Note to self: never intervene in a hippo fight.
Perché mai,io intervengo sempre

😂😂😂
right! in no context is that a good idea.
It's why the security on Jerry Springer are trained professionals.
He didn't become a target. Hippo was just telling him stay out of hippo business. 😂🤣😆
Yep. I saw the same
Exactly, I'm not a wildlife expert, but he opened his mouth to show his teeth/power, then walked away then stared at the zookeeper again, obviously you shouldn't be nonchalant, its still scary even if it's just a warning
Yes absolutely. The hippo did not intend to hurt his caretaker. He came out of the house holding the giant branch as a shield to push the man away and then when he was on the ground the hippo got his face and said “Son, this doesn’t concern you; go away.” If the hippo wanted to hurt the man he could’ve bitten him easily but he didn’t. The second “charge” looked like a slow amble to make sure the man was leaving and to issue a final “I said what I said.” Wild hippos do attack and kill people When they feel threatened and their eyesight is not that good. But this hippo obviously had no intentions of hurting the man who took care of him. As you say he just wanted him to butt out of hippo business.
@marywenzel3199 as I said most people would still sh!t their pants, could have been worse if he got even a little bit defensive, honestly the scarier a creature is the more cocky they are about it, the more dangerous well... they can be cocky (or human) but usually the animals that are actually dangerous know their power, unless it's bears, or dolphins, those things are fuckijg crazy
@@TheCulinaryCompanion No doubt it was terrifying. That was a really impressive display of threat. He was definitely mad but I think not so much at the man as the hippo he was fighting. Hope they settled their differences.
It’s one of those stories which feels like my grandpa would tell us and no one would believe him thinking he’s too old and out of his mind😂
"Thar wuz a time, ya know, Ah wuz man enuf to break up a hippo faight! Okay, Granpa. Take your medicine and get some sleep. Hippo fight...right...We need to call County Home.
❤
lol.... that sounds so cute, ol' grandpy stories.... they're the best.... awww
Realy😅
A zookeeper tried to break up a Hippo fight? I nominate him for this year's Darwin award.
Fr 😂😂😂
Fake danger, just a show. When the zookeeper knows he can intervene in a hippos' fight it means there's no danger involved.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@Brandespadathe video shows otherwise
@@99Gara99 The video shows what I say
He didn't want to kill you or harm you dude, he just wants you to stay out of his business.
😂😂😂😂...bro the cigarette never left the zoo keeper's mouth 😜
🚬🤡 😂😂😂
He almost had his last smoke 😂
That made me laugh lol dude is a legend
I thought I saw that too. Lol
He is the luckiest man to be alive.
True, and the dumbest, lol
早く立てよ！イライラする
100%
Bro kept the cig in his mouth the entire time. LEGEND
OMG! YES!
Whistle
Hippo doesn't like his food tasting like cigarettes
you can tell this hippo has some type of positive thoughts about his keeper. If he didn't he would have bit him in half in a split second. They aren't all just mindless killing machines. They have feelings and form relationships to.
so true
That's not an attack. It's a threat display. The keeper is lucky the hippo likes him enough to give a friendly warning.
Yeah, I believe so too, cause he could have bit him the first round
Right. If the hippo wanted him dead, he'd be dead.
💯💯💯💯💯
So true 👍
Yes, that was not an attack. It was trying to tell him to get out of the vicinity. There was no need to bring a stick, all he had to do was leave the area. Apparently he didn't get the message. How long does it take for someone to just get up and leave, when the hippo is obviously telling him to?
This guy has the balls the size of King Kong, good it was recorded, otherwise his friends at the bar wouldn't believe him.
Зверюга он и есть зверюга берегите себя!
Man tried to intervene in a hippo fight like they’re house cats or something lmao
You’d get your a$$ kicked in a housecat fight too
@@fluffytail6355 I learned that the hard way lol
@@catfeline1530I’m not sure if he was insulting the first post or if he meant it literally. I know you’re right, _house cats_ go hard but not many realise how strong cats actually are.
