(upbeat music)
- You don't wanna miss this.
We had canine cuisine,
pedaling cuties,
startling stingrays, (crowd cheering)
beaky bell ringers,
goofy goats
and a back scratching bear.
All this and more right here on "World's Funniest Animals."
Hey there and welcome to "World's Funniest Animals."
We've searched far and wide to bring you
all the most hilarious animal clips.
I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton,
joined by my partners in crime, Hank and Ruby,
as well as our awesome panelists, Daniel,
Carmen and Devon.
We are so happy to have you here.
For the most part
we like to think our pets are perfect angels
but sometimes we catch them red-handed misbehaving
and they're busted.
(jazz music)
- According to criminology experts,
often after taking stolen loot to their stash house,
burglars will have second thoughts
and decide their stolen goods are just too hot to hang onto.
Or in this case, too cold. (audience laughing)
(techno music)
- Jerry, look at your dog. (audience laughing)
- Have you ever dreamed of having a house on the water?
Just imagine looking out your window every morning
to a stunning water view.
Well, here at Shepherd's Water Wonders
we make your dreams come true.
Our specially trained German designers and engineers
will create a gorgeous pond in your front yard.
- What are you doing? (audience laughing)
(accordion music)
- People say, da Vinci was the greatest Italian artist.
We respectfully disagree
because I happen to like spaghetti
and my buddy prefers meatballs,
so of course, spaghetti and meatballs.
Now the guy who invented that,
he was a genius. (audience laughing)
- Okay, good dog. - Good dog.
- Oh, whoospie! (audience laughing)
(rock music) (whistle tweeting)
- Some of my friends think
that my house is a little bit messy
but they just don't understand.
I'm actually an extremely organized person.
I have a drawer for my socks,
a drawer for my pants,
a drawer for my shirts,
even one for my raccoon. (audience laughing)
See, everything in its own specific place.
Now tell me that's not being organized.
Say it.
- Hey, (upbeat music)
what are you doing up there?
- Okay, I can explain. It's not my fault.
I heard a noise and I went to investigate.
It was a whole family of mice.
I jumped up here and I scared them away,
but too late, they already ate it all
and that's the doggone honest truth.
(audience laughing)
- Okay, if you're watching (upbeat music)
right now with your favorite animal friend right beside you
better get a treat ready or they're gonna be jealous
because here's Feeding Frenzy.
(jazz music)
- So they spent all this money
for the squirrel proof bird feeder,
even with the cone thing on top,
to keep the squirrels from coming down
and stealing the bird seed.
I'm sorry, but do they not know
that squirrels are so resourceful?
Yes, they can climb other tree branches
besides just the one
that the feeder's hanging from.
(audience laughing) Hello?
(upbeat music) (audience laughing)
- Here another unhappy customer finds out,
to his disappointment,
that there is no longer a surprise in the bag.
And actually, there never was a surprise in these snacks,
but hey, I'm with you, buddy.
I think there should be surprises in everything.
(whistle tweeting) (audience laughing)
- Hey, you mind if I just dunk this
in your soup for a second? (chuckles)
These things just have zero flavor,
like fried paper or something.
Thank you. Mm, now they're delicious.
Sorry if I offended the chef.
(bright piano music)
- Summers seem to be getting even hotter.
When an extreme heat advisory is issued
go to the coolest place in the house,
stay well-nourished with an emphasis on hydrating foods.
Stay safe everybody. (audience laughing)
- Favorite animal clips? (upbeat music)
we all have them.
Take a look at some of mine.
(upbeat music)
- Army food. - Tipping point definition,
the critical point in a situation process or a system
beyond which a significant and often unstoppable effect
or change takes place.
Tipping point with french fries is six.
(animal growling)
Yep, that's exactly what happened here.
Hey, can't argue with science.
Pets are full of surprises. (upbeat music)
We know this, but still... (cat meowing)
Surprise. (audience laughing)
You got me again. (cat yowling)
(upbeat rhythmic music) (camera person laughing)
Yeah yeah, I know, I'm a dalmatian
but when it's dinner time
I suddenly identify as a kangaroo.
(audience laughing)
(segue whooshing) (techno music)
It's A Wild Life, next on "World's Funniest Animals."
(audience laughing)
(techno music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals."
Now it's time to take a walk on the wild side.
Here's A Wild Life. (jazz music)
- Being a more refined deer,
I really cannot condone a practice
common among my less civilized associates.
I'm talking about stealing food from the garden.
Just to crass.
