- [Liz] You don't want to miss this!
We have barrelling buffalo,
enraged elephants, broom riding birds,
and a dog who just loves their owner's new snowblower.
All this and more right here on World's Funniest Animals.
Welcome back to world's funniest animals.
If you're anything like us three, then you love
a good animal video.
I'm your host Elizabeth Stanton joined today
by my furry friends, Hank and Ruby, as well as our panelists
and our special guest Maz Jobrani.
Hey Maz.
- Hi Liz. How are ya?
- Thanks for joining us Maz.
A baby's first steps are something
every parent wants to catch on camera.
And in the meantime, it seems like they may have
caught some pretty hilarious footage of their dogs
interacting with their newborns in our segment: Baby Steps
Starting with standup comedian, Brian Cooper.
Hey Brian.
- Hey Liz.
How's it going?
- Did you have pets growing up?
- Of course.
- Well, let me know if you can relate to this clip.
- He does the same thing with grandpa's diapers.
- Next up we have actress Maiara Walsh.
- Hey Liz.
- Have you ever bitten off more than you can chew?
- I think I'm going to need more context on this one.
My guess is they ran out of pacifiers.
- Now we're joined by comedian Neel Ghosh
- Hey Liz
- I have a feeling you're going to love this next clip.
- Well, don't keep me waiting,
I have to see this.
This is the start of a beautiful relationship.
I can just tell.
- Now we're joined by singer and comedian, Mikalah Gordon.
- Hi Liz.
How's it going?
- This next clip comes from a proud mom
of both an adorable dog and a pretty cute baby too.
- (Exclaims)
This is the baby version of burpees.
- Yes, child feed me piece by piece.
- Cats are a total mystery box.
Sometimes they sleep all day.
Other times they run around for hours doing who knows what?
Let's explore the latter in our segment: Feline Freak-Outs
- This is me at a vending machine.
A hundred percent.
- Wait, come back.
Who's going to feed me?
- This owner just bought their cat a new toy and to
say it has his attention would be a huge understatement.
- Crazy part is that's not even a mirror.
They're twins separated at birth.
- You talking to me?
- Now let's see what our special guest is up to,
we have standup comedian
and actor, Maz Jobrani.
Hello Liz, it's Maz and Yasu.
They say don't work with animals or kids.
I've got my dog over here, licking peanut butter.
And my daughter's working the camera.
This ain't easy.
- Well, we appreciate you coming aboard.
What kind of dog is Yasu,
and how did you come up with that name?
- Yasu is a golden doodle, which is golden retriever
and a poodle mix.
Yasu in Japanese means peaceful.
And in Korean we found out it means beast.
And then we found out in Greek, it means hello.
So I say she's hello,
you peaceful beast.
- Yasu must be very cultured
with all these different influences.
- She is very friendly and very smart and very excited.
Are you excited?
- [Liz] We're visiting our feathered friends
in our segment: For the Birds.
Next on world's funniest animals.
- Birds are incredible as if flying wasn't enough.
You have parrots that can talk, hummingbirds
whose wings flap faster than we can see
or woodpeckers that can peck their way through a tree.
Not to mention those feathered folks have also
tricked us humans into feeding them daily
and taking care of their every need.
For that reason, this segment is For the Birds.
-Who's going for a ride? -He is!
-Wow, I see! He loves going for rides.
- Does this train and go anywhere but the kitchen?
- That's one way to trick a kid into cleaning up.
- Yeah, the commute to work is honestly the worst.
-Ready? You're ready?
Weee!
- This parrot is training for Hogwarts.
- Okay, one quick drink and then I'm out of here.
Okay. I don't have a problem.
You have a problem.
Okay. Maybe one more.
- I will never stop thinking
talking birds aren't creepy.
- Well what is important?
We were almost getting somewhere.
- Okay. These rooftop parties are getting out of control.
- Sometimes I feel like I like animals more than people.
These next clips show that the feeling isn't
always mutual in our segment: Fast and Furry-Ous
-He looks cross.
- Famous last words:
"He looks cross"
(SCREAMS) -Oh my God!
- You need to give this guard peanuts to get past this toll.
-Oh my God!
- Ah. Typical bison didn't even have his turn signal on.
- I said built Ram tough, not bison.
- Oh, that's cool that the drone has a pilot.
Well, not anymore.
- This bird really has it out for RC plane pilots.
