For some reason, I don’t think a video of a cat, seconds before it is injured/killed, is funny. ---

The cat jumping out of the window was good enough for 2 viewings. The metronome one was side-splitting. Absolutely one of the funniest videos I’ve seen. ---

That may be the funniest 36 seconds, but [this](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSK1D3bZhRs)may be the funniest 47 seconds on the internet! ---

Assuming you know about Minecraft, [this is a story about a cat](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtE9QttYqZ4&feature=youtu.be&t=12m56s). Don’t watch the clock, but the 36 seconds is over at the exact moment you think it should be. ---

So, then, my reply to the OP informing that this has been around for a while is both correct and contextually appropriate. ---

> [@moriah](#): > > So, then, my reply to the OP informing that this has been around for a while is both correct and contextually appropriate. I guess so, but also completely unnecessary. I never said it was a hot new thing. I saw it recently, thought it was funny, and wanted to share it with my friends on the SDMB. Why bother pointing out to me that it’s not new? Why is it so important to you that I know I’m not the first to discover the video? ---

> [@](#): > > The video with the music has a link to the original, in which the owner states in the description and in the comments that the cat is fine. I admit that I laughed when I first watched the first video the OP suggests at the start of this thread. And let’s face it, that music is brilliantly timed to the movements of the cat, and is also amazing well-themed, if it was based on the music from the flying squirrel suit guy. But looking back at the original video, it does not seem to say that the cat was, in fact, fine; it only said the cat did not die. Which does take the mirth out of it.☹ ---
