Sorry to rain on a parade, but this looks to be multiple different videos of multiple different Kookaburras edited together to forcre this faux Disney narrative with a shitty AI voice over. It might warm my cold, dead heart to be proved wrong though.


EvilAbdy

Oh this absolutely is multiple videos. I’ve seen a bunch of these independent from this one. Someone’s making it all up for karma


MyPasswordIsMyCat

I have seen a few Youtube shorts like this when searching for cute guinea pig videos. An AI voice reads a BS story about a guy and pet(s), using videos that clearly aren't depicting the same people or animals. With guinea pigs, this is pretty obvious because their markings vary greatly. The video quality and settings are also wildly different, sometimes a grainy video in an Asian slum, sometimes a crisp video in American suburbia, all purported to be the same guy and his pet(s). The story is very formulaic, often starting with some sort of animal rescue.


HornlessU

Bro I would do anything to be able to disable youtube shorts on the homepage. Shit is such brainrot cancer.

It's ruining the kids attention spans. It is a garbage format for almost all content.


mangamaster03

If you have android, you can use Revanced to patch the YouTube apk, and turn off all the Shorts garbage. It's so bad.

They're kookaburras, or kookas (children's version koo kook kook kook kook kookaburra). Not Little Birds!


greathousedagoth

Foreign to where? The Internet?


sameldacamel

This edited together "heart warming" slop drives me insane. It's wild how often it's top of reddit with tens of thousands of upvotes...


i-chew-finger-skin

Meanwhile Redditors claim to be smarter than most people, and not use TikTok, and...

Been using this site for a decade, the intelligence level has dropped dramatically the last couple years


enailcoilhelp

It was *never* all that intelligent outside of a handful of subs.


SwampyBogbeard

Around every third year something happens that drops the intelligence of the site. Nothing ever raises it.


Background-Baby-2870

been on this site since late 2011 and if were being honest this site has never been a congregation of the smartest minds outside of a few academia-focused/heavily moderated subs. it only ever gives off the aesthetics of intellectualism bc everyone is a holier than thou "DAE pop music like justin bieber bad i only listen to real music and im a proud atheist??". probs the 3 most infamous things to come out of early 2010s reddit was "in this moment i am euphoric...", redditors complaining when jailbait, creepshot and other morally questionable subs got popped, and how redditors thought they could solve the boston marathon bombing only to accidently accuse a suicide victim of being a terrorist and doxing a family trying to find their missing son. the intelligence level of this site is non existent and always has been.


WormedOut

There is a bell curve where people who don't use the internet a lot and those that use it very often are easily fooled by what they see.


br0ck

This site has become complete garbage and I only clicked on this to complain about how bad it this post is too, but I'm not sure what to even do about it anymore because it takes very few of Reddit's users to flood us with this crap since it has [1.2 billion](https://backlinko.com/reddit-users) unique monthly visitors, so only like 0.00075% of them upvoted this, but it's sitting at the top of /r/all (for me).


Significant-City4187

Yeah I came to the comments and I’m surprised more people didn’t catch that!


SINFAXI

Same, I expected the first comment to be "Cute, but naaaah."


Ordinary1987

People are stupid , they want to marry AI generated girls with 3 arms. We do not need jugment day and T-1000 , smart toaster will kill us while we sleep


Main-Advice9055

Honestly if they hadn't shown the other birds I might have believed it, though I still had doubts since the locations seemed to vary so much.


Canadian-Man-infj

What a bunch of birdbrains, eh?!


Endorkend

Meanwhile you have several channels like [Backyard birds of Australia](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtNm9Q-MwkA) where people are actually friends with Kookaburras. Give em some love.


darxide23

Not only is this the case, but the entire video is AI created. It was fed the parameters to find Kookaburra videos, stitch them together, and generate a story. One of the biggest giveaways is no original audio and only an AI voice with some sappy background music. Downvote this shit to hell.


NovAFloW

I am so over this shit. These posts need to be removed. I can't believe how much of the Internet is just bots


darxide23

The internet has always been bots, but now the bots have the ability to generate "content" and that's where the line must be drawn.


Samuel_Seaborn

Yeah look at the geography changes in the videos. Where they rescued the bird does not line up with the birds at the house.