- No, you didn't just witness a decapitation.
That was a toy pilot.
- [Liz] We have funny fails coming
up next on World's Funniest Animals
Growing up I would always try
and sneak some food off my plate
for my pets and they could never catch it in the air.
I always thought it was funny to see them completely
miss the food I've tossed.
These next animals have some similar mishaps
and some take it to a whole nother level.
Here's Funny Fails.
- It's like someone turns up the gravity by 50%
once he jumped.
- I guess he didn't want a snack that bad.
- That ramp is not up to code.
- Oh no. I meant to do that.
- Every time I go to hibachi, this happens.
- Cats are always jumping from anything they can climb up
on this next clip is an example of why maybe they shouldn't.
- Wind? Check.
- Velocity? Check.
- Distance? Confirmed.
- And away we go.
- Missed it by that much.
- So close yet so far.
- If there's one thing Hank and Ruby absolutely love,
it's driving around.
The wind in their fur,
the music blasting, not to mention a treat or two
from wherever we happen to stop for food.
Let's take a look at some animals who share the
same interest in our segment: Going For a Ride.
- Hey man, what's happening?
- Typical man. Didn't even ask for directions,
like the owner asked him to.
- He has a class B commercial driver's license.
I failed my permit test in high school three times.
- Now take me to the docks.
I have a deal with the fishermen.
- This next clip is impressive.
I can't even balance on one of those things.
- Dog walking of the future.
- This makes taking him on a walk way easier.
- We're back with Maz.
Now, I heard you have a pretty crazy story
about working with animals.
- A couple of years ago, I did a movie where we had to work
with camels and we were sitting on the camels.
Don't know if you ever worked with camels,
but when camels get tired, they just sit.
And when they sit, it's
like a roller coaster ride because you're on top.
And then they just go (imitates camel getting down)
and that's what happened.
And I almost had a heart attack and I survived.
- Camels can be difficult to work with.
I'm glad you made it through though.
- One time.
When I was on a TV show, there was a guy who had these dogs
and they were supposed to act like attack dogs.
They were the doberman pinschers.
When the director yelled action
the dogs just sat down and they didn't attack.
So they had to put peanut butter all
over the guy that was supposed to be attacked.
And that's how they got the dogs to act like attack dogs.
- Note to self: don't cover myself in peanut butter
around dobermans
Snow Day, coming up next on
World's Funniest Animals.
Growing up in Southern California
I was always jealous when I would see kids get to
skip school for the ever elusive snow day.
Which just happens to be the title of our next segment.
Let's take a look at what our favorite fur balls are up
to in the winter.
Snow Day.
- And that's the day he found out
snow is not nearly as fun as jumping in leaves.
- Okay. That wasn't a good idea.
Let's go inside.
- Is this one of those foam parties?
- He's supposed to be eating it so it doesn't land back
on the ground, but he's kind of showing off.
You got to pick one, either feed the dog or blow
out the driveway.
- Even when it's snowing,
this cat is going to get their daily workout in.
No days off.
- I've never known cats to be a huge fan of anything
but I think he is enjoying this.
You tell me.
- Hey guys, let's go.
It's a snow day.
- Everybody out.
Everybody back.
- Oh, it's freezing. Let's go back inside.
- Sometimes, it's nice to just find a spot on the couch
grab a blanket, curl up with the pets and watch TV.
Hopefully I've described your exact situation at home.
In any case, these next animals are all
about comfort in our segment: Under Cover.
- Oh, don't worry.
He's just taking a little catnap.
- This is me getting tucked in after a big dinner.
- For my next trick, I will turn this dog into a cat.
Voila!
- Rise and shine!
The sun is out.
The birds are chirping in your bed.
- I don't know about you, but two chirps from my alarm
and I'm wide awake.
- This next clip is a great way to wrap this segment up.
- Finally, a dog that puts himself to bed
- Is guac extra?
- Well, that's almost it for us
but in case you missed anything along the way,
here's a quick recap of all of our funniest moments.
We had frosted felines, driving dogs
comfortable cats, hovering hummingbirds, dangerous ducks,
phonetic parakeets, and a baby
hand delivering food to his dog.
Thanks so much to our panel
and to our special guest Maz Jobrani.
- Bye Liz, thanks for having us.
- And thank you for tuning in.
I'm Elizabeth Stanton
and we'll see you next time on World's Funniest Animals.