Id never intervene in a house cat fight lool
I would not intervene on a cat fight
This is what they expect you to do when they yell "Somebody do something"
Unbelievably restrained, reasonable and self-controlling hippo.
What did the keeper really think he was going to do about that situation. That Hippo let you live my guy. Always be grateful.
Such a great point❤
He probably was just thinking he might not survive. I don't think he was being a some kind of smartass. Strange comment.
He was breaking up a fight op. Sorry but that hippo was in the wrong. People intelligence greater than animal intelligence.
@@righthandstep5you don't break up animal fights. These are still wild animal's and will kill you if you intervene. The guy is lucky the hippo didn't kill him. The guy was stupid for trying to stop them from fighting. This is another reason why animals like this shouldn't be in captivity.
Hippo was like "Stay outta HIppo Ish, I let you slide this time mane."
Все животные , должны жить в естественной среде! Хватит уже этих не нужных зоопарков. Просто издевательство , держать их в клетках.
Actually impressed at how much self control it had. It's a if it realized "oh right, this is the dude that feeds me"😮
Yes, but that was close.
Exactly... I see the same thing in my livestock who could kill me, but don't.
Hippos are very smart
@@Emireno😂😂Day made...
Yep. Hippos aren't typically reserved like that. Especially when already provoked. It certainly wasn't playing around. But it also wasn't hellbent. Maybe the lighting changed his awareness...able to recognize the second 'attacker' wasn't in fact a second hippo...which it presumed in the darkened space...hence the initial bite. Plus once it grabbed ahold of the man, it certainly could tell he was dealing with something other than another hippo. Keeper got super lucky.
Can you imagine being a hippo and realizing you’ve been sent to a Chinese zoo? Talk about worst case scenario lol
Если хотел бы, он бы его порвал. А так попугал просто, достали его видимо. Респект бегемоту что проявил самообладание, вот это есть настоящая сила! ❤
The hippo was in a fight full of adrenaline and yet showed enough restraint to not even injure the MUCH smaller human. Hats off to the hippo. I've seen people getting worse injuries from breaking up a chihuahua fight.
?
😂😂😂. Четко и доходчиво😅
😂😂😂😢😂😂😂😂😂
You don't know hippos. The hippo couldn't get a limb into it's mouth that's all and was thinking of the other hippo. With the coast clear it charged again
i feel for this animal, he has shown more empathy than most humans. i love all wildliufe. why do we have to imprision them
That mouth open, his whole life flashed before his eyes! Somebody get him a game of hungry hippos! 😂😂
The hippo didn't want to hurt him, was just telling him to mind his business
a hippo mind reader, are we?
@quirkasaurussaurus2896 No need to read the mind when body language is blatantly obvious. The hippo showed a massive amount of restraint.
@@quirkasaurussaurus2896 Well in a way it's kinda true. When hippos step up to something and open their mouth all wide like that, they're not really attacking yet, they're just doing a threat display.
@@seregill13 fair enough. i was just being snarky, objecting to the anthropomorphizing of the hippo, and the implicit minimizing of the attack.
Терпенья Человеку..💪👍
Old saying: "I'd walk a mile to smoke a camel..." New saying: "I'd crawl 50 feet backwards to not be smoked by a hippo!"
The Hippo did not even want to seriously hurt the man, but wanted him to leave him TF alone💯
The hippo obviously cared for the man he could have killed him many times over but only showed his teeth. I hope they didn't put the hippo down
I saw that too.
There is some truth there. They charge differently depending on their intent.
Yes and if it needed it could have just hired him but didn’t he’s lucky as hell.
This part!! He practiced more self restraint than some people I’ve been around.
Dude didnt drop that cigarette from his mouth tho 😂
That dude walked through the valley of the shadow of death.
He literally stared at the jaws of death
Phlegm splaking all over his face and I bet he was thankful
“Literally” 🥵
I read "Jews". 😭
@@carldrogo9492 😂
The hippo said "TAKE YOUR ISH, AND GET THE HELL OUT" 😂😂😂.
Dude really thought he was the animal whisperer 😂 glad he made it safely. Hope this taught him.
Guy must have put 20 points into his luck stat.
