Squirrels A Mission Impossible !

- Many years ago my father tried and failed to feed birds but not squirrels. His attempts were pretty clever (he was a designer) but he always fell short and the tree-rats feed on his nuts.
When he passed away I had a go, like a tribute....what you see here, apart from dizzy, sick squirrels starts at phase ten (yes 10) and after 3 months of trying I resorted to a 7-iron and a personal attack.....and yes the squirrels at my nuts!
The guy running at the end made me laugh so hard. Only because his frustration and anger of defeat finally got the best of him... cant blame him, these squirrels are smart.
My old boss did this, he loved seeing how they would overcome the challenge and in turn challenged him to come up with new pieces to add. His whole backyard was a proving ground for this.
I think the music encourages him...
🤣
lol

BHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Two years later, this comment still holds up well.
You gotta give the little guy credit, he's strong ¬ a quiter!!!;)
It's spelled q-u-i-t-t-e-r, doofus!
This squirrel is teaching a very valuable lesson: "Persistence is the key to success"
It is nearly impossible to deter a squirrel. They learn from failures and mistakes. They size up traps -defenses and how to outwit them. Squirrels are survivors.
Oh
Yep, they’ll learn to run up snatch traps, no pussy will deter them. No good using a cat. Meeow ☺️
issa rat
They are til they meet up with Chris Notap from RUclips. He has them outsmarted everytime.
Once he got through the traps, no human should have the right to intervene! He won it fair and square!!!
+Sudaraka MallawaArachchi Totally agree. He is so pathetic. Chasing after it in the end. What a looser.
+Sudaraka MallawaArachchi You're right, that's when I get the 22 rifle. I get more squirrel gravy this way.
+Sudaraka MallawaArachchi Not really. That is even the WHOLE POINT OF THIS!!! This isnt a challenge for the squirrel to pass and get a reward you dummy. He built it to keep them away. I would chase them off too. Its sad to see people backing up vermin.
+Olde Basstard so what makes squirrels more of a vermin than birds?
+Olde Basstard Thank you, thank you. At what point in history did vermin become adorable cuddlies?
Mr Innkeeper, please don’t be angry with the squirrel for outsmarting you, give him some credit. Lol 😂👍
Thanks
I rescued a baby squirrel last spring. I have a new appreciation for the rodents. She had as much personality as any dog I've had. I reintroduced her to the wild within a few months, she still remembers and visits me
I’ve been a Squirrel Mom twice. I adore them.
@@CobraDove1111 oh they're awesome, they live 15-20 years (natural life) and they def remember their "people" 🥰
Yeah we have one who revisits our garden every year and barks at my wife when she is planting our garden. It thinks we are digging up its buried nut stash. It is going to be really mad this year. We covered the entire back yard with woven weed barrier so we don't have to weed so much.
@@robinsommerhauser4256 Squirrel: Ha weed barrier, is that all you got 🐿
Nothing but tree rats that will get in your attic, chew on electrical wires and start fires! That’s why I have a .177 pellet rifle.
Cracking soundtrack to a hilarious video. Better than watching Tom Cruise any day.
That is halarious! Those crazy squirrels do not give up.
It's beautiful!!
@@barfsoup itz FântastiÇ.🌰🐿💨💨🏃👈🙈🙈🙈
“Give up” isn’t an option
It’s “try or die”
That’s nature
That squirrel's like..."What else you got!?" HA!!!
Sometimes it's hard to admit it but life really isn't that much worse after being outsmarted by a squirrel.
I’m always pulling for squirrel
Moose can fend for itself
iq of a squirrel... 10 million
Booh dont chase the squirell off when it finally made the track! Deserved the reward not some angry baboon coming after it
Damn true.
I don’t think the birds even get a chance to eat. Too much going on.
I'd just give this squirrel everything it wants after such an impressive stunt
gotta hand it to the little critter - he is persistant!
Dirk Baeuerle squirrels are relentless!! they don't give up!! trust me you will give in before a squirrel gives up!!
Lmao
He just kept trying, but the squirrels beat him!
Well, it is a rat of sorts.
Well it's free so what is it that you chased him out you could of let him feed a bit don't you think that he deserves a good feeding after he's been troubled to get his reward
My old friend Noah Touchton would have loved watching this. He was always coming up with a new angle to battle squirrels.
That Squirrel deserves some reward for going threw all that work!!!!!!!!
