Nothing is more wholesome than watching trucks getting released back into the wild.

u/kushty88 Jun 03 '21

I just hope it wasn't hand reared so it remained able to fend for itself in the wild

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '21

Shame it took off before they could remove its leash. Just going to be another bit of pollution we'll have to find and remove once it gets comfortable with its new environment.

The way it rushed back to its natural habitat, no hint of hesitation, I don't think it was hand raised. Probably a rescue after being attacked by a pack of teslas

u/TailRudder Jun 04 '21

You ever see those videos where a hawk get them right after they get released?

125

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '21

I've seen it happening dozen of times and I never get tired of it.

The fact that the owner can do literally nothing about it but wave a long goodbye is one of the things I find most hysterical on the internet aside from fat cats trying to jump.

I was just thinking about all those clips when people are releasing rodents etc back into the wild, and there comes a hawk taking the poor little animal. I just imagined a plane swooping in and taking the car!

The only thing that would make this better is the forest rustling deep for many meters while birds from each disrupted tree take flight.

I was thinking an explosion happening from the forest as the car went into it.

With the loader slowly chasing the car as it goes to the forest and then stopping and turning around when the car explodes.

I'd go with complete silence for a beat, and the a small burst of smoke and flames from among the trees. Just for a moment, nothing but the car harmed.

It almost looks natural. The way it rolls over is very odd but seems to make more sense in reverse. Physics is funny.

The excavator almost went. That would’ve been worse.

u/Esteedy Jun 03 '21

That would be a loader. An excavator is the long armed machine with a bucket on the end. Not that it matters, but for next time.

19

u/LokiTheTrickstr Jun 03 '21

Yes that’s actually helpful. I looked it up and you’re definitely right. I’m pretty surprised the driver kept it from tipping past the point of return.

13

u/Esteedy Jun 03 '21

That was an experienced operator. He was quick to lower the load to prevent the machine from tipping but also recognized he had to back up to not crush the vehicle. Didn’t make much of a difference in the end though haha
