You’re telling me that Kiwi was strong enough to haul all those trees up the side of a mountain yet you think that he died from the fall? Trust me, he’s fine.
My 8 year old found this and we had a few tears together, it’s a powerful piece. But on the flip side, Kiwis do what Kiwis do in real life, but making a short about an Ostrich wouldn’t have worked. Whoever conceived this was a genius, it teaches empathy and understanding beautifully.
Fun fact: this was the very first youtube video i ever saw in my life. My sister wanted to show it to our mother, while little me was sitting on her lap. I saw the video and cried. Then i asked my mom why i cried and my mom answered me: "because you have a heart." Still one of the strongest memories my entire life was built on
I got introduced to depression by fucking doki doki literature club ,that game introduced me to a whole new world of feeling I've never felt or at least never knew what they were
Kiwi is still alive. I know they are. They have to be if they had that kind of will power. Maybe they’re simply flying on a never ending cliff. Not gonna lie I got extremely happy watching this when the orientation rotated to show him flying just to show the sweet bro what he always wanted to do.
Is no one touched by the fact that the kiwi bird possibly spent it's entire life nailing trees to the side of the mountain just to feel a few seconds of happiness?
Do you not realize that is how most of us spend our life? Working towards goals to achieve a "happiness"? Some of us get to fly for a few seconds while the rest end up dying sticking trees on our journey up the mountain.
Lyric 737 in addition, he/she is diving head first into the ground at insane speed just cuz they may have legit body muscle doesn’t mean they can survive a head first impact
I would not say dark, I would say sad. Dark has a very negative connotation to it. Kiwi wanted to experience flight even if it meant it's death. If you play ddlc or .exe games or watch tokyo Ghoul those are "dark". This is more sad and emotional than dark.
its all in the facts, you can be ignorant but the fact is how come a bird that size lift all those threes by itself, there is no way a simple fall ended it @@BlokeOzzie
This is without a doubt of of the saddest, most sobering things I have watched. The joy of achieving a dream cut with the sorrow of knowing its the end, what a mixture of emotion. An analogy for so many people, and one that mimics many scenarios we find ourselves in throughout our lives.
Oh my God! I'm traumatized because my son just reminded me that I showed him this video when he was a kid, and I can't believe it, because that kiwi's audacity is deadly. I don't know what I was thinking!!!!
This video isn't about dying or any of that nonsense, to me. It's about finally, for once, just feeling 'ok' for a second. Even if it's a lot of hard work, even if the consequences are dire, the peace of letting go and feeling free is simply just priceless.
God was cruel when he created Kiwis without wings, I'm sorry but it was rude.. I hope God awards and compensates Kiwis and other flightless cute birds when they go to heaven after their deaths
Brenda princesa Lindaa lmao the kiwis had functional wings but their natural habitat had no predators so they had no need to fly, they simply evolved to not need them so their wings became smaller smaller.
@@ijustwannabepwrtofyoursymphony Yeah come to think of it, that kiwi's gotta be so strong by now he could probably just jump right back up the mountainside. Clearly, that's the redemption arc of this bit.
One of the first TH-cam videos I ever saw. When I was 16, I found it cute, whimsical, and silly. He was finally flying and the thud meant he crashed, possibly not being alright. This hits different at 31. I'm crying like a child, it's a bittersweet, saccharine feeling but I love it. So much hard work, passion, and sacrifice, knowing his ultimate fate one way or another, for a few seconds of joy and the accomplishment of a lifelong dream. He can truly say he was one of the few Kiwi ever, perhaps the only one, to know what it feels like to fly. Oh Kiwi, fly high little one, you deserve it ❤️
Yep. I'm 31, just saw this for the first time, just cried like a child. I probably saw it in highschool, but don't remember because I couldn't yet relate.
I see everyone saying that this makes them cry but I'm happy for the kiwi. He achieved his goal and accomplished something great. His joy before jumping and happy acceptance of his fate are uplifting. To not fear death and to meet your end with satisfaction and determination is something we should all strive for. Also you bet your ass if he wanted to live he could have set up a net. Dead or alive he succeeded.