This mission, if you choose to accept it...
the feeder will self destruct in 10 seconds
Squirrel: I see this as an absolute win!
Solution:
One metal pole
One metal cone under the pole, wide skirt side facing down (pole goes through cone opening)
One metal cone above the pole. make sure it wide enough to cover feeder, not wide enough to stand/crawl on (so use a cylinder feeder) so 45 degrees or more
Oil up the top metal cone and bottom.
Thats it!
And a slinky!!!!
Then make sure it’s not near any tree branches so they can jump straight onto it?
Solution: shotgun ? 🤷🏻♂️
Smart squirrel, life lesson:- 'Don't give up on your dreams"
Look up cross examined
Squirrels are cute until they get into your attic, where they can chew on your house wiring and cause a fire.
Thanks for the positive motivation.
The movie _Young Einstein_ shows young Albert growing up on the family farm in Tasmania. One day, Albert noticed his dad was very busy doing something. "What are you doing dad?" "I'm going to flood this valley son." "But dad. That will drown all the little animals." "Yes son. In one go."
I really like Einstein's father. Squirrels are vermin. They chew things and cause huge damage. I'm going to have to replace the back window on my house. They carry fleas, ticks, and bot flies. They carry viruses and bacteria transmissible to humans. Vermin. They deserve to be killed.
@Rick E.S. 😂😂😂
@@puppetsock The vibes you sow are the vibes you reap.The only exception is covid-19.
puppetsock Ah yes, such great logic. We, as a species, also cause a lot of damage (if not more) to other animals, carry bugs, and carry bacteria, viruses, and diseases, which are transmissible, not only to other species, but *gasp* also to other humans! Does that mean we deserve to be killed too? And that just about every other animal does as well?
For one thing, other species do not need our “approval” in order to survive. Nonetheless, squirrels play a vital role in forest regeneration and seed dispersal, so they help maintain a healthy ecosystem, and we need a healthy ecosystem in order to survive, as it supports the environment we live in. Love them or hate them, other species have just as much of a “right” to exist as we do, and history shows us what happens when we try to “play God”, as some say, and attempt to wipe out species (I highly recommend looking up the Indian vulture crisis and its consequences, a great example of what happens when a species rapidly vanishes across its range. The poisoning was not intentional in it, but the consequences of this event do show how drastic wiping out an ecologically important native species can be for the environment. Vultures are keystone species, and they are extremely important in maintaining healthy ecosystems). If you wish to discourage squirrels or “control” their populations near you, I recommend putting up nesting boxes for owls, playing audio of predator sounds every now and then, and sealing off all possible entrances into your house.
Let the little hard working sweetie have what it so courageously earned!!
That would be great if they ate a few pieces and left, but the little twerps eat EVERYTHING, and even chewed at the ports for the seeds.
@Mostly everything Sucks We feed the squirrels peanuts and then they try to take the bird feeders completely over. I don’t think yo realize just how bad they are.
No. They eat everything in site.
One squirrel will empty a feeder that would otherwise service dozens of birds of many species for hours or days. The squirrels are very aggressive with birds (the innkeeper’s FRIENDS, for whom he goes to trouble and expense to attract to his feeders). It is like “Why not just give the crack gangs enough money for their stuff, and they’ll leave you alone.” You wanna try that, don’t be being NEAR to me. Squirrels and crack gangs be WAITING IN LINE.
“Those house invaders had such a brilliant plan, they should get away with all the murders and everything.”
@@TampaDave perfectly stated! I absolutely agree with you!
Those squirrels are smart and determined! They just don't give up!
For Sure!
Good example how to keep moving forward in life. Never give up!
🤣😂😂 I started dying as soon as the squirrel made his dramatic ass entrance onto the wire. A part of me thinks the squirrels might take enjoyment climbing your obstacles.
Absolutely right 👍💯
*NOBODY* can ever stop a squirrel on a mission.😂😂😂
That was hilarious. That squirrel definitely was determined. What a smart Little Critter. I would love to have him in my yard. You should set up his own little Feeder because he really deserves it for all what he goes through just to get that little bit of seed.
After so much struggle, it should have got the reward .
Humans are so mean to squirrels. They are hungry, too. Good for them should be put out out, too. My bird visitors and squirrels share and it is darling to watch them.
I had one squirrel show up.within a week there were 7. No thanks. They spread the news!!!!
