Raw Video: Cleaning a Bird Covered in Oil

[selenascaglione]

NEVER IMAGINED that one???!!!

[Antonio865]

Great job guys lets clean up these poor animals as an apology for dropping shit all over their ocean home. God I fucking hate mankind we ruin everything that is nature.

[Vasqueez]

1:24 - 1:25 "aw fuck" lmao

[BreakDown1996]

Have to press F5 to skip the ads

[BioGrass]

Please consider a 100% vegetal-extracted option for the cleansing of birds. It cleans better and you get a residual that you can use it as fertilizer.

What do you do with the cleansing process residual?

Please check my videos and you can know the unique 100% natural solution for cleaning oil covered birds, without attempt against environment.

[VictoryFire88]

Shouldn't they have used Dawn on the birds. According to some of the cimmericals it good for getting oil off the birds.

[zazzan100]

poor bird why do you even go there its there for a reason

[furstclasswhitetrash]

bravo to all for helping but did you guys think about how unhealthy and stressfull doing this cleaning proccess in front of tons of people was?

[Seph272]

Do they still use dawn dish soap to clean animals?

[KenanVideos]

*bang* "Oh fuck"..?

[supermariologan]

@KenanVideos i heard it to lol

[SonsoftheProphets]

Typical, the women are washing but the 1 guy is just standing around

[SunChaserWildlife]

@SonsoftheProphets I believe that is Ken Salazar, sucking up the photo Op. Be ok with me if they doused him in oil. Maybe he will get an idea what he is supposed to be doing for our wildlife.

[SonsoftheProphets]

@SunChaserWildlife lol

[mezatopia]

My question to this bird cleanup is............ Where is the bird going to fly back to?

[dudess4rent]

I hope they bill BP a few thousand bucks for each bird cleaned and rescued. Even crazy religious people don't think it's ok anymore.

[blakmira]

@dudess4rent What exactly are "crazy religious people"? You mean selfish a-holes who would rather make a profit poisoning the planet while it kills all living beings? I would call those "wealthy fascist corporatist elites" and I don't think any of them are what I'd call religious, except perhaps they worship Satan, hater of all Nature, while claiming to be Christians...

[Bichons9]

THANKYOU FOR CARING FOR THE ANIMALS!!!

[Terry413413]

@9ff70 - the vast majority do not die. There was an NPR program on this. The birds that are cleaned and fed can live. As many as 80% of pelicans do.

Agree with rest of your comment.

[blakmira]

@Terry413413 -- there have been recent reports that every single worker on the Exxon Valdez is now dead, average age of death 51 -- depends how much of the toxic fumes/Corexit these poor birds have had to swallow and breathe in. How will we ever know? The actual numbers of dead animals and carcasses are being kept a closely guarded secret from the public to minimize BP/Halliburton etc.'s financial liability...

[freetubester]

View THE MONEY MASTERS on You Tube. This is the third attack on New Orleans.

[icelez]

i can't get oil out my floor mats after two hours!

[9ff70f96]

The vast majority of them die soon afterwards.

But it looks good for the cameras, and helps keep the ignorant, ignorant.

This is all your fault, people. It's what happens as a consequence of the lives you lead. But few if any of you will ever entertain such a thought as it would mean you would have to choose between acting to make a difference at the consequence of your own rather pleasant lifestyles, or realising you're a hypocrit, content with pushing the blame on anyone but yourselves.

[poosaypirate]

@9ff70f96 WHY IS IT NO SURPRISE UR ENTIRE PROFILE IS BLACK

[9ff70f96]

@poosaypirate I don't know, why is it no surprise? Please, let me hear your theory now, I could do with a good laugh...

[poosaypirate]

@9ff70f96 You think about it

hows that for your laugh?

[9ff70f96]

@poosaypirate Shit, you non-sensical cunt. So go ahead now, explain your complete lack of surprise at why my "PROFILE IS BLACK."  I'm sure it's going to be fucking riveting, which is why I'm so keen to hear it...

