Probably the first gif I've ever enjoyed watching in slo-mo as it loads.

The suspense was killing me!

[–]cobra_2109 60 points61 points ago

Of course, this was the one time a gif loaded quickly for me.

[–]Se7en_Sinner 19 points20 points ago

Next time, try downloading porn in the background.

Yes, it has to be porn to maximize the effect.

[–]zidanetribal 9 points10 points ago

This man knows what he is talking about.

[–]Squall2201 0 points1 point ago

Oh so you automatically assume he is a man because porn was mentioned in his comment?

[–]stevendidntsay 4 points5 points ago

[–]nidalmorra 2 points3 points ago

Try gifexploder

or if you have chrome, this extension called GIF Scrubber.

[–]nidalmorra 87 points88 points ago

It was better in slo-mo!

on mobile I just wasted 15 minutes of my life watching this in slow mo... damn you!

[–]TheyMightBeMidgets 2 points3 points ago

I was disappointed that at the end the croc didn't slip a $20 to the wildebeest who insisted it was a log.

BAM! Found it.

Now someone go post it in /r/funny with a catchy title.

I think it's a whole lot better with the wildebeest grunt sounds.

[–]Crim91 17 points18 points ago

No no no, like this "Gay atheist black man cooking bacon while tending to his cats, beaten to death by douchebag cop with the alias 'karmanaut'".

Now that's a fucking post title.

[–]windyfish 11 points12 points ago

I tried clicking your post cause it makes me wet.

[–]SadTruth_HappyLies 2 points3 points ago

I read "creative" not "karma whorish", but what the hell. I'd add:

Louis CK does a bit about a gay atheist black man cooking bacon...

[–]Joaf 2 points3 points ago

And add "gay atheist black man turns out to be Ron DeGrasse Gaben"

...so it's a log right?

[–]Lore86 86 points87 points ago

naaaa, I show you

[–]Jman513 27 points28 points ago

Look I'm telling you its an allig-aaaaaaaaa!

[–]DumplingSawce 26 points27 points ago

Pretty sure it's a log.

[–]ItsAllrightImRussian 15 points16 points ago

Hey man, is that a log?

[–]captainmorgan23 14 points15 points ago

Dude. It's a alligator. Watch, I'm gonna throw this rock at it.

[–]Tulsakaleb 12 points13 points ago

It's not moving at all. Does that mean its safe?

[–]captainmorgan23 8 points9 points ago

No. It's definitely dangerous. Look, I'll poke it with this stick.

[–]Tulsakaleb 7 points8 points ago

Still not moving. Trust me, it's a log.

[–]mmmmbacon7 3 points4 points ago

I'm serious it's an alligator, lemme splash some water on it, that'll show you once and for all.

[–]zbowman 3 points4 points ago

no way. definitely an aligator

[–]Soul_0f_Wit 6 points7 points ago

actually, I think it was a crocodile

[–]DeathHamsterDude 10 points11 points ago

Crocodile dude.

[–]mach-2 3 points4 points ago

A log?

[–]skarface6 1 point2 points ago

No. A croc--dieeeeeee

[–]Janse 25 points26 points ago

I give it 8/10, it would be 10/10 if the 2 new ones took the place of the 2 old ones, making it a infinite loop.

[–]p53angel 6 points7 points ago

haha, I sorta imagined that's what happens anyway.

[–]j_erv 0 points1 point ago

They do in the source video, FWIW. Danno1850 found it. And here it is.

[–]Janse 6 points7 points ago

No they do not. I mean the 2 new ones should position themselves exactly where the first 2 stood. So that the movie/gif can be looped infinitely without any glitch.

[–]Szos 7 points8 points ago

That was great.

Would have been even better if it looped seamlessly.

[–]UnfortunateCakeDay 50 points51 points ago

I wish they could have planned it to loop less jarringly. The story is obviously cyclical, and the GIF medium is perfect for that, but that bump breaks the cycle for me.

[–][deleted] 21 points22 points ago

This gif was taken from a video.

[–]7ypo 7 points8 points ago

You're right, in the GIF format, it would be perfect. But it's originally in video format.

[–]this_sort_of_thing 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, it could have been so perfectly looped

someone not lazy do it, i'll gib u karma..

[–]super_INEK 30 points31 points ago

My fucktard brain has to pull out some deeper meaning in this but I say NO!

That is clearly an alligator.

[–]leon945 2 points3 points ago

no, it's a log

[–]Haasts_Eagle 0 points1 point ago

Looks like a Natalie Dee drawing.

Edit: It is, here's another one.

[–]Intel2010 3 points4 points ago

This for some reason reminded me of the Pixar short Partly Cloudy. I don't know why. But they are both awesome.

[–]ScotteeMC 1 point2 points ago

Awwww the kitty cats :3

[–]dafuqdidIwrite 3 points4 points ago

I think it's an excellent example of how we seek social approval for even the things we know for sure... Till the time we are able to convince another person to agree with it, we do not appreciate our own knowledge...

[–]p53angel 1 point2 points ago

Wow, that was surprisingly deep. Now the funny gif is making me sad, because I, too, need validation. :/

Is it wierd that my brain was filling in cow like noises(mooing) every time one of their speech bubbles came up. I haven't watched the video but I want to believe that's what was going on in the video.

[–]thatdudecalledZZ 0 points1 point ago

Every time I see or hear the word "Wildebeest" I think of this scene

[–]drainoltx 0 points1 point ago

I was watching Gator Boys on Animal Planet last night, and some dude called the boys about a gator in his backyard so they can remove it somewhere else because he have kids. The dude didn't want to go back there to show them where he saw the gator because "he's seen them pull in wildebeests in from land on TV." Apparently alligator =/= crocodiles.

[–]DoctorDeath 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of a joke.

Cleetus and Wilbur, a couple of rednecks are working at a saw mill when all of a sudden Wilbur hears a "BBZZZZZing! YooooWWcH!"

Wilbur runs to his friends side and sees that there is blood all over the bench, all over the saw, all over Cleetus and all over the floor. Cleetus' hand also lay on the floor, still twitching. Wilbur yells, "Cleetus! What in tarnation happened here!?"

Cleetus replies, "I don't know! I was a reachin' in fer thet piece o' wood like this... BBZZZZZing! YooooWWcH!"

9/10, would be a 10/10 if it was perfectly looped.

[–]Mikoangelo 0 points1 point ago

In the real world, it'd be the other one risking his life to prove the other wrong. And that's how natural selection promotes believing alarmists.

[–]iGotChubs4You 0 points1 point ago

What I don't understand is why the one who thinks it is an alligator is the one to hop onto it. If he thinks it is an alligator he should know to stay away. The one who is arguing that it is a log would more naturally be the one to jump onto it because, in his mind, it is just a log and therefore it is harmless.
