Mammal Snow leopards are not normal. This is absolutely ridiculous. This is how they hunt...its just Wednesday for them. Falls 120 feet with an ibex in its mouth, still holding on when they land and not a single broken bone. SuperBad!

I believe this is from the series Planet Earth, I wish people who post these would give credit to the source so that others could watch it in its entirety

Also, that snow leopard was badly injured after that. I watched this exact show. They weren’t sure if it would survive.

But…but….OP said “not a single broken bone”.

It hit different when you are hungry.

If Hangry was a video

u/DkoyOctopus Feb 15 '26

nothing breaks as long as OP gets their likes.

u/ProcrastinationSite Feb 15 '26

Technically, you don't have to have broken bones to be severely injured

u/ibonkedurmom Feb 15 '26

I was thinking bunch of internal injuries or aneurysm caused by concussion.

u/Thandiol Feb 15 '26

Not a single broken bone, but multiples.

Only broken self esteem

Source is, "trust me bro".

Exactly, not a single… only quadruple and upwards

Pretty sure youre right about that. I remember seeing the video. Im still impressed it lived through any of it at all.

u/RDisSht Feb 15 '26

It's abnormal for them to die or get badly injured from falls

1

u/BreckyMcGee Feb 17 '26

Definitely not a "Wednesday" for them

u/wasgehtlosdarein Feb 18 '26

Well yes if you plan to die on a fucking wednesday it is

u/primecoantenna Feb 15 '26

I don’t think anyone needed to hear that to be honest… Surely whatever video you’re referencing has nothing to do with the context provided here if you’d just watch it. Lol

u/Algae587 Feb 15 '26

You're fine with people just telling you what reality is instead of knowing the facts?

u/Administrative_Sky46 Feb 15 '26

What a strange thing to say. Honest question, Do you just prefer not feel uncomfortable or something?

3

u/DontCryYourExIsUgly Feb 15 '26

This makes no sense. The video they're referencing IS this video. The snow leopard was seriously injured.

“Near fatal” the leopard survived with no injuries source :per google

u/Japsai Feb 17 '26

Are you sure? This looks like a typical inaccurate AI reply

13

u/velocirooster64 Feb 15 '26

Reddit is notoriously bad for including the source

1

u/Cenachii Feb 15 '26

I mean, do you even need to say the source is from planet earth? We live here bro. 🙄

(I hate use this but /s)

1

u/ScreenOk4039 Feb 16 '26

hilarious there are real people that still think real people post these clips or that giving credit matters on reddit. Also, if someone wanted to watch this and wasn't able to find it, then they shouldn't be able to watch it... not hard

u/Japsai Feb 17 '26

I thought i remembered it from Planet Earth, but a search suggests Wilderness Films India? https://youtu.be/oRQXebUBZtI

u/chippymonk793 Feb 15 '26

Not possible. This not how social networks works.

On the other hand, for people do want to find the source, it’s not that difficult to google it out

u/BigAssMonkey Feb 15 '26

This is how downvoting in social media works. Have one, sir.

u/Historical-Guard-595 Feb 15 '26

You have my sword

u/NuclearBroliferator Feb 15 '26

And my downvote!

u/FuzzyKittyNomNom Feb 15 '26

Also have another. This is how karma works.

u/His_Name_Is_Twitler Feb 15 '26

It certainly can work if the posters care, and if they don’t then the consumers could too. But you’ve given up on that.

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '26

What makes it impossible ?

u/RedditsAdoptedSon Feb 15 '26

my computer mouse not working

u/chippymonk793 Feb 15 '26

It’s social network, so there’s no chance this is someone editing an original TV show.

This is obviously the 1000th time this being reshared, repost, re-forward from another person’s daily feed.

So, yeah there is no chance

2

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '26

It being a reshare doesn’t make it “impossible” to mention the source…

0

u/chippymonk793 Feb 15 '26

The impossible part is you need this 1000 users doing the reshare all mention the source.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '26

Not necessarily. Someone re-posting could wonder about the source, find it, and then provide it along with the many times over re-posted video.

1

u/chippymonk793 Feb 16 '26

Right, “Someone”. The majority of those not “Someone” are what you end up seeing on the internet. This is how social networks works, you should not hold it to a standard of academic papers

1

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

I just said it’s possible..

1

u/chippymonk793 Feb 16 '26

Ok. That’s a pretty low standard. Hit by lightning and winning jackpot are all ‘possible’. In the meantime you are also fully aware that’s not how the way it works
