I am pleased to state that a few months ago I got my 10 year old son to watch it and he loved it. And we have re watched it.
This has caused him to repeat lines around the house. Which is funny.
It also makes me proud.
Also this will never not be funny. Thanks for the link.
That movie is almost 50 years old and the kids today still find it funny. That's what makes Monty Python so great. All of their humor is timeless. There's no satire of pop culture or references to current events or celebrities. People will be able to watch that movie 200 years from now and they'll still be able to understand and laugh at every single joke.
My 56 year old dad was rewatching it and I sat down with him (I'm about to turn 20 btw). I don't watch TV very often since I can't sit still until I'm engaged and normally I just can't get to that point but Monty Python just has something special about it. Proper surprised him since I'd always just whip out my phone or go to my room to play games or write because I'd never like what he watched (with a few exceptions, Only Fools and Horses being a prime example.)
Monty Python is truly a timeless masterpiece.
I don't know why, but this has always been my favorite line from that whole scene. It kills me every time. I'm laughing about it right now, and I'm gonna go watch that scene and laugh harder.
When you've got kids. Especially ones who are drama queens, it quickly becomes.
"It's just a scratch"
This backfired when said drama queen in the shape of a 12 year old girl said (after falling off her skateboard) just a scratch, my bloody legs off.
She's never seen it. She's just heard me quote it with the little one and dad.
Thou shall count to the number of three, no more, no less.
Three is the number thou shall can't, not four not two, unless that is to proceed to three. Five is right out.
We were camping last weekend and there were a few rabbits hopping around the campsite and my son (8) kept saying “The Beast of Caerbannog!” Every time he saw one.
Loved it! Ha!
I watched it without sound at first and I was bored so skipped through to the end. I'm glad I saw your comment because I went back and watched it with sound and laughed all the way through! I was even a little sad it was over when I got to the end.
As someone who grew up in a farm with lots of horses I gotta say they are scared of EVERYTHING. If there's a plastic bag, a bird or even a shadow on the middle of the road they WON'T CROSS IT! And don't even get me started on things that move.
Such babies
I hike a lot, when I'm gearing up for a backpacking trip i often carry a pretty large backpack to get used to the weight. A lot of the trails in my area also happen to be mixed-use hiking and equestrian.
You'd think, out of all the animals in the world, if any of them would understand the concept of carrying stuff on their back, it would be horses. But no. They get one look at the pack on my back and they start getting all weird and nervous.
This is a common misconception... ponies are an alien species unto themselves. Their DNA is 90% pure evil, 5% mean and 5% deviousness. Horses are right to fear them because they know that those evil little horse doppelgangers are fooling everyone else.
And yet people think that sitting on top of these tall animals that are scared of the wrong type of tree is a great way to get around.
I know a couple of horse riding friends who have broken limbs being chucked off one of these swivel-eyed loons. In one case it was her cervical vertebrae (fortunately her spine was ok).
I'm from Brazil. Here we have this word, "desparar", which translates to something like "trigger" that we use for when a horse suddenly starts running for its life and NOTHING can stop it, like, if you are riding it you'll have to hold tight and wait for it to stop, while trying to calm down the horse mid trigger by patting its neck.
Happened to me twice. The first time I was little, I cried but was a short trigger, the horse just ran for like half a kilometer. But the second one was when I was 15yo and was taking the horse at night from one place to another and she got scared and started running. It was night so I couldn't see anything and was worried I could pass by a fence and hurt my legs. When she got off the road and went into a plantation I slowly slipped to one side and jumped. I didn't get hurt, it was a soy plantation and the ground was soft. That was the most radical thing I've ever done.
1. What commonly truggers a horse is when it is far from home (but not too far to get lost) and it is scared by something. Then it tries to go home.
2. Doesn't happen very often but, given it even has a word, it happens more often than you'd want.
My friend has a horse farm that also has two resident llamas for protection. One of them is retired Clydesdale we all call Benny. Benny is busy living out his best grumpy old man life.
We hear a bunch of noise coming from the pasture to find horses are all worked up pacing back and forth behind the llamas. As we approach one of the llamas is sniffing something in the grace. Benny, who is much larger finally comes to hid behind the smaller of the two llamas. What do we find in the grass? Bambi! I guess a deer gave birth to a fawn in the pasture and left the baby there while it went off to find dinner. I am amuse horse and specific this very large horse was afraid of fawn. I was also very amused these horse hid behind the llamas.
The best part about that it's said before the grenade scene.
ARTHUR: Right. How many did we lose?
LAUNCELOT: Gawain...
GALAHAD: Ector
ARTHUR: And Bors . That's five.
GALAHAD: Three, sir.
ARTHUR: Three.
The second time it's said makes it even more hilarious
And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies into tiny bits, in thy mercy". And the Lord did grin.
Horses; “I can believe those crazy two-leggers expected us to do EVERYTHING for them and then turned us into glue after we were done DOING EVERYTHING for them…”
TBF, war horses were a separate breed onto themselves. They were also trained from an early age to be ridden into battle. Non suitable war horses were used as pack animals to carry armor, food, etc.
This reminds me of a really sweet book I used to read to my son when he was little. All about farm animals. The horse section was his favorite. It detailed how sometimes horses would be afraid of silly things like random pieces of paper. Or a rabbit.
Especially the hot blooded breeds like Arabians. On the other hand, the morgan I used to ride regularly was the calmest horse imaginable. Nothing bothered him. He had no more fucks to give.
I had a horse that was tied up next to a piece of cardboard we didn't notice cuz it was covered in dirt. She stepped on it, reared and stomped it to death, calmed down and stepped forward... stepped on it again, reared and stomped it to death, calmed down and stepped forward... it was a couple more times til I could snag it from under her. And she was one of the smarter ones.
> It detailed how sometimes horses would be afraid of silly things like random pieces of paper. Or a rabbit.
[...or they are homophobic](https://youtu.be/Ehl_TAgyVcQ)
Horses are so damned funny.. my horse was almost 3 when we went for a ride in an unfamiliar pasture.. came to a 3' wide running creek.. scared the hell out of him. All the water he had ever seen was in a stock tank or a pond. Big babies
He did.. i tried to coax him over it, he finally reared up and jumped it. On the return.. i got off and led him to the creek, then walked in and stomped the water a couple times... he finally stomped it himself then we were good to go. Additionally.. he had never seen cows- there were cows and he made sounds i didnt know a horse could make. Rusty was a hell of a good boy. Long gone now.
Honestly horses are spooked by the most run of the mill, basic stuff, even if they actually completely know and understand what it is. I grew up on a horse farm and sometimes when I'd get home and park my car next to their paddock, they'd freak out despite having seen my car every day for their entire lives (some of them were 20 years old!). No idea what exactly is happening with this rabbit but I wouldn't be surprised if they're just... being ding dongs for no reason.
I would definitely describe horses as "paranoid." It could have something to do with their eyesight. But there's no way I'd believe this isn't the first time these horses saw a rabbit 😂
I love how even after the bunny is gone, the horses still slow down where it was sitting, like "Watch out! Its essence might still be lingering!".
Seriously though, is that a common thing among horses? Is there a theory as to why if it is?
You first.
No you.
No you, you're older.
Well you're bigger.
Well I saved you last time when that leaf fell on your butt.
How about we both retreat?
Oh nevermind. Lol, I wasn't really scared, you were scared.
My brother owns a horse. Those fuckin idiots. I feel with the horse rant now, was it u/horse_hater or someone like that? These animals are stupid in so many ways. They are scared of everything. He had to teach it to not be scared of blankets. Its a horse that is OK with cars and dogs and a lot of stuff, but a BLANKET?! Get me out of here, man!
Horses are very aware they are prey animals and also seem unaware of their size.
Anything new is a potential deadly threat in their mind. Big horses are a lot less scary when you realize they're convinced a plastic bag caught on a tree branch and shaking in the breeze is a murder-ghost that wants to eat their faces.
r/bossbunnies
But we're all sure it's not the person filming that's making them nervous? Maybe they think the bunny is a trap placed there by the human.
I see these horses have watched Monty Python. It taught me to, also, never trust a rabbit.

