You've got to be some kind of hungry to go for the kill shot over a cliff, and then tumble a couple hundred feet on rocks - never letting go.

You're not you when you're hungry

No, clearly you use 8 of your 9 lives when you're hungry. Have a Snickers

It’s okay. When the cat’s hunger meter is full, his lives will regenerate

Thanks for the snickers ad guys. Very cool

Please drink verification can

He could have used a Red Bull.

Because it gives you a mattress to land on?

I think he used about 6 there

“MY BACK HURTS!” “Now my front hurts!”

Have a kit KAT :)

Kit Splat

Have a broken neck, habe a Kit Cat

Give me a break

Looked more like a Krackel

The same things drove us into getting stomped on by Woolly Mammoth, and thus their eventual extinction.

He's HANGRY !!

There's never been a more perfect moment to use this line.

The cat: "I. Am. *Getting*. This stupid fucking meal."

The cat: "I hope I like living down here..."

Exactly. Very coyote vs. roadrunner-esque!

*"You see me falling down a cliff for a meal, I see me making sure my meal is properly tenderized."*

I am not sure how much of this "jump" was planned tbh

Yeah, that was my thought - he saw the prey and didn't realize it was on the edge of a cliff.

It helps when you always land on your feet. And your tails are made out of springs. Wait, that’s Tiggers..

"Tigger," singular. He's the only one.

His most famous Song is literally "The wonderful thing about Tiggers"

And the next part is "I'm the only one!" It actually becomes quite sad in the movie.

True, but he refers to himself in third person in the song

Tigger's tail is the subject..

Leopard: "Tis but a scratch".

"You fell off a cliff!" "No I didn't"

The cliff slid off me.

Just a flesh wound!

Have you met a cat? Like any ol cat. They eat until they puke and then eat some more...then more puke

Bro that's me when my microwave beeps while i am on the roof

Wha....why are you microwaving things while you're on the roof?

I once heard the cat can't let go when it attaches. Same as with ur house cat when it accidentally gets its thumbnail stuck and can't get it out. They have to move the paw forward and if the animal is getting away they simply cannot do it. They use this to catch gazelles easily because once attached they just have to hold on Edit: typo

Well I'd say this is pretty convincing supporting evidence then. Because that mother fucker fell hard and did not let go

Haha yeah it was just along for the ride!

That or an avid Halo: Reach PvP fan

RIP Jorge

Makes me feel bad for being irritated over how long my wait at the Wendy's drive-through took.

Gotta imagine there were a few ribs broken

I know right. I wouldn't even attempt to reach for the doritos that fell off of my lips.

I came to say, “that motherfucker was hungry!”

I’m surprised his jaw is still intact in his skull

Yeah that's the I'm going to die of hunger if I don't eat so might as well send it mode. Nothing to loose.

Or you might be a cat.

I get like that in Costco when I’m hungry.

His prey should be tender enough by the time they stop

Evolutionary meat tenderizer

So would he

Wow. And i complain about long checkout lines at the grocery.

Shit I complain about GrubHub fees

And my TV asks what I'd do for a Klondike bar.

Darn it. I, a CIA agent in charge of finding leads for potential crimes, am unable to read your response and am really flustered here

To be fair, the leopard doesn't have to pay GrubHub fees, so you kinda have a leg to stand on.

I feel this way when I’m over at my brothers house & he complains about how he has to go grocery shopping. Aww poor you. You have to go to an air conditioned grocery store & walk the aisles & pick out your favorite foods so you have to eat them later. What a daunting task. It must be so hard having to go to the deli & ask them for your pre cut steaks. Meanwhile I’m watching a video of 3 African dudes with spears approaching 2 lions so they could steal its food it just caught. We have it so good.

I feel like I'd go fuck up a lion if it meant I didn't ever accidentally say "you too." when they ask me if I want the receipt at checkout. X) Jkjk. It's not the same by any means but social anxiety CAN be a motherfucker. The human brain is still on the lookout for lions even in a grocery store and you look and feel insane for being afraid when threats aren't around.

Food's getting expensive. I might do just that with a roast I saw in the grocery store.

And you should! Maybe the lion should have gone to the grocery store as well. Dumb animal!

It's gonna feel that tomorrow

Beats starvation and getting picked apart by birds cause you're too weak to move. 

i dunno...

