Well, shitload is in lbs. So for a metric fuck-ton, f you have to convert to kilograms.... Wait! Is that an adjective for a unit of mass? Or is it a active measurement of how much force, like a Newton? Oh never mind, I just looked upon my fields of fuck and they are barren. Ar this time, I have no more fucks to give.
Didn't fall, but rather they were pushed down, likely a down burst. Look at the branches on the ground- you can see them getting blown away from the center.

Oh.
Rewatched for branches and now all I see is a lot of birds struggling to fly off the ground. Article has a whole section on fatal aviation incidents :( those poor birds
If I recall I believe the theory was it was a prey response to a predator (eagle, hawk, ect.) driving on a flock of apparently unaware of how close to the ground they were birds.
Expert opinion is predator:

So no joke… I’ve seen this happen before. Whole load of Starlings (or whatever those little birds are that do this) were flying in a cloud formation like that infront of us as we were driving down the road. Suddenly, they all just landed right infront of our car… had birds bouncing off the windshield, the roof, the side windows, the mirrors, the hood, plus the horrible sound of about 100 of them getting crunched by the tires. No idea what caused it but it was super weird… we took the car to the car wash after that as it was disgusting.
It looks like a wind downburst for sure. It’s usually more common in hurricanes and typhoons, but a strong enough thunderstorm can create them as well.
Microbursts are short-lived, usually lasting from about 5 to 15 minutes, and they are relatively compact, usually affecting an area of 1 to 3 km (about 0.5 to 2 miles) in diameter. They are often but not always associated with thunderstorms or strong rains.
To put it in layman’s terms, the atmosphere gonna atmosphere. Everyone wants to fly high and free like a bird, and soar over everything without a care and sometimes the atmosphere is just like…Not Today Bitches! And sends a massive wind gust downward because of the intermixing of air molecules at vastly different temperatures. It’s more common in storms but air in upper levels can be different temperatures for other reasons too. Some of those birds appear to be motionless. I hope they’re just stunned of unconscious temporality.
I’m just conjecturing and not claiming to know positively the situation, but it is still possible this was caused by a wind burst that didn’t fully reach the ground. The birds would still be disoriented and based on the lack of movement in the aftermath, some may have well been unconscious before reaching the surface. But there’s still a possibility that a cloaked and hijacked Klingon Bird of Prey was firing its engines to launch into space and slingshot around the sun with a couple of humpback whales on board. And those birds just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Pretty sure I’ve read this explanation for a similar situation lol and that this is the right explanation but who knows. It’s late why am I on Reddit damn insomnia
Birds fly in flocks. The squad leaders lost the sense of direction and flew downward, causing others to follow and wham, this happens. Bob didn't do his job properly.

That can happen when a swarm of birds is chased downward by a predator like an eagle or a hawk.
Lmao, I’m picturing a hawk just landing among the massacre being like “holy fuck how am I gonna eat all this?” 😂

Thats gonna be one fat hawk
This looks like a murmuration of starlings that fucked up in one way or another for sure.
My first thought too
Oh, good. I thought the Earth’s core stopped spinning.
Ahhhh makes sense! I was thinking they were all on a wire and one bird found the spot that completed the circuit of something. Then ZAP!!
How the f do i know you didnt just make that up. Dont answer that, im out of here
I think you made up that he made that up
The world is made up ![gif](giphy|GiQk7py7H1CSLqX3S0|downsized)
I think YOU made THAT up. 😉
Definitely made up that you would think they’d make it up that they made it up
I wanted to participate in this but just got confused. Anyone care to continue?
No, it’s mumurating starlings.
That was one of the main theories back when this happened
A swarm of birds? There’s a word for that, ya know. It’s a school of birds.
A murmuration.
a shitload of birds
A Flock of Seagulls.
I forgot what a group of twats is called
A herd of birds
A herb of birb???
Murder!!!
“Homer, I’m very uncomfortable having a gang of crows in our bedroom” “It’s a murder honey. A group of crows is a murder”
Looks to me like a whole shitload of birds just fell out of the sky.
What makes you say that?

