It's almost like you shouldn't keep wild animals as pets
Mmmm... what's not a wild animal
@@ms-in5ub maybe common domesticated pets?
A domesticated animal. I recommend looking into domesticated foxes, they're a good example of the process.
@@ms-in5ub An animal that has been bread over thousands of years to be a pet. Such as a dog or cat.
@@Twiska but surely at the begining they where wild meaning they should all be left that way no ?? Nar just lock them all in a zoo and show them how powerful we are as a species
This story is tragic through and through. Travis was given Xanax laced tea that morning by Sandra which likely contributed to his confusion. She’d been doing this to “keep him calm”. That day he was hit with a shovel, stabbed by his owner he and was then eventually shot by police. Both were people he trusted. So he crawled back to his cage to die, alone and confused. And then on the opposite end, you have poor Charla. Although she knew Travis well, she was in fact scared of him. There was once an incident where he’d ripped out a chunk of her hair! And yet, in spite of this she still went to help Sandra in getting him back inside only to have her face ripped off, changing her life forever. All in all the entire situation seemed to occur due to the negligence of Travis’ grief stricken “mother” which is a whole messed up story in and of itself. She projected on that poor animal, and in the end she wasn’t the one who had to pay the price.
So awful
What kind or specimen gives a wild animal xanax?
Poor thing not every animal is meant to be domesticated if you have too give your pet Xanax to “calm it down” maybe it’s best not to keep him as a pet for attention and fame
@@roboguard96 Exactly! Considering the side effects of Xanax this situation was practically inevitable. Pairing a wild animal with strong human medication is absolutely a recipe for disaster.
@@Nnnksa50 I know right! People assume that because we can have dogs and cats that every other animal is a perfectly acceptable pet. They neglect to remember the tens of thousands of years of breeding it took to get there. And even then there are still particular skills required to be an owner of either. If Travis absolutely had to be a domestic pet, he should have been left in the hands of more qualified people that understand how to provide him the best care but also how to keep both him and those around him safe.
Something important to note is that Travis’s owner was often giving him Xanax. Xanax can cause aggression, rage, and violence in humans so you can imagine how it would affect a 240lb chimp.
Wow
It doesn't cause aggression, rage or violence in humans directly. But I can imagine it can cause those effects in chimps
It is an anti anxiety medication so doesn’t cause rage. However it is SUPER addictive as the body quickly builds up a tolerance, meaning you need more and more to achieve the same effect.
You could argue that he was addicted to them & the Xan she gave him was not enough to feed his addiction so he was experiencing withdrawal and on edge as a result - leading to the anger and rage.
@@lukem118 large doses can cause black outs similar to alcohol which can cause aggresion
That 911 call is one of the most harrowing and terrifying thing I’ve ever listened to, just thinking about it makes my skin crawl
It’s the part where she says “he’s eating her” that really made me feel physically sick😬😭
idk how people seem to forget just how vicious chimpanzees can be, it's literally a primal, wild animal w ridiculous muscle density - why would you want keep something like that in an enclosed space like your house?
Exactly, I think chimpanzees are actually the most aggressive out of all the great apes, although I wonder if people ever get them mixed with bonobos which are the friendliest (but still should be treated with great care) if I remember correctly, and does look pretty similar to a chimpanzee.
@@stickmanmanman7170 chimps are the only species apart from.humans that commit murder
@@stickmanmanman7170 chimps are the most violent animals In the world and the most unpredictable.
Anybody thinking about checking out the phone call - DO NOT. That shit stays with you.
Yep, I heard it YEARS ago and still remember it, terrified of monkeys now
Heard it so long ago, as soon as I saw the title I knew the story straight away
There's a song called '...and then she bled' that uses this phone call as well as a creepy instrumental, that's how I first heard it, creeped me out for a while
Appreciate this comment, was curious but I’m going to hold myself off it.