I prefer to wait until it's properly
seasoned and prepared. (audience laughing)
(disco music)
- People in this town got so fed up
with exhaust belching garbage trucks
waking them up way too early every week
with their loud engines and backup beepers.
This new trash collector they hired is zero emission
and extremely quiet.
In fact, they bear-ly knew he was there.
(audience laughing)
(techno music)
- Yeah, I've been there.
You're having a little get together with some friends
on a nice summer day by the pool
and you notice the neighbors
have put themselves in plain view
obviously in an attempt to get you to invite them too.
So what do you do?
You pretty much have no choice except to say,
"Oh, hi. Great to see ya.
"Come on in and join us." (audience laughing)
But the worst thing is
when they take off and leave their kid behind.
Okay, great. Now I'm providing free babysitting too.
(audience laughing)
(techno music) (audience laughing)
- Of all the trees in the forest,
why does this bear always pick this one to scratch on?
Ah yes, I know. I see why.
It's a fir tree. Ha ha ha. (audience laughing)
- I can't wait for this next segment.
(techno music) I'm almost as excited
as the animals in Jump for Joy.
(upbeat rhythmic music) (audience laughing)
- The birthday party is over.
The kids should be exhausted,
but nope, they're bouncing off the walls
after all that sugar. (audience laughing)
- "Dancing With the Stars" (upbeat music)
has some new competition.
Now there's Dancing with the Dogs.
Here's a quick clip. (audience laughing)
Dancing with the dogs.
I mean, even the name has a better ring to it.
(bright happy music) (audience laughing)
- [Observer] Look at those big waves that they're making.
- [Observer] They're having a good time, aren't they?
- It's the new dance challenge and it's gonna go viral.
Two dancers in a pool (audience laughing)
and, oh yeah, you have to be twins.
(record scratching) Well...
Okay, maybe that excludes a large portion
of the social media users, so I doubt it goes viral.
(audience laughing)
(techno music) - Okay, okay, I get it.
You don't trust me enough to let me run around free.
You're afraid I'll just run off like some idiot dog.
That's bad enough but do you have to humiliate me
with this neon rope?
Come on, all the neighborhood dogs
are just howling with laughter at me right now.
It's so embarrassing. (audience laughing)
(folk music) (audience laughing)
- Toys can mean different things to each of us.
For most, a trampoline is fun to bounce on.
For others, it just provides good shade.
Hey, to each his own. (segue whooshing)
- Get ready for some awesome cuddles.
It's snuggle time, (upbeat music)
next on "World's Funniest Animals."
(upbeat music)
You're watching "World's Funniest Animals"
and I'm your host, Elizabeth Stanton.
Now grab your pet and get comfy because it's Snuggle Time.
(upbeat music)
- As the story goes, in 1902 President Teddy Roosevelt
was seen in a cartoon (audience laughing)
refusing to shoot a bear.
From that idea a Brooklyn candy shop owner invented
the Teddy bear for kids to play with.
Sorry, that story is actually historically wrong.
He made it for cats. (audience laughing)
(jazz music) (audience laughing)
- Raccoons have the reputation of being
the masked bad boys of the animal world,
known for scattering trash, shredding lawn furniture,
and creating general havoc.
But here we are seeing a sensitive side
to the Masked Marauder.
But no matter how much he would like to let down his guard
he just can't remove his mask. (audience laughing)
(lullaby music) (audience laughing)
- The plastic chicken is a classic dog toy.
There's the squeaking version,
the clucking version,
and the one with a place for hiding treats inside.
All are guaranteed to get your pooch tugging
and shaking and jumping with super excitement.
This is the new live version.
It seems to just put the dog to sleep.
(audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
- When you live in a crowded household
everybody just has to learn to share
and be cool with lots of close contact
except when it comes to litter box time.
Okay, then it's, "Hey, I need my privacy.
"Just gimme two minutes. (audience laughing)
"10 minutes."
(upbeat music)
- Awe, finally Tom and Jerry have made up.
It just goes to show you
that you should just open your heart to the universe
and you can be friends with your worst enemy.
(hands slapping) (audience laughing)
But I'm still gonna swat mosquitoes.
- Time to cool off (techno music)
and enjoy the water
because here's our next segment, Splish Splash.
(upbeat music) (water splashing)
- This zoo paid some highly educated world renowned designer
a ton of money to create a habitat
to make their grizzly bears feel right at home.
But they forgot one basic thing.
Grizzly bears are huge. (audience laughing)
How can they possibly fit in this tiny thing?
News flash, in the wild bears have ponds big enough
to actually get into.
