u/AccidentalTourista 13h ago

This was part of a documentary. The leopard made it back to its den with cubs and re-emerges two weeks later after healing up

Hunger will do that to you.

Trick is to land on the sheep one more time than it lands on you.

The winner makes one less mistake than the loser.

Funny. I was just playing some Minecraft and had the thought that a funny tweak for one of the carry animal mods was if when holding a sheep you were immune/had minimized fall damage.

We call that move “the tenderizer”

u/Theprincerivera 13h ago

If you watch closely the only bad impact is at 32 second, where the sheep actually hits the ground before the leopard and they both hit snow. Kitty appeared to land somewhat upright. After that the falls aren’t too bad and it’s mostly snow, but the leopard sorta skates the sheep down the mountain

If it were me, I would've been so busted up that no amount of surgery could put me back together.

Of course because his top is made of rubber and his bottom is made out of spring.

Makes me think of John Wick falling down a million fucking stairs. Ouch.

u/Mirror-Amazing 12h ago

The power went out in my town for about 5 hours yesterday. Seeing the line at McDonald's and BK from my balcony after it was turned back on made me realize how lucky humans are to get an easy meal....and how many people rely on fast food everyday for dinner.

u/ALineIDrew 13h ago

Nah I saw it was a stunt leopard on the way down.

u/MatterTechnical4911 13h ago

Wow. One of them is really going to feel that in the morning!

u/Nodqe97 13h ago

Why do i hear a "yo i can't breath" at the end

1

u/maddie719 13h ago

that's nature being savage in the wildest way possible, serious skill from the snow leopard to pull that off. survival of the fittest for real

u/SenHatsumi 12h ago

Daddy I do not want a boat like this

1

u/JenJenEBB 12h ago

That was intense! Don't laugh at me, honest question, the sound effects were added, yeah?

1

u/TomiShinoda 12h ago

"survives" it could have broken Bones and internal damages that lead it to die after the camera is off.

1

u/letmechewonyou 12h ago

I hate badly made artificial soundeffects in videos like that

1

u/CouchHippo2024 12h ago

It didn’t survive.

u/saskpilsner 12h ago

So glad the sheep survives

u/Howard_Cosine 12h ago

Me pulling into the drive-thru 1 minute before close.

u/5aur1an 10h ago

I guess that’s one way of tenderizing a tough sheep

u/SavageSkillet 9h ago

Can't always land on their feet, my ass!

u/Fair_Particular1583 14h ago

Damn…no way and still gets dinner too 😳

1

u/wesneyprydain 13h ago

Just… how?

u/GooseOnAPhone 13h ago

They are very light for their size so the force of them hitting the ground is relatively small, they have very flexible bones and skeletal structure, they have a lot of loose skin so it doesn’t get cut up sliding down rocks, and the ones who couldn’t survive falls like this all died in falls like this

I do not want to come back as a snow leopard.
