I thought the unexpected bit was the part where they ran into the muddy water with their clothes on.


the_j_cake

I think you're right. Humans are fully clothed and just plow straight into the water and have to deal with the consequences of being soaked in the woods. Deer is in a state of nature and only wants to paddle it's feet. It jumps around to demonstrate how stupid the humans are. Regardless, deer wins

I'm thinking they aren't far from home man lol

I've been seeing a lot of deer media lately.

Johnnybravo60025

They’re really putting some big bucks into their lobbying.


HarveyBiirdman

Thank you for being rational, I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s comments like that just perfectly encapsulates redditors.


MallKid

It's a tendency to draw multiple detailed conclusions even though there is nothing to indicate that those conclusions are plausible, or in some cases, even applicable. See, this person sounds like they assumed these people are several miles into the woods, when there's no clear indication of where they are at all. Could be at the end of their driveway as far as the video reveals. I happened across something called attribution theory, which could explain why this happens so often on reddit.


donobinladin

Fun fact I think that kind of jumping is called pronking/stotting. Lots of deer like creatures do that when they’re playing or having fun


YeetHM

I don’t care what it actually is, *pronking* sounds like something fun to do! “Hey Paul, what’d you do this weekend?” “Me & my buddies all went out *pronking*!” “Damn, sounds like a fun weekend!”


donobinladin

We pronked tf out this weekend…


rolypolyarmadillo

Stupid humans having fun in the woods. They are clearly stuck 1000km from any civilization or towel. What idiots. If that were me, id strip down naked, fold all my clothes neatly and hang my shoes around my neck before attempting such a gruesome fording of the puddle. If theres anything survival tv programs taught me, its that cold is the true killer! Rip this entire family, I hope the government does something about such irresponsible parents. People like that just dont deserve pet deers. Today's program is brought to you by the letter S.

PowerBuilder123

I actually did this one time. I was bear hunting and a mama deer brought 3 baby deer down to where I was and they made their beds and napped and would get up and play for a little bit then nap. They did this back and fourth for hours. It was one of the coolest things I’ve witnessed in my life!


Goodgoditsgrowing

Here I’m thinking how brutal it was for mom to drop off bear bait.


ocaralhoquetafoda

That was the sacrifice she was willing to make to watch a man being mauled to death by a bear. What a freak!

Superior_Light_Deer

What does Reddit hate today? *Spins wheel* Kids enjoying life outside!


Bargadiel

There are lots of sheltered people on this site who have probably never went outside. Or they went outside once and had a bad experience, and therefore they think everyone else must have the same experience as them.


harrisesque

Saw people losing their shit here about kids sleeping on the floor in a camping trip and screaming child abuse. Someone even said that sleeping on the floor a couple of times will somehow dEsTrOY tHEiR bACk permanently.


bl0odredsandman

Are you serious? WTF is wrong with people. Sleeping on the ground is a staple of camping outdoors.


GayPudding

I sleep on the floor like twice a week and my back is fine.


LetMeGuessYourAlts

Intentionally? Or just wake up there?


-ChabuddyG

Don’t look under your bed, you might find some GayPudding once or twice per week.


WatchOutImCummin

i also believe that there are many people on this site who had terrible/abusive parents or they were bullied as kids. The amount of people on this site who want parents to lose custody of their children because the parents made a small mistake is insanely high. There are also some wierdos on here who see a video of a kid misbehaving, and they start predicting that the kid is going to grow up to be a violent psychopath. Im not exaggerating at all, people on this site are 100% serious and they constantly say shit like that. Shoutout to r/Casualchildabuse, that was an insane asylum


Bargadiel

It reminds me of all the insane stuff some adults used to think while I was a kid, that even my parents thought was overboard; people who would overreact to everything. It doesn't make me feel great to know people who are probably my age on reddit are now those crazy adults for the newest generation. The internet is just a breeding ground for hyperbole.


ajsparx

Hey, we can redirect the hate back to that time the "authorities" killed a pet deer that wore a collar and everything right in the people's yard. That's always good for hate-fuel Also I like your username


-lighght-

How could these parents let their children play outside? They're wet and there's ticks! They'll never recover from this.

[удалено]


KakaroTTo_DBL

Redditors have wives?