Or as the Klingons would put it... Kiwi died with Honor! We shall sing songs of Kiwi! Qapla! Kiwi, you have a place with the Honored Dead in Sto-Vo-Kor!
This is a video with a happy and sad ending. He knew he couldn't fly, so he nailed a lot of trees to the cliff. He threw himself off a cliff, just to experience what it was like to actually fly for the *first* and *last time* . He was happy to the point of shedding tears because he could fly like a bird in the trees, but he must have also known that it was like an act of suicide.
I didn't understand him crying as a kid, I thought he was crying of happiness, I was happy seeing that the Kiwi finally achieved his goal, Now, i'm here in my room crying because the Kiwi died.
Kate Cat I mean, from my perspective, that is what happened. He pulled all those trees so that when he fell, it would look like he’s flying on land like normal. He flapped his wings even though they clearly weren’t flying anywhere. From my point of view, he wanted to feel like he was flying at least once, and managed to do it.
aside from all the humorous comments, this video has such a deep and dark meaning behind it. Without hesitation, we jump but a tear rolled down his cheeks meaning he has to sacrifice his life just to live the dream he always wanted.
@Plastic Age Exactly. I love movies. If I don't like a movie I don't swallow it. (Ratatouille quote), and still this is genius. Simple idea, but executed well
Let take a moment of silence for the bird who spent his whole life, nailing trees on the sidee of a mountain, just so at the end, he can end his life, just to live his long life dream...
I cried 10 years ago and here I am now crying again. I think it’s how happy he is at the end knowing full well the cost that makes it so heartbreaking. ):
If you think about this deeper. The birds whole life was involved with him wanting to fly. Then when he flew, he shed a tear because he was going to die and he knew it. That’s life. Even if you do what you want, you’re gonna die anyway. W storyline
but... i dont know, if you want to achieve a dream is because you want to have a good live, he dont even try to survive to try to "fly" again, its like he just wanted to die, even if he dont express that emotion, to me it feels like he just desided to die and then he choose how
i think maybe (and this is me using my "the curtains were blue" moments in lit class) its because the kiwi is a small, defenseless, flightless bird, not to mention i think endangered or at risk? a lot of artists suffer with mental disorders and out of that, many more die young, self inflicted or not kiwis in general could be connected to artists feeling trapped in a world telling them their trade is useless, theyre defenseless in that sense, and many times unable to escape people telling them that or maybe its just "kiwi cant fly funny" who knows
@Kalwik Lensak Bungee cords are not ever that long in the first place. If you used a cable for a fall that is 10+ seconds, my guess would also be that either the cable snaps and you fall off, or the momentum build up to the moment you stop would push the top and bottom of your body in the direction of the floor and the middle of your body upwards, with such force that you would indeed snap in half. Maybe in one piece, except for your bones that would definitely snap. All this assuming it's just tied to the middle of your body. Otherwise, another possibility would be that the cable wouldn't go straight down and you'd hit the wall, or you'd go like a pendulum when in the bottom and then hit it anyways. And if that doesn't happen, I'm sure you'd just die because of the sudden artificial stop at the bottom when the cable finally extends completely, that his body is most likely not built for anyway. I don't know enough about this but I'm pretty sure there's no way he'd survive that with a bungee cord.
Well, I think it’s more the story of a bird who wished something so bad he was willing to die for it. In the end, he didn’t cry out of sadness, he cried of joy that his dream was fulfilled. He went out with a BANGER F for my boi
2:05 bro him bringing out his tiny wings to mimic flying (and honestly this whole video) has been one of the most emotionally devastating moments of my life.
This is without a doubt the most inspiring, sad and beautiful video I've ever seen. You can't help but feel something when you watch it. I feel like this video made me understand art a bit better, art is supposed to make you feel something 👏🏼
@@augustocampos8504 Los kiwis no pueden volar, entonces coloco los arboles en una montaña y salto para sentir que se siente volar. Por eso va llorando, cuando llega abajo se muere
This bird literally lifted dozens of trees up this cliff the size of the empire state building. He’s not dead. He’s only practicing for the real thing.

