its like marine biology Jackass

i love this guy 60% of every video is him rolling around on the floor screaming while his camera guy goes “hey….. u ok?” then 5 minutes later he gets up and is like “ok folks, there u have it, the Satan DeathRay Fire Monster actually does cause pain when it bites u. science is great”

To be fair, this is actually a really good way of getting kids to realize that these animals really are dangerous, and he goes through the first aid either on the same video or in a follow up video (if it’s something complicated). IIRC, the whole reason he started doing videos like this was because while he was in Montana or something he saw a lot of Facebook posts about people whose dogs had gotten too close to a porcupine and they didn’t know how to remove the quills, so he (naturally) went into the woods, found a porcupine, quilled himself and filmed himself taking the quills out and explaining what he was doing.

He’s still fucking insane, but, you know, it’s for a good cause

He’s living his best life, his job is getting hurt on camera and educating others on how to be safe. And he clearly loves his job.

The rightful heir to the throne Steve Irwin left.

theres this guy on youtube who just gets stung by increasingly deadly/painful insects and the videos are like 5 minutes of him getting psyched up to sting himself and then 10 minutes of him lying on the ground shrieking in agony

His name is Coyote Petersen and he is like what if your nerdy cub scouts leader made a youtube channel where he does nothing but have himself get bitten by gators and stung by insects for views in the hopes it will make people like him.

I like him a lot.

This is the Ocelot Friend?!

this guy is an irl Palahniuk protagonist

Oh my god I love him. Ocelot Friend (Coyote Peterson) is the BEST

He once climbed a tree to get a coconut, reached for it, then joyfully shouted “I caught an iguana!  I’m putting it in my pocket!”

He then DOES SO and finishes collecting coconuts.  He named the iguana Wilson and, upon releasing him, did an EXCELLENT recreation of the “Wilson floats away” scene from Castaway.

He gets stung/bitten/injured intentionally to show what basic first aid can be done, and accidental injuries are also used as teachable moments.  As far as the extremely painful stings went, he was challenged to get stung by a bullet ant but decided to work his way up the insect pain index scale first so he had some idea of how bad it was going to be.  He also insisted on catching each insect first.  For the tarantula hawk, he caught it but also fell into a cactus while doing so, and then used that as a teaching moment of what to do when you fall into a fucking cactus.

His camera guys are the best, too.  They do much breaking of the fourth wall and make snarky comments periodically.  They provide much first aid for some reason.

Coyote is basically what you get if Steve Irwin and a golden retriever had a baby.

Reblogging primarily because I’ll never meet a cooler concept than a guy named Ocelot Friend.
