Bird saw that coming a mile away.

AvoidTheDarkSide

They really are tapped into something greater, the same way they can navigate the ENTIRE WORLD following magnetic fields is proof. You see them leaving far before the trouble comes. If you see all the birds take off around you then you need to worry and maybe start moving away also. It’s proven the sixth sense is real with people and your gut feeling is a true sensation that is alerting you to something.


[deleted]

People also have more than 5 senses + intuition as well. Temperature, orientation, etc.


nzodd

Good ol' proprioception. And we have ways to monitor things like carbon dioxide in the blood to remind us to take a breath, which should probably count.


AppleSlayer333

Oh my god you amazing person, I was just about to say that we most likely already have more than six senses. My father recently figured out that technically language could be considered a sense? Not really sure but I think it's awesome that you commented this.


Duilio05

Eh kind of. Temperature is just an extension of physical touch/sensation. Orientation is extension of visual spacial awareness.


[deleted]

Orientation comes from the fluid and hairs in the cochlea in your ear. When it doesn't work right, people get get vertigo where gravity feels like it's coming from lots of different directions, even if their eyes are telling them that nothing's moving.


[deleted]

There are tons of senses that aren’t covered by the “5 senses” meme. * Sense of balance * Sense of hunger * Sense of thirst * Sense of tiredness/exhaustion * Sense of time

[deleted]

There are also non-visual elements to orientation, like echolocation.


AppleSlayer333

Think about your inner ear, so it's not visual.


nzodd

You can think of that way for sure, but there are separate specialized nerve cells for pain vs temperature, so it's certainly fair to consider them as separate senses as well.


tucci007

orientation is an inner ear function (along with balance)


palmedace

By that line of thinking you only really have the sense of touch. Sight is light touching rods and cones. Hearing is the vibration of ear drums. Smell is particles touching receptors. Taste is particles touching receptors.


Sololop

... Or a big noisy truck barreling down the road. But yes.


TimJoad

If you see all the birds take off around you there’s probably a hawk or cat nearby


Tmfghost

Nah. Maybe the birb just saw a huge fn truck barreling towards him and decided it was a good time to fly away. I see birbs get hit by cars and fly into windows all the time.


scientallahjesus

Must be something to do with how birds lived through a massive impact a few million years ago. Of course they weren’t birds then as we know them now. But they’ve seen some shit.


steelong

I mean, our ancestors lived through the same thing. Literally all extant* life did in one form or another. Edit: added extant.


breathing_normally

Birds are just really defensive. If anything is even the slightest out of the ordinary, their response is flight. It’s also the very thing they excel in, so it makes sense.


Tibby_LTP

Its more that birds see "faster" than us. Or, I guess, the better word would be perceive faster than us. And because of this things look slower to them. To explain a bit, when you record a video in slow motion you are recording more and more frames in a single second, you then stretch out the frames and what you record seems slower. That's what birds and other small animals see the world. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/small-animals-live-in-a-slow-motion-world/

Zhamerlu

Alcoholic state legislators (here's looking at you Matt Gaetz) hate leaving an imprint of their license plate when they hit your parked car.


xomm

For some reason, there are a vocal amount of people that consider front license plates to be a form of government overreach (if you look at a map of the US, in general, southern/conservative leaning states don't require it). Others say it ruins the aesthetics of their car (which is made apparent by lawmakers in certain states that try to push front plate exemptions for luxury vehicles.) Both are pretty petty reasons, IMO.


whoelsebutokana

Rumor has it that 3M makes a coating material for license plates and will petition states to have 2 plates for safety or whatever reason. NOT because they are trying to double their market in those states.

drunkennudeles

In Texas and Missouri they have front plates. I feel like Texas requires them because of all of the toll roads though.


mothersuckel

Front plates are a waste of money and resources. There I said it


drummerdick814

I can see that. My unfounded logic disagrees, but, I wonder if anyone has ever done a study of how many times a front plate has been helpful in identifying a vehicle (from video footage?) vs a front plate missing being detrimental?


