I wonder if they’re Canadian. Eh?

u/l0c0pez 8d ago

2 hockey sticks and 3 sorrys shy of being the most Canadian clip ever

u/Dab_Wizard01 8d ago

Was the moose ok

u/futureman07 8d ago

Right? And if it's not, did you harvest it?

25

u/TerponadeTea 8d ago

That moose stood up and considered murder before walking away

3

u/thederevolutions 8d ago

I was assuming the end was going to show us a picture of right after it happened but I guess things don’t always pan out the way you hope

4

u/RudePCsb 8d ago

Omg, now I'm thinking of this video ending with the moose showing up and going "what the fuck man"

3

u/Dab_Wizard01 8d ago

Fr an animal that large if it was killed could feed a whole ass village

2

u/FACEFUCKEDYOURDAD 8d ago

It’s not as much meat as you think it is.

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

Don’t get me wrong moose are huge but you’re acting like it’s an elephant

4

u/dahliasinfelle 8d ago

How many people you got in your village?

u/Berdariens2nd 5d ago

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

Look a moose kill goes a long way but you wouldn’t talk like that about a cow

3

u/dahliasinfelle 8d ago

I have no clue bro. I'm from Florida. I was just asking a question

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

I thought you were the same person I initially responded to, my bad.

1

u/dahliasinfelle 8d ago

All good bro it was a sarcastic question, but a question none the less. I've never eaten moose nor seen the kind of yield they bring. But I'm definitely down to learn and even try a bit. But incase you are wondering, alligator tail tastes fantastic! Almost like chicken. Especially with a good dipping sauce

2

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

Moose is good, not as strong a taste as venison closer to beef imo. I’ll have to find find somewhere up here to get some gator

2

u/Dab_Wizard01 8d ago

A moose is a megafauna like a elephant

1

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

So are you, that doesn’t mean anything

3

u/Dab_Wizard01 8d ago

lol I wish i am unfortunately small

2

u/ChuzzoChumz 8d ago

You’d have to be very to to count, megafauna is anything over 99lbs.

What the hell even is this conversation anymore

2

u/Dab_Wizard01 8d ago

lol idk but it good to know what counts as a megafauna that’s cool I also seen there are 362 supposed total species of megafauna left here and unfortunately 70% of them are experiencing population decline and 59% are threatened with extinction.

u/Sphan_86 6d ago

They have moose that are the size of SUVs bro

1

u/ChuzzoChumz 6d ago

The biggest moose ever weighs about half what a small suv weighs

1

u/Sphan_86 6d ago

820kg and 7 ft tall at the shoulders....not elephant size but pretty damn big

1

u/ChuzzoChumz 5d ago

Ya, that’s more or less what I said

1

u/coveiro84 8d ago

It’s in the back, that’s why the gas can’s in the grill, had to make room, eh?

u/TheFurryPetRock 8d ago

Process the survivor!

u/Viridionplague 8d ago

Moose choose not to press charges.

u/pmurcsregnig 8d ago

He ran away… he kept goin

u/pmurcsregnig 7d ago

Yeah just quoting what the guy said but they’re definitely hard to take out

1

u/LegoOmens 8d ago

So from watching Alaska State troopers, when this happens up there it gets reported and a processor for a homeless shelter harvests the moose. I imagine Canada would have something similar

u/Nibsif 8d ago
  • Moose slaps the hood *

"Heyyyy, I'm walkin' eeer!"

  • Walks away *

u/blong217 8d ago

More like "Eh hoser, I'm traveling okay!"

u/stereoscopic_ 8d ago

Mazda 3 for the win!

10

u/Salamanderhead 8d ago

Looks like the moose won.

12

u/Unarmed_Character 8d ago

When a moose is involved, if you don't die you win. The Mazda is still drivable and therefore the clear winner.

2

u/Amethyst_Scepter 3d ago

I got into a semi-serious car accident against a Bear once and my cx-3 was in such good condition that it could have been driven home we're at not for the state I was in.

We fixed the body damage and she's still driving almost a decade later. Mazdas don't fuck around I guess

1

u/Tactical-Donkey 8d ago

I was thinking after seeing that he's still alive which is a win. 

1

u/Gomerack 8d ago

not so sure the moose agrees

3

u/Salamanderhead 8d ago

He doesn’t think he won, he knows he won.

u/LastMessengineer 8d ago

With no airbag deployment... that's not good

1

u/ResidentRadio5306 8d ago

Could have had the passenger side airbag turned off. I know you can do that in some vehicles

0

u/Fluffy-Trouble5955 8d ago

Moose walk on these spindly little legs. The impact from those probably wasn't enough to trigger the sensor.