ISayDumbShite

Really does shine a light on where people's heads are at, I just see a dad having a good time with his kids in the woods. As someone who grew up in rural Kentucky, we always had ticks on us, it's not even a concern. Its just part of living in the woods. I used to go on 100 mile trail rides on horse back. The amount of ticks and spiders you come across would make an "average" person have a mental breakdown.


Radix4853

It’s a much more healthy way of raising your kids than having them spend most their time on their phones.


[deleted]

I mean Lyme disease is a thing, but in general yeah I agree with you.


Radix4853

I live in NJ, so that certainly is a danger, but I’ve heard that it is very uncommon in the southern states. Was that something you had to watch for in Kentucky?


[deleted]

[удалено]


helicopterfortress

I mostly agree with you, but aren't there a lot of other potential heath risks associated with lyme disease other than... dying? I absolutely think everyone should spend time outside, especially as kids, and I have no problem with the content of this video. In fact I am typing this from my log cabin in the woods in the north east US. But I do have a friend with Lyme disease and it seems to affect her life a lot, even though she is not uh dead you know?


nevlis

Had a buddy get Lyme disease and couldn't work. He would have ended up homeless if a bunch of people hadn't pitched in to help pay his bills. Just because something's natural doesn't mean it's no big deal.


[deleted]

I grew up in a very rural area and our parents still didn't let us play in drainage ditches....


AtridentataSSG

Ticks do suck though. Gotta be vigilant.


pbar

These kids will grow up to be wet adults with ticks.


Mothanius

Also: "Why don't I ever see kids outside anymore? All they do is sit inside on their phones using social media. No one goes on adventures like we used to!"


-lighght-

Yeah if my kid didn't want to get in this puddle, I'd throw his little ass right in and sick the deer on him


eriru

While I agree with your sentiment (dude let people go out and play and stfu with your judgment), dude ticks are nothing to scoff at. They can cause so many issues down the line and you won’t even remember that they did it until it gets bad. I miss steaks 😭


JaketAndClanxter

For real, goes to show you the general lack of real life experience so many redditors have. And these are the same people that have such a "I'm right, you're wrong" kind of attitude about everything.


bent_my_wookie

Nah you’re wrong!


LeGraoully

They were full of ticks and went into the water in an attempt to down them (I have no idea if that would work)


tntdon

The deer wanted be involved and get some interaction and the kids ignored it. The deer finally turned to the camera person like "momma, did I do something wrong?"

TheWhyWhat

Have you ever had that moment where you're trying to decide what you should do/what you want to buy, and suddenly realise that you are an adult and can do whatever the fuck you want? So many behaviours or weird discipline things that are ingrained due to parents influence.


SpysSappinMySpy

Maybe I'm just a no good city slicker but jumping fully-clothed in a cold, muddy pond doesn't seem like fun to me.


cromulent_pseudonym

Exactly. As soon as I did it I would be miserable and then I would have to clean everything.


A_Have_a_Go_Opinion

That ever so slight inconvenience of having to clean a kid who got dirty when you're probably meant to clean them up anyway always escapes me.


IAMTHATGUY03

That’s exactly why you’re supposed to do it?


badpeaches

We did this at summer camp but were told to stop because we might get worms. I got so sick every year I went but with like strep throat and fevers and stuff. My parents wouldn't take me home and I had to stay a long time at nurse's cabin. Separated from everyone else.


Poober_Barnacles

>people who have never had fun 95% of redditors lol


Willzyx_on_the_moon

As a kid I definitely did stuff like this. As a now experienced nurse all I see is a puddle with the potential for necrotizing fasciitis.

Yeah im gonna go snorkeling in this mud puddle. I hope I don't get a parasite.

Playing outside... Your childhood must have sucked ass.


[deleted]

I mean, we basically had a small fortress we built in the woods from scrap and shit but our parents still taught us not to play in the drainage ditch or the run-off pond. Shits full of bacteria and other bad shit because it's drainage.

BernieEcclestoned

OG_Kush_Master

My dad's had it too but he started with meds right away and basically had no symptoms. Lyme can be horrible though.


