Guatemalan Flight's Data-Recording Parrot Holds Clues To Crash

[TheGuywithashirt]

I'm Guatemalan and I love this!

[The1211deep]

1:05 he's too old to climb a tree

[h0rnd0917]

Someone call PETA we have dead working rodents the passengers had to eat to survive

[YSKite]

You would think they would have used a couple of hamsters instead of a turtle for the engine.

[scottg4520]

It's the Flinstons

[tippo1449]

Woah, when did Guatemala get buckets?

[Athils]

I love how onion reports on other countries piss off so many Youtube commenters. It's not even that offensive. "Guatemala is primitive" is no worse than "America is fat." Oh, a country being superficially insulted - my heart is breaking.

[farneyblakeley]

funny parrot voice, people who don't like this one have only themselves to blame

[kevinmartinez723]

@Got2bchapin shut the hell up! I'm Puerto Rican and we don't sound at all like that!

[anne2m]

This is clearly an example of IGNORANT people that make fun of a country that they don't even know where is at. Poor stupid people! They don't even talk like that, and those are not even pictures from that country! RETARDED!

[kevinmartinez723]

@anne2m you are the retarded one, this is a satire everyone knows it

[samuraigraffix]

@anne2m they got the flag right and there were different accents but its still funny as fuck

[sarahvalder]

@anne2m I think you should do research on "The Onion". It is satire news, meaning it's not actual news. It's a joke and they do it on all kinds of people.

[kflores6]

Jaguar alarm, turtle engine..... LFMAO

[PatricioMarino]

i really think this channel is becoming racist in a not-so-funny way....

[railsimulator1995]

Clearly fake.

[NoisemakerArrow]

@railsimulator1995 Clearly retarded.

[got2bchapin]

hey The Onion Got the news all fuck up that was a puertorican airline fuckers

[deathinabox777]

Doesn't anyone notice that the parrots are kept in black cages? (Black boxes)

[possumedd]

Our newest line of Jets version use chimps they are more affordable and easy to maintain also easy to feed; we still have some problems with the howling system but I believe we will receive the missing parts pretty soon. Our last system just die. Literally.

[possumedd]

He!! Just one thing onion. Yeah we don't speak like Puerto Ricans and we don't look that stupid, it doesn't make too much sense in Spanish but in English it is certainly funny. Still the onion does it good. Love it.

[ccricers]

@possumedd Yeah, Puerto Ricans are motor mouths compared to us in our speaking style XD

[possumedd]

@ccricers Certainly bro. The onion uncool. naaa!!!!

[DrElectricPineapple]

OMG im from guatemala and still i couldnt stop laughing!!

[JORMAT99]

WTF!! in Guatemala we dont talk as Puerto Ricans fuckers!!!

[vizio444]

"Explosion! Craw!"

"Nowhere to land"

"Crackers! Crackers!"

"Holy Shit, the trees!"

"Crackers"

[elk832]

Such is life in Guatemala.

[HaileyVerge]

Love how they kept him anonymous.

[got2bchapin]

ohhh mother fuckers i'm a guatemalalan ... I kill you..

[ccricers]

@got2bchapin I'm Guatemalan too and I kill no one.

[pirulin1233]

yes we are ancestors of the flintstones .thats what ur mom tol me. i want one of those parrots so they can said to all this hater to fack off jajajajajajajaj VIVA GUATE MUCHA . proud to b

[YusufAlaseeri]

I choked at the ending with the parrot! XD

IT WAS WORTH IT!

[PIEgunz]

The Flintstones must be the ancestors of Guatemala!

[vidguy007]

One of TheOnion's weirdest, and that is saying a lot.

[Fireflyfan329]

This is gold.

[Brunschweig]

Excellent!

[somberlight]

@diagram1234, i'd think its about how american news see foreign, less wealthy countries.

[chromaholic]

I also have to give a LOL shout out to the map they used.

[chromaholic]

This has to be my favorite Onion skit of all. Dark and witty stuff at it's finest.

