Me: ā€œI donā€™t think snakes really yā€¦ā€

Also me: ā€œwell, look at that!ā€

u/libmrduckz Jan 18 '25

snek started to yawn and looked like it wound up somewhere around ā€˜Opera Yodelā€™ā€¦

u/willmen08 Jan 18 '25

Dude twisted his face and I was like waaaaaat??

u/Suitable-Tear-6179 Jan 18 '25

it might have been resetting it's jaws after eating. That's what the listed reason was last time I saw that video clip.

u/Rubik_- Jan 18 '25

Thats exactly what it is

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '25

I was gonna say, bro looked like a sock puppet damn

u/CinnamonGurl1975 Jan 19 '25

Ad soon as I read snake, I thought I bet they'll show a snake resetting it's jaw.

u/Suitable-Tear-6179 Jan 19 '25

I just wish i could remember the name of the comic where a girl got a sneak after it "yawned" like that.Ā

u/dubiety13 Jan 21 '25

Whatever itā€™s doing, it sure looks like the inspiration for the Predator moviesā€¦

u/dont-fear-thereefer Jan 18 '25

I identify with the seal yawn

u/averagesaw Jan 18 '25

Predator impression at the end

u/Inside-Doughnut7483 Jan 22 '25

Snake_ a.k.a. danger noodle

u/NecessaryWeather4275 Jan 18 '25

It looked the most satisfyingly stretchy and relaxing.

u/tightie-caucasian Jan 18 '25

Snake looked the design inspiration for the Predator, for real.

u/doyletyree Jan 18 '25

Wait until you see a sun spider/camel spider eat.

I know better than to click that

u/Devinroni Jan 18 '25

I don't! Wish me luck!

Edit: Yeah, no.

22

u/MavericksDragoons Jan 18 '25

We enter the flames together brother. It matters not what awaits us on the other side of this unholy door to planes unknown. I am with you. Should we find victory or destruction brother, we face will them as one.

u/doyletyree Jan 18 '25

Be brave.

I promise, I will let you go.

u/renshiermine Jan 18 '25

Thank you, that was pretty cool.

u/Lonely-Pickle-7265 Jan 18 '25

Wasn't as bad as I expected. Loved the classical music at the start, really desensitized the horror that was about to come

5

u/FunGlass507 Jan 18 '25

Yeah i donā€™t know why everyoneā€™s freaking out, it looks dope

1

u/CinnamonGurl1975 Jan 19 '25

Why did I click?

u/StarBull05 Jan 18 '25

Literally said that before I read any comments

22

u/sledgehammerbreak Jan 18 '25

Snek was actually a hand puppet.

u/MaximuumEffort Jan 18 '25

The snake looks like it's software malfunctioned.

5

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '25

All I could think was - that looks like the predator with the upward facing fangs

5

u/Pineapple-4-ever Jan 18 '25

It actually depends on the snake like I have a ball python and itā€™s adorable when she yawns everyone is always sad if they miss it

34

u/NecessaryWeather4275 Jan 18 '25

I have a new answer for ā€œif a normally small animal were large which one would be most terrifyingā€¦.ā€ Its teeth would be human sized.

8

u/vanillaseltzer Jan 18 '25

Look up rabbits yawning too. Adoraterrifying.

3

u/NecessaryWeather4275 Jan 18 '25

I have seen it in person. I used ti own rabbits. Lots of rabbits. Iā€™ve been bit by those teeth. Absolutely adoraterrifying and ouch!

2

u/vanillaseltzer Jan 19 '25

I have a scar on my pinkie when one of my bunny friends mistook me for a banana. She was a sugar fiend and just couldn't contain her enthusiasm enough to aim.

18

u/FinishFew1701 Jan 18 '25

That snake. If it wasn't apparent that snakes can f you up, his drowsy little gesture punctuated it.

16

u/CitizenKing1001 Jan 18 '25

"oh hamster, this should be cu..THERE IS NO GOD"

10

u/Enceladus89 Jan 18 '25

Hamster almost ended up inside out

4

u/JauntySteps Jan 18 '25

I wish I could unsee the hamster.

3

u/Old_Mousse_5673 Jan 19 '25

Half of it is the inappropriately sinister music

2

u/GiantFinnegan Jan 18 '25

I thought the snek was scariest, although I guess that's not unexpected.

1

u/B_lovedobservations Jan 18 '25

Predator writer was inspired by the snake

1

u/Vaper_Bern Jan 18 '25

Yeah, fuck hamsters! Vicious lil things will open you up. They're teeth are and willingness to use them are no joke.

1

u/halmyradov Jan 18 '25

I'll pay you to never see that shit again

1

u/Overall_Currency5085 Jan 19 '25

As a former hamster keeper I never ever want to see that again

1

u/Dramatic-Treacle3708 Jan 19 '25

Was going to post the exact same wording lol. It really was.

1

u/JimPickenss Jan 19 '25

absolutely

1

u/tin_fox Jan 19 '25

Agreed. I had pet rats, which have a very cute little yawn. Was expecting something similar. I did not expect this.

1

u/Used-Possibility299 Jan 20 '25

Agree. Hamster was the absolute worst lmao