Kiwi: hold my beer

He didn’t die aldough the fall hurt
@@juanignacioarvelourrutia1924 No it definitely died
He really did not die.
“Hold my tree”
His desire to fly was greater than his fear for death

Why do you haunt me, depression kiwi?
Youre 17 lol
@@deivisnx Woah dude, you did the math, congrats. :0
My brother showed me this video and l cried too. (
I was 4 instead...but I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND AT FIRST, AND NOW I FEEL THE MOST HORRIBLE HUMAN BEING ON THIS EARTH.
I'm pretty sure this is the TH-cam video everyone watched at one point, between the years of 2006-2011.
JulzJulzzJulzzz yeah
I'm surprised I didn't.
yep. Whatched this around 2009
the poor kiwi just wants to experience the fun in flying..
Got this video in recommended? Welcome to the club!
Yes i did
Hi there!
Hi all!
Cuz he got Its dream but then die!!!!!!!!
Hi, I'm new in the club
Between this and Nugget, it's becoming clear that artistic types look at kiwis and immediately feel their hearts shatter.
ivy the kiwi? is another example of this phenomenon I think, though with a less tragic ending
Or maybe they just want to see kiwis suffer
Ecologists look at kiwis killed to endangerment by human-introduced invasive species and have their hearts shatter as well
i think maybe (and this is me using my "the curtains were blue" moments in lit class) its because the kiwi is a small, defenseless, flightless bird, not to mention i think endangered or at risk?
a lot of artists suffer with mental disorders and out of that, many more die young, self inflicted or not
kiwis in general could be connected to artists feeling trapped in a world telling them their trade is useless, theyre defenseless in that sense, and many times unable to escape people telling them that
or maybe its just "kiwi cant fly funny" who knows
If Kiwi had only considered the bungee cord.
OH NOW YA SAY SOMETHIN
@Kalwik Lensak Bungee cords are not ever that long in the first place.
If you used a cable for a fall that is 10+ seconds, my guess would also be that either the cable snaps and you fall off, or the momentum build up to the moment you stop would push the top and bottom of your body in the direction of the floor and the middle of your body upwards, with such force that you would indeed snap in half. Maybe in one piece, except for your bones that would definitely snap.
All this assuming it's just tied to the middle of your body. Otherwise, another possibility would be that the cable wouldn't go straight down and you'd hit the wall, or you'd go like a pendulum when in the bottom and then hit it anyways.
And if that doesn't happen, I'm sure you'd just die because of the sudden artificial stop at the bottom when the cable finally extends completely, that his body is most likely not built for anyway.
I don't know enough about this but I'm pretty sure there's no way he'd survive that with a bungee cord.
Well that works a lot better than making a pond at the end of the cliff
This is one of the best animations I've ever seen on this website. It's beautiful.
The history of depressing bird who decided to commit suicidal acts
The irony from the animation meme community.
Well, I think it’s more the story of a bird who wished something so bad he was willing to die for it. In the end, he didn’t cry out of sadness, he cried of joy that his dream was fulfilled. He went out with a BANGER
F for my boi
Thats because him only wanted fly :''(
You mean depressed, right?
Nuggets*
2:05 bro him bringing out his tiny wings to mimic flying (and honestly this whole video) has been one of the most emotionally devastating moments of my life.
TH-cam please don't bring back the pain of this video to me
You know i always loved that kiwi
nah, one of a kind animation I've ever seen in my life, simple but it has a deep meaning in our lives.🙏🏼💕
Dude I watched this over and over when I was young and cried with the kiwi still do

This is without a doubt the most inspiring, sad and beautiful video I've ever seen. You can't help but feel something when you watch it. I feel like this video made me understand art a bit better, art is supposed to make you feel something 👏🏼
Kiwi was so good, they named a fruit after it
I see you everywhere nowadays
Newby Ton and a bird

Watching this when I was 9: "The poor kiwi! This is so sad!"
Watching this when I was 19: "This is a very elaborate suicide..."
Hes alive
Trust me
True
me: *takes notes*
Oof I'm also 19
This bird literally lifted dozens of trees up this cliff the size of the empire state building. He’s not dead. He’s only practicing for the real thing.
"That's not flying, that's just... Falling with style!"
its not lootboxes its suprise mechanics
*Suicide is badass!*

Wow, this is the oldest, yet, the saddest video I have ever seen on TH-cam
Zuzanna Sączek yea and also meaningful
I remember seeing it a few years ago and thought WTF DUDE WHYYYYY
Watch Me at the zoo.
What about the one where Nyan cat dies?
i’m 24 years old now and this still breaks my fucking heart
35 and I still haven't recovered.

lol we have the same profile pic
I think the last time I saw this I was 12 or 13, and I'm 24 now! I just remembered it somehow.
I wasn’t born yet I’m almost 9 now
Awww He did all of that for who knows how long, just to be able to fly, and then died. BRAVE ON LITTLE KIWI, YOU LIVED YOUR DREAM!!!!!
*sheds tears*
very true but still sad
He didn't die! He is still falling to this day!
Srsly that would be awesome
Ashlyn McClendon That bam was a gunshot!
+SharkTheMegalodon I know and to think I love shooting guns
This video was so universally praised, that they named a bird after it.
Edit: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!
And then a fruit
And some people
That kind of bird is named kiwi.
@@nanalala7869 r/wooooooooosh
and a song by harry styles
That’s a one strong kiwi, legit pulled thousands of trees to the side of the mountain and im very sure the fall was a scratch for him 💀
fr
I bet he's gonna get up and do it again 💀
yeah bro, that fall was exercise, the splashing sound is him hitting the ground so hard that the solid ground around him splashing like water
@veryveryhuman5626admit it he's dead kiwi was a great bird
@@mariakhristineanog7696admit kiwi has always been stronger than you 💪
@@LambdaMiscellaneous I admit but he's dead nothing you can do but just say
This is more impactful than anything thats come out in the past 5 years
This is really impressive for a 2006 animation. When I realized what Kiwi was trying to do, I was about to tear up.
2006?!?! 😮 the very first time I watched this film was in 2011 on my first semester of a Animation and cried… today I showed it to my boyfriend to challenged him and I cried again. This is really the most simple quality animations I’d seen and so powerful emotionally.
It already dead
I understood, he wanted to have the feeling of being able to fly like other birds at least once in his life, even if it cost him his life
@@agentesmith3 or he wanted to commit suicide
You’re telling me that kiwis can fly