To late
It was absolutely not Travis's fault, he shouldn't have been treated like a human and was drugged to keep him calm. I have so much sympathy for everyone involved, but it is definitely the fault of humans.
would love an episode of weird stories & theories with jaack, nozza, Stevie & dudey 💯
There’s a lot more to this story. There had been a major incident where Travis escaped and it was made known that Sandra couldn’t control him. Travis used to go out with Sandra often but due to him getting older and stronger Sandra decided to have him kept inside the house for about a year or two with no opportunity to leave. The day of the attack Travis had started acting up and Sandra gave him Xanax in hopes to calm him down. Xanax is known to cause hallucinations or create aggressive behavior sometimes in humans. Add in the fact that Chimps are extremely aggressive and violent.
I’ve seen this story a while ago. It’s terrifying
I remember watching BlastonfomousHD I can’t spell it lol react to it
"He absolutely mauled her..."
DUDUDUDU DU DU DUDUDU
More of this content please
The guests have their own podcast for more content like this js
My dog’s name is Muttley and he’s pretty much exclusively referred to as Fuckley
Please for the love of flying FUCK, just leave wild animals where they’re supposed to be. Let’s stop keeping these kinds of animals as “pets” 😐
Could you get James Buckley on the pod
His wife will only let him on for lots of money, she likes to spend it all, but never earns any herself
After listening to the phone call, I can't blame the police for shooting him. What was heard on the phone call was that the monkey has just killed someone, and the owner on the phone is pleading for the monkey to be shot since she believed that she would be killed next.
no, because the chimp was in the car, not causing any further harm
To be fair to the officer it makes sense that he shot him Travis had just torn a woman appart weather he was "calm" or not ment nothing he was an animal with instincts and he was on drugs it doesn't matter if he was calm in that second it only takes a minute for it to change. What happened to Travis was tragic he should never have been in that house and treated like that and he isn't to blame but I'm sure the officer was scared for his life after all this chimp he thought was safe had just ripped a woman's face off I don't blame him for doing what he did. I mean what do people want them to do handcuff him and tell him to keep calm? He'd brake the cuffs and possibly attack again he's a wild animal he doesn't know right from wrong. Rip Travis
Completely agree, who has a pet chimp? 🙈
Chimps can be absolutely brutal, wouldn’t wanna get in a fight with one, very sad what happened to Charla
We are so lucky they don't have brains like us.
Never met anyone that would like a fight with a chimp.
Not sure where you would get in a fight with one? Down the boozer!?
Idk I reckon I’d probably spark one
@@kaymharla7504 no you really wouldn't
@@kaymharla7504 hahahahaha
the timing of the intro music always makes me howl on vids like this
Still remember this happening saw it when my grandad was reading the paper
Wild animals shouldn’t be kept as pets & treated like babies 🙈
No sympathy, I’m sorry. These stories always end badly.
There was a guy on CBBC back in the day talking about how his “friendly” Rhino stabbed him in the leg with his horn one day... what do these people expect.
Moral of the story: stay the fuck away from Chimps
Moral of the story: stick to domesticated animals
Moral of the story: dont give animals drugs that cause downers and possible hallucinations like xannax because you think you know better
Love the ICMAP lads so funny!!
You don’t need to make a joke after every sentence…
happy hour more like disturbing hour
How do I watch the podcast fully and with the video and don't really like just listening to it?
I went back an researched this after the podcast, absolutely amazing story and woman!
Sge drugged a wild animal to keep as a pet. Stupidity
This is why monkeys and apes aren't good pets, they can be all cuddles one minute and then the next someone can can hurt really bad.
As soon as uncanny valley was mentioned my mind went instantly to Mark Zuckerberg…
They named him after Travis Scott cause they both don’t care about other peoples health.
Dry joke
@@smokesmokes4512 You must be a Travis Scott fan
@@RapCityco na fuck that guy. Just a dead joke tbh
Explains why Michael Jackson changed I guess.
Underrated comment 😂
He absolutely mauled her… happy hour theme tune
I wonder if the people crying about them making light hearted jokes to soften the blow of a horrific event have ever told a joke about 9/11.. imma go with most likely.
If anyone wants more detail Christina Randall has an amazing video on this!