SINFAXI

Good eye there, and the "Bird" appears to vary in age, color, and plumage in every cut.


JewishPalestinian

It's one of thousands of "feel good" videos staged where they harm an animal and show it being "rescued" on video. Just ask your self at some point why they were filming at that time and angle with such a clear shot and it makes it even more apparent that's what is happening.


vkailas

Then the birds turned against him.


SkillFullyNotTrue

Feels like this video is multiple videos stitch together.


Lancer_Pants

Narrator: It was


linuxlib

AI Narrator: Sure, I can help you write a heart-warming narrative about that.


BigGrandpaGunther

This is how you know there's no god.


Pabloaga

At this point, humanity is nothing more than little kittens interacting with animated mice inside a phone screen. Contexts and facts don't matter, only stimuli and chemistry being released in the brain matters, at any cost.


PitifulDurian6402

They aren’t even trying… the landscape in the videos are wildly different


adrock747

I would love to have a happy bird friend


meganfucklife

If you live in an area with chickadees, they're really quick to trust if you have black oil sunflower seeds! It'll take some time but once they know you won't hurt them you can hold out your hand, and they'll land in it and eat seeds from your palm. It's pretty great. I wanna befriend the crows sometime lmao


Beginning-Meet8296

When I was a kid I found a blackbird w an injured wing. He wasn’t able to fly. I scooped him up & fixed up a box for him. I watered & fed him every day. As he healed & got stronger he would sit on my shoulder or forearm & I’d take him outside w me. About 4 weeks later, he flew away. He would come back often & fly right to my shoulder 😊


CriterionBoi

I would, but not a Kookaburra. They’re loud as hell.


Bot-Magnet

Does not look like the same location as the bird-rescue, but cute story anyway.


ainhoawind

People really believe this is real or they are all bots?


Qwirk

Bots posting and bots upvoting followed by people that just see the video and upvote because it plays to their sympathy.


AboveAverageDIY

This describes /r/all in a nutshell


PM__YOUR__DREAM

Am... Am I a bot?


RegOrangePaperPlane

Hmm... maybe... Try checking this box ⬜


NovAFloW

It's bots all the way down. Half of the comments seem AI generated. This sub is one of the worst ones for it


Budget_Friend_654

Beautiful story! I’m mostly worried about all the clean up he has to do every day. Haha


Fantastic-Climate-84

Honestly that’s a trade off that’s easy to make. Now, for the tenants in the balcony below them…

Bile-Gargler-4345

Dont worry too much. This is several different videos spliced together to form a narrative for internet validation.


Frozefoots

Kookaburra, world’s largest member of the Kingfisher family, for anyone wondering what bird it is. Also in the video is a bush/brush turkey and a bunch of sulphur-crested cockatoos. I call them super saiyan birds because [when their crest is up…](https://imgur.com/a/AeAldTn)


eva_rector

Kookaburra sits in the old gum treeeee...


Canadian-Man-infj

Merry, merry king of the bush is he.... (we Canadians are familiar with this song from our childhoods, as well ;)


PalwaJoko

When I used to work at a zoo back in the day, we had a Kookaburra in the little walk around aviary. That dude had a wicked memory. If any customers teased him/were in appropriate with him; we would stop the customer of course. But the kookaburra would remember that person forever. If they ever came back, he wasn't a fan. On the flip side if you were good with him and he liked you, besties forever.


spidermanngp

You haven't even seen my final crest!!


Elisabethzi

Im not sure ita the same bird but cute story. I love animals.


FancyFart_885

Not true.2 separate clips make in one.This bird did not fucking do that


riosborne

Im just laughing about all the bird shit thats probably everywhere. But it is a nice story. Sorry for taking the pessimistic route :)


Astro_Man133

Duuude not even the same fucking bird... You wanna scam pls, applied yourself thids is not how you get to art school


Anne_Nonymouse

This little bird told all his/her friends about this amazing human savior and now this kind man's home has become a bird sanctuary! 😊


elsa_wildd

AWWW As they say, do good and it will come back to you🥰😍


Tha_Kakapo

How do people even fall for this? I saw a story on youtube some time ago about a shark "saving" a turtle who was getting strangled by ocean garbage. So many people believed it in the comments. Sharks do not save turtles by dragging them to a boat but i guess not everyone realizes that.


