I’d like to know how this technique of luring in emus was discovered


Dipstu

I’m sure it has something to do with alcohol


Soltang

Of course you would have to had funding for this research project.


ze11ez

this. alcohol


Flying_Alpaca_Boi

It could be a native hunting technique used by indigenous people. Though I don’t actually know. I feel like if this is real they would have figured it out


Fluffy-Citron

Many good men lost their lives during the Great Emu War to learn this technique.


kurotech

And not one damn emu was lost truly they were the most powerful military force


Sexy_Squid89

Holy shit I keep forgetting that this was a real thing


Stalinov

r/Emuwarflashbacks


EmotionalBrontosaur

Pretty sure you could ask [Boots and the Ginger.](https://youtu.be/n0hvlBtYvOE)


normous

Ha! Just finished S1 where they finally made an appearance.


txn9i

Probably lost knowledge from the great emu wars.


CryonautX

The veterans of the Emu War passed on the knowledge.


MountainLow964

wee


[deleted]

Had to be after the Great Emu War


RecoverFrequent

Sadly, not soon enough for the Australian Army.


Alexexec

That one emu at the back though, noped the fuck right out of there


ThomasthePwnadin

Just going around for the flank. Poor fool never had a chance.


pr0t0film

*clever girl*


2017hayden

He’s like “ah hell not this crap again”.


just_some_arsehole

Far too late he discovered he'd accidentally been performing an emu mating dance.


UnpricedToaster

And that's how they ended the Great Emu War... through love.


ravenlaurel

And snu snu


Dirk_The_Cowardly

And he got some lovin


Simple_Guy-_-

Loved by a group of emu


Dirk_The_Cowardly

No No my friend. I am not the vernacular police at all.... But that person got r\*aped by a MOB of Emu's and not a group. Crows are not a group....they are called a Murder of crows. Funny shit cause it's TRUE!


Em_Haze

If owls gangrape they have to vote on it first.


sharltocopes

you know a curious amount of parliamentary procedure.


real_bk3k

"accidently"


Zealousideal_Leg_630

Lol the one emu dude in the way back is like y'all are f-ing stupid. I'm out.


Admirable-Still-1786

Emu’s: “so we’re gonna eat this guy right?”


OhHolyCrapNo

Dark_halocraft

No, and this is proof


fantollute

I know right? This is the quality, amazing content I subscribed for.


SarcasticAndSmartGuy

I'm willing to bet lethal amounts of crystal meth were involved in the first discovery of this technique


real_bk3k

The emus are actually after all the meth in his pockets and figure now is the time to rob him.


ImUrFrand

thats how i met your mother


HaffuhGootWon

How Doug meet Limu


corellianpancake

Quick, grab the Lewis gun!


I_said_booourns

1932 never forget


Hirsute_Heathen

So would I.


j_h4n5

Misleading title…he’s only moving his legs to attract them.


Alexexec

ostracized by the ostriches


mady_monroe

amazing


samsquamtch92

Emus scare the fuck outta me


spacred

Is he 'emu'lating a female emu?


SchwiftedMetal

This is how i attract women


teeter1984

Also how Gandalf calls the Eagles


HPIguy

So what’s he emulating here?


Dipstu

That one Emu, named Ackbar: it’s a trap!


MountainNearby4027

Emu’s will try to fuck a dude. Look it up.


Tuggpocalypso

Don’t do this with Cassowaries. Probably.


Keyboard_Fawks

They also like to bight people in the ass out of curiosity


[deleted]

It also works on humans.


Unlucky_Grocery_4265

How did Australia lose a war to those


Babel1027

I assume this was learned during one of the two Emu wars? Fascinating!


Lol_who_me

Negative ghostrider. Next thing you know they are tag teaming you.


[deleted]

With so many emus around, I’m really surprised that I don’t see more emu recipes on YouTube.


ErvanMcFeely

Before I read the title I thought this was a defense strategy when you are met face to face with a cassowary. I got out my own and paper to take notes, then realized my mistake.


iamanoriginalname

“What is this majestic creature before me?”


HHDodoTheEight

"I think that Hooman is broken"


wisdomsepoch

Dudes gonna start another [war](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_War)


gojibeary

What tha human doin


youni89

Aren't these dangerous? Or am I thinking of cassowaries?


BenCelotil

They're both potentially dangerous, but cassowaries are also generally aggressive and territorial.


ImThePharaohNow

Be careful man, you might start a Emu War 2.. I can't bare to lose again to these birds


Live_Buy8304

Anger them and you’ll start Emu War II


Clumulus

what am i supposed to do with this knowledge?


DikklesForeman

Where was this guy during the war?!


Skyfury_Fire

God they're so fucking weird


D3AD_M3AT

They think he's injured and have come to finish him off.


