Vladimus44 says:

No, that would be you.

jikkojokki says:

This bird lives in the forest/jungle yet it often hears car alarms…

hello45man says:

Ha! That was rather funny! Please do tell me another one! Maybe about how pi is actually 1.6424677339732868304594 instead of what it actually is!

aztek284 says:

I love BBC shows like this=)

metzbot says:

Funnily enough, dubstep producers have been listening to this bird. Hatcha and Lost – Al Barsha.

zeowww says:

saw one of these in the wild today … quite a sight

Caramilk141 says:

Hi… I’m a university student in Biology. My Professor, who is originally from Australia, has shown us this exact video in class. He himself, has seen these birds in person. Yes, many things on the internet are fake, but this is not one of them. Good try though.

xAUSTYx says:

Chainsaw imitation = mind blown

ImJoeToo says:

I always thought this was fake, until I saw some more lyrebird vids. LOL! This thing is for real!

ajonbass says:

So according to you, BBC Earth lie and fabricate to entertain people or “sheep” as you say. Are you bit deluded? Also the second sentence came from australian-animals. net

xpynuker says:

Shutup and go back to your cave

Peta4241 says:

Mate, I’m Australian, I have seen and heard a lyre bird in real life and this video is not fake.

Rampant Redneck says:

That is beauty at it’s finest.

theblogperson says:

One more thing- as a person who’s heard a kookaburra call in real life, the lyre bird sounds remarkably like that bird.

theblogperson says:

Someone should sing rap near them and see if they can repeat the curses and then let it loose close to unsuspecting people and see what happens

ajonbass says:

No… If you search “lyre bird” you will find it is not fake, “They are most notable for their superb ability to mimic natural and artificial sounds from their environment” and “Car noises, chainsaws, dogs and other noises are no problem for this excellent imitator” Also Why on earth would the BBC discredit itself by faking this, it would make no sense.

Abramisen says:

I’m already watching it and it’s obviously fake.

GoobyGooRS says:

nek minnut brought me here

ajonbass says:

This isn’t fake. go look it up.

papercut32 says:

The sound before the chainsaw sounds like a laser gun or something.

XxXloltasticXxX says:

It should copy another lyre bird.

Abramisen says:

Yeah, the bird can imitate but this is obviously fake. -__-

“I’m Attenborough’s neice”
If it wasn’t clear enough that you’re trolling…
Also it’s niece not “neice”. Triple fail for you.

Quiethoof says:

Come upon your wings.

aztecwarriorize says:

nicolasariana says:
