I found this kind of interesting. I never saw penguins flying before.

April fools?

Yes, yes it is.



Spaghetti trees.

Its a very well made video. They took images of swimming penguins and used this to make it look like they were flying. I think there actually is another breed of bird that looks very similar to a penguin, but has more feathery wings and can fly.

It is interesting to see what it would look like if they could fly.

Ahahah good one. I was starting to think it was real for a second and then I saw the video.

It looks pretty good at first, then they start the flying to a tropical place and it loses credibility. Penguins in the jungle would die. They can overheat, I think.

The BBC is just too good at these, I say.

It's sad that when I saw the title of this topic I was all "Oooh, that's cool..." until my logical, understanding-science brain kicked in and was all "Wouldn't they have known that by now?"

[Bno]

Awww I wish they could fly, it was well cute... I nearly fell for it, until they went and spent winter in the tropical sun lol

Did anyone notice that man walked the same way as the penguins?

[Laryxler]

Man I gotta stop falling for April fools things, especially when it's a few days after April fools

But I love penguins, and I like how they can't fly!

The problem is they used David Attenborough, and he's way too trustworthy!