[poosaypirate]

@9ff70f96  THATS WHY

[blakmira]

@9ff70f96 Yes, these birds have been poisoned & it's good PR for the cameras.

However, don't say all *your* fault -- you need to include yourself.

Are you a vegan that grows your own crops? Do you ride a bicycle instead of a car? Have you investigated building your own solar panels? Do you campaign in your state to legalize industrial hemp?

Fingerpointing is usually very counterproductive unless you include yourself in there too.

[9ff70f96]

@blakmira I absolutely do include myself, and you're absolutely right. I contribute to it in my own ways for sure, though I don't own a car, and do try to be conscious of the reality of the consequence of my actions.

There are too many people living destructive lives. The system we have created, that we have come to depend on for survival, threatens to end everything. We need to realise this first, then start taking responsibility for it, if we have an interest in anything but ourselves.

[9ff70f96]

@blakmira P.S. Yes, I cycle everywhere. There are lot of benefits to it as far as health and efficiency go. No, I'm not a vegan, I'll eat anything for survival. I would grow my own food but don't have the resources to do it (land). I'd love to use solar/wind but, again, don't have the resources for it (money/space). I'm pro-nuclear. Burning oil to me is like burning trees or coal. It's old-school, and needs replacing with something much cleaner for our population size and living style.

[Sadie1307]

what a satisfying video :)

[poosaypirate]

@TacozOfGlory VANDALISM AND DESTROYING FOOD IS NOT GOING TO PRESERVE OUR ENVIRONMENT get involved and do something constructive

I REALLY Have my doubts on the the survival of BP

at the end the responsibility of change is up to you

[samynonthegreen]

God bless those that care of the animals. 

[MonyMG1959]

don't wait till they are all covered with oil and dead...catch and relocate as many as you can. PLEASE. PLEASE

[cripbuddz]

this is fucked up.......my heart is just broken. My thoughts have just been brang to reality. America is gonna be fucked up for decades to come.

[MrVBat]

All those who are responsible for that mess should be drowned in the oil spill and burned aferwards!

[blakmira]

@MrVBat Great idea. Look at the hell this bird is going through & there are thousands already dead-- who knows how many dolphins & fish have sunk to the bottom of the ocean floor weighted down by oil.

The problem is the criminals go way beyond BP to Halliburton to General Motors for killing the electric car...Obama/gov'mt response is as slow as Bush admin./FEMA in Katrina. The criminals aren't trying to stop it... you can't even get on the beach w/out a BP rep!

The planet is so screwed.

[EsotericDesi]

Terrible... Oil company executives should be forced to take dip in oil and see how they like it... You can rebuild after a hurricane, you can't clean this stucky mess ever...

[mattyg546]

you know who's fucking fault it is the fucking environmentalists who made the oil companies move so far out into the deep sea that its almost impossible to close the well if something like this were to happen. if the oil companies were allowed to pump one or two miles out this problem in shallow water would be solved in maybe a weak.

[bebop900]

@mattyg546 Thats actually probably true. oil would probably do less damage if spilled on land then it does in the ocean, at least you can contain it if its on land, in the water it just spreads and gets everything

[blakmira]

@mattyg546 Not sure what you mean by "environmentalists" but those sincerely opposed to oil want alternative fuels like electric cars, solar energy, alcohol & hemp seed oil fuels -- not just moving the rigs out to the ocean to do even more damage in case of an accident. GM killed the electric car to put out the Hummer instead for more profit. You really shouldn't stereotype people who actually care about the planet.

[mattyg546]

@blakmira ight well why dont environmentalist fight for bringing up less oil then pushing the rigs farther out, thats what i meant. of course we need electric cars but look what happens when u make companies drill in deep sea.

[rawrberrys]

@blakmira After all it is our planet, why SHOULDN'T we care?? Fuck anyone who wants to be selfish and keep things the way they are, ALL life even this minuscule bird has the right to a happy oil free home. Balance must be kept, those birds are here for a reason.

