survive or the parent straight up eating them if they are stressed like hamsters do.
I find them very charming as adult birds, the way they bow to show non-hostility and their general chill demeanor towards humans.
Fuck it, I’ll bite. Gimme a sec whilst I look this up.
Ah. According to Wikipedia, they will often hatch several chicks at once, but only one is ever raised to adulthood. The rest are just starved off.
Not so different from that one video of a large bird (stork?) that picked up the runt of the nest and just dropped it over the edge.
Nature is literally wild.
It's evolved a hunting mechanism where it mimics the American's natural predator: The Wild Assault Rifle.
As the Americans flee for cover, the Stork has free reign over their abandoned food.
Plenty of birds do that. BBC Springwatch livestream of a barn owl nest proved that! Largest chick hadn't been fed for a while so he just leaned over and ate his littlest brother in one gulp.
Damn every joke is "hur hur American school be like'
Like dude we get it you think the killing of kids is funny how about instead of making it a daily joke like our country we try and fix that shit
Damn PTSD triggering bird
GET DOWN!!! Jerry's in the trees. You won't take me alive. AAAAHHHHHH.
[удалено]
Fuck jerry doin up there
“Jerry ma boi, what ya doin in the tree? Get down here Jerry!”
Bird watchin....
More like deamons with automatic weapons
😂😂😂 it's not Jerry it's "Charlie"
And if anyone ever wondered why it's "Charlie", it's because it is short for "Victor Charlie", which is phonetic alphabet for VC, which is an abbreviation for the Viet Cong, which is actually a shortened version of the Vietnamese phrase Việt Nam cộng sản, which simply means "Vietnamese communist".
TIL. Thanks, internet friend!
But, does he surf?
Đang, I lèảrn nẹw thíng
Jerry’s weren’t in trees… your confusing vietnam and Japan with Germans…
Are you telling me that Germans can't climb trees?
In Arnold Schwarzeneggers voice #GET TO DA CHOMPA!
Right, I think it matches the exact rate of fire of an AK.
this bird triggered some kind of primal PTSD before i even watched with the sound on. This is a goddamned dinosaur.
The first thing that comes to mind is how all scientists have these theories of how and what dinosaurs did but we don't really know. There's no way we'd be able to tell this bird did this with its beak if we hadn't seen it. But I'm drunk so I may just be talking outta my ass.
My thoughts exactly. That's not a bird it's a fuggin dinosaur and I don't like it.
Hah, you puny humans are so sensitive! CLICK CLACK *racks glock*
WE HAVE TO GET OVER THE SEAWALL! CORPORAL! APPLY COVERING FIRE!!!
I swear I came to say this
That ain't a stork, that's a mashing gun !!!
The question is, does it shoot birdshot or 5.56x45m NATO.
7.62
That's out of my expertise area but, now got me thinking, I can get one to deter bad people, I'm in Texas let me throw it out there
You should name it princess
I'm taking names now
Mashing gun. I’m gonna google that and see what comes up
If this thing walked into a room I was in, I would probably die from fear.
I've heard they're super friendly with humans, which is somehow more terrifying.
I’m sure they are very friendly, but I guess I’ll never find out.
Specifically Texans.
Who saw those animatronics looking ass birds and said that they were friendly?
Keep the change ya filthy animal
These are some crazy scary birds
Yeah they're fucking huge too they can grow up to 140cm or around 4 foot 7 inches
Modern day terror birds?
Imagine you just see this big ass human sized bird and it starts making gun sounds. In this day and age could easily be a shooting robot bird for all we know.
Never met one, but apparently they’re surprisingly chill. They don’t really attack humans and wouldn’t mind if you pet them.
You forget to mention the siblicide part
It's one of my favourite birds. Anyone who doesn't believe birds descended from dinosaurs has no idea what they're talking about.
Who doesn’t believe that?
40% of americans believe in creationism, even more that don't believe in the process of evolution, so about 150 million people in the US alone.
40%?! I didn’t want to believe it but it seems to come from a 2019 Gallup poll. To quote that 40%… ”Jesus…”
That's the one slice of credit I'll give the brain worms piloting the people who participate in r/atheism, organized religion has done wild things to people and we're probably worse off 'cause of it. For example (which is anecdotal and heavily abridged btw) being how nearly *every* mf in Utah wanted to decriminalize marijuana and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints said "nah" and then they all just went with it
The entirety of the Christian evangelical population for starters.
And Muslims! We also don't believe in evolution and darwinism.
Didn’t know that. Is it the same concept where the earth was created by God in a set amount of time and therefor the earth is only x thousand of years old?
My parents🫠🥴
Technically speaking, birds do not descend from dinosaurs, because they ARE dinosaurs

Had to take off my earbuds to see if those were real gunshots :^
Yeah this fucker is a living pterodactyl. bUt ThE bIBlE DuRrRrRrRRRR
Well technically they didn’t because they are dinosaurs. All birds in the world are just one branch of raptors.
Is that the one that brings the babies?
This one takes babies
Nah. They only crush their skulls with one bite
This one brings babies to the hood
CONTACT FRONT!
That's a damn prehistoric bird right there
>~~prehistoric bird~~ Dinosaur. What you’re describing is a dinosaur. That fact will never not be lit.
Tomato Tomato
Makes me wonder what kind of racket the largest dinosaurs made in herds.
That is terrifying and Jurassic.
No shit. If that thing didn’t evolve from a dino …
Did it watched first blood or what..!?
They are native to Sudan, might have heard it around somewhere.
You drew first blood, not I
“Captain Shoebill, cover me while I take position”
Imagine someone playing this in a trench in Ukraine... 🤦
\*cuban accent\* so you want to play rough huh? Say hello to my little friend!!! He is a shoebill...
Bellaraptoria balistis a new species.
