Top 10 Animals That Love Being High — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00let's get the easy ones out of the way
2. 0:01and slowly work our way up to the worst
3. 0:03Defenders on the list number 10 cats
4. 0:06this one is more of a misconception
5. 0:08rather than an animal actually abusing a
6. 0:10substance if you have a cat then you've
7. 0:12more than likely tried giving them
8. 0:13nepetec kataria or better known as
9. 0:15catnip now this one is not really a drug
10. 0:17like the others on the list and is
11. 0:19actually an herb that is very closely
12. 0:21related to Mint but it does contain a
13. 0:23compound called nepotalactone which can
14. 0:25have a mild and temporary stimulant
15. 0:27effect on some cats and that's the thing
16. 0:29with catnip some cats are affected by it
17. 0:31and will go absolutely crazy for It
18. 0:34While others just remind you that you
19. 0:35cannot buy their love and they still
20. 0:37don't want anything to do with you now
21. 0:39catnip has many different effects on
22. 0:41cats but here are the most common ones
23. 0:43they will roll around in it they will
24. 0:45become very hyper after they ingest it
25. 0:47or they might just become very relaxed
26. 0:49number nine Dolphins this is another
27. 0:52common one that most people have
28. 0:53probably heard of everybody loves
29. 0:55telling the story when they themselves
30. 0:56are under the influence so let's just
31. 0:58get this one out of the way yes it's
32. 1:00true dolphins are the real menaces of
33. 1:02the ocean and are despicable losers who
34. 1:04love to get high
35. 1:06they do this by first surrounding a
36. 1:08puffer fish and proceeding to take turns
37. 1:10lightly biting on it not only will they
38. 1:12nudge and bite the puffer fish the pot
39. 1:14of dolphins will take it a step further
40. 1:16by launching him out of the water and
41. 1:17playing catch with him making sure that
42. 1:19that puffer fish is completely
43. 1:20traumatized for the rest of its
44. 1:22existence
45. 1:23and as you can imagine this causes the
46. 1:25puffer to go into a full Panic
47. 1:27triggering its defense mechanism
48. 1:29releasing a toxic poison called
49. 1:31tetrodotoxin which is one of the most
50. 1:33deadly poisons in the world to put it
51. 1:35into perspective one puffer fish has
52. 1:36enough poison to kill 30 adult humans or
53. 1:39about 15 average size Americans now even
54. 1:43though it's deadly dolphins have learned
55. 1:44exactly how much of the poison they can
56. 1:46tolerate without dying they've actually
57. 1:48been filmed passing the puffer around
58. 1:50for 20 to 30 minutes at a time before
59. 1:52letting it swim off the effects that the
60. 1:54poison has on the Dolphins is pretty
61. 1:56interesting they seem to go into a
62. 1:58euphoric state where they become very
63. 2:00calm and relaxed even being mesmerized
64. 2:03and completely fascinated by their own
65. 2:05reflection on the surface of the water
66. 2:07number eight Birds okay now we're
67. 2:10getting to the ones that most people
68. 2:11have not heard of but have probably seen
69. 2:13firsthand have you ever come across a
70. 2:15dead bird that crashed into a window or
71. 2:17building and you sit there wondering how
72. 2:19is it possible that it had unlimited
73. 2:21airspace to fly around in and and yet
74. 2:24still managed to crash well the truth is
75. 2:26that it was probably flying Under the
76. 2:28Influence this usually happens after the
77. 2:30first Frost which causes fruits and
78. 2:32berries to ferment producing ethanol a
79. 2:35type of alcohol and of course Birds know
80. 2:37this they will then proceed to eat as
81. 2:39much of the fermented fruit or berries
82. 2:41as they can to get completely hammered
83. 2:44and in certain parts of the world bird
84. 2:45alcoholism is on the rise just look at
85. 2:48Yukon Canada where they have built a
86. 2:50sanctuary for birds that have had too
87. 2:52much of the booze which is basically a
88. 2:54drunk tank for Birds here they are
89. 2:56placed in tiny cages until they sober up
90. 2:59but as soon as they do they are released
91. 3:01back into the wild where they can
92. 3:02continue boozing so next time you see a
93. 3:05bird that isn't flying straight just
94. 3:06remember he's probably a degenerate good
95. 3:08for nothing alcoholic number seven honey
96. 3:11bees this one is similar to number eight
97. 3:13as most people probably won't know this
98. 3:15one but once you hear about it you'll
99. 3:17realize that you've come across it at
100. 3:19one point in your life now this one is a
101. 3:21little more violent and doesn't have the