[wendym1234]

Poor bird must be terrified as if space aliens had come down and grabbed us and started scrubbing us!!! Bird is not fighting because of shock... But it's great there are such caring human individuals to help out each bird individual like this.

[piemanio1]

thanks for helping i'm sure the bird is very grateful keep going

[elverga5]

this sux but why blame the white house ? bp is the company as if obama gives a shit.. it took him 37 days to respond to it and besides wtf is he going to do ?

fuck bp even if we do get our gas from them

[Chainsawcannibal]

I fucking hate Industrialism..

[cafo]

we are fucking up our own planet, and the worse problem is ppl don't have feelings and respect anymore and just kill eachother for fun

[DesertDee]

God bless you all for caring about these beautiful creature.

[kats9livesfive]

That poor thing :(

[courtsarecorrupt]

@ tehzapa wanker!! it's because of humans this bird is in this way. Go learn some compassion!!!

[thedarksideofbetty]

Someone is going to hell for this.

[tehzapa]

just kill it ffs

[isocrate27]

The only purpose of this is for humans to feel better about themselves. Put down this poor bird. It has suffered too much already.

[Mamasan41]

Thank you SO much all you volunteers who are doing your best to clean these birds.

[Habasch78]

get him clean? He is ..........?

[einheit02]

Let's all stop using oil related products immediately! That'll show em, and put them out of business. I know I certainly don't need to use petroleum products; not enough to allow things like this to happen. Join the boycott!

[9ff70f96]

"Local animal rescue workers have volunteered to help treat birds affected by the slick and to collect data that would also be used to help calculate penalties for the spill. But federal officials have told the volunteers that the work must be done by a company hired by BP."

[9ff70f96]

Google this: "Cleaning Birds After Oil Spills Often Proves Futile"

[TriStateMartialArts]

The bird is not going to die from the help it is receiving! Don't comment on something you know nothing about!

[TheTexanAtheist]

I fucking hate humanity!!!

[TheTexanAtheist]

I fucking hate humanity!!!

[thedarksideofbetty]

@TheTexanAtheist

it's the inhumanity that I hate.

[shifttradition]

that bird is going to die just from the stress of all those people grabbing it. all for what? a demonstration for the press?

[AlvaroAndfriends]

Dish soap always removes many sorts grease safely from animals what did they used on these animals?

[9ff70f96]

@AlvaroAndfriends Does it remove it from their internal organs, too?

[AlvaroAndfriends]

@9ff70f96: Ha ha love your sense of humor. To be honest i dont know LOL

[einheit02]

@9ff70f96 It does, but making them eat the soap is the tricky part

[kenandjasha]

Why there aren't riots in America/ real revolution is beyond me...stupid sheeple still actually think this government is working for them lol

[SicSociophobiac]

This is so sad. =/

I could walk to the beach right now and find like, 4 of these things covered in oil, and I live way the hell in Mississippi.

[sciiworks]

@SicSociophobiac

Tony Hayward the prez of BP cares less about the average american figure it out people this scumbag cares about profit ONLY=why do you think the other day he mentioned that it's just a small amount of oil leaking into the gulf! Louisiana fishermen you are doomed!!!!

[HemiHead66]

Why worry about oil-bird, the only things that matter are profits, and filling the tank.

[RvBxXkicksXxASSxX]

@HemiHead66 how would u like it if i coverd u and then was like haha im gonna sell that stuff killing u and leave u to die

[HemiHead66]

@RvBxXkicksXxASSxX

Boy - you really are slow on the up-take. Do you know what sarcasm means? Being sarcastic? Try looking it up.

[HemiHead66]

@RvBxXkicksXxASSxX Here - I'll help ya.