The hippo didn't want to kill him. It just wanted to show him he was angry.
said thing I just said
😮.. did u chat with him about it?
agree, if the hippo wanted him dead, he ain't walking out of there
Plot twist: this hippo intervened between the human and the other hippo.
That man should feature in "I shouldnt be alive" episode
Zookeeper: Ima step
That's a flex, he had no real beef, that was a "mind ur business little man" lol
Yes that was
I hundred percent agree that’s exactly what I was thinking That animal easily could’ve done him in you can tell he didn’t actually want to hurt the guy he just wanted him to back off and stay out of his business they were obviously having an argument and it wasn’t it’s placed intervene and The second charge was like haven’t you gotten out of my yard yet!
Exactly
Little man 😂😂😂
I thought the exact same. If that hippo really wanted him 💀, that man wdv BEEN 💀 😅
The hippo just gave a warning not to intervene in their internal matters. 😂
Legend has it, to this day, the cigarette still hasn't left his mouth....
The hippo didn’t attack. If he did he would be dead. All he did was warn him
For real, that hippo was in a "good mood"
yeah thats still sooo horrifying lmao Just goes to show how menacing they really are when you see the ease at which he was able to throw him around.
Prosta zasada. Nie wpier...aj się w naturę
Woman who sees gorillas fighting: Get the Zoo keeper! Get the Zoo keeper! Zoo keeper who's seen this clip: 👀... 🤫
The way he psyched him with the last charge lol just grabbed the branch
He showed buddy nothing but mercy, he must of really liked him
Have.
True haha
@@seanscanlon9067nice work grammar police, you have demonstrated your superiority 🙄
@@seanscanlon9067Have a day off.
All that and he still managed to keep that cigarette in his mouth 😂😂😂
Hippo: "You need to get the hell up outta here!"
You’re telling me that two full grown hippos were fighting in a small enclosure and someone thought their best course of action would be to physically intervene? 😂 You’re an ant to them!
Actually the size of a hippo to a human is more like a dog to a human. I think you are confuse with a godzilla to a human. Then yes it would be like an ain't to a human. I fixed your comment. No need to thank me.
@@johnrambo1349 A toy dog you mean.
@@johnrambo1349he's talking about the power probably. An average human is nothing in front of that thing.
No, he tried to intervene between the human and hippo…
Smoking a square like he coo 😂
Every animal deserves our love.
Какой красавчик ❤ весь лоснится!❤ надеюсь ему ничего не будет! Работника жалко
"Hippo wasn't playing around" Yes he was, otherwise that guy would be dead.
Literally what I said when I saw that lol. He was playing a whole lot 💀
Right, I was gonna Ng to write the same.
Damn. I commented this, like word for fucking word, before I saw yours. Actually kinda creepy how verbatim it was.
@@BG-mn6di Exactly when Man's legs were in his mouth, he could have LOST them, that water Horse showed EXTREME mercy that's not usual for a water Horse, cause he coulda bit his legs right off and then trampled him into paste!😒
He is lucky that hippo still recognizes him and cares enough about him to give him a warning he could have easily killed him when he had him on the ground right then and there he was deliberately holding himself back but if the zookeeper didn’t leave the enclosure when he did he would have been killed in the second charge it would be a bad idea to enter that enclosure again any time soon and if it where me I would be tending my resignation but still it was his own fault for getting in the middle of a fight between to hippo’s in the first place that’s like getting in the middle of a war between chimpanzee troops just plain suicidal!
Hippo really said “that’s what I thought” 💀
Bro didn't lose his cigarette though.
*Two of the worlds deadliest mammals get in a fight* Zookeeper: i think i can stop this
Arguably a little bit rash.
@@alexanderSydneyOz Nope, that's their job. If they don't want it then don't put hippos into zoos. As soon as they cage them it's up to them to keep them safe. He was leading him outside so they could shut the door between the two fighting animals.
@hotcrazycatladyme168 Stupid way to do it lmao

hope he got a raise :D
“You about to be 501 if you don’t mind your business” - hungry hungry hippo
Inside discussion : Let’s prank Outside conclusion : Plan B 😂
When the worlds deadliest animal has you in its grasp but lets you go, that must be a blessing
Did not know hippos are the most dangerous animal. No way for me to look into that.