My best mate literally has a dog called Ralph lol
Would love to see AJ3 on the pod Jack. He just said he listens to HH in his recent video so I’m sure he would be keen if you asked him.
I grew up in the era when Terry Nutkins lost finger(s) from his wild pet.
People will learn one day. 😂
How disturbing is the call
He was not calm at the end, he smashed the mirror off the car and opened the door with the intent to attack and was shot. Idk where that came from at the end, there is no one saying he was calm, the ending was caught on camera, you can here him screaming.
OOOOOO CHIMPANZEE THAT... MONKEY NEWS
Oh nah not watching this one 😬 saw the documentary on TV when I was too young and the phonecall to the police haunted me for a while
Yeah I was 12 when this happened. We spoke about it a lot in school, just hearing the story was traumatising enough
Same i was like 9 when I heard the 911 call
I remember this and the calls made to report him. Gruelling stuff.
I bet she felt that one in the morning
Get the full video pods on Spotify
When another fully grown man asks if PG tips used real monkeys it makes me remember how old i actually am.
10 seconds in fuck me depressed already
700 k subs 🙌
MONKEY NEWS!!
I had a dog i named Buckley. Best name and dog ever.
Monkeys peel bananas upside because it's easier to open
to much laughing for no reason in this just tell the story lads...
We have a dalmatian called Buckley!
Travis was a badboi
This was brutal
what made jack get his body double come in the studio lol
Cant listen to these stories when they stop every 10 words laughing and speaking? What's the point in even telling a story if your just going to talk over him and interrupt him?
It’s a podcast, may aswell read the story yourself otherwise
Just read the story urself then
Chimp on xanax. Nice combo
Who hasn’t heard of this story😭
Me
Me
Living under a rock lads?
Me. sorry your such an intellectual to know useless facts like this
Me
The man who shot Travis said in interview that Travis was outside of the car about 6 feet across from the driver’s side door he said he shot travis 4 times at that moment then Travis ran inside to his room and died there from gunshot wounds I never heard the part about Travis entering the car looking all happy Man said it was enraged entire time besting and shaking and squealing yelling loudly at him before he shot it. Now I’m confused exactly what all happened and how it went down I’m not saying you are wrong though by any means I’m just wondering the truth of it all and all the whys of all the screaming
Etc. the two story’s r almost totally opposite story’s of each other
Jaack wants to call his dog "Buck Wheat"???
You fail to mention the owner gave the monkey Xanax before the attack...?
If you get ran over by an ambulance is that good luck or bad luck?
A chimp ain’t a monkey boys
Damn
How are you laughing at this
It is funnay
Its an ape not a monkey lads ;)
Joe Rogan wants to know your location.
Ohhhhhhhhh man
"Happy hour"
What’s shocking is you all giggling and laughing through this episode
I'm ngl when you feed an animal drugs known to cause hallucinations you're kind of asking to be laughed at
It is called happy hour what on earth do you expect?
@@thomasholley9590 I didn’t realise animal cruelty or a girl getting attacked caused people to giggle like 5 year olds
@@BG-ef8sk it’s not exactly cruelty
@@thomasholley9590 giving drugs to an animal to try to subdue it every day is cruel
Hi
The pictures are mad
Why do a sensitive episode like this if you keep laughing and making jokes? i get it’s a comedy podcast but why these subjects if you keep cracking jokes
I probably would have mag dumped the chimp
Wow really.. I'd remove this video not only is this story disturbing the 4 of you giggling like teenagers over somebody's misfortune is pretty off guys!
Give your head a wobble please, I beg of you.
@@DatSheetKrae yeah I guess it's not OK to take the piss out of a charity event but let's laugh at the woman who got disfigured by a chimp.. its blatantly there on the video.
I don't think they are mocking the victim jst making light of a horrible story
@@anniemcguinn4018 maybe but I can't believe Jack would sign off on this being posted simply because there's nothing light about someone having there face ripped off.
they have empathy, you know
the story: 💀
the intro 5 seconds later: ☺️🎉