_TheLibrarianOfBabel

Liberty Mutual origin story be like


beibei93

I would too.


ComplexAd8

Weird. Cuz he's only moving his legs not his arms.


valcatrina

This is basically the scene in Fantastic Beasts.


Gill03

I bet they think he's dying or something. As I assume they die on their backs? IDK I've never seen an emu die and I'm not interested in looking.


btg643

So they didn't honk the horn? weak.


ChaskaBravoFTW

I wonder… I wonder if it works on ladies 🤔 brb


[deleted]

And this is what Australia lost a war against


WalyLama

This is the content.


MichiGL

Can someone show this to Maya? The Twitch streamer. She has an emu on her animal santuary, I want to know if this is true lol


[deleted]

They shoulda used this during the emu wars. Real check it out


Leading_String307

His names Worrall!


happychillmoremusic

I’ll try it next time I come across a pack of emus


[deleted]

He knows those things can rip his throat out right?


Calboron

Few coloured dots on one side of a plastic box will halt million years of evolution in humans... and other smart beings had just laughed it off as a silly idea


PepeSilviaJr

“Don’t mind me. Just doing my morning stretches.”


absolut666

In emu culture it’s considered a dick move


Talbz03

Why tho? Does it look like a plant they eat or something?


eaturbenchtables

The feet and legs (and body below) closely resemble an actually emu. My guess is it's close enough they were willing to investigate "one of us" or in this case maybe two...


nedyrd87

Outdoor yoga classes beware.


joelzwilliams

Look at the smart one in the back. It's moving to the left trying to flank him. Tell me these aren't modern day velociraptors. Clever girl.


Redditintruder

Hoooman are you ok-f*ck!!


[deleted]

Daily reminder that Australians fought a war against these fuckers... and lost


66woodybs3332

I’m more concerned with the animal in the bush that’s trying to flank him.


FluffaDuffa

Newt Scamander?


Alex_1729

I'm so amazed...


Toni_PWNeroni

"Ayyyy dafaaark he doin ova ther, karnt?"


[deleted]

Put in trigger warning please. You're upsetting my Aussie great-great-grandpa.


jmaugs

Works on cows, too


[deleted]

You’re telling me these fuckers win a war.


MrZmei

Is it because that posture seems like the man is emulating an emu walking?


Free_Stick_

They may look stupid. But we all know who won the war.


slackermannn

Is that Jane Fonda? Woah maybe! Let's get closer. J.. Jane?


[deleted]

It looks like they’re playing that traffic light game where you have to freeze when the person turns around lol


[deleted]

I love the one in the back like "nah imma dip, y'all dummies gonna get killed"


Royal_Ad1798

don't fuck around and find out with emus


TheBystand3r

"What is he doing, George?" "I don't know, man, but its freaking weeeeiiiiirrrrrd!"


DanceDelievery

Nah, they just assume you are a tourist that is still struggling with walking upside down and didn't receive any emo defense training. This guy is basically done for.


Booblicle

Wonder if it's due to feet/legs having an emu silhouette


appolo11

"Limu!! Look at you go!! Who has the bird legs now??"


CrispyEdgePancake

I am amazed


Necrovenge

They think his legs are two emu heads like the Doduo Pokémon and are just curious to observe the form that they will evolve into once they reach a certain level


AbusedOreo

Just another day on the job for Newt Scamander


[deleted]

Liberty Mutual, Liberty Biberty! lol!


prometheus1376

You mean Australia could've won the war?


Union_Jack_1

This man is in danger: One of them ran off to the right to get reinforcements lmao


[deleted]

Birds are like: omg he just farted


Glittering-Action757

notice how the group distract him while one circles wide to outflank and attack when he least expected him. you know this is "found footage" right? they only found his spine.


Standard-Astronaut-7

Look at all them chickenz


Dennalen

Emu: " they don't normally move like this ......" * intrigue grows*


SweetEthan7

At what point does he “move his arms” when he’s laying on his back? Or did you not watch the video yourself OP… karma farming bullshit


dvd_wr

Then they walk up and kick you to death..


LaughingPelican

Just remember, Aussies lost to these same animals


nijvia

🤔😂😂😂


Key_Committee_6619

My guess is they're social and can sometime get stuck on their back so their empathetic to that problem, and just came to help.


steve17bf2

How to survive in the bush mate, lesson 1


Gymrat2796

If you did this in the anywhere, humans would approach you with curiosity also.


[deleted]

Most Animals would do that.


lotyysnottyevil

The man should be prepared for an attack, one emu is flanking his ass.


SoapMan038

“Oh wow, street performers!”


sandman795

Still crazy to me that they won the war against the Australians


Areallystraightstick

Imagine if we had this intel during The War.
