A GOAT GIVING BIRTH

2009-04-30 · Hank · watch on YouTube · Science & nature · comedy performance

Still without a camcorder charger, Hank shows farm footage from his parents' house of a goat giving birth and sets it to a comic song, 'It was a goat giving birth to a baby goat', plus a techno remix by Michael Aranda.

What is said

00:00:00 — Lost camcorder charger; farm footage at Mom and Dad's (chicks, pigs); invitation to film your reaction to the goat birth

  • ★★ Hank did lose his camcorder charger and has no way to record, so he uses footage he shot at his mom and dad's house. — 00:00:03
  • ★★★ Hank presents footage of a goat giving birth to a baby goat, warning that it is graphic and a little disturbing and telling squeamish viewers to stop. (playful) — 00:00:25
  • ★★ Hank invites viewers to pause and film themselves watching the goat birth, because he wants to see their reactions and couldn't see his own. (playful) — 00:00:32

00:00:44 — Warning and song: 'It was a goat giving birth to a baby goat' over the birth footage

  • ★★ In song, Hank calls the goat birth the miracle of life but really gross; all he wants is to turn the camera off and hide. (joke) — 00:01:05 > «It was a goat giving birth to a baby goat»

00:02:44 — Thanks to Michael Aranda, the Katherine and Christie the goat (four kids); sign-off

  • ★★ Hank thanks Michael Aranda for the techno remix arrangement and the Katherine for singing harmony with him. — 00:02:44 · Michael Aranda, Katherine Green
  • ★★ Hank thanks Christie the goat for giving birth to four baby goats that day. (playful) — 00:02:52

Humor (dominant)

  • Hank prepares viewers for the sound of the goat birth. — 00:00:45 > «In my opinion, what you're about to hear sounds like a velociraptor puking.»
  • Over the birth footage Hank sings a solemn-sounding ballad about what he is seeing. — 00:01:10 > «It was a goat giving birth, oh god, that's really, really gross»
  • After the song ends, Hank announces a second version. — 00:01:48 > «no goat birthing video would be complete without a techno remix.»
  • Hank solemnly thanks Christie the goat for her four kids. — 00:03:01 > «My life will never be the same.»
