Turtle Struggles To Climb

Turtles are hilarious. They have short little arms and goofy, gangly necks and shells that, while they serve as priceless protection, also greatly inhibit their ability to move. Sometimes turtles are met with an obstacle their physical limitations just cannot overcome, and whenever that happens… well, it’s comedy gold!Show more

A turtle tries to scale a wall to escape a pond. A man provides the play-by-play.

This little guy really, REALLY wants to get out of that pond. You can see him trembling, desperate to dig deep for that extra strength, whatever leverage he can get to lift himself out of that mucky water. “Okay, okay, okay! Don’t talk— don’t talk to me,” the off-camera man begins, perfectly encapsulating the turtle’s present mindset. “I’m busy. Don’t say nothing. I got it, I got it!” At that point, the turtle is really exerting itself. You can just tell this won’t be going on much longer.