102. 3:23ending that you would find at a massage
103. 3:24parlor have you ever come across a
104. 3:26honeybee that's crawling on the floor
105. 3:28and doesn't seem to want to fly as a kid
106. 3:30I used to think that this was because
107. 3:32the bee had recently stung someone and
108. 3:34is now dying a horrible and painfully
109. 3:36slow death
110. 3:38but now as an adult I am way more
111. 3:40informed now when I come across a
112. 3:42crawling bee I now know that it's either
113. 3:44completely blocked out drunk or dying a
114. 3:47horrible and painfully slow death
115. 3:49you see when the temperatures rise the
116. 3:51nectar implants can become fermented and
117. 3:54you guessed it it becomes alcohol so
118. 3:56when bees go to collect pollen from the
119. 3:58plant and drink some of that sweet
120. 3:59fermented nectar they get completely
121. 4:02drunk and this is when you might find a
122. 4:04bee that has lost all control of its
123. 4:06sense of direction and motor skills now
124. 4:08the sad part is if by some miracle the
125. 4:11bee manages to return back to its hive
126. 4:13it will have to go through the guard
127. 4:15bees think of these guys as the bouncers
128. 4:17of the hive but a lot more violent
129. 4:19aggressive and heartless if a drunk Bee
130. 4:21shows up to the hive one of two things
131. 4:24will happen he will either get a
132. 4:26lifetime ban from The Hive or get his
133. 4:28arms torn off Wings torn off legs torn
134. 4:30off and Tennis torn off and eyes torn
135. 4:32out and die a horrible and painfully
136. 4:34slow death
137. 4:36but don't worry it's all done for the
138. 4:38sake of the colony since fermented
139. 4:40nectar in the hive can cause the entire
140. 4:42colony to collapse number six fruit
141. 4:45flies researchers at a San Francisco
142. 4:48University have found that male fruit
143. 4:49flies don't handle rejection very well
144. 4:52the research shows that when male fruit
145. 4:54flies are rejected by a potential
146. 4:56partner they actually seek out alcohol
147. 4:59who would have thought that I had so
148. 5:01much in common with the fly
149. 5:03number five vervet monkeys now this is
150. 5:06the last animal on the list that belongs
151. 5:07in an AAA meeting and the reason why
152. 5:10they rank so high on the list is simply
153. 5:11because they're not just alcoholics but
154. 5:14they are outright disgusting criminals
155. 5:16when these monkeys can't get their fix
156. 5:18from fermented fruit they turn to a life
157. 5:20of crime stealing alcohol from tourists
158. 5:23and they're damn good at it they
159. 5:25patiently wait in the shadows for the
160. 5:26perfect opportunity and the moment a
161. 5:28person sets their drink down will be
162. 5:30their first mistake because as soon as
163. 5:32you look away it's already too late the
164. 5:35monkey will have its greasy little hands
165. 5:36on it and already slurping the alcohol
166. 5:38down they do have some of the coolest
167. 5:40pictures though so I'll give them that
168. 5:42these monkeys are such a problem that
169. 5:44the Caribbean island of Saint Martin has
170. 5:47recently passed a bill that would allow
171. 5:48them to exterminate all the monkeys
172. 5:50apparently all 450 of them you know as
173. 5:54soon as I said that last part I realized
174. 5:55that I probably could have left that
175. 5:57part out number four the black lemur now
176. 6:00we're moving on from puffer fish and
177. 6:02alcohol and moving onto the hard stuff
178. 6:04okay to be fair puffer fish is pretty
179. 6:06insane but a lot of people already knew
180. 6:08that one so I put that at the top of the
181. 6:09list but let's move on starting off with
182. 6:11the black lemur who would have thought
183. 6:13that these cute animals from the island
184. 6:14of Madagascar would turn out to be such
185. 6:16despicable and heinous creatures
186. 6:20the black lemur has a diet primarily
187. 6:22made up of fruit but on occasion it does
188. 6:25love to consume a toxic combination of
189. 6:27chemicals which include cyanide it's
190. 6:29able to consume this when it finds a
191. 6:31millipede and begins to lightly chew on
192. 6:33it this causes the millipede to curl up
193. 6:35and release a toxic chemical that is
194. 6:37meant to deter animals from eating it
195. 6:39but to the Lemur this chemical just
196. 6:41signals to the boys that they're in for
197. 6:43a wild night
198. 6:45unlike the others on the list there is
199. 6:46actually one health benefit for getting
200. 6:48their hands on this dangerous Toxin and
201. 6:50after just one hit from the millipede
202. 6:52the Lemur begins to drool uncontrollably
