Marty Monster and Rags the kangaroo on The Early Bird Show

[susucsd]

Personally knowing Frits, all you people cam rest easy, cos as a professional animal handler and animal lover, Rags was very well cared for. He was rescued from a private zoo by Frits

[jronson22]

Kangaroo has a fair set of guns

[cypresspuz]

Those claws look dangerous as hell.

[gothnoob]

this is too depressing to finish

[SlenderTroll]

LOL at 4:40 he's feeling the roo up.

[TheAgwoodliffe]

Just out of curiosity, what's the song playing in the background?

[Ookamiboy12]

4:30 the huggle of DEATH! Marty was just lucky that the guy can somewhat control that 'roo or he'd have fallen victim to this menacing cuddle, ohhhh he may look cute and sweet, but he could snuggle a full grown man into submission on a whim, gotta be careful around them creatures of doom and cuteness

[lilsm555]

a kangaroo could disembowel you if they didn't cut its nails.

[bassbees]

2.04 look like a full nelson

[jimb073]

Anyone have anymore footage of this 700 hour episode? It was a classic show

[ShaqEatsAirplane]

"watch it marty, you'll be in trouble" lmao

[philby71]

Anybody got any footage of Professor Noet Awl ?

[CradaOC]

Rags would get a kick right in his bollocks

[paulisdead]

"You can wear a Stackhat!".

Yes, where was his Stackhat?

[willscreations08]

Marty kept getin in his face.

[cheyennebritbrat]

i dont usually like stuffed puppets (tho ive dated a few),,,i quite like marty:)

[no1dagboy]

Disgraceful and demeaning.....these animal people are all insane....just stop tormenting the poor animal...they definitely DO NOT enjoy this and it is NOT the highlight of their day

[princi57]

@no1dagboy i agree i dont see how this is funny at all why slap it in the face!

[Akihoshinofan]

I was on the Kangaroo's side.

[Surfing4like]

One thing us Australians are known for which is completly what gen Y does now is sheare jackass idiocy

[xKillTheMachines]

This Kangaroo is a straight gangsta, he'll fight anyone that tries to step to him.

[kecola]

That man is a grade A jackass. After he shoved the hat in the kangaroo's face and pulled him up by the neck I was hoping the roo would kick his ass. He did one better and body slammed the dumbass. I was not disappointed :)

[Sailorsparks1]

I bet it hates Marty

[Equinewhispers]

is this for real?!

[fivecougarsthanks69]

christ, that is the biggest kangaroo I've ever seen.

[cloudy7]

LOL, for years I never knew the name of that monster. I thought he was supposed to be a massive chicken nugget or something.

[kecola]

@cloudy7 hahahahhahahahaha!!

[mgo26]

Does anyone know if the video of Marty Monster having a snake crawl in his mouth has been posted? You could hear the guy inside the suit scream!

[monkeycasket]

Classic! I love how Cameron runs away like a little sissy girl after her first kiss at a high school dance.

Meanwhile, the kangaroo guy, is trying to stay calm and chummy ..."Come and see Rags on your school holidays...he's not normally as violent as this"LOL. as he's bleeding from internal injuries...Great 80's Aussie TV!

[notoriouslynx]

poor marty

[OhSoAle]

Those people are horrible.

:| Poor Kangaroo.

[DisturbedWolfPrince]

he insults rags and Rags kicks his ass how funny

[Nich711]

at about 4:49 marty the monster actually was grunting because the kangaroo hurt him and that was his last episode saw it on animal planet

[TimChuma]

Kangaroos are NOT CUTE! They are a pest and nuisance and will rip your guts out/scratch the shit out of you if they get cornered.

[pauloz386]

They also wreck your car if you hit one!

[Airlaith]

They're not pests, not by definition.

[StreetsMcGoo]

What the hell do you consider a pest? I've never heard of kangaroo herds running about and eating farming crops or killing livestock-which is what 'pests' like elephants and tigers do respectively. Can you Australians even GROW stuff on that penal colony island of yours? You export what...beef from Queensland and wool? Oh yeah kangaroos are such a nuisance to those animals!

[TimChuma]

Yeah, whatever mate...

[02fnky4u]

i remember watching that as a kid was scarey then but funny now lol

[wowlturkey]

you guys are cowardly! This is the most entertaining video for any comic enthusiast. "Oh but they're tormenting the beast to fight" WHO CARES? this is the most amusing video I have seen in a long time!

Raggs is a star. He paved the way for Skippy. If it weren't Raggs, in fact, the alarm would not have been raised over the slaughter of his fellow kind.

Raggs is a star, an icon and a hero. For you to take that away from him is dispicable.

but seriously I don't even care haha still funny...

[bunyipgirl]

One of the funniest moments on Oz telly. :D

[LazarouMonkeyTerror]

When will those whacked out producers learn, Roos and Marty don't get along. Especially with that bearded nonce of a tormentor goading the poor beast to fight. And then right at the end, as if there wasn't enough chaos to entertain the jaded masses they let loose a small child to see what happens there!! What next, a guy in a Barney the Dinosaur suit getting torn apart by a hungry timberwolf?

[lurker8475]

The small boy is actually the son of Paul Keane who played Des Clarke on Neighbours.

[vidEvWill]

"tamest red kangaroo in Australia"...HA! He sure ain't tame in this one! He laid out his trainer good! Roos hate guys in costumes or strange things their reaction is they think it's a threat or a challenge. You stare at a kangaroo it meand they want to fight. I guess Marty's big eyes turned the roo off.

[Coldacre]

why do I get a sinking feeling watching this

[rocker1946]

There was a really good film clip on "Rags" on the Clive James show years ago. PS:  I wouldn't purchase kangaroo meat in a fit.

[MS85ToyotaCrown]

There good eating, I buy them at Woolies and my dog loves the meat.

[vidEvWill]

So is Gator Meat...Gator Meat is good eating too.

[jtbond1975]

@MS85ToyotaCrown Marty Monsters are good eatin"!

[anonleft]

That's one tormented animal. Monbulk, eh? Wonder if that tosspot's still abusing kangaroos.

[thomashulk]

Never seen anyone that deserved to die from a brown snake bite more than him. Worse than Steve Irwin.

[daneoaman1]

ha this kangaroo rocks!!! what a weak lamearse chicken shit cam dado is

[cuntsmasherHD]

I get it....Australian tv operates on the same principle as drains in Australia.This is total chaos.

[Boltneck77]

Better than the cheezy, right wing biased american rubbish the we get exposed to...I don't think I've ever seen an informative American show yet...It's all Mc Crap.

[jenellecleary]

Marty Monster never recovered... classic AusTV moment.. Bring this show back!!!!

[rocketprime]

Kangaroos really don't like Marty Monster for some reason.

[brettshears]

Geese that big boy likes it rough

[bigthing1]

great show. Used to watch always on Saturday morning but this show was the victim of networking from Sydney

[nzoomed]

this scene was on "when animals attack" on tv
