Rating: 2.7/5 (9 votes cast)

In January 1976 there were reports of a phenomenon. Images showed a bald monkey named Oliver upright, looked like a cross between a human and a chimpanzee, what scientists refer to as a humanzee.  Oliver photographs shocked the world, and the media frenzy that followed became an international celebrity. In Japan, the very human-like behavior earned him cult status. In New York, some journalists described it as the missing link. Others called Bigfoot. Oliver was missing from the spotlight and disappeared over time.

Now 30 years later found alive. And with the latest DNA profile, we can finally solve the mystery of the humanzee.

  2. letspwnnubs says:

    what purpose does the sloth serve apart from being a dope eating leaves?

  3. sethorren says:

    he actually said ‘boo’. i didn’t think he would say ‘boo’. i don’t know what i expected him to say, but not ‘boo’.

  4. Nice tatoo the sloth has , lol :D

  5. garply101 says:

    That’s how you pronounce the deadly sin ‘sloth’. Bit harsh to pronounce the name of this lovely animal the same way. ‘Slowth’ sounds about right.

  6. Nah man, koalas take that prize, they sleep for almost up to 20 hours a day!

  7. cody12345249 says:

    “To save energy”!? It doesn’t do fuck all anyway

  8. uburton says:

    The sloth knows why it only shits on the ground, and it’s the secret reason to the existence of the universe.

  9. “The only shit I give, is for this tree riiiight here….s’right babes, I love my tree, she’s a happy tree….I give her some good shit’n she lets me jus’ hang round, man….don’t be like, stressin’ man…just hang round….take it eeeeeasy…n’ nibble on some good shrooms growin’ on my tree….ahhhhh….”

    Fantastic creature.

  11. Hey guys that’s my sloth :|

  12. I fucking love sloths!

  13. Alfadore says:

    Fast food? What is that?Do they mate at the same speed? How romantic :p

  14. Hey it forgot to wipe it’s ass!

    LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  16. We’ve just launched a brand new natural history channel from BBC Earth Productions called Earth Unplugged. There’s loads of amazing videos exclusive to YouTube — from epic tales of animal survival to giant bugs crawling over people’s faces!

  17. It’s spelt Sloth but pronounced Slowth, the reason many people pronounce it “Sloth” is simply ignorance or Slang. A similar example would be Football and Soccer- Football is technically correct yet many people use the slang term. Hope this helps :)

  18. DJBerserk says:

    There’s a space between the slash and the ‘a’; one function of slashes in a post without italics is to imply a similar emphasis. Also, ‘what’ is the beginning of your sentence and should be capitalized.As for the moral of your story: grammar Nazi jokes aren’t actually funny given your English isn’t perfect in that post. Use them cautiously, or grammatical Hitlers like myself might decide to purge your visions of grandiose humor.

  19. scesfizia says:

    at 0:13 you can clearly see the sloth is raising it’s right hand to strike down the intruder but then it realises it’s an david attenborough an awesome man, thus proving sloths are deadly attackers but also have compassion

  20. @gfcIaws the REAAAASON… the reaaaAAASON?!?!?! that’s not the reason… you wanna know the truth? YOU’RE NOT FUNNY. YOU’RE NOT A FUNNY PERSON. THE ONLY PERSON YOU’RE ENTERTAINING IS YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not a funny person