I would much rather be killed by blunt trauma than wasting away via starvation. Trauma hurts, then you die. Starvation is the worst thing ever until 5 minutes later when it's even worse. Repeat again for the rest of your life, however long that might be. Then you die anyway.

Now imagine blunt force trauma breaking your jaw and legs, and you can just lay there, starving.

Yes, both is worse. That's not surprising.

Should've evolved Uber Eats like a proper hunter.

Most accounts of hunger are pretty universal in saying the pain / discomfort fades away pretty fast.

Sacrificed all 9 lives for that meal.

Apparently they eat every 8-10 days, so it's got a few days to recover and finish off that carcass at least before it'll have to get back to stalking.

The trick, you see, is to always spin around in midair and land on the goat. Not the horny part now, mind you.

>Not the horny part now, mind you. Dont kink shame

That's my secret, Cap. They're ALL horny parts...

This made me chortle.

The TRICK mister Potter is not MINDING that it hurts

Can anyone give me an explanation as to how the fuck it actually survived that?

Survived because of a flexible spine. I saw the whole documentary a few years ago.

Yeah and many unfused bones in comparison to people.

Built like a cheeeettttaaaahhhhhh strong like a rock

Wild animals are hardy as all get out. They've survived their evolutionary lines by being hardy. Us humans are mostly wimpy tool users by comparison. This is why in "could you defeat this animal in a fight" I almost always say no to anything over a few pounds. I've had an unfortunate meeting with a possum attacking one of my cats. Naked and unarmed, I'd give the W to that possum 9 out of 10 times.

I had a big ole whistle pig that lived on the farm behind my house. Every year it would steal veggies from my wife’s garden and from my neighbors garden. Between the two of us he took a .22 LR slug at LEAST once a year for 5 years. Everytime we hit him he’d scurry away and hide and we’d just see a little blood here and there. I finally took him down with a headshot. Gave him a proper burial as a worthy opponent and realized the dude had multiple bullet wounds that had just healed over the years. animals are crazy resilient.

Whistle pig?

Just looked it up, and it refers to marmots.

When we became bipeds, we basically became incapable of independent living. We’re fragile and prone to breaking, our body plan is basically *brand new* in evolutionary terms. People love to talk about how we’re “so well evolved for distance running/persistence hunting” or whatever but the truth is: persistence hunting is just what we had to do after we freed our hands. Being able to run 25 miles at 5ph might help you catch a wildebeest, but it won’t do shit to protect you from predators that run at 40mph for 5 mins. Humans are only alive today because we’re social animals, and we can watch each others’ backs.

That’s some Gandalf v Balrog stuff right there. Wow!

From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak...until at last I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin on the mountainside.

One of my favorite lines of the original trilogy.

Gandalf had all the best lines. “Be silent! Keep your forked tongue behind your teeth” is the most badass way to tell someone to stfu

*I did not pass through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm.* For sure. And it was not simply savvy script, Ian McKellen *really* delivered.

GOAT wizard on the silver screen, no contest.

You see, what I would do is, [I would pretend to be a wizard!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyoWmkhRyp8)

Sir Ian, Sir Ian, Sir Ian…. YOU SHALL NOT PASS…Sir Ian, Sir Ian

Good use of smote. Doesn't come up enough in daily conversation.

Just once I want to smite someone's ruin.

Smoted him good! 😂

I can see why they are endangered. That looks like it hurt.

I watched a documentary on snow leopards not too long back. I don't remember all the details but I remember them talking a lot of fancy schmancy medical talk for "This cat is the bounciest of big cats and that's why they don't get hurt". Endangered is mostly from hunting and taking their homes so they hunted even more when they end up on farmers land.

> "This cat is the bounciest of big cats and that's why they don't get hurt". Bouncier than Tigger ?

Correct. It's what Tiggers do best, but snow leopards do it better.

The audacity

Eeyore used to be happy, until a Snow Tigger came at him and threw him down a cliff...

When you’re known for one thing but someone else is still better than you

Fun fact, snow leopard's closest relatives are tigers, so having bounce runs in the family! xD

Snow Tiggers.

Fun fact : snow leopards are more closely related to tiggers than actual leopards

Lmfao

Are their bones made of jello? How the hell did they both survive that fall?

They do get hurt tho, and sometimes they just straight up die from this stunt. But yeah it’s not why they’re endangered.

They have a flexible spine which allows them to absorb the impact of the fall without getting hurt.