"Explosion! Nowhere to land" "Crackers! Crackers!" ... "Get out of my way, Parrot" "I can't see" "Craw!" -- black box

[BulgarianBoy92]

hahahhahaahahahaahaahahhaahhah­ahaha

[ccricers]

I've been there for a family vacation, and they are starting to use parrots as GPS for their tuk tuks.

[DeathtoRaiden1]

I loled at the parrot but the anonymous mechanic with the wood bucket on his head almost made me choke.

[andyllamanipl]

Tortuga motor? Turtle motor? Really? That is awesome

[ccricers]

@andyllamanipl It's like living with The Flintstones :D

[eviltube1111]

152 languages...

811 countries...

9 billion viewers...

The Onion is truly a remarkable news station.

[BloodyJabs]

@eviltube1111 Yet they can't afford a censor for the mans head so they use a bucket xD

The Onion

Epic.

[blizard0717]

Dude I'm from Guatemala and not even I could understand what that parrot was saying besides "madre de Dios" wich is an expression that we never use in here.

[GoatseObama]

lol the plane might as well have been a flying zoo

[RomZruleTeHworld]

fucking ads....

[LuminusX]

Love the whistle at the end :D lol

[BONIFASI007]

this is offensive

[salemcripple]

@BONIFASI007 So? Deal with it. The constitution guarantees freedom of speech, It however does NOT say you're always going to like what you hear. And in that case, if you don't, Too bad! Go cry to momma. Of course if your comment was meant to be a joke, please disregard.

[BONIFASI007]

@salemcripple  the constitution guarantees freedom of speech?? haha what a douche

kids in school must really give you a hard time

[eviltube1111]

@BONIFASI007 You must be trying hard to be offended, cuntface.

[BONIFASI007]

@eviltube1111 cuntface? r u serious? how old r u?

[brawldude23]

@BONIFASI007 Well if you're going to be such a puss why are you even watching

[BONIFASI007]

@brawldude23  cause i'm subscribed to the onion?

[MetalEagle95]

I've been to Guatemala and I can say this report is so offensive and false. For one they use Black Howler Monkeys to deliver warnings, not Jaguars.

[stlkngyomom]

@MetalEagle95 Sir I find your language offensive and you a bigot.Everyone knows they are African-SouthAmerican Howler Monkeys.

[MetalEagle95]

@stlkngyomom Oh yeah? Well how bout we go and use their Russian Tucan AKA Official Guatemalan lie-detector to see who is right.

[stlkngyomom]

@MetalEagle95 There you go again!It's Asian-Caucasian Tucan,please look for the source of hate within you and address it(the "grabler exercise" helped me).

[MetalEagle95]

@stlkngyomom I can't help it! My South Taiwanese sloth/shirt was stolen from me at a very young age by Guatemalans!

[stlkngyomom]

@MetalEagle95 Alas,you've come a full circlre and aknowledged the event that traumatized for so long.The road to recovery will be long and hard,with lot's of glistening sweat and tears of joy(and pain),many hours of mindnumbing exercises repeated over and over with random strangers in dark,seedy places,minds and bodies intertwined in cool,damp twilight burning,scalding,healing,feedi­ng,oscilating on and on the primal avalanche of desire.Also everyone calls Taiwanese gook,especially Taiwanese.

[MetalEagle95]

@stlkngyomom So what your saying is by dedicating my life to being accurate in respect for other creeds and race's, I've somehow managed to become the thing I hate. Some hate spewing crappy music loving racist......It all makes sense now. Thank you good sir.

[throwingshit]

i thought i was watching CNN for a bit, when i realized... this parrot is way to smart to be on CNN.

[carmen510]

I thought the peacocks were supposed to deploy their feathers in order to smoothen the landing.

[seanyyzz]

Lmfao, oh my gosh, could the onion get any funnier? 

[Immaculite]

wtf?

[Sollythesilent]

Thank god they have they have the flintstones down there

[motorolalasershot]

As a Guatemalan, this cracked me up! Genius!

[manofallmen555]

i was seriously crying and about to wet myself during this!

I pulled the tail of our jaguar alarm and luckily they heard it in time xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[jmovlogs]

Its a Flintstones plane!

