What people don't know is the camel is leasing the apartment.

[–]NancyGracesTesticles 602 points603 points ago

Well, it's not like you could lease it to a woman. That would be insane.

[–]VintageRuins 122 points123 points ago

Everyone go home. Show's over.

[–]ericelectrik 56 points57 points ago

Plot twist: the camel was female.

[–]Ausfaller 5 points6 points ago

That camel is an oil baron, he probably owns the whole complex/tenement.

[–]NYCMax 138 points139 points ago

It's like Jersey Shore, every time you look up at a balcony, four camel toes pop up.

Obviously, when they built the building they didn’t want to disturb the levitating camel.

Yea. Where do you expect me to keep my house camel?

[–]RUSTLES_YOUR_JIMMIES 207 points208 points ago

Dammit. I wanted to be the prick to point that out.

[–]Sugar15gCream60g 21 points22 points ago

Old Bedouin Proverb: "Don't let a camel stick its nose into your tent apartment because, if you do, you get the whole camel."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel%27s_nose

The camel's nose is a metaphor for a situation where permitting some small, seemingly innocuous act will open the door for larger, clearly undesirable actions.

[–]FerretHydrocodone 35 points36 points ago

It seems the owner of the camel doesn't want it to be stollen so when he's off work he keeps it on his balcony?

I'd be interested to see how he gets it up and down the stairs because I assume there's no elevator.

[–]Lord_Bumberchute 73 points74 points ago

It probably walks.

[–]JulezM -1 points0 points ago

Interesting question though. Cows can't walk down stairs cuz their knees can't bend that way. Wonder if the same is true for camels.

[–]dwightmoody 21 points22 points ago

Cows can walk down stairs, they just totally hate it. They can't see where they are placing their feet and it is awkward for them, but entirely possible. So they'll balk if you try to lead them down stairs and hang around for a long, long time waiting for another option to appear before they do it, but they can.

You are repeating an urban myth. Cut it out.

[–]mrbooze 9 points10 points ago

Okay, but dogs CAN LOOK UP!

[–]JulezM 1 point2 points ago

If you can show me that a cow can walk down 2 long-ish flights (say 10-12 steps a piece) as would be required from the camel on the balcony, then I would submit. Otherwise, it's inconclusive.

Edit: Guess I am wrong

[–]thenickdude 5 points6 points ago

This is actually a photo of a cow walking backwards up a flight of stairs.

Source: My ass

[–]pedler 9 points10 points ago

camel's knees bend all over the place.

[–]JameeGumb 3 points4 points ago

I've seen cows walk up and down stairs in India. No bullshit

[–]swedish-guy 0 points1 point ago

Why do you assume there is no elevator?

[–]Ihaveafatcat 193 points194 points ago

This is how I like my r/WTF. Something doesn't have to be gory to belong here. It can just be a camel on a balcony.

[–]male_here 46 points47 points ago

This isn't Wtf material bro, I see camels in balconies all the time

[–]ForgettableUsername 2 points3 points ago

Hey, check out this bone infection. You can totally see my tibia. I don't even know what that yellow stuff is.

[–]mattrubik 17 points18 points ago

She told him to run out and hide on the balcony because her husband came home for lunch unexpected.

[–]ProbablySocrates 8 points9 points ago

It's just a camel.

[–]Ecchii 13 points14 points ago

I'm from the middle east and I've never seen anything remotly close to this in my whole life... Which country is this exactly? The architecture looks really poor and worn out. Are you sure he's not in Egypt or Morocco etc.?

[–]jcopzzz 3 points4 points ago

my friend visited family in Morocco and said a cow got stuck on their roof. I wish that could happen to me.

[–]lusrname 2 points3 points ago

I am 95% sure it's in Egypt. I've seen it a few places over the internet today, mainly from Egyptians and one image was on an Egyptian media program.

[–]Reemertastic 12 points13 points ago

Just like how people put their bikes on their balcony.