Come on. That's Habitat 101 stuff.
(audience laughing) (dance music)
- This is a news alert.
An unidentified flying object has crash landed
in a Florida marine park.
Wait, this just in.
As events are unfolding it has become clear
that the mysterious saucer-shaped entity
is not in fact an object,
but astonishingly a living creature.
A courageous trainer is currently feeding it
until authorities can reach the scene.
WAKY News is following these events closely.
More updates to follow. (audience laughing)
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- Okay, so I do this for about an hour or so,
I get my grass watered
and then my cat won't be waking me up
at three in the morning knocking over flower pots.
It's a win-win. (audience laughing)
(playful music)
- Amusement parks (water splashing)
are mega businesses these days
and they're always on the lookout to extend their reach.
Now they are going after an untapped market
that was hiding in plain sight,
North America's bustling population
of over 1 million elk.
With several companies vying for a foothold,
elk water parks like these
have sprung up everywhere. (audience laughing)
The customers are certainly enthusiastic
but there's still that big question of profitability.
Will these be the next amusement wave
(water splashing) or just a drop in the bucket?
Stay tuned to find out.
(upbeat music) (audience laughing)
- The worst thing about using a lawn sprinkler
is having to move it all the time.
This new sprinkler called the Auto Rover
does all the work for you.
It's like a Rumba for your lawn.
(audience laughing) Genius.
(segue whooshing) (upbeat music)
- Get ready, we're going airborne.
Taking Flight next on "World's Funniest Animals."
(upbeat music)
Welcome back to "World's Funniest Animals."
For some of us, the only way to go is up.
Here's some animals showing off in Taking Flight.
(jazz music)
(beak thudding) (audience laughing)
(door bell chiming)
- While some delivery companies
are experimenting with drone drop-offs,
one is going another direction.
Bird X.
Here we see a homeowner being notified
that his package has just been dropped off.
(door bell chiming) (audience laughing)
(techno music) (bird squeaking)
- Because they're doing it all the time
and it's just so easy, (audience laughing)
sometimes flying can be monotonous.
Now this is a fun way to get up and down.
(audience laughing)
(jazz music) (bird chirping)
- In the animal world
different species have different ways of courting.
Here we see a typical behavior in parakeets
where a female will fall all over herself
when she simply sees an attractive male.
For humans, seems like it's the other way around.
(audience laughing) (bird chirping)
- Watch what Cooper does (playful music)
when we turn the windshield wipers on.
(wipers thudding) (audience laughing)
He's like, "What the!" (laughs)
- Ah, you said, here come the wipers.
I thought you said vipers.
Where I come from in Australia,
somebody says vipers you definitely better jump.
(audience laughing)
Yeah, to Australians the American accent
is sometimes very hard to understand.
(upbeat dance music) (audience laughing)
- In the fast-paced world of fashion,
designers are always trying
to come up with the next big thing.
This designer is betting on white on white,
a classic throwback.
I think it's gonna take off.
(audience laughing)
- Now. You see 'em. Now you don't.
Here's some animals with their own Vanishing Act.
(upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
- These ferrets have found a great place to play and relax.
Then suddenly (gasps) help, help.
Whiskers is stuck and he can't get out
and I hear the recycling truck coming.
(audience laughing) (rock music)
(kitten thudding)
- Letting the cat out of the bag is bad
but letting the cat fall into the bag,
that's even worse.
(audience laughing) (playful music)
- The cooler is arguably the best place to keep cool
but it's also slippery (audience laughing)
especially if you have hooves.
(upbeat music) - Oh, you got him down there?
- Stop it you guys. - Hey buddy.
- They can drive. There we go. (spectator gasping)
- Cool. - Oh, my window's open. No!
(audience laughing) (spectators laughing)
- Hey, I like this girl. She's spunky.
She's not afraid to get right in there all casual
and climb around with the best of them.
No problem. (audience laughing)
- [Observer] Hey buddy, hey buddy.
Look, there's bacon. There's bacon.
But still, she's old school enough
to wait for the guy to open the door for her.
- Genius. Okay. (audience laughing)
- Well that's almost it for us (upbeat music)
but in case you missed anything along the way
here's a quick recap of all of our funniest moments.
We had fry catching canines, pasta loving pit bulls,
ravenous raccoons, dancing dalmatians, bouncing bears,
frivolous ferrets, and passionate parakeets.
(techno music) (audience laughing)
Thanks so much to our great panel
and thank you for tuning in.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton.
We'll see you next time on "World's Funniest Animals."