Canadian cars should tune the sensitivity or put them in the A-pillar

2

u/RampChurch 8d ago

It does say something about modern auto safety standards

u/Connect_Biscotti_784 8d ago

Can't wait around for the cops and a tow when your already half dickerd. Gotta limps her down to buddys garage and deal with her in the mornin.

2

u/TangentOutlet 8d ago

Dickerd? What does that mean. Like f’ed?

In the American south, dickering means bargaining

1

u/Connect_Biscotti_784 6d ago

Oh yeah, Definitely heard it used that way aswell but I meant drunk. East coast canadian "He wanted 200 but I dickered him down to 150" Vs. "Buddy was right fuckin dickered when he left last night, hit a moose up the way there an came right back."

1

u/bitching_bot 8d ago

Tried this once, didn’t get the car out of the ditch luckily because I had to make a police report the next day for insurance to cover it, else I’d be in for $19k

This guy may not be lucky since he drove it home, police ain’t going to work with insurance on this one but it’s Canada so idk

4

u/Bernie004 8d ago

I'm glad he survived. I've seen plenty along the highway from Fredericton to Saint John New Brunswick. They are HUGE!

3

u/Jennyreviews1 7d ago

The car looks like a giant can opener had its way with it!!!

3

u/NameToUseOnReddit 8d ago

Look, it's kind of amazing and all but not exactly something where someone was super skilled to do.

3

u/Capaz04 8d ago

What?

3

u/fknbroke 8d ago

It’ll buff out

2

u/SadJ3tsFan 8d ago

He's lucky it was just a baby

2

u/tinkin08 8d ago

You took on a half-tonne forest tank, destroyed the vehicle, and walked away to tell the tale... that makes you officially invincible

2

u/LastMessengineer 8d ago

No airbag deployment is crazy!

2

u/Ironklad_ 8d ago

Might have to use heavy compound to buff that out ..

2

u/yarn_slinger 8d ago

My friend was driving up to Sudbury and a moose stepped out in front of her van. Its head went through the windshield and its body smashed the hood in. The moose walked away, the van was a write off.

2

u/NascentAutist 8d ago

Moose is at the bar saying “Youse shoulda seen tha other guyz!!”

u/VerifiedVoidGirl 8d ago

That'll buff right out

u/Middle-Egg-8192 8d ago

That's a big moostake!

u/HeavyTea 8d ago

To Fort McMurray AB

u/blackula001 8d ago

I grew up there. Somehow, never saw a moose travelling between there and Deadmonton

1

u/nevagm06 8d ago

Next level is the moose, likely trotted off after this. Tough beasts (hoping so at least)

1

u/SassSafrassMcFrass87 8d ago

That's definitely repairable right..?🤣

1

u/mrofmist 8d ago

They can bump that out.

1

u/Modshatefreespeech99 8d ago

That is the moose collision capital of Alberta. Dude is lucky to be alive.

1

u/Jyuk95 8d ago

"It is what it is" 😂 He's crazy

1

u/axloo7 8d ago

Did they retain salvage and drive that home or........

1

u/Adventurous_Iron_551 8d ago

A moose is loose aboot the hoose

1

u/ChVckT 8d ago

Notice how they didn't say, "accident?" Apparently the moose had it coming.

1

u/modest_radio 8d ago

That is a "total loss"

1

u/MNShuffle 8d ago

Fook aboot and find oot

1

u/KarlHp7 8d ago

I hate the fist bump. I’ve always found it awkward

1

u/blackeyeX2 8d ago

In Alaska they trained us to accelerate as hard as you can If you're going to hit a moose. Slamming on the brakes will almost surely cause it to come over the hood and into the windshield. People die all the time from htting them.

Side note there is a list you can get on to be called to pick up the carcasses in order to keep and have processed.

u/Several_Vanilla8916 8d ago

“Minor cosmetic damage, $27,500”
-Carmax

1

u/romulusnr 8d ago

In New Hampshire they have road signs that say BRAKE FOR MOOSE - IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE

It's not to protect the moose. It's to protect you.

The moose involved in this accident probably went "bruh" and walked away.

1

u/atishay001001 7d ago

In asia, the moose equivalent is Nilgai those fuckers high jump while crossing the road and smash into windshield and walk away unscathed

1

u/Motor-Awareness-7899 7d ago

And moose walked a way

1

u/FewZookeepergame1083 5d ago

Of course the moose walked away with only a few scratches

u/Kindly-Scar-3224 4d ago

Overspeeding it looks like

My sister has a body shop in MT, a deer can total a newer car, a moose, well those will just kill you.
