The way they take off is exactly how I would imagine a penguin would take off.
Yeah, that was very well made.
i agree too
You dont have to imagine
They were showing this in my class and some girl was like “ yeah are you guys dumb you didn’t know they could fly? I been knew that” then she was told it was fake and practically cried.
LolB-) :-P
SOMEONE DID THIS IN MY CLASS TODAY TOO AND THEN THEY WERE LIKE, "oh hahah ya uhm i mixed up penguins with flamingos" BAHAH
@@amelia-nl5qh Bruh😂😂😂
Lmao that girl is an idiot
LOL I feel bad for that girl, but not too lol
the BBC is the best at April fools flying penguins, spaghetti trees
When I was 5 I had a teacher who loved penguins, and she always played us this video and told us it was real (we totally believed her😂) She was truly amazing, so when she left the school like 10 years later, almost our whole class went back for a special assembely for her and the assembely reached the end the principal stood up and said 'That brings us to the end of this assembely, thank you all for coming and remember that someday Penguins will fly!' then he played this video and it was honestly so emotional!
question when did you find out about the penguin video was an april fools prank?
100 million years later Antarctica will be green and penguins will be the biggest hummingbird of all and they could fly.
😩😂
@@DeletedDevilDeletedAngel the moment I saw it! But it was still a good one though!
@@Kj16V wait what are you @Kate Hemsley?
This has to be one of the greatest April Fools pranks of all time!
I KNOW
Littlejohn133 Yeah:(]
+Littlejohn133 Correct. This is the best!
he means vsause BOAT
+Littlejohn133 Nop Spaghetti tree
our english book told about this prank and I wanted to see it
Northflower OwO mine too :D
Northflower OwO same. im finnish and we have your books😊
XD
CR3ATUR3 kiva niin meilläkin
Solution Pre-intermediate :3
I laughed so hard, they even blast those glorious music like it's real.
After 13 years, best april fool ever.
I want to believe.
+boneair That's also why airplanes can't really fly.
how is it real.... (its not)😳😳
+boneair Its true the penguin fly search
Jonathan Unger 哀
Unfortunately, the video images are not real, but despite being unable
to fly, the penguin possesses other skills: in fact it is a great
swimmer and an excellent diver. In swimming, the penguin can in fact
touch the 10 km / h speed. However, it is thought that inability to fly
is a direct consequence of the habitat: in the South Pole, in fact, the
only source of food subsistence comes from the sea... :-/
I thought it was real until they reached the forest xD
Yes me too
I saw them fly over yesterday, just incredible!
Same
Same
loll
A large flock or just a few of them?
@@GrassPossum large
My scenice teacher played this video in the scenice lesson just because a student asked,「Can penguin fly¿」
They really did a terrific job on this, still looks real after 5 years. Happy April Fool's Day!
Still looks convincing after 14 years! So enjoyable!
happy april fools
Been like 15 years now or something lol
only 3 replys in 15 years
I thought that was real😂
I almost cried when I found out it wasn't real :D
Mia M. so where do they migrate to then?
@Phil Wetherick they don't migrate at all. Neither do we (naturally, holidays etc. don't count).
lmao for 2 years i thought this is real i just noticed it looks so fake omg
@@vibce migrant Humans definitely exist, or Donald trump is building a wall for nothing
@@ookam9685 for two years you thought penguins actually flew?😑
I actually cry every time I see this. Makes my heart full of joy.
You still believe this is real don’t ya
It’s fake lol
@@exquisitecinema8077 Are you that stupid really? I realise everyone thinks they're smarter, but you'd have to have an IQ of 90 to assume anyone was dumb enough to believe this. But you know what you 2 dimensional, unimaginative troglodyte? It is still touching and an empathic person gets it. This makes one cry. 90 IQ and below wouldn't even know what empathy is.
@@Sushi77899 So you'd be Exquisite Cinema's twin brother then? He's the smart one I see since he managed to take the tiny little thought the next step, but you're both utter morons sorry. Just when I think the internet couldn't get any stupider, along come you pair of doofuses. or is that Doofi? Go see if you can find a spare brain somewhere and eat it. You can't get any dumber from that anyway.
@@exquisitecinema8077 Oh and shit for brains, EVERYONE knows penguins can fly, when they want to. Same as Emus. I'm an Aussie so not only am closer to Penguins, which you only ever saw in the zoo I bet, but also emus. Go on genius, try and tell us that emus cannot fly. I dare you. 🙄 troll troll trolly troll troll. 🙂
I nearly fell for this back when I was little. It was the brink of eternal confusion. Those good old times lol
legit one of the best april fools day ever
As a Penguin, I find this extremely offensive.
freakangel123 I am also a penguin. My friends call me Peter the Penguin and I also can't fly. How rude
Petes Gameplay straight up lie
LOL here's my like to your comment, take good care of it!
Iou are so stupid
Hello feller penguins I am the all mighty BILLY!!!!!!! Welcome to the club
Whenever I am depressed, I sometimes come here and feel safe. This just makes me happy for some reason. Wanting to be free and fly away
今見たらめっちゃ合成って分かるけど初めて見たときは本気で信じちゃったやつだ笑
That is amazingly well done, especially the part when they take off, it looks very convincing
Oh really 😂, are you alive btw?
