I don't trust you communist bbc so I will watch it myself

Fun fact: Just as baby cats are called kittens, baby goats are called "kids".
I mean tbf standing on 2 legs is harder than standing on 4

I like how the mother is teaching her kid how to do it on his own. That kid did well.
Couldn't comprehend how they did that climb, simply incredible.
Surely someone could find a way to release enough of that water so they don't have to do this.

@@DeletedDevilDeletedAngelI'm sure you know what that meant.

Itâs tradition to comeback and watch this video every ounce in a while
It's amazing to watch these animals climb a steep walls for minerals. Nice video. Nature takes care of itself in any many ways.
Sabbing ggane
This is kinda video that no one searches for it but can't resist clicking it when it pops up in the suggestions
my question is why cant the people filming them help them in case they fall or something lol all they do is watch
We need a witty term to describe that type of video. Internet? You have your task, get to it!

This is literally the equivalent of riding a horse up a mountain in Skyrim.

@@Randall_D_Clark No kidding. Would make riding up mountains so much easier lmao
Lmao wooow I was literally thinking the same thing, did not expect someone to mention the horses of Skyrim
Kkkkkkk
Walk the seven thousand steps? Na bro we takin the horse
As a person afraid of heights, my legs go numb just watching this đš
Amazing animals to say the least! đ
This is indeed nailbiting. I am pretty sire throughout history many of these animals have died because of slipping, but the fact they do this is quite impressive.

They fell so these can climb lol
Predator: âHe is stuck, he canât go anywhereâ

Top comment!
I only clicked on this video to say that! Damn it!
The background music starting at 2:38 almost till the end, the narrator's voice, the goat's licking sound, I dunno but somehow strangely calming and relaxing love it.
I absolutely need the music... do you know what music is that??
@@venkateshp1609 dunno but gave me elder scrolls oblivion vibes for some reason
^^^ kinda sounds like some parts of Auriel's Ascension from the game ost I guess
@venkateshp1609 , the music isn't on CZcams, but it's called "Song of the Manatee" by Benji Merrison. You may be able to find it on Google!
EDIT: Just searched it up to see if it's still on his SoundCloud and it has been removed unfortunately. A shame really, as it is a beautiful piece of music!
it's amazing to see that nature pushes us to surpass ourselves
Parkour guy: I can climb buildings.
Ibex: That's cute
đđđđ
đđđđ€Łđ€Ł
Lmao
Ibex can't climb a building though lol.
Lmao đ
The way heâs running down he isnât scared at all.
I wonder what the goat sees and thinks. I wonder if it knows that one miss step will lead to their death.
@@stevenvalle3013 Probably. I mean they must have a survival instinct at some point they must be aware that heights can mean death. But they must be confident in their abilities and not have fear of heights.
@@stevenvalle3013 They also use mountains to evade predators
Takes a pet like no problem
Doubt they fear or feel death, it's more of just completing there goal for survival.
This is the only animal that makes me look stunned whenever I watch them doing this.
Holy cow!!! Looks like an animated scene altogether but these animals are gifted with remarkable physical and mental abilities.

Luckily these goats are not carnivores they just want some salt. Imagine being chased by a carnivorous goat that can climb a vertical dam.
Lmao
A very steep dam.
There is a torture method which involed sprinkling salt water on somebody feet and let the goat lick it off.
@@Siegberg91 oh no
i think you might dont know what vertical means.

Jesus Christ, Marie! They're not rocks. They're minerals.
HUMAN: "They're defying the law of gravity!"
IBEX: "I never studied law."
Lol that seems like a humourous situation. The human yelling at the Ibex and the Ibex yelling back
"WHY ARE YOU DEFYIING THE LAW OF GRAVITY FOR A ROCK?"
"I NEVER STUDIED LAW! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
He could go toe-to-toe on Goat Law.
If not studied or knowledge of law you can definitely challenge or break the law.
The ibex never studied english too.

It seems like this has been recommended to basically everyone in the past 4 hours or so, judging by the comments
Shut up woman

BBC must have spent a fortune to make this video hence the exercise perhaps
Not only they are walking on a dam, they are even running on it.
goat powerđ
Jumping on it
They can even rotate and dance on it.
Grammar! Not only (are) they...etc.
I was completely unaware of what goats could do. amazing creature. Now, I'll go get some beers wearing goat fur.
No land animal on earth, can match this superpower.
Iconic species, and a wonder of nature.

They really donât defy gravity. Gravity is still pulling them down. In fact itâs gravity thatâs making them stay on the slope. Itâs evolution that made it possible for them to keep balance on such a deep slip and small ledges.