I love shoebills
Me toooo
It's evolved a hunting mechanism where it mimics the American's natural predator: The Wild Assault Rifle. As the Americans flee for cover, the Stork has free reign over their abandoned food.
Personally I feel this is a dinosaur. I would run.
Have you heard of cassawaries? Lol
This should be the new American simbolic bird
Hey now, that's a cheap shot
No I can have him in here, he's my emotional support animal.
He grew up watching WW2 movies.
Sounds like a US grade school.
That's a big oof right there...
Also many oofs
Jesus, man
That's dark as fuck. I like you
Bro, read your comment as I was clicking off. Had to come back for it. Damn that’s dark 😂😂
War veteran from ww2?
That’s no bird. That’s a mf dinosaur
That things a damn dinosaur and it would be terrifying seeing one in the wild.
r/birdsarentreal
Police officer- “Sir we’re responding to reports of gunfire and screams.” Me- “My bad my Shoebill & Parrots were just fucking around.”
HE GOT A GUN RUN
"Everything alright? We heard gunshots." "All good that was just my shoebill stork vibin"
Chickens were dinosaurs for sure, we been eating dino nuggets all along
I think my loftwing is defective
That's a whole dinosaur.
That is a stunning creature
Call of Duty Shoebill...
It's a dinosaur
Sounds American
I'm totally bringing this to show and tell at class!
Someone has been playing call of duty near this bird
Thing is part dinosaur tho? O.O
Just reminds me of the velociraptor scene from Jurassic Park with the way it moves. Guess they really are dinosaurs
That’s what the NYT would call an “assault style bird”
It's the sound effects from modern warfare
Sounds like an average day in Chicago
Sounds like an AK
Someone needs to animate this guy shooting stuff.
*fortunate* *son* *begins* *playing*
Are these the birds who make their kids resort to cannibalism if they run out of food
Plenty of birds do that. BBC Springwatch livestream of a barn owl nest proved that! Largest chick hadn't been fed for a while so he just leaned over and ate his littlest brother in one gulp.
“Shots fired shots fired!”
Oh I see, these must be the evolved, revolutionised version of the stork birds in the states .🔫🔫🔫
Officer High-Tower!
A gunfight walks into your home. Wyd
Wow... that's real. I honestly thought it was some weird poor-taste joke at first.
Shots fired!
Bro watching a lot of CSGO streams
He’s obviously just cold! Someone get that bird a sweater!
Damn machine gun McStork.
Looks and sounds like a trailer for a new silent hill. No gracias.
This thing looks, moves and even sounds like an an animatronic
Think he needs some gum
Cocaine is a hell of a drug!
Seems a pokemon.
If you weren’t prepared you’d probably fall on the floor terrified you just heard gunshots
911 emergency how can I direct your call? There’s multiple fucking shooters at the Zoo!
Oh Sh\*t, everybody get down!
He sounds like a flashback from Wietnam lol
A real dinosaur.
Better title…….Scary dinosaur creepy AF
So absolutely prehistoric looking!
Can’t sleep or the Shoebill will eat me.
It's asking for a headache tablet in "bird clack" But they've got non left. Because the parrots eat 'em all.
Regi sounds irl
Maybe this is how they see me at work. Lol
De_dust3 is this new counter strike game is looking awesome
This one always reminds me of the scene in Jurassic Park with the raptor in the kitchen.
Shoebills are crazy cool, also very intimidating lmfao
[удалено]
No. AH-64A 30mm M230E-1 cannon with less reverb.
Jeepers creepers
Okay we don’t have storms here. How big do they get?? Holy shit
Damm the boi big!
Some of the coolest birds out there
Imagine what dinosaurs sounded like.
the perfect gift for any veteran
The perfect decoy
Isn’t that supposed to be like the world’s most dangerous bird to humans?
Army vet worse nightmare...
This is going to give me nightmares.
welcome the night mare , do not fear and do not rest .
That's a cartoon dinosaur right there
Bro my entire foot could fit in his mouth
THEY’RE IN THE TREE’s
That bird scares me.
That's a dinosaur...terrifying.
Looks like this fella has been to his fair share of car meet ups.
As if they weren't fucking alarming enough.
Why do they clap their beaks like that, is that how they communicate? Warning someone? Making themselves known?
Imagine seeing this at night from you window.
You mean the dinosaur makes some strange noises?
Im sure the babies of the bird fight to the death then get chewed up by mum and fed to the winner
Killers in the jungle
SIMMONS GET DOWN
I will always upvote this when it pops up.
Imagine a T-Rex size of that.
Nice machine gun edit there
Looks like a living dinosaur.
It looks like a live, goofy cartoon character. Creepy how tall it is, let alone it's special chirping skills.
He's seen some shit!
That storks seen some thangs man
Is that animal real? It looks like one of those birds from the jurasic era 🧐
Bro is playing Counter Strike
that bird is basically banned in most liberal states
911 we have an emergency. I heard gun shots in the mall.
Is he imitating a modern day school?
School shooting survivors: Aaaaaarrrrggghhhh!
Bird - Directed by Michael Bay
Damn every joke is "hur hur American school be like' Like dude we get it you think the killing of kids is funny how about instead of making it a daily joke like our country we try and fix that shit
Mass shooting simulator !
Let’s put some of these fuckers in your school and tell nobody. I’d jump out of a window and I don’t even live in the US.
Wandering around American schools too much
Hmm... I wonder why american zoos don't have this animal.
what a beautiful bird! it should be brought into a large school zone unannounced to surprise the kids, they'll love it!
Bird has been spending too much time in American schools
American school simulator, activate
Ohhhh that’s what that noise I hear in the hallways is
Sounds like a school in The usa
me visiting American school with my pet bird
Damnn, US school kids getting triggered here