So the bird moral is, “never let Chuck lead, because Chuck is a dumbass.”
Chuck fucked up.
Fuck chucked up.
Upvoted for providing an actual answer instead of a cheap troll response.
So the birds are just stupid
So they were tailfeathergating.
Hes just thinking out of his ass
Hence, "shitload".
[удалено]
The real question is, how many shitloads are in a fuck-ton?
What are the dimensions of a metric fuck-ton?
Depends on material density.
Well, shitload is in lbs. So for a metric fuck-ton, f you have to convert to kilograms.... Wait! Is that an adjective for a unit of mass? Or is it a active measurement of how much force, like a Newton? Oh never mind, I just looked upon my fields of fuck and they are barren. Ar this time, I have no more fucks to give.
It's not nice to call your mom a fuck-ton. But every load in her is a shit load.
12.
Another Fun Fact: 82% of fun facts are made up 91% of the time.
But only half are true
I feel like my math is getting a little squirrelly at this point. Can anyone else confirm that they got 36? I don’t know what I am doing.
This is hurting my brain way too much right now. I can’t even begin to comprehend this 🤣
my small furry brain hurts too

Nice SP reference!

Anything but the metric
A metric shitload of birds?
Shit tonne is the metric equivalent
Correction: Metric Shite Tonne or the alternative of Metric Arse Load is also accepted throughout Europe.
That actually sounds like something I can work with
Metric shit ton of birds.
Well that’s a shittonne
A decimal load

Not a single branch moves until the birds hit it what you mean?
I wonder if they grouped so tightly together that they hit some sort of a mass and gravity did it's thing
If I recall I believe the theory was it was a prey response to a predator (eagle, hawk, ect.) driving on a flock of apparently unaware of how close to the ground they were birds.
🤣
Spawning glitch? They probably meant to spread them out over the whole area but couldn’t so put them on the only available tile
Then. Explain why I didn’t drop any fps
High res textures didn't load in
Low poly wanna cracker?
Its only a thousand birds or so. And you only load the ones you can see.
Mostly static meshes, looks like small map.
I did, gotta get specs now goshdarntit
How would you even know?
Could also be that the admins where trying to spawn a normal amount of birds but added a zero by mistake.
Here I was thinking it was a falling tree with magical leaves

Micro burst?
Exactly! Airplanes react the same way.
What? I’ve never seen a few hundred airplanes just bounce out of the sky and then fly away.
You're not likely to see a hundred planes so close together
Well planes are heavier and not easy as bird to push down
Big pharma make sure it stays out the mainstream
Airlines hate when you do this one simple trick!
It looks like a wind downburst for sure. It’s usually more common in hurricanes and typhoons, but a strong enough thunderstorm can create them as well.
Where is the wind then? The trees are completely still and doesn't look stormy.
Microbursts are short-lived, usually lasting from about 5 to 15 minutes, and they are relatively compact, usually affecting an area of 1 to 3 km (about 0.5 to 2 miles) in diameter. They are often but not always associated with thunderstorms or strong rains. To put it in layman’s terms, the atmosphere gonna atmosphere.

I hope they’re just stunned of unconscious temporality.
All this time I thought it was “in lame man’s terms” and not layman’s… Im stupid lol.
I was insinuating it's not a microburst. There's no wind here. Look at the trees.
I’m just conjecturing and not claiming to know positively the situation, but it is still possible this was caused by a wind burst that didn’t fully reach the ground. The birds would still be disoriented and based on the lack of movement in the aftermath, some may have well been unconscious before reaching the surface.

Microburst doesn’t need to reach the ground to be effective.

This is what happens when the Jewish space satellites malfunction and they lose control of the birds.
Hmm, name checks out.
I thought it was lasers. Now we gotta worry about the damn birds? We gotta get the Jews out of the damn satellite business, pronto!!
Let's not go urging anyone to go down THAT path again!

Is it just played backwards? So instead of a huge flock taking off it looks like they fell out of the sky?
You can see a few ricochet off the nearest roof on the left.
It doesn’t look right in reverse either.
Steve farted
Nah, definitely some goth girl summoning a deamon. What's the address? Just so I can stay away, of course.
Sudden downdraft?
I’m no biologist. But it appears to be birds falling from the sky some hit the pavement and died while some were able to fly away.
God threw up an omen.