Seriously
Zookeeper to his boss: ''Please just send me my last paycheck. I'm outta here!''
The hippo didn't wan to hurt him, it just wanted him to mind his own business
He could have killed the guy instantly and easily, yet he didn't. It was only a warning and discharge of the energy the hippo still had after his fight with the other hippo. That hippo showed remarkable restraint in not hurting the man. Pretty incredible, and so fortunate for the guy.
Exactly 🎯
Fr !!
I think dogs are the deadliest land mammals...
the hippo didnt want to hurt the keeper it was more like a warning over territory or something i think!!!
The hippo has more self control and conscience than most humans; the zookeeper is alive because of the hippo's mercy.
Zookeeper also have self-control. Imagine what happened if he turned back to the hippo and tried to escape. Or do more rapid moves.
Up close hippos are one of the most dangerous animals out there to most other animals. I am surprised that the zoo keeper is still alive.
I imagine they are training for this, some people would fight back these mouth kicking it or so instead of being just on the floor but maybe the hippo saw this as a surrender and a non potentially dangerous being and just let it be
U didnt know hippo
You do not understand how any of this works.
Im not so sure homie was trying to intervene😂. Looked like he was just stuck in that death pit😂
If the hippo wanted him 💀, he would be 💀
Hippo showed mercy. That guy is very lucky to be alive. I’ve spent time around these beasts in Africa always maintaining a safe distance and situational awareness. They are much faster than they seem.
Knows zoo keeper ! Showing him who’s the boss ! 🏃🏾♂️💥🦛
@adrians.7489 it definitely was showing a huge amount of restraint. While watching that I was thinking this hippo is just pissed at the zookeeper for being an interfering nosy body, and it was pressing the point home. Much respect for the hippo!
Especially in water
That hippo knew what was going on. It was just a warning. That guy would be hippo poo otherwise.
Yeah, that hippo showed great restraint. It was a warning, the hippo chose not to kill the keeper. I’m actually gobsmacked that the keeper tried to intervene…did he think his relationship with the hippo would override any of the hippo’s natural instincts or behaviours?
Не надо бить животных, они никогда не нападут первыми, особенно в зоопарке
He got a second chance to be alive god bless this man
Seemed like the hippo knew the zookeeper and didn’t truly want to hurt him.
That's what I was thinking. That Hippo wanted to scare him and make him leave. 🚬😎
@@ieatpeopleandyeah i think it worked😂 I would of shat myself & needed me a diaper!
@@j.jmcquade5278 Just a diaper? I would have needed a whole new set of clothes! 🤣
Yes, but wonder if will be led to sleep forever later
@@walkpassfromherenot usually when it's a situation like this. Believe it or not, but zoos do allow their animals to stay "wild" as possible. Now if it was an unprovoked attack, that would more than likely be different and the hippo would be endangered if euthanasia. Incidents like this are quite common though, as their keepers get into the mentality "this animal is my friend and won't hurt me, even in a full blown fight", so zoos do not allow human stupidity most time determine the life and death of one of their creatures. Phoenix zoo had a black Jaguar that killed multiple handlers, but it was found they poked him with sticks. He lived his life at the zoo despite that.
More impressed at how well he kept his cigarette in his mouth
Legend has it, the zookeeper still has the same cigarette in his mouth to this day...
He didn't bite him when he was on the ground so he did show some restraint. He's really lucky
That’s what I saw too, hippo wasn’t going for him he was whipped up in tough guy mode from fighting the other hippo just made faces at the man like get the f out of here I’m pissed off can’t you see! They will just charge you down and snap ya up if they actually want you.
Yeah, I believe that’s what probably saved his life. Had he been standing up? He would’ve pose more of a threat to the hippo.
He made sure that he wasnt going to drop that cigarette from out of his mouth 😂😂😂😂
sometimes animals showcase more humanity than humans 😅
That hippo had zero intention of hurting that guy. Basically just told him to back off and mind his own damn business
Exactly
how do you know? you asked the hippo?