[YesIm10]

HOLY SHIT THE TREES!

[underweightHater]

if guatemala were really like this i would want to live there.

[Padre4321]

This is the best Onion segment I have seen. Incredible!

[kingofschnitzels]

The anonymous mechanic with the bucket on his head, and the sweat running down the front of his shirt killed me. This is amazing lol.

[variously2]

i love the diagram of the turtle. and that parrot, they went to all that trouble for this!

but it pays off, this one made me laugh so hard i almost fell off my chair.

p.s. is the f27 reference poking fun at the fact that the last one was built in '87 and they're all old and should be decommissioned?

[Onetinytree]

@variously2 It's a reference to "Alive"

[Xmaggot93X]

It's mocking how we see far away countries like those in South America as being primitive.

[swedisagnostic]

811 countries and 9 billion people

[themishkin]

Wow, I can't believe they still use tortoises as a form of transportation. That's just stupid because hogs are much faster.

[Willster54321]

i fucking loled when the guy said my monkey alarms went off then i started to get the whole video HAHAHA

[pacosaidso]

I need a jaguar alarm.

[TonicMike]

@pacosaidso seriously me too

[METALMAN4Wii]

@pacosaidso Ya good luck with that buddy......!

[VeritasTruthEmet]

lol, the thing is.... even if this were completely accurate it would still leave africa in the stone age by contrast. That is because.... africa has never advanced past the fucking stone age for more than several decades at a time. Why is that?

[carlitoshello]

HAHA THIS IS FUNNY SHIT QUE VIVA GUATEMALA

[crocodilewerewolf]

As someone who has family from Guatemala...i can tell you that they have a parrot JUST FUCKING LIKE THAT. It's amazing how the Onion has the ability to appeal to something within you that you didn't think you could relate to others. It's why they are one of the funniest publications today. Amazing stuff.

[xevnoc]

@crocodilewerewolf First of all, my condolences. This is just more proof that the only rightful recipients to the Pulitzer are the brave reporters of the onion.

[Tezcatlepocatl]

This is the only onion video I have seen where the ticker is serious. But that's probably because it's in Spanish and it wasn't worth to make a funny joke that few people would get.

[MyPasswordisGrawp]

flight 1134 lol!

[tauwilltriumph]

It's in CENTRAL America, morons.

[cometkite]

Usually the Onion has some funny satire, or at least a funny joke. But for this one the joke seems to consist of "South America is primitive and backwards" which I just find insulting.

[PumaOPumaOPumaO]

@cometkite

Don't watch then, thin skin.

[cometkite]

@PumaOPumaOPumaO I don't understand.  It'll still exist whether or not I watch it.

[chukas88]

@cometkite

and that is probably because you relate to "south american" (even thou guatemala is in CENTRAL AMERICA).

Don't worry that happens to most people.

[cometkite]

@chukas88 Well, geography aside, I still stand by my comment.

[whittleddownbattery]

@cometkite

L2lulz

[brandonplaysguitar16]

Wow, they must be really poor if they can't even afford proper airline equipment. I would not be comfortable using their airline.

[indalecio21]

Crackers-Crackers!

[zellmer]

Remember that soccer world cup? Didn't it reveal that Africa really IS like this video?

[ryukXsayu27]

@zellmer Guatemala is in South America...

[Benereth]

@ryukXsayu27 Guatemala is in 'North america'... not in south america.

[isilus]

WAHWAHH THIS SHIT WAS FUNNY.. to bad actors where like dunno not guatemalan.. thats some funny shit accent down south maby costa rica or honduras

[DokkyDok]

[oliverrr1989]

'I pulled the tail of our jaguar alarm!'

LMAO hahaha

[EyequeenCasskulla]

[EyequeenCasskulla]

I mean parodies, lolz

[423likeajewel]

I laughed my ass off at the ending hahahaha "EXPLOSION! CRAW!"

[OrangebearProducts]

I don't get it.