Definition:

1. mocking: characterized by words that mean the opposite of what they seem to say and are intended to mock or deride

[sciiworks]

BTW if i was a Thai shrimper in Louisiana I would be collecting these dead birds off the beach and saving them as a food source. You can readily assume 1/2 of that work force isn't paying taxes so per Obama's GREAT 120 million deepwater bailout unemployment/re-training these people simply will not qualify.

[gregwi562]

@sciiworks

[Manofbegging]

Birds are flying rats. I hope the oil spill kills em all.

[clock2012]

Man watching this video is like watching jewish concentration camps the movie. I wonder what happens if someone smoking in the room.

Firebird and 2012 !!!

[sciiworks]

@clock2012

I know you're better off calling Perdue chicken he'll know what to do with them & you certainly don't have to baste them for the grill! Hell you don't even need charcoal, simply toss a match on it and you have a complete bird dinner in about 15 minutes.

[iknewitalready]

swimmin in the crude OIL

[pubtor]

poor bird needs a good scrub

[sciiworks]

Just an e-thought

Instead of cleaning the bird up so he/she can die again. The USPS offers flat-rate priority mail boxes @ 26.00 usd. When the bird passes on break the wings & simply seal it up in Saran-Wrap and mail to BP Headquarters England. PS don't tell the stupid postal workers it's hazardous material either otherwise it may not be mailed. When you fill out the customs form in the descriptor section mark as "figurine".... BTW a dead dolphin is a shipping nightmare!

[treid100182]

DONE WITH OBAMA

[sciiworks]

LQQk I hate to say it but this is a waste of time.

The bird will be set free only to fly into and swim in the oil again

"rinse and repeat"

The focus has to be on stopping the blow-out by any means necessary.

[subhumanerror]

@sciiworks That's why they're not releasing them. They're going to keep them indefinitely, until they've made progress on cleaning up the spill. If you were actually keeping up on the story, you would know that.

lol @ "The focus has to be on stopping the blow-out by any means necessary." Yeah, the biologists should be focusing on engineering issues. Stop wasting their time.

[sciiworks]

@subhumanerror

F*CK YOU research my posts here on AP vids & at Huffington post I have outlined some damn good ideas on how to kill the blow-out so stop trying the idiot card.

In the meantime people can collect dead birds perform amateur taxidermy (fill the cavity with oil balls) and mail to BP.

Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelope 13.45

(good for small turtles &birds)

Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box 13.45

Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate Box 43.45

(Bird pictured in the video)

[subhumanerror]

@sciiworks lol

[bodidarma505]

I have a theory, if I went into the street and dumped a large amount of oil, then setting it ablaze, I imagine that I would be arrested immediately and placed in one of those lovely facilities that we are always seeing on msnbc in the wee hours of the morning.

I bet if we put a couple of these billionaires that are making and estimated 5 million a day -- along with their lawyers -- in a cell with the "toss-salad man", they would soon be able to see just who was accountable!

[solimiansky]

Bp is in no hurry to clean up the oil spill the barrell of oil went up $3 last week that means that BP is making $90mil a day in profit from this oil spill plus money from insurance, so no hurry and no worries for them

[JOS3EMMANUEL]

FUCK YOU BRITISH PETROLEOUM!!. hope ur mother gets raped

[agentmusti]

WHo cares shoot the fukin thing....

[snuckyr]

1:22 - a true "RAW" Video "F-ck it" - lol

[iknewitalready]

scrubbing to save a dead birds......soon they will be scrubbing OIL drenched humans.

[opAir01]

this is what they created in the name of greed..

bp is following the foot steps of chevron of course with the help of haliburton

long live capitalism .... urrr ... greed.

[ShadeRage2007]

@opAir01 Haliburton left our troops hanging in the Middle East.  Only thing those bastards care about it money. I hope this spill breaks them.

[ParadigmPenguin]

@opAir01

Funny how "greed' and oil spills still occur in socialist countries.

[iknewitalready]

that bird is dead. let it die

[YouEminent]

@iknewitalready

If it is, why is it dead? Who killed it? Did another bird kill it? Did one of its natural predators kill it?

