It looks like QWOP, but for... 4 legged animals??

[–]goingTofu 4 points5 points ago

QAWSOKPL.....oh god, as if 4 wasn't hard enough

[–]CrazyBastard 3 points4 points ago

CLOP?

[–]Alpha_Llama 3 points4 points ago

It's obviously a "special" reindeer trying to fly for the first time!

[–]elint 4 points5 points ago

I guess you could say "pretty good job for a college-level computer animation project". (Think "Computer Science Class", not "Art Class" animation).

[–]whiskey100 2 points3 points ago

Good lord, I cannot stop laughing.

[–]rhoswhen 2 points3 points ago

It's an animation of how I run in my dreams!

[–]A_Total_Asshole 5 points6 points ago

This is your dog. This is drugs. THIS IS YOUR DOG ON DRUGS.

[–]Heroshade 2 points3 points ago

Listen to this song while watching that gif, extra inspirational.

[–]There_will_be_cake 1 point2 points ago

Took the gif from hilarious to..... even more hilarious.

Props

[–]JCVDaaayum 1 point2 points ago

This seems less like something running right to left and more like...someone has cut the head off a camel and its spazzing out of control, in a good way.

[–]orthag 1 point2 points ago

It's bizarrely unsettling.

[–]nukefudge 0 points1 point ago

proof of some game glitches being programmed, for extra PR?

[–]soopeh -1 points0 points ago

Isn't this an exact replica of a horse running and showing how it shouldn't be physically possible? A bit like a bumble bee flying.

[–]PurpleNoodles 1 point2 points ago

Isn't the bumble bee thing a total myth?

Also... Why should it not be physically possible for a horse to run? That makes no sense at all.

[–]soopeh 0 points1 point ago

No idea to either! I just remember reading it somewhere ages ago.

[–]PurpleNoodles 1 point2 points ago

Hmm... I would definitely call BS on the horse thing. There is no reason a horse shouldn't be able to run :p

[–]tothebrothel 0 points1 point ago

I believe the debate was whether or not all 4 legs left the ground at one time.

[–]PurpleNoodles 0 points1 point ago

Aah, that makes a bit more sense. A bit.

[–]sixstringer420 0 points1 point ago

I don't know what to say either, but I'm listening to zydeco, and this seems to eerily fit. Odd.

[–]red321red321 1 point2 points ago

looks like the worst case of restless leg syndrome i've ever seen

[–]theseheartswontstop 1 point2 points ago

It's like an awkward underweight giraffe with a short neck dancing....

[–]randirockstar 0 points1 point ago

I have dreams like this.

[–]Pinklizard26 0 points1 point ago

Animal QWOP!!! I fail at that game... But god I laugh watching myself fail!

[–]digitalTimelord 0 points1 point ago

I laughed so hard I cried. I have no idea why this gif amuses me so much.

[–]matapuwili 1 point2 points ago

I do. It doesn't belong in wtf.

[–]Yuppers16 0 points1 point ago

Majestic.