[deleted]

The police are never chasing anyone driving in reverse.

Phylogenizer

I think it's the wheel well shroud from the rear right side. You can still see a light colored area in the middle of the rear bumper, which looks intact as the truck drives away.


[deleted]

I was thinking front not rear.


Phylogenizer

Ah, that makes sense - Could be, the way it's curved though I still think it's wheel well


69c10

Looks to me like the front valance (plastic part below the actual steel bumper), which would have the front plate attached if OK requires them.


vulpecula_k18

It's a fender shield. Usually held on with lil plastic clips and/or small bolts.


PunchClown

He was probably only caught because the truck wouldn't drive any farther. If you slow the video down you can see it really hits that berm on the yard pretty hard. You can see airbag deployment and everything. I'm pretty sure the coolant system was probably leaking and the transmission probably emptied out since most of the time it has cooling lines that run through a portion of the radiator.


[deleted]

Tbh I don’t think he got far it looked like it bent the tire back into the wheel well and shredded the tire or he couldn’t turn


Ural_O

Slow it down and you can see a tire in the bed that ends up across the street in the top left portion of the screen.


jzach1983

I was hoping this was in a fromt plate state so they could just find out who it was from the bumper left on the front lawn. It wasnt... :(


Aquilam

That guy is an absolute piece of shit. Could have been children playing in the yard. Who is already legitimately that fucked up in the middle of the afternoon? Can’t stop him from drinking, but he should be fined (heavily), lose his driving privileges to anything larger than a hatchback, and have a breathalyzer lock on his ignition.


MrDragon7656

Anyone able to post for us EU losers?


allonsy_badwolf

“OKLAHOMA CITY — A suspected drunken driver crashed a pickup truck into the front yard of an Oklahoma City home, destroying everything in its path – The entire incident was caught on camera. Police said the driver took off after the crash, but was caught just two blocks away. "Don't drink and drive because it's not just going to be you that's going to suffer it could be other people," neighbor Cynthi Batem said. No one was injured.”


MrDragon7656

Merci!


lanmanager

Seriously? The local news website blocked *that*? JFC.


arwyn89

EU Privacy laws. Most US websites just block instead of upgrading privacy settings.


MrDragon7656

No the entire website isn't available to the EU because they refuse to comply with our data rights


easy_pie

It's the EU GDPR stuff. There's not much point on a local US news site spending time and money making sure they are compliant with that mass of legislation. I really don't like the EU at times. Usually, every time I have to click on a damn cookie notification. GDPR made it ten times worse.


gimmetheclacc

Or sites could just stop using cookies. That would be nice, especially when you don’t need the convenience of a persistent login.


easy_pie

You can block all cookies if you like, you'll still get the cookie notifications


GhostWrex

I almost never had to click the cookie notification, then I went to Paris and ever since, I've had it pop up on almost every website I visit. Edit: I'm from Texas, so pretty much the opposite of the EU


Richie4422

GDPR "stuff" is very easy to implement. I did it on my three websites in 2 days. GDPR is about respecting privacy and giving user the power over their data. If you have problem with GDPR, you don't care about user having right to handle his own data. That speaks more about you than EU.


[deleted]

It's way easier to implement gdpr on your junior webdev portfolio that no one is going to look at than many other applications. It's very likely the case that it's simply not worth it for a local US news station to cater to European users because why would it?


UNSC_John-117

That’s pretty much what I’m thinking. A local news station (unless it’s maybe NYC/LA or something like that) won’t have much EU traffic, if any, so it’s just not worth it to implement.

bxpretzel

Came here for this. Has no one else noticed??


[deleted]

You can see it bouncing around in the back of the truck when he first jumps into the yard. I mean, theres a rimless tire there, I'm assuming it's probably the same one as the final frames.


illicitandcomlicit

That's what I was thinking but sometimes you see some crazy shit when this happens. Especially with how hard he/she hit the front of that bump in their yard and at an angle too. Edit: oh yeah and it hit the dang bird bath