[iknewitalready]

@YouEminent

Crude OIL

[YouEminent]

@iknewitalready

Why? Why hadn't oil killed it before? Who made the oil kill it?

[iknewitalready]

Addicted to "sweet" Crude and soaked in GREED.

will never learn and that's a promise.

[Xx7Zeithious7xX]

Poor animal :( I love animals. I might eat some, but I still love them, in my tummy. lol but really, I feel for these guys.

[VariusMayhem]

The poor bird must be scared like shit! Imagine you have a goo all over you and aliens come, grab you of the floor and clean you up. That's how this bird must feel now. Poor thing... But hey... Drill, Obama, Drill! It seems the US president isn't happy enough with only pissing of the population of the US, he's now up to piss off Mother Nature!

[AdamEtheredge]

The suicide rate is going to skyrocket down here.

FUCK YOU, BP, DICK CHENEY, HALLIBURTON, TRANSOCEAN GREEDY EVIL MONSTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DIE SOON, YOU FUCKING OIL SCUM!

[9ff70f96]

@AdamEtheredge So stop buying the oil then...

[AdamEtheredge]

@9ff70f96 I don't, man. I don't even own a car. I just walk everywhere and get screamed at by idiots in SUVs as they barrel past on the road.

[9ff70f96]

@AdamEtheredge Then I'm sorry for suggesting otherwise. I suspect you're probably in the minority, though. Too few people seem to give a damn really as too few demonstrate that they actually mean it once presented with the option to curtail their destructive lifestyles.

[AdamEtheredge]

@9ff70f96 Oh, no sweat. I certainly wasn't mad at you. And I'm not mad that I have to walk. It's often the high-point of my day. Good exercise, good time to think, good time to be happy.

And people scream at me a lot less lately. Being around other people, in general lately, in real life, has been much more enjoyable.

It's all going to be okay, eventually. But it's a tragedy for the wetlands, and for the life forms in the Gulf.

I have chosen to learn patience, which is difficult for me. Prayer.

[AdamEtheredge]

Not because of fear, and for no other reason than I see now, for myself, that what I said here was VERY wrong.

Perhaps some may have thumbed it up, but that is from anger, as were my words. I rushed to judge the situation, as I often have in my life to date, before I truly knew the cause and those involved.

I HUMBLY apologize, here and now, to Richard Cheney, BP, Halliburton, and Transocean, for what I said.

I am flawed..

I beg forgiveness for my mean outburst.

I wish harm to none.

[sbhdawn]

@AdamEtheredge yes, so glad you got it right!! it is the fault of all you named, thank you for posting this

[poosaypirate]

@AdamEtheredge make your anger constructive please be the change you wish to see in the world

donate money

send prayers

volunteer time or work

Amen!

send this message to others THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!

[AmericanGi370]

@AdamEtheredge What the fuck does Dick Cheney have to do with this? Its not halliburton either, all they did was sell the reacher. Get your facts straight man.

[KnightTriple6]

The Good News is The Oil is Still Fine and

Can be Re-Used to Spill On Other Areas Of

the Sea So They Can Kill Off All Sea Life.

[johnu78]

This is horrible! BP should be bankrupted because of this, and its CEO Heyward should have to do day labor for this rest of his sick twisted miserable life!

[einheit02]

@johnu78 Yes, every BP employee should be out of a job because the rig overseer made a terrible, terrible mistake. Punish the families!

[clngogo]

@einheit02 dont punis the family its not like EVERY bp employee made this happen in what only a small percent of the employees that somewhat caused this so dont punish all the families for a horrible mistake a couple of guys did!

[sharinggon456]

aww its nice to see that the bird isnt going to die from the oil.....but die from getting thrusted around from the washing...but hey it wasnt cause of the oil that it died that good news for those asshole rich oil companies

[mohsin19999995]

i thought they were using dawn soap

[mohsin19999995]

@mohsin19999995 w8 nvm they are

[rdd96822]

this is disturbing