@@palap9506😂
@@palap9506 Nope. I sensed its mind thru its actions. Easy. You couldn’t? You’ve got much to learn, palap.
And now he’s a hamburger 😂
Zookeeper did well to stay safe. Nice work.
If that hippo wanted to attack him, the man would have never made it out the door. This video is a true testament to the bond the keepers must have with the animals. The hippo was in fight mode, but held back. That's insane.
*THAT'S INCREDIBLE MERCY !!!*
Yeap, i thought the same; seems to me, that moto-moto was more irritaded with his keeper than really agressive; 'cause if he was in death mode, that zookeeper wouldn't had a chance! The way moto-moto yeald at the keeper, when he getted out of the shelter, but did not really attack him, looks like he was screaming something like- get tha f**k out of here,human, this is none of your business!! Ok it was a bit scary, for us to watch, and guess, specially, for the keeper, but i really didn't saw a life menace here; a saw an irritaded animal and a death scared human. Everyone who treats animals knows that one day or another, they may be in a bad mood, but this don't need to be necessarily a menace to your life! I think the way this video was uploaded with this kind of legend just contributes for a histerical missunderstood about animal behavior!
Na he just got lucky. There's a story of a guy who raised a hippo from a young calf and like 6 years later the hippo decided to kill him.
@@silverscar25 There's no way luck is saving you from that, if the hippo wanted him dead it 100% could've bit half his body off right there or just crushed him.
There is no bond there. The hippo attacked the man because he tried to intervene but once he fell down and was not long a challenge he backed off. Notice the hippo charged again when the man stood up and picked up a stick. They often let other hippos go once a fight has been conceded
But they have the cutest little ears 😂😂😂
Woah😮 The tree he was more interested in than the zookeeper but wanted him to back the heck off.
Hippo was like, "I'M WARNING YOU PHILL!"
🤣🤣🤣
“Dave, I’m not fucking AROUND!” 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I am HOLLERING!
This 😂😂😂😂
"HEY LISTEN HEAR BUDDY!! I TOLD YOU TO BACK OFF!"
Какой милый и добрый Бегемотик!!!....
I love hippos I've only seen at the zoo and they are always in the water
Tried to stop a fight like they were toddlers before he was reminded they are hippos! 😭
😂😂😂
Not like he was trying to keep them both safe or anything better to admire his effort then to make fun of it because ik damn sure i wouldn't try to stop it
Dude never let that cigarette fall out his mouth… amazing 🤩
Man’s was not letting that cigarette go for nothn🤣🤣
That was a soft and friendly Hippo. He liked his keeper.
Yes he let him live.
Fr!!! 👀
Facts
Whose a good boy????
I was thinking the same thing. That hippo could've turned him into soup
That hippo 100% spared him
"Hippos are the world's deadliest land mammals" they are dangerous, but I don't think they are the most dangerous
Literally cannot believe that the hippo showed mercy, they are absolutely ruthless! That is one lucky man.

Wrong ! He’s gonna need a change of underwear and a shower .
Le perdonó la vida, literalmente
That's what the hippo told the man and let him go.
Write your resignation letter, buy some powerball tickets.
He's an idiot he would've died. You don't lie there flailing like a helpless damsel, you roll away and run. He was super lucky he didn't end up in its mouth
He was like "mind your own business, i m not going tonrepeat myself"
Zoo keeper who told you that you're capable of stopping a fight between two hippos😂😂😂😅😅
Perfect example of a show of mercy. Mr. Zookeeper -> you ARE a lucky man.
That was a close call
Hippo gave mercy ❤ thanks Mr. Hippo. Sorry you're upset 😢
The hippo was like, bro this dosen't concern you, step away.
It’s stuff like this that makes me think animals are much more self aware and intelligent than we give them credit for.
You copied someone's comment and got more likes 😂
That guy never stepped foot in a zoo again😂
"You're not in my weight class, bub."
That hippo gave him a get out of jail free card
The hippo was just yelling, "this ain't your business" because they're friends it's clear.
