Cyclists chased by an ostrich. The funniest thing you'll see today
We came down to South Africa for the Cape Argus Tour. It is the biggest cycling event in the world, probably.
On Friday, to stretch out the legs we went on pre-race ride [~130km why not?] to the Cape of Good Hope [I love this name!]. The road by the ocean side was quiet and a lille deserted.
Suddenly, I spotted a white ostrich on my left, then this beast jumped on the road from the right and started chasing my friends! It was a little scary at first, but then I thought I gonna fell of my bike from laughter. The ostrich didn't have any problem to keep up at 50km/h and apparently they do 70km/h with no sweat.
Luckily the creature decided to leave us alone, as we were running out of road. The Cape of Good hope is a dead end way.
My guess he wanted to show off in front of his girlfriend, i bet she was very impressed!

Imagine being the people at the side of the road at the end and just seeing an ostrich chasing two bikers being followed by a cameraman
Quite a show, uh?
Cartoon written all over
gzwerpjgbf imagine the ostrich change directions for them and they can’t get to their car fast enough
I was thinking just that 😃 must be a good day ;-)
Lol! Things you'll never expect to see! They are probably still laughing...
"Why are you running?" "WHY ARE YOU RUNNING?"
EEEEAAHHHaAaaAAH
Just no
🤣🤣🤣🤣
There, one like to spoil that perfect 444 (͡°‿ ͡°).
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ostrich: "Hey man, I just wanted to let you know that there´s a guy following you with a camera!"
ostrich: we've been- trying- to reach you about you cars- extended warranty.
😂😂😂😂
very good one
Another proof that the cameraman never dies. That Ostrich straight up skipped him and went after the cyclists.
😆 🤣 😂 💯
🤣🤣🤣🤣
(As long as we ignore the fact that they're always replacing cameramen after every horror/disaster movie.) That Ostrich was merely trying to return the guy's wallet.
I am always waiting for the boring “cameraman never dies comment” on all videos now. 😔

Ostrich’s side of the story: Today I found a wide, long, flat and smooth surface to practice sprinting, but saw some strange four legged animals on some weird things going as fast as I was. These are so interesting creatures, I wonder what they’re up to…
Four legged?
@@myutube5882The ostrich doesn’t know what arms are
Giant ostriches are extremely fast. They can run continuously at speeds greater than 30-35 mph. Top speed exceeds 40 mph. He wasn't chasing, he was joining in. If he wanted to catch those cyclists, he easily could have.
Yea it looked like he was just running with them. Ive had horses do that. That was pretty cool!
sure, guy on youtube.
the closest experience to being chased by a dinosaur
technically they were since birds are considered avian dinosaurs
Still think being chased by an alligator would be way closer tho especially since those fuckers are fast

Nobody's going to believe them.

Yeah, I don't even think it has hit top speed here.
How long can It maintain it it's where it's at.
We are so lucky that humans have bikes and ostriches don't.

One time when I was a teenager I rode my bicycle down a long private road near my house. On my way back home there was a group of 2-3 ladies riding horses in the road ahead of me. I figured if went by slow they wouldn't hear me coming for a while and might think I was eavesdropping on their conversation once they did realize I was there. So I decided to just book it as fast as I could go and figured at least they'd hear me coming and know that I wasn't trying to listen to their conversation. Turns out that was a bad idea- they didn't hear me coming at all until I went by them all of a sudden. The horses got startled and I think they bucked a little, but fortunately nobody fell off. The ladies immediately started cursing at me and pursuing after me on their horses. I had a ton of momentum built up from beforehand (I was probably going about 25 mph or so), so I was pretty far ahead of them once they reallized what happened, but they quickly started closing in me. All I can remember is being scared for my life on my bicycle on this long dirt road, peddling as fast as I could to try to get away from these gals on their horses cussing and swearing at me as I peddled harder and faster. At one point one of the horses was directly behind my head. I didn't literally feel it breathing on my neck, but I could hear it right behind my left shoulder. After that brief but very scary moment, the horses gradually got further behind me again, as I think they gave up chasing me, reallizing that if they caught me the horses would probably knock me off my bike and trample over me. I did try to apologize to them as I was speeding away, but understandably I had to save my breath mostly for peddling. That was a massive adrenaline rush. I never went down that private road on my bicycle ever again!
What a wonderful story… I’ve got to get out more, I’m missing all this good stuff!

My family was raising a baby emu when I was little. That thing grew up ridiculously fast. Went from sitting in your hand to like 3 feet tall in a matter of a couple months it seems. Anyway, at around that age (3 feet tall) my Mom took me and my brother to an empty state park with the Emu. We went to the empty trailor lots grid, and rode bikes around weaving around wherever we wanted, and the emu was chasing us all around. It was so much fun. Then, when the emu was big enough to stay confined to the emu enclosure, we gave the emu back to grandma and didn't see them for a year or so. By that point, it was full grown and hated everybody. LOL! BTW, pro-tip. Never look into an emu's big ol' billiard-ball eyes. Or do... but realize that if you do, the emu WILL try to peck your eyes out. You think you're having a nice friendly moment looking into their big glossy eyes, and they lunge at you.
What is it with certain birds? I don’t have that cool of a story, but my aunt had chickens once, including a rooster named Robin Hood. He was the meanest animal I’ve met. I and my cousins used to literally play “chicken” with him: rush into his yard and run away screaming at the top of our lungs. Once he cornered and almost attacked my 4 year old sister. I grabbed her and RAN for our lives. I used to ask my aunt to have us for dinner whenever Robin Hood would be the main course. Unfortunately, a coyote ravaged the coop and ol’ Robin died a glorious warrior’s death, defending his hens. Still mad to this day that I didn’t get a bite.

This made me realise what an invention bicycle is. Human with no external energy just by using a mechanical marvel can outrun an ostrich
"Home-Feather" ain't playin'. They're doing ~25 mph for 80 seconds. That's the better part of a 2 minute MILE. And the bird is catching up... Respect.
Probably the closest thing to getting chased by a velociraptor we could ever experience.
brilliant wish it caught them and gouged there cyclists durian rider eyes out srs
I think I would be cycling for my life. These birds scare me.
A Velociraptor is a lot smaller than an ostrich.
Eh. Velociraptors were about the size of a turkey. You surely mean UtahRaptor?
Pinebro true they basically tripled the size of velociraptors in all jurassic parks to make them look more bad ass

Actually you may be right. It seems like it might be domesticated to an extent. The ostrich does not exhibit any signs of discomfort, nor does it seem threatened. It’s probably just having fun. And has probably been fed by human hands a few times, lol.
I felt like I was watching a scene from Jurassic Park! You were right about it being the funniest clip of the day! Thank You!

This comment matches with your profile picture.
I was at a wild animal park in Missouri. Got out of the car for a better view, ostrich gave me a look and started coming my way... I jumped right back in the car with the quickness! The llamas were very smart. They would run in front of your vehicle and stop in an attempt to coerce you to throw food out the window (that you could buy at the entrance). Bottom line, I'm avoiding an ostrich altercation if at all possible. The look a bit goofy, but they are big and can be very aggressive.
I'm amazed at how fast it runs 😮

FACTS!
This is the closest we can get to real-life Jurassic Park.
We can technically tweak birds such as this giant bird for their well-devloped claws and digits on their wings and teeth as well as longer tails, though that is way too expensive and needs a lot of funds and research. And only for entertainment purposes.
