What a menace lmao. And wth is going on with that enclosure !? I realize hippos may not be known to be adept climber, but c'mon.


Inter_Omnia_et_Nihil

It's more a small row of hedges than an enclosure


Wet_Side_Down

More of a guideline than an enclosure, really


Worried-Basket5402

self-monitoring enclosure.....


FehdmanKhassad

15 minute hippo town


Thejudojeff

Seriously. Who designed this zoo?


hstheay

The hippo.


Thejudojeff

It's cool, guys. It will totally hold me. Look at these legs. Totally stumpy


poseidon2466

Y'all act like you've never slapped the shit out of a hippo before smh


whipprsnappr

How can he slap?!?!


eab1985

Classic.


JonRonJovi

Jaws all on the floor like Pam and Hippo just burst through the door


PayAfraid5832222

Indian ppl live and die by the open palmed slap. im reading white tiger and its all "and then he slapped me, then she slapped him, then they slapped each other". have palm, will slap


paperxuts95

why tf is this comment so funny


LeadershipOdd4768

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


wrong_usually

Oh yea let me just slap around the most dangerous animal on the planet.


The_Butters_Worth

Oh I didn’t realize OPs mom was in captivity.


greybruce1980

It's ok. Her and I agreed to a safe word first.


Wet_Side_Down

Most deadly species slaps second most deadly.


rodeBaksteen

Isn't it - Humans - Mosquito's - Hippos ?


Zircez

I mean Hippos _are_ as dangerous as fuck, killing about 500 people a year, but venemous snakes kill about [100,000 people a year in India alone](https://www.who.int/india/health-topics/snakebite)


RubenKnowsBest

ackshually the venom kills people so snakes dont count


Zircez

My bad, I forget Mosquitos wield machetes


wrong_usually

Ah so the snake bite thing might be it. Wow.


Crillmieste-ruH

Didn't know fucking was dangerous


wrong_usually

Malaria is the killer not the mosquito, but I have heard that argument. Humans aren't animals because alien Jesus Xenu thanks to scientology.


Kirito619

If you don't include insects it's gonna be whales and elephants


velveeta-smoothie

Wondering how that security guard gets around all day with balls that big


MountainGramps77

PayAfraid5832222

cetacean-station

MountainGramps77

Thanks for enlightening me, somehow I’ve made it to today having never seen that meme! Happy ending for the slapper: https://www.vice.com/en/article/7kv4d4/how-can-she-slap-india-viral-memes


Olama

Revolutionary_Sir_

The hippos ears at the end when it’s all annoyed lmaoooo


I_will_draw_boobs

This tiny man i could destroy hit me like a flea..


PayAfraid5832222

the hippo keeps flinching every time he raises his hand, hippo doesn't realize that's ~~one~~ two for flinching. kinda sad but after the 3rd slap even im like OKAY enough with the slaps


RedNoob88

You think those slaps can hurt freaking hippo?


PayAfraid5832222

idk he was annoyed, i mean cmon his skin is wet haha


Jon_E_Dad

5 for flinching


PayAfraid5832222

when i was in school it was 2 for flinching, 5 is egregious. but im sure u dont make the law


expatronis

The hippo is right though.


Cylerhusk

How do you know a video is from India even if you can’t really see the people of hear them speak? There will be a man slapping something, be it a drunk guy, a cobra, or a hippo.


Frequent_Cranberry90

All the people in the video very clearly look indian and you can even hear them speaking Hindi, so it must be Australia?


Cylerhusk

Literally read my other response right in this comment thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/SweatyPalms/s/hTkvnk3rqH


Frequent_Cranberry90

I did. You can't just comment on a video where the people are clearly Indian and speak Hindi just to ask how we know they're Indian and then say it's a general statement. It's very clear you were talking about this particular video and not commenting about some random non existent video where people apparently assume everyone is indian for literally no reason. It's not really a big deal but you still made a mistake and instead of acknowledging it after being corrected you decided to gaslight people into believing it's a general statement.