203. 6:54they then begin to rub the saliva and
204. 6:57toxins all over their body to protect
205. 6:59themselves from mosquitoes which carry
206. 7:01malaria but don't think it's all
207. 7:03business the Lemurs continue to take
208. 7:05hits from the centipede consuming more
209. 7:07and more of the toxin until they are
210. 7:09completely obliterated it reaches the
211. 7:12point that they are so high that the
212. 7:14only option left is to sleep it off
213. 7:16number three reindeer remember that
214. 7:19little red mushroom from the Mario games
215. 7:21as I'm sure you've heard its real name
216. 7:23is Amanita muscaria and it's insanely
217. 7:26toxic and brings on some very intense
218. 7:28hallucinations but this doesn't seem to
219. 7:30matter to the reindeer of Siberia Russia
220. 7:32which actually go to Great Lengths to
221. 7:34seek it out and consume it once it's
222. 7:36ingested and the effects kick in they
223. 7:38begin to act in a very strange way they
224. 7:40end up running around aimlessly and
225. 7:42begin making strange noises but the
226. 7:44reason the reindeer is so high on the
227. 7:46list is simply because they are a bad
228. 7:48influence on others apparently humans
229. 7:50watch them eat the magic mushrooms and
230. 7:52they made it look so fun that we just
231. 7:54had to try it for ourselves some people
232. 7:57got incredibly high and began to have
233. 7:59some of the most intense and Vivid
234. 8:01hallucinations While others died
235. 8:05and instead of saying you know what we
236. 8:07took a nail on this one boys and we
237. 8:08should probably avoid these mushrooms
238. 8:10from here on out no someone had the
239. 8:13brilliant idea of consuming the urine of
240. 8:15the reindeer instead since he believed
241. 8:17that the urine would sterilize the
242. 8:19toxins but keep the effects of the
243. 8:21mushrooms intact and he was right and
244. 8:24after that humans and reindeers could go
245. 8:26on wild hallucinogenic trips together
246. 8:28some people even believe that this is
247. 8:30how the story of Santa Claus was created
248. 8:31this theory is called the magic mushroom
249. 8:34Christmas Theory number two Jaguars I
250. 8:37guess even an apex predator needs a
251. 8:39break from killing and ripping other
252. 8:40animals apart they do this by seeking
253. 8:43out the yage vine which is one of the
254. 8:45major ingredients when creating
255. 8:46Ayahuasca arguably the strongest
256. 8:48hallucination drug on Earth and once the
257. 8:50cat consumes it and the effects kick in
258. 8:52they begin to turn into a big Goofy
259. 8:54intoxicated kitten a clip from BBC
260. 8:56caught this all on tape a few years ago
261. 8:58and it's pretty interesting to watch the
262. 9:00native people of the Amazon claim that
263. 9:02the Jaguars consumed this drug since it
264. 9:04heightens their senses improving their
265. 9:06ability to hunt but they're in denial
266. 9:08the cat simply does it to discover
267. 9:09things about the universe that he would
268. 9:11otherwise not know like how Willy Wonka
269. 9:13was a serial killer similar to jigsaw
270. 9:14but instead of doing his experiments on
271. 9:16adults he would do them on children and
272. 9:17nobody ever batted an eye number one
273. 9:20parrots now this one had to go last due
274. 9:23to the severity of the situation in
275. 9:25Northern India these birds are so
276. 9:27addicted to Opium that the farmers have
277. 9:28reported taking massive losses in
278. 9:30Revenue due to these birds alone these
279. 9:32farmers who have special permission to
280. 9:34grow the plant from a distance personal
281. 9:35companies have tried everything under
282. 9:37the sun to stop these birds from eating
283. 9:39their plants and it's not uncommon to
284. 9:41see a parrot Fly Away with an entire
285. 9:43opium pod to himself apparently a single
286. 9:46parrot will come down and take a bite of
287. 9:48the Opium milk 30 to 40 times a day and
288. 9:51the sad part is since opium is a hard
289. 9:53drug with very real consequences to
290. 9:54health the moment the parrots become
291. 9:56addicted to it they are as good as dead
292. 9:59because as soon as the farmers harvest
293. 10:01the plant the birds are left with such
294. 10:03horrible withdrawals that it ends up
295. 10:05costing them their lives and parrots
296. 10:07falling from trees and electrical lines
297. 10:09becomes a common occurrence but it
298. 10:12doesn't stop there in the following year
299. 10:14once the Farmers plant the next batch of
300. 10:16opium the vicious cycle starts all over
301. 10:18again like a never-ending nightmare
