I don't want to seem to be splitting hairs, but isn't that a hare?

[AB Editor]

They do decide on that about halfway through.

[Baldric]

Subtitles would have been handy!

[B00]

Didnt squish it at the end did they? wasn't sure :-(

[boxtops]

I feel sorry for the hare - why didn't they just stop and let it disappear, rather than keep following it?

[boxtops]

I fear it may have, B00 - oncoming headlights :-( :-(

[B00]

oh! :-(

[Baldric]

Are you part of the Hunting, Shooting Fishing Set Ed?
That does seem rather cruel!

[AB Editor]

Not sure if they squished it, I don't think so.

They did stop, repeatedly - I don't think you watched it all?

[AB Editor]

The point is the hare is playing a game with them it seems. They're desperate not to hit it and every time they stop, it stops and waits for them! Every time they try and pass it, it blocks them!

[AB Editor]

They even turn the lights off to try and sneak past - but they can't because it starting running with them again!

[netibiza]

Aw quite cruel, poor lil hare (or am I splitting hairs?)

[netibiza]

Or did they split the hair?

[Old_Geezer]

It probably had a long way to go and wanted the way lit up.

may not be the same hare, Scotland is famous for its rabbit relay teams

Now that video reminds me of 2 rabbits in a country lane at night. A little hedgehog appears and asks the rabbits how they manage to avoid the traffic, for all his family get squished every time they venture onto the road.

The first rabbit explains to the hedgehog how he gets in the middle of the road and awaits oncoming traffic. As the cars approach the rabbit lines himself up exactly between the headlights and at the last moment the rabbit ducks down and the traffic passes over him, leaving him unscathed.

The hedgehog is amazed by this and asks to be shown how they survive being squished.

The 2nd rabbit offers to show the hedgehog how it is done.

After a while car lights appear at the end of the lane. The 2nd rabbit gets on to the tarmac and carefully judges the car's approach. He adjusts his position a couple of times to be sure he is standing exactly between the headlights. At the final moment the rabbit ducks down and the car passes safely over him. The hedhehog is well pleased and says he would like to have a go.

When the next set of car lights is seen at the end of the lane the hedgehog gets into the middle of the lane. The rabbits remind him to be ever-watchful and adjust his position as the car approaches. The hedgehog obeys their instructions.

As the car reaches the hedgehog he ducks down.

The car has run him over and he is squished.

The rabbits approach the dead hedgehog. What a shame, says the 1st rabbit.

Yes, replies the 2nd rabbit. When did you last see a Reliant come down this lane?

priceless. :)

[AB Editor]

A classic Mier :)

Why did the hedgehog cross the road?

To see his flat mate.