Yes.if you ever saw a squirrel in the middle of the road not knowing which way to go when you approach in a car,well one actually got inside of my glass bird feeder with a lift up metal top and he about killed himself trying to get out when he saw mei laughed him all the way across the yard.
I feed squirrels specifically, theyre awesome
That squirrel is a master on 'if at first you don't succeed, try again and again'. LOL.
The Mission Impossible theme playing in the background was funny as hell 🤣👍
At the end I can relate. they do piss ya off. lol
Mad Innkeeper part had me dying laughing. Wonderful video.
Squirrel out engineered the engineer. Inkeeper should have conceeded let squirrel have his winnings.
Sounds similar to news everyday
I have to confess that I laugh my teeth off when the mad innkeeper showed up because I'm also one.
The squirrels initial leap when he begins the obstacle course has me dying
You said it! It's worth watching just to see him or her fly in for a rough landing! 🤣🤣🤣
He defeated all your contraptions! Amazing squirrels! LOL!
I'm so glad people are willing to devote so much time & energy for my squirrel-hating pleasure.
The squirrel have definitely deserved that food after that agility display.
Omg its 1 am i woke my husband and kids bursting out with laughter when the guy ran after the freaking squirrel im still crying dude omg best video ever!
I am eating currently at a restaurant and started laughing too when I saw him lol
@@ssj2camaro21 who watches youtube in a restaurant?
@@tfGypsyKing people whith unlimited data
FuX - but it’s a restaurant you’re supposed to be concentrating on the food lol. Unless it’s something like a “McDonald’s restaurant”

I wish I had RUclips 30 years ago. When I lived in NJ, I matched wits with Squirrels for years, trying everything from flying saucer top, greasing the pole, etc. These bastards figured out every obstacle and drove me out of my mind. I live in AZ and I am so glad I do not have to match wits with these bastards anymore.
I about died laughing watching this. I go through this every year. Mine isn't as elaborate as this one. They will jump, run, spin, hang upside down, and puke until they get what they want. Which is bird seed. Even though my back yard is full of nuts underground. They still want my bird seed. So lets say this really makes me sad to the birds not the frinken squirrel. I almost break my ankle every year from holes due to the squirrels and their food. Believe me there not going hungry. They're to finken smart and determined.
+Ms K. Johnson But when they hit the 110 volt trap they always quit.
Thomas Hanson
No no electricity... That's just cruel.
+Ms K. Johnson What made bust out laughing was the guy running out after the squirrel...
+Ms K. Johnson use cayenne pepper. Birds cannot taste it, but squirrels can!
Erin Where would I put the pepper. Some how they get up a pole. hahahaha
This squirrel has more determination than a freshman college student undecided about which major they will do.
poor squirrel worked so hard! GO SQUIRRELL!
gooo!!
Dorothea808 This guy is a jerk.off
I just sprinkle the black oil sunflower seeds on the pavement, and let the squirrels, sparrows, chipmunk(s), doves, robins, crows, bluejays, chickadees, feed to their delight. Been doing it now 10 years, track the populations, and enjoy the company. One squirrel and one chipmunk are almost tame. there was one chipmunk who used to feed a mole a few years back with bread crusts and seeds. Love it. Never had an infestation problem either. Poor baby squirrel. Jeesh.
Just feed the freaking squirrel too... and those spikes look dangerous. Real nice...
You ever bought a squirrel feeder? The diameters different
Loved this. :) If we could get our kids to be this persistent, we'd never have high school dropouts.
Yeah, but as they are not hungry enough,,, they'll never get this determined !
Those nails and holes you put on the disc' are just handles for the squirrel to grab onto.
Yep, need 120 volt potential between every other one!
Because 80% of humans are basically morons and squirrels are brilliant.
Yeah it would work better with no holes and no nails. Just use a wider circular board, and make sure it's smooth so the squirrel can't get a good grip with his little claws.
Persistent squirrel, but the disks are not smooth. The holes give it grip, the wood itself gives grip, and the spikes work like handles.
Use smooth waxed disks with rounded edges, they use the same for rats on ship ropes.
+Robin Campfens Use sharpened aluminum discs. If they try to get a grip, they'll get cut
+Lindsey Bennik Well personally, I figure it will work best because they wont come back. But if you're someone who has more empathy for animals, you could use a dull disc covered in WD-40.
+Tiaan Fourie Its a wild animal. People keep saying that if the squirrel is smart enough to get past the trap, then it deserves to eat the rewards. If its about who is smarter, then clearly a sharpened disc wins that argument.