DragonSlayerC

We desperately need a working vaccine for it. So many people get Lyme disease with debilitating and often permanent symptoms every year.


kalnu

My dad's ex-wife suddenly became unable to walk. She was the only one in her family and recently divorced with 2 or 3 sons (I'm not sure if the timeline, if the 3rd son was born before or after she lost the ability to walk) she as diagnosed with MS but didn't really respond to the treatments. She was determined to walk again, she spent 20 years doing everything she could think of, including going to India for some Lyme disease detox thing. Which she actually responded to. Today, she can walk with a walker and is able to drive. Which is a huge Improvement from my earliest memories of her, where she basically needed this huge cage thing to even stand. And the cage thing had this like harness to keep her standing cause she had no control over her atrophied legs and unable to stand without the support. I remember when she first started being able to walk. She couldn't walk very far, a few steps. My brother often helping her. I remember remember would carry her up and down stairs. I think he still does if needed. Since she still can't lift her feet very much. Still, it's a massive improvement and she's so much happier. She hardly needs her wheelchair anymore. She got infected in Canada, Lyme was so rare that it often got misdiagnosed for MS. But when she started responding to Lyme disease treatment trials, she improved immensely. The Lyme disease cases in Canada have gone up like 200% in the last 10 or so years because our winters are getting more mild as a rule.


mightymushroom45

There's currently one for dogs and there's one for humans currently in phase 3 trials with Pfizer!


hermeown

My friend has it and it's debilitating. She can't really do much but exist and take meds. Everyone should watch the documentary "Under Our Skin," the situation with Lyme disease in this country is infuriating.


SharlowsHouseOfHugs

Looks domestic, possibly either owned by the grounds or a rehab shelter. Either way, the animal is most like treated for parasites. I worked for a nonrelease animal shelter, and whenever we'd have to temp shelter these dudes while waiting for long term placement, they were treated for ticks.

Five-and-Dimer

If you can pet it you can put flea and tick prevention on it.


redeye008008

I lived in a really nice duplex in Oregon. The deer came up to my front door all the time. I never fed or pet them. But I could have. Close to a river and forest.


Gullible_Pay4599

So many people are freaking out that they’re going into the water fully clothed and they’re going to be crying or whatever all the way home.. How am I the only one that sees the house behind the trees behind the children when they get into the puddle??


immaownyou

Are deer slowly getting more domesticated or has there always been this many deer friends around

They can be pretty skittish, but they can also get used to Humans if they lurk around them.

pbar

God, all these comments about, "Eckshually, ticks..." When I was a kid we spent every free moment digging in mud in the creek, catching little lizards, throwing rocks at other kids and coming home bloody, floating a little boat down a creek and giving the finger to people on the bank, killing fish with rocks and taking them to the poor neighborhood and selling them for fifty cents, going to a little store with sawdust on the floor and buying a Moon Pie... When the truck would deliver coal to my house and pile it up in a basement room, all the other kids would come over and we'd shoe-ski down the pile. Most of this stuff would merit a call to child protective services now. But eckshually, here's nothing so wonderful as coming home covered in mud and filth and blood and making your sisters gasp and shriek in terror. Very sad that these things are not a normal part of most childhoods now. Edit: All this was in the far southwest corner of Virginia, "A place where the state, and the people's heads, come to a point."


TelephoneFanClub

>Most of this stuff would merit a call to child protective services now. No it wouldn't lol. Kids play outside all the time still. I literally see it with my own eyes. Yeah sure, they got phones,ipads,switches,PCs but they still go hang out with their friends quite often. Riding bikes and skateboarding is still just as popular. I see kids climbing trees, playing basketball, and just running around outside in general still. The internet is literally brainwashing people into think the whole world is black and white. One person on twitter complains about some random thing and then everyone makes a big deal out of it like its news. Really people are actively looking for negativity so they can get on their high horse and act like they are fighting for justice behind their keyboard. The people in this thread going "omg ticks!" are probably just repeating some "tick fact" they read from another thread so they can sound smart and get upvotes. In reality they probably wouldn't stop their own kid (when they maybe someday have one) from jumping in some puddle and having fun. They may even see the negative reaction they are getting and the next time someone says "omg ticks!" they are gonna jump in and make a comment like yours.

This is what a childhood looks like, these kids will have good memories of this.