Hello are you still alive?
Well played, BBC. Well played
bruh
Thank you, Terry, for bringing so much humor to the world, even in the twilight of your adventures here on Earth.
This isnt a April fools prank, it's a recording from another universe, a parralel universe
lol
So i should search normal birds in our planet swimming in the parallel universe?
No it’s fake
@@jamestropicals8262 no shit sherlock
@@jamestropicals8262 its real ser
I'll believe this when penguins fly.
No it’s Fake
Actually I was just talking to my boyfriend 2 days ago. He said that all birds can fly at least a little. So I asked if penguins can fly too and he was like yeah they can! They're actually better flyers than chickens. At first I was shocked and then I suddenly remembered this video and asked him "wait are you talking about that video a long time ago where penguins started flying accross the sky?" and he was like "yeah......aww was that CG?" hahaha I laughed so hard that day.
I like to think you're still laughing to this day...
@@chrisjpainter LMFAO
This story sounds fake AF!
Vro u both still together?
@@thomasshelby6682 Wow this is a really old comment haha I forgot it even existed but it was fun to read again (8 years later) so thank you. We're actually not together anymore but we're both happy in our own paths. We broke up about 4 years ago =) I ended up happily tying the knot with someone else.
My dad literally thought that jokes aside Penguins would fly normally...
Still the best! Rewatching it every year on this special day!
If only they could have got David Attenborough.
He's already done that one...
I hope you're trolling. In the event that you're not trolling, it was uploaded on March 31st.
A day before April Fool's Day.
Here in the UK, it was 1st of April at the time of upload
It was a April fools prank and millions believed it. Goes to show people believe everything they see on tv.
Are you in america or something? in the uk, which bbc is literally for, it was the 1st of april
@@striderwhiston9897 BBC airs globally as well. I would assume OP is in the US, given the time difference.
@@WhatIThoughtChannel Yeah but its aimed at the british audience, it is British Broadcasting Corporation
Those penguins really said ' I believe I can fly!' 🙃
I loved this commercial then and still do today. Wonderfully done.
When I saw the penguins flying, I thought it was true and I was like: OMG! PENGUINS CAN FLY! But then when they flew into a island, I was like:
WHAT.
It's fake
Literally me😂
@@supercobraz2788 Yeah, it is. And judging by his comment, he definitely knows that by now.
LOL
@@ramseymikati111 Are you rude?
Love watching this every year on March 31. Happy 7th year anniversary BBC penguins.
Happy April Fool's Day.
Not even funny
Mekhi Terry Why are you this kind of person Mekhi? I wonder?
Jordan Nathan Because Mekhi is a dick head that's why. He probably doesn't even care about the little endangered Naugas of Africa, killed for their leathery hides used in Naugahyde covered furniture all over the world. I say, SAVE THE NAUGAS!!
The making it..m.czcams.com/video/Px-XS0UHtms/video.html
am surely watching this on 31st
Not gonna lie, you got me for a couple of seconds, and you got me good. Well made.
this is the most wholesome april fools day joke
This is the most beautiful documentary I have ever watched. Thank you BBC, you are the Holy God of documentaries.
Great to watch this from time to time. The penguin descending through the leaves at the end in glorious slow motion is the best part.
À 17 ans, je viens de vivre une première fois dans un grand fou-rire : je n'avais jamais vu de pingouins voler. Je vous aime à la BBC !
My teacher did this to us 😂 it was hilarious
SAME BRO
OMFG SAME
I wanted to believe...
Same here man I'm just seeing this 😭
:(
Me too
Not only can they fly, they also own a chain of Tuxedo rental sores.
I never get tired of watching this, and posting it on April 1st!! :D
its been 13 years AND I STILL GET IT IN MY RECOMMENDATIONS
I got pranked by my friend with this today
Pengouins can fly....but those are not the type which can fly....those are called ''manchots'' in french and those who can fly are called ''penguins''([ˈpɛŋ.gwɪn]) in french.
+Hugh Pender
That's called sarcasm. Look it up.
***** they can. Don't say idiot before you know your fact. Thank you....manchot can't fly and penguin can....in french we have manchot and penguin they are not of the same family but look a little the same....if you can read french read this....ATTENTION !!!
Seul le « Petit Pingouin », appelé également Pingouin torda, est capable de voler (il possède des ailes emplumées).
On confond souvent les « Manchots » et les « Pingouins », en raison des ressemblances physiques entre ces oiseaux (et de la traduction anglaise de manchot « penguin »).
Mais ces deux races d'oiseaux n'ont aucune parenté. Le manchot appartient aux sphéniscidés, le pingouin aux alcidés.
De plus, le manchot vit dans l'hémisphère sud, tandis que le pingouin se rencontre dans l'hémisphère nord (jusqu'en Bretagne et en Afrique du Nord
i just showed this to my mother. she smacked me on the head when i told her itr wasnt real... thank you BBC
Ya Little Fool
My teacher showed us this today... "BBC is a very reputable source!" Not today, it ain't!
