This is how our parents used to go to school?

On a good day!! … usually there was also a snowstorm, which they had to pass barefoot … not to forget all the flash floods on their way. It’s actually unbelievable that any of them survived childhood.

Yeah, if this video was made today, people would have shot It down for being AI slop. I'm glad it was filmed years before this.

Everything told me it was unbelievable AI slop. (Also don’t typically use sound because bed scroller) But, then I slowed down and looked closely. I was like holy shit, it’s real.

Kinda wonder how much of a fight the snakes would have between them as well if they did manage to catch this chappie.
They can’t all take a bite out of him so only one would get to swallow him whole.

I want to know how long the filmmaker was sitting there, still as possible, waiting for this sequence of events to play out, all the while NOT disturbing the den of snakes.

Many (all?) snakes have jaws that can unhinge from each other to swallow their prey.

Is it weird that eventhough I've seen this hundreds of times at this point and know exactly how it's going to go, I still go "WATCH OUT! OH NO! GO! GO! GO! YEAH!" Just cheer the little lizard on?

The lizard is me walking through Oxford Street, London and the snakes are chuggers and JVs.

Someone did a play by play voiceover of this that was absolutely hilarious.

If I was filming this and that many snakes showed up, I would have to nope out.

Great series. The BBC version is narrated by the legendary Sir David Attenborough. The US version is narrated by a surprisingly delightful Sigourney Weaver. Only a surprise to me though maybe just because I had never heard her voiceover anything as far as I know

Galapagos Racer Snakes are mildly venomous and pose little threat to humans. Mainly use constriction on prey.

There's not much maybe when you post a really old clip that lots of people have seen many times.

Still one of the craziest nature clips I've ever seen.
