Osteriches are actually kind of terrifying. They are upwards of 9 feet tall, 300 pounds, and can run 40mph. nostr:note17x5me6cmmzpy4n2s8jr2m0sqm6ur4v2cg25kpym3d3k42l2quu2qywnvu9

This thing is hauling!

They are like very fast and ugly Sam Hyde's

Wow!! That’s nuts. 🤙

So fast. So furious.

Powerful critters

Essentially a Jurassic Park raptor without teeth

Bryan Callan has a funny bit about Ostriches:

When getting attacked by an ostrich all you need to do is stand your ground, raise your one arm, grab it by the neck with the other arm when it gets close and pull down and then you are in charge. Easy as that, they are more vulnerable than they appear. Whatever you do, do not run, you'll get your ass kicked if you do.

Good advice. I’m curious why the arm raise?

No idea, I just follow the instructions as they were given by the ancestors.

Oh my word, the tenacity! That beast just kept going & going— perfect metaphor! 😂