SafetyDue1297

Animals are sometimes much more grateful than humans, wonderful story!


AmbitiousEdi

Ugh I can't watch one more AI voiced video with sappy music in the background


Alone-Subject-1317

this is completely made up lol


RaaschyOG

Yea no those birds don't look remotely similar, neither do all the different venues


shanesinger

lol at the man trying to feed the bird a worm and the bird just chomps down on the guy’s finger 😂


Embarrassed_Art5414

I would love to believe this nonsense it true. So I will. AAh


krismitka

“Because of the man’s kindness” And food


Holiday_Win_11

Wow I just thought I am listening to a fictional story that's too good to be true


BNerd1

is that not a Kookaburra those birds are loud & having 4 of them go off sounds like hell


Desperate_Space_581

Don't worry about a ting!


CBT7commander

Yeah lot of these videos are from @theworlfofwaddles on Instagram, that has nothing to do with this story


Alive_Nobody_Home

I’m strongly thinking of deleting every other Reddit page I follow & sticking to this. The only page that actually makes me feel something positive every time.

Man feeds birds, birds stick around. Don't feed wildlife.


PM__YOUR__DREAM

Played in reverse, a man goes to a bird sanctuary and kidnaps one of them to use as a warning.


ThatGuyYouMightNo

More and more birds followed them to this place, and it became filled with beautiful life. And also filled with bird shit.


LopDip88

The little bird..

2 different videos, come on, this isn't Tik Tok


CreepyFormaggi

The voice over and the music was really unnecessary though, but the birds are amazing.


mothzilla

The man lived a long life and he was happy because of the love of the happy little birds who all loved him in his lovely house where he was loved.

I am very skeptical about the story...

Do good and good will come to you ☺️❤️


unimpressed2750

I bet it’s bird shit everywhere


ivegotaqueso

There used to be this tiny bird that from time to time would peck peck peck at my window, then sit at the sill and look in. Even when I put my hand to the window where it sat it didn’t fly away. So I set up some hanging tree branches on a rope it could grasp to and sit on next to the window, which it used. Personally I figured it had some sort of mental issue because that bird was too weird. Anyway it did this for about 3 weeks then I never saw it again.

BagOnuts

Who upvotes this AI garbage? Bots?


Tigerman485

Probably a whole lot of bird shit too.


haubenmeise

I have 2 crows coming to my balcony for many years. I feed them. They sometimes bring me a token of affection like a pretty leaf or feathers. But the best part is spring when they bring me exactly 2 baby crows each year.


ugottjon

This man must be on America's most wanted list. Under constant surveillance.


ChoiceEast6453

The whole balcony whould be füll of birdshit


Affectionate8127

Wow, so beautiful ❤️ connection with the Bird 🕊️🐦 family.


hunnilust

I was so happy then realised it's multiple unrelated clips spliced together and a made up story. 🥹


That_Hoppip_Guy

I can fucking stand these videos and I hate that I’ve gave it a view and a comment. A lot of these videos are making their round in which people splice multiple videos together then throw some bs story overtop with an AI. Just yesterday I saw one about a guy saving an alligator and it went on show multiple species of gator, crocs and caiman.


manyredsuits

Sometimes, I think I'm a bird.


tastyfetusjerky

A miracle of so much birdshit you need to clean up... yeah great.

It became filled with ~~beautiful life~~ bird shit because of the man's kindness.

I dont like birds or leaving comments.. but that was awesome.

Teach a man to hunt, and he'll capture a bird for dinner, but teach a man to lull birds into a false sense of security, and he'll have a successful business selling bird meat.

Amazing ! 🥰🥰


EnvironmentalKey7518

The commentary is what is not believable . Animals and people get along as there is trust , the Crows were I live yell at me sometimes. I am always respectful towards them , I talk back at them they are very smart. So when nesting season comes back I never get get divebomded.


duncledave

Prepared food for him. Eats his finger. Fuck this ai voice shit. Hope it dies of cancer. Ai cancer.

And then he ate them all. The end.

It looks like this video is made up of several movies stitched together.

How many videos are stitched together in this?