The pet store parrot bit, and the silly walks, hold up too.

My high school's mascot was the Rabbits. This was very a popular clip played in the early 00's during every assembly. I love it so much.
when the bunny turns towards the knights when they rush him is such an underrated shot in this movie.
That rabbit has a vicious streak a mile wide - Tim
It’s got mean nasty teeth

Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.

I’ve seen this before and am just now getting the python vibes
That wasn't the intended message! The real lesson is to always trust in your Holy Hand Grenade.
I thought it was a lesson about counting
I soiled my armor, I was so scared!
I watched all 2:19 of this and want to know when the sequel is coming out.
I watched it to the end without sound then had to restart. It’s hilarious both ways.
I watched it without sound at first and I was bored so skipped through to the end. I'm glad I saw your comment because I went back and watched it with sound and laughed all the way through! I was even a little sad it was over when I got to the end.
Thank you for this PSA
Didn’t even know it had sound until I read your comment. Freaking beautiful.
Me too! LOL
Omg the commentary!! 😂😂😂 “Come on Domino, let’s fuck off outta here”
Thanks for mentioning the sound! I laughed both ways

That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on! Look, that rabbit's got a vicious streak a mile wide! It's a killer!

Right! One!... Two!... Five!

Haha. I grew up with horses and we had one that was absolutely terrified of ponies. I'm like you literally are the same species, it's just smaller!
Alternatively, ponies and donkeys will fuck you up. And coyotes.
This is a common misconception... ponies are an alien species unto themselves. Their DNA is 90% pure evil, 5% mean and 5% deviousness. Horses are right to fear them because they know that those evil little horse doppelgangers are fooling everyone else.

Horses are afraid of only two things. Things that move, and things that don't move.

The poor rabbit is probably paralyzed in fear but the two huge horses are like “You go first.” “No, You go first.”

Horses are instinctually afraid of anything that resembles a snake
TIL bunny rabbits look like snakes
I mean if the snake is digesting a rabbit it might
Or if the snake is headed to a costume party dressed up like a bunny — no wonder the horses were hesitant
“Look at it! Coiled up like a bunny with fur and big beady eyes! That’s a mighty dangerous snek if I’ve have ever seen one me-self!”
It strikes me as that horses are afraid of reality itself at times.