Do you attend Early College? Is Mr.Price your teacher? If so, then he showed us this too.
Ummm... No.
Chelsea Shelton the world isn't that small
I know. Just sayin' though. :)
;)
... thank you Professor.
She sent us this for after our exam to relax.
It... had the desired effect.
Awesome April fools prank! I actually kind of believed it at first!
i love it.. every year i watch this on april 1st. my little april fool tradition. there's still nothing better for this day.
Have you stuck to it?
That is the most beautiful thing I ever saw. FLY PENGUINS FLY. Don't tell me it's fake, I don't care. If penguins want to fly, they can, They just got to believe!
We watched this in class and we all were awwwwwing at those cute penguins.
I remember when my first grade teacher showed me and my friends this. I remember my friend just yelling “I KNEW IT!!” Lol
Pingu is evolving...
aaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
this was genius by the BBC, one of the best april fools done in a long time
flying penguins spaghetti trees
You should mention that these penguins get enough energy for their long flight by eating lots of spaghetti !
Great joke! Had me going for a minute. Terry Jones was perfect, as always.
Does BBC have a sequel entitled, "When pigs fly?"
This was so delightful! It made my day. :D :D Love this kind of humor. Thank you!
my school showed this to us just saying "we wanted to show you this" and then just played this video
it was really well done. I loved it. I still can't get over how real it looks
I refuse to believe this. But even so I can't stop laughing
The guy’s jolly attitude just makes it so much better
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS 4 years after it was released in 2008
Flying penguin 💀💀💀
Watched this great work again in 2022
Jes
That takeoff scene is pretty convincing... until they get airborne and you look at the balance point! Well, I guess they'd have to run mighty fast to get off the ground with wings that small, anyway.
Thank you for making the video come true that penguins can fly.
Well now that explains why the penguins were at the North pole together with polar bears as in the Russian cartoon "Umka" about white bear))
Какие удивительные птицы, в них есть проявленность доброты, простоты и неотмирскости. Это гиперборейские боженьки. Как прекрасно, что они живут на нашей планете сейчас. Пусть им будет небесный и земной покров.
Боженьки, говоришь?
Still love this!!!
Mad props to the VFX house! They had me going there haha
Me: those wings are too small for flight
Penguin: takes off
Me: 😧
I thought this was so cool in my science class, came to show my mom today, and she explained that it was an April fools joke I want to die
The prof. of my University mentioned the vid in the EE1001 class. It's still amazing whenever I watch it again.
Goodbye penguins we Will miss you
Who's here from the Odd1sOut?
From the no cable tv video, there's a part with a fake description and at the top there's the search bar thing with the link to somewhere, I wrote it on my search bar and I have been sent to this, I just wanna say, thank you James.
me too
The moment one of them lifted off, I went "This is the best joke I've seen." And burst out laughing. So. Hard.
Could have fooled me though. Terry was extremely convincing (and funny)
Watching this in 2023 and it can't be more real
When I was 5 I had a teacher who loved penguins, and she always played us this video and told us it was real (we totally believed her😂) She was truly amazing, so when she left the school like 10 years later, almost our whole class went back for a special assembely for her and the assembely reached the end the principal stood up and said 'That brings us to the end of this assembely, thank you all for coming and remember that someday Penguins will fly!' then he played this video and it was honestly so emotional
Why did I laugh so hard at this?? 😂
14 years ago today.
Thank you Terry Jones.
You know what penguins are still amazing 🐧
came here because i saw a magazine in reading about april fools and bbc making a prank
They are the masters of pranks
I was legit so happy to see that penguins can actually fly, and when I found out that it's not EVEN REAL! I almost cried...
oh man they had me for a moment! good one bbc!!! :D cheers everyone!
Best April Fools Day I ever see 🤣
These are amazing birds. I first discovered these penguins while on a jackalope safari in South America. Outside of Lulu's Bar & Grill, I've never seen anything like it before in my life. Truly an awesome sight to behold.
Good for you
I knew something was up as soon as I see that Terry Jones was the narrator.
11 years passed but I still watching it sometimes)
The ood1sout brought me here, easter egg discoverd!
Same... Although i thought it was an unlisted video...
me too! link in 2008 video
i literally thought i would not find this comment but
magic
I honestly thought I was going to get rick rolled again
me to :>
This is so cute I just want to hug them and pet them and feed them and tell them they are good jolly penguins! I love penguins!!!!
This is the last proof we need that penguins really have folled humanity into thinking they can't fly, when if fact they can, hee hee :)
Very funny video!
They smell of fish and fishy shit.
I didn't know they could fly, let alone this high 😮
We loved Mr. Jones. He taught us how to fly....
Perfect!
I remember this being on Tv, I'm pretty sure it was the BBC's April fools joke
That toucan is thinking "There goes the neighborhood!"
Everything is possible with such technology as we have it today. Even flying penguins.
I was actually rlly excited to find out that my favourite animal could fly then I saw the date 😢
