Fenton, FENTTTTTTTTTON - Oh Jesus Christ!

[Kenny]

Brilliant

[Sea King]

Saw the video earlier in the week, quite amusing.

*Although, I only wanted to enter this thread due to the sheer brilliance of the title. Well done,

[capercaillie]

Deer oh dear.

He'll get a kick up the be-hind if the law catches him, and then he will be in a rut which will cost him a few bucks. He'll probably say "have a hart, I haven't got that sort of doe, and if you make me you can just fawn-icate off". Naturally the dog was just fallow-ing its hunting instincts and having played hide and sika, it moosed have decided to run away from its 'antler. Hoof-inks a hefty fine pri-stag will have cervid him right?

Well that wasted 20 seconds of my day. The man is an idiot, funny but not!

Oh Jesus Christ

[GUNMAN]

A good way to get your dog shot!

I saw that on the news, absolutely hilarious, great thread title

[Hatstand]

First (original) clip I do not find funny at all.

But having seen it... makes the Jurassic Park one absolutley priceless, and had me literally laughing out loud.

Heard this whilst sat bored at Boscombe yesterday. Ferne on Radio 1 kept playing it over the songs .. Did get anoying after a bit, but the full clip is quite funny haha!

Maybe I've just had a sense of humour failure, but I don't see what all the fuss is about...?

[Dragon Rapide]

Mmm - some people are conditioned to laugh at almost anything I suppose. I thought it mildly amusing and then lost interest. I must have missed something as I failed to understand why the clip is entitled Fenton and the dog's name is Benton........

[Hatstand]

I failed to understand why the clip is entitled Fenton and the dog's name is Benton........ :sad:

Most news/papers are reporting the name as "Fenton" eg.

A labrador, which became an internet hit, is actually called Fenton and not Benton as previously thought, according to the boy who shot the video of it being chased by its owner.

Benton, the dog who became a YouTube sensation for his deer-chasing antics, is actually called ‘Fenton’, it has been revealed
.
.
Ali Goodyear revealed the dog was actually called Fenton, not Benton which has been trending worldwide on Twitter and other social networking sites.
The 37-year-old corrected: “It’s not Benton it’s Fenton with an F.”

Not that you can believe anything you read in the papers, of course...

[Dragon Rapide]

I think I just lost the will to live...............

[Spiny Norman]

I think the humour stems from the unlikely situation. A sedate and tranquil park, where animals are kept, is interrupted by a dog that has got free from its owner. The owner is then seen, in a scene similar to those endured by Basil Fawlty, where life is getting out of control and he has little control over it, although he must take part, leading to his exasperation. The cries of Fenton! can be seen as a desperate plea for order to be restored to the world, by a desperate man.

The blasphemy also adds to the clip, plus you don't get to see the running owner until quite late on, which brings an element of bewilderment to the experience of the viewer.

I love it!
