it's been a long time since i saw a music video as awesome as this one.

[Sharodb]

YES, this was a "cock fight", but not in the traditional sense, so calm down PETA heads! A REAL cock fight involves tying blades/barbs/spurs to the roosters feet so that they will cut each other up, and ultimately one would die. In this case there were no barbs,blades, or spurs on their feet. Also the roosters natural "heel spurs" weren't sharpened.

@loveshackartandphoto Please stop talking bullshit!

This cockfight is only NATURAL BEHAVIOR! and as you can see the paint is aquarel.

I dont see any harm in this...

[loveshackartandphoto]

abusive use for the sake of art? cant you find a better way to create your art, i dont think that putting paint on chickens and making them fight for the sake of your art or your song is a humane thing to do.

@lidoaznbabii

...because it's nature... why would you think the human way of 'thinking' is the right one?

[JanEgbersNL]

@lidoaznbabii It's art. So there's no answer to that question. Art is has no use, but people need it.

[carbine125]

Saw these guys at sziget festival. after seeing these guys everyones else seemed like pussies.

[lidoaznbabii]

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?!

[IngridBerg]

@manuelak the funny thing is, people aren't growing tired of it, they love new and extreme types of artistic creation.