[suntea17]

I don't know why, but the parts where the parrot whistled got me the most. XDD

[lbrady3]

this is from a website called the onion. just to let you know its all a joke for those who are wondering hahaha

[ChiaKaCheng]

'9 billion viewers' i suppose the onion is from another planet

[coolty545]

@ChiaKaCheng

No, no. They just have a lot of viewers in the future.

[jazzx251]

@ChiaKaCheng ... and 811 countries!

[locanumero2]

This was a joke right? lol

[zirco12]

@locanumero2 No! The Onion is a reliable and trusted news source. Sarcasm.

[EyequeenCasskulla]

@locanumero2 Of course, The Onion is KNOWN for making paradies. lol

[rebelsouljaz]

[southphilie]

@asainfoodroqks yes its a joke thats the point of the onion there a spoof news network

[m4dleprechaun]

@asainfoodroqks Yes, it's very real. All Guatemalan air crafts have turtles for engines.

[ProbeIke]

Did anyone get it? Flight 1134 - in a calculator upside-down it's...

[nalgaface123456789]

@ProbeIke

wow

the onion has some really subtle jokes

[zombiecrowtv]

[zombiecrowtv]

hahaha I didn't need the subtitles, its funnier in Spanish

[zombiecrowtv]

hahaha thumbss up if you speak Spanish and didn't need the subtitles, it was funnier in Spanish hahaha

[NorthSideCartel]

@zombiecrowtv I know Spanish and i that bird from hell talks very fast. I wouldn't understand what the heck his speaking. If this is true this is very sad.

[zombiecrowtv]

hahaha thumbs if you speak Spanish and didn't need the subtitles, it was funnier in Spanish hahaha

[keepit0nthedL17]

Yeah this shit was creative.. but really Guatamala isnt like this. It's beautiful

[juanniG]

omfg...can't breath!

[LucasCAPS]

bucket > blur

[23Belligerent]

LOL w...t....f?? 

[Mallderiss]

Damm, this shit is off the hook

[dlfnzrok]

awwwwww mean...but it really IS funnier is you understand some spanish

[DarwynJackson]

i'm from guatemala, but i don't think it's like that. we don't really live like this.

[lmm85]

@DarwynJackson Of course. It's a parody, therefore it contains a great deal of exaggeration.

[MrRalx]

There is a not question of technology in a third world country ...... N are donations from Taiwan. Is just a two very intelligent parrots from Guatemala, well one parrot!! hahahaha

[irvrod]

yup thats how guatemala is.

[bebeoploki]

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAA OMG THAT WAS SO FUNNY IM CRYING RIGHT NAO

its extra funny if you can speak spanish

[miturbinesdurti]

I wish this was in English because it was hilarious and having to read subtitles takes away from catching all of the comedic nuances.

[skyblue2567]

LOL WHATS THE WORLD COMING Too? interrogating parrots....

[jmoose311]

WTF? is this real??? i can't believe guattamala still uses parrot flight recorders. they really need to get with the times!!!

[analyzingfunny]

@jmoose311 Yes, this is real. I helped to install these voice recorders. While you are correct that they need to update, some countries can only afford these type of voice recorders.

[Phillip1220]

1:12 "mechanic speaking 'anonymously' but on the top is says his name is: Carlos Roberto Reina. : )

[ntall123]

@Phillip1220 But he has a bucket over his head.

[0thatdudewill0]

newslady is so fuckin hot. wow... really....wow. i need to go to south america!

[Manano09]

@0thatdudewill0 i think you mean central america :D

[0thatdudewill0]

@Manano09 very possibly, idk where chicks like that mainly are focused at. if you say "Central" then central is where i go!

[BlackVirusxz]

Haha, funny stuff

[lmm85]

As a Guatemalan, I can clearly tell their accent is obviously not local, but that's besides the point.

This video is absolutely hilarious! I loved it.

It is true that 3rd world countries struggle in their technology, but this... was exaggerated, a little. :p

[mrcatman97]

@lmm85 im guatemalan too

[AfterImage9]

@lmm85

Guatemala must really suck!!

[lmm85]

@AfterImage9 We have beautiful landscapes, weather, culture and natural resources. Everything has its pros and cons.