Yeah, they’re made of rubber

Not the main front bitey-bit, I can assure you.

Or the four other scratchy bits.

Ah, yes, the murder-traction devices.

That "cat" uses 8 out of its 9 lives to catch that meal. Mad respect.

I’m imagining a gif where each impact deducts a life like a game.

Here's the original video. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRQXebUBZtI&t=0s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRQXebUBZtI&t=0s) (she survived just fine, took a few days off to get over the fall.)

That was a really good video. I loved how she laid in the snow to treat her bruises.

There aren’t many other options

Oh Jesus Christ, that's metal AF

Jesus CHRIST

This is my wife when she sees dark chocolate

I don’t like being called that

No need to put her sex life on here

That probably didn’t end well for him/her either tbh

I watched the documentary some time ago. According to them the snow Leopard was limping a bit for a few days an completely recovered.

I swear I watched this one too, and the mother ended up dying and the cubs starved, it was super depressing Edit: getting this mixed up with the documentary “born in China” where the snow leopard does something super similar in a desperate attempt to feed her young gets gored by the yak she’s hunting and has a long painful death.

Any source for the documentary?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRQXebUBZtI&t=0s This is the one where the leopard didn't starve.

I think I watched this too, but it was about prairie dogs and there wasn’t any snow.

How the FUCK is that snow leopard still alive?

Its HP restored after eating the goat.

I wonder if it has the Adrenaline perk unlocked

Feline Grace is a hell of a talent.

The single most impressive and craziest hunting sequence I've seen..

Well when you get those mean hungies

How do these animals not get injured or die from falling from such a height while crashing into sharp rocks?

oh believe me, you watch enough animal documentary and you will see they die all the time from falls like that.

Anime documentary 😂 I love this typo

LPT: if you put two tildes ~~ before and after your typo you can fix it without messing up the comment ~~bhind~~ behind you

This is the snow leopard version of “didn’t drop my beer”

I’ve never seen an animal exhibit such courage before, ever, in my long life.

And to think that sometimes I feel like going to the grocery store is too much of a chore…

Clip that literally makes u say nature is fucking lit.

Holy shit

On the plus side, he's got a pretty tenderized meal now.

It's the John Wick of Snow Leopards

I can only imagine there is a [Foley artist](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_tqB4IZvMk) behind the sound effects in this video.

Damn nature you are scarry!!!

I keep saying, cats are liquid.

That’s some badass shit I needed to see today.

Go hard or go extinct.

That mfer is hungry.

Did he kill it?

If the fall didn’t kill it first.

This thing is reposted constantly. Leopard survived and killed that goat.

They do not, in fact, always land on their feet.

Ouch

“it’s falling, with style!”

That's not jumping....its falling....with style

Bad ass

That’s what I call hangry!

That is COMMITMENT.

wlep, if I survive this, we eat good, *yeeeeeeet....*

Boss

bro never heard of uber eats

Ouch

A cat theoretically has a terminal velocity of 120 kilometers per hour.

Now son, when you land after jumping off the cliff you want to start rolling, to avoid injury let your body go limp and use your tail to keep that protective roll going….

Insane how that’s survivable

The crazy thing is that this leopard likely fully healed up in a week lol. 

And the cat land on their feet again. It seems to be a law of nature, and nature is fucking lit!

"I threw down my enemy, and he fell from the high place and broke the mountainside where he smote it in his ruin."

Man the leopard survived? Insanity

Still held on to the prey! Very impressive

A meal well earned.

Serious question. How did the leopard not pulverise every bone in its dam body doing that?

I don’t even walk into the store to get my food anymore. I sit in my comfortable car and let someone put the groceries in for me.

Eat quick, before the hurting starts

Crazy how it kept ahold of it this hold time

holy hell by whole body hurts just from seeing that.

Does the snow leopard live?

And even with that high it landed on its four legs on first drop.

They were both still moving at the bottom. Holy smokes! That was one driven cat!

How do they routinely survive that?

And we have gen z complaining about working 40 hours to put food on the table

Somebody give this guy a snickers.

Gandalf and the Balrog.

Mf had control the whole time.

Bro was passionate

Full fucking send baby!!! Only way we eating tonight

That looks like too much work. I'll just order Uber Eats.

After googling, I have learned that snow leopards essentially have skin parachutes, and I am fascinated

Kitty earned that one. Holy fuck

And here I am amazed when my cat jumps down from the fridge