[–]CertifiedEvil 4 points5 points ago

Yeah I hate it when the camel rack is crowded.

[–]scarleteagle 12 points13 points ago

First thing I thought of, the American equivalent!

[–]zachfayez 4 points5 points ago

[–]bassboat1 1 point2 points ago

Somebody's being cheated on!!!

[–]Schizno 3 points4 points ago

If you have a camel and don't want it stolen, this is exactly what you do. I visited a Bedouin house in Cairo not farm from the Saqarra pyramids and this guy had an entire water buffalo in his house. Also, a goat. I shit you not. There was a special livestock room, mostly unfinished, with a open window in the ceiling.

[–]subwaygamer 4 points5 points ago

no diffrent from a bike on a balcony in the US. nobody can steal it!

[–]magylo 1 point2 points ago

With regard to your "WTF" statement - What the Fuck or When to Fuck? I'm guessing the camel is on the deck because the wife came home early.

[–]RzK 3 points4 points ago

Fact: The middle east isnt a country

I don't care this was actually intended as a Golden Voyage of Sinbad reference, I'm upvoting it anyway because now I want to watch it again.

[–]johnsmcjohn 11 points12 points ago

Why wouldn't he want to show it off? That camel cost him 6 wives after all.

[–]mayaluna 10 points11 points ago

[–]jawz 2 points3 points ago

[–]awwaygirl 2 points3 points ago

Camel parking is a rare commodity. Imagine cars in NYC.

[–]sacriliciously 0 points1 point ago

Brings a whole new meaning to "Honey, that sex was so good I have to go outside and have a camel."

[–]Deyster 2 points3 points ago

I'm from the Middle east and I say "WTF?".

[–]GrilledCheeser 2 points3 points ago

So weird. My neighbor does that same thing with his bike.

[–]iahawk 0 points1 point ago

I love it when my frieds send me pictures.

[–]Marmar3000 2 points3 points ago

The second time I went to Jordan we wanted to go onto the roof of the house (the roofs are flat and have stairs leading up to it) and my cousin cousin tried getting a donkey on to the roof with us. The donkey kept going hee-haw and almost fell backwards down the stairs. My uncle eventually gave up and turned around with the donkey.

On another note, the Middle East is probably one of the best places to go to for a vacation. I want to go there again so badly!

[–]noathings 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, this happens daily

[–]Lorf30 3 points4 points ago

Fried?

[–]DonDriver 2 points3 points ago

"Shit, she's home early. Hide on the balcony and I'll see if I can get rid of her."

[–]Toecuttercutter -1 points0 points ago

I hate it when you're having sex with a camel and your wife comes home, so you try to hide the camel on the balcony. Camels are called ships of the desert because they are full of Arab seamen.

[–]GeneralBS -1 points0 points ago

i cam here to find the fried rice

[–]acefrehley12000 1 point2 points ago

Well camel parking passes are very expensive! The owner of this camel is just living on a budget nothing wrong with that!

[–]Rabbito_17 1 point2 points ago

[–]CuntHunt 1 point2 points ago

Most US apartments now also have no smoking rules which force residents to take their carton of Camels to the balcony.

[–]mitchrodee 1 point2 points ago

That's a still photo from an Iraqi TV show called "Mr. Omar", which was loosely based upon the 1960's American sitcom "Mr. Ed".

I served in Iraq and we saw this same thing in an apartment building but with a cow. The cow was too big to fit through the front door. Apparently, the family had brought it in as a baby calf and had been using it for milk.

[–]cryogenick 0 points1 point ago

Camel what are you doing on the balcony? Get down from there!

[–]InterstellarPancake 0 points1 point ago

As someone from the middle east, this is just scratching the surface. Wait until he's overtaken by a landcruiser with a cheetah or two sticking their heads out the window, or a house in the middle of the desert with life-sized paper mache dinosaurs in the yard and on the roof.