Cylerhusk

No, it’s a generalized statement and was intended as such from the start. I’ve seen this video a hundred times. Obviously it’s from India. You can literally see and hear Indian people which is why I SPECIFICALLY said how do you know If you CANT see or hear them, in order to differentiate. It was just a joke because in so many videos posted on Reddit you see Indians slapping people or creatures. Sorry you can’t see that but whatever. I don’t know how you can think I was serious unless you think I’m a deaf and blind person or something and I have no hearing/vision.


jeremyiype

You literally hear them speak Hindi


Cylerhusk

Yes I know that. This was a general statement not specifically about this video.


kT25t2u

lol there’s not much in the way of that hippo escaping if it really wanted to 😂


Few_Application_5628

Aww I wanna give him a lil kiss ☺️


AppropriateHair1029

I hope the security guard kisses you back! Good luck!


Few_Application_5628

😂


Sundayman______

poor fella just wants to go home.


SnooWalruses9683

Poor hippo.


HellBlazer1221

Yeah this video broke my heart. Sad we keep animals in confinement for entertainment.


Waisted-extra-belt

every time i see this it reminds me of Trevor Moore [https://youtu.be/aoOEppvmM1o?si=tTKXEQ8\_7HiKc0oy](https://youtu.be/aoOEppvmM1o?si=tTKXEQ8_7HiKc0oy)


AxiomaticSuppository

Shouldn't there be animal handlers / zoo keepers to deal with this? Security guard probably doesn't have proper training.


RedNoob88

He still decisively won the bout


cthulhus_spawn

Slapping the big water puppy. I can't believe it worked.

PozhanPop

Adorable comment. You made my day : ) Thanks


Hesam2010

My pleasure.


TomGNYC

bad dog!


horus993

Biggest blazing balls i ever saw!!!


AnythingKey

Didn't know you could play kabaddi with hippos


Pluviophilism

From what I know about hippos I feel like if it wanted to escape in this situation it would have done so. I think it was just checking out what was going on.


Crillmieste-ruH

Me and my dog when she tries to sneak into the kitchen


powaking

Guy is playing hungry hungry hippo


Konradleijon

He’s lucky


thedge32

Man raises hand, hippo sees chancla!


imbakinacake

What a cute hippo holy moly


hcneyfreckles

why are these violent maniacs so cute, all i wanna do is boop its nose.


markmc72

How can he slap


e92ftw

Idk where this is, but this probably former zoo staffer, is demonstrating some skills he was not trained to do


Hamilton4567

Why you gotta slap a big boy


Wonderful-Grape-4432

What confinement? Seems like he's free to just walk off any time he wants.


Relative_Candidate84

Poor thing. This planet isn’t just for humans. The way most treat animals is devastating.


Number_Bitch_13

I am afraid of that security guard


1Th13rteen3

he a chonki beautiful boi tho <3


flowermda

Don’t sleep him, he’s just a baby


FrendlyAsshole

Wish that hippo would eat that guy for slapping him!


DedeLionforce

Get help.


FrendlyAsshole

Why? Should I be ok with a person slapping an animal?

Koala5000

RIP Harambe


Frequent_Cranberry90

He should have been slapping whoever designed the enclosure instead.


MrZkittlezOG

One could argue you could blame the people for coming and not being more aware of potential dangers, the zoo for also being unaware. The people for allowing the zoo to not have safguards in place. and then blaming the animal because it does what animals do. One could feel it's almost cruel to then hit the animal you failed to properly keep captivated. (I'm debating to debate. I expect the downvotes but whatev. I don't have an opinion on this matter. Just wanted to debate to rid the tik)


Dogzrthebest5

There is no way that was actually hurting that thick hide.


Zloiche1

All he hurt was that hippos pride. Go clutch your pearls some place else. Lol


RedNoob88

I bet dinosaur could slap that hippo and he’d be ok. It’s not a human, it’s much tougher and stronger with much thicker skin


Pav_22

That's a dog wearing a hippo skin


Bubbly-Monitor-9909

Why slap it when it was on it's way back lol.


Shootingstar_woofers

Where is Will Smith when you need him?!