Exactly.
This is far far better than watching the two legged squirrels on TV, this is actually way more educational , informative, and entertaining than the TV squirrels in Washington DC and Hollywood. These squirrels are much more intelligent and interesting.
Only mad because his design was a fail!
Lmao the dude running at the squirrel at the end had me dying
That was funny as hell especially at the end...lol
Our huge back yard maple tree was once home to many squirrel families. I worked in the city across the river, so I used to trap squirrels and send them many miles across the river to drop them off before work each morning.
After a few dozen, I noticed that the population never decreased.
The absence of squirrels just created a vacuum, so others came on to take their homes in our tree.
I threw in the towel and made peace with them. They continued to have their way with our garden.
Best video, I've seen so far!! The music is just the cherry on the top!
I think it’s apparent that squirrels were the true inventors of Parkour.
May your father rest in peace. He would be very proud. ♥ Much love and Happy Easter.
...the epic battle between a man's birdfeeder and the extremely tenacious squirrels...
A lovely clip and by now, a classic.
Now all we need is for the squirrel to become a Scientologist and we're all set to make the next Mission Impossible movie.
How do you know they aren't already???
😂😂🤣🤣👏👏
Love the soundtrack....such determination...lmao....gotta respect the I WILL SUCCEED attitude.
Boy that's one persistent squirrel.
I can't stop myself to imagine Squirrel hanging on rock cliff with paws widespread like Tom did.
Squirrels gotta eat too! If you don’t want “critters” don’t attract with food!
I keep seeing these, feeding birds but act like a squirrel is a rabid lion throw him a peanut 🥜
If people wanted to feed squirrels they would have put out squirrel feeders instead of birdfeeders.
Norm E that’s not how it works Norm. They all forage and hoard for winter. They’re called animals.
@@norme1850 lol
We just blast em away when they think they can chew on the bird feeder and nock it down
The comment read ,I think the music encourage him . I had know idea what to expect .I laughed so hard , thankyou .
The squirrel is Smarter them the homeowner., the squirrel is ready for the Olympics
I just discovered from Brome Bird Care the "Squirrel Buster...the seed feeding openings shroud allow birds to feed, but the weight of the squirrel forces the shroud down, spring loaded, closing the seed feeding ports. Some large birds affect the shroud in the same way. So far so good even if the squirrel manages to get to the seed feeder past the shroud. 😊
I think this video is hysterical
The squirrel seems to really enjoy the challenge 😁😁
01:11 Foolish Humans, aren't aware that they are dealing with Squirrels from a Special Commando unit.....
One of my greatest joys was to watch all the different types of birds thought out the year that visited our bird feeder, and my disappointment of an empty feeder after a squirrel found its way through all my numerous misguided attempts to stop it.
My greatest regret was discovering all the rodents the feeder attracted, and after settling in, they found ways into our house, my work shed, our garden shed, my truck, and my wife’s car, chewing their way into my engine’s air filter, chewing my engines hood insulation to making a nest in my cabin intake filter, chewing my wife’s brand new Golf Alltrack VW’s hood insulation and making nests deep down along the engine block, and crewing their way inside the car. To this day, when the engine warms up or when I turn the heater on, I still smell rodent dropping.
Its because you chase them away. They know you have food, they cant get the food you leave outside for the birds, so they move inside to look for it.
Ive fed squirrels for years and not once had they tried to get inside the house, or shed.
@@AlphaQHard
I’m sorry you misunderstood what I meant when I wrote “Rodents”; what I meant was mice.
“My greatest regret was discovering all the rodents the feeder attracted”
It’s not that the mice or the squirrel’s got into the feeder; the mice were attracted to the birdseed that the birds dropped from the feeder onto the ground and into the grass. It’s what happens at night under the cover of darkness.
Gary Santos
Ahh I got ya. Yeah mice are never fun.
......And they shall call the squirrel “NEO”. He is the chosen one from the Matrix! 😁
🤣
That squirrel deserves those two whole tubes of seeds for being persistent, super intelligent and brave. Feed all animals equally!
What great agility these creatures possess. When one did it fast enough, he soon learnt the trick over the wheels. That squirrel deserves a bag of nuts. 😄
No joke. I actually saw a squirrel do the army crawl on our back patio for a few minutes before it finally decided to hop the normal way.
thumbs down. mad keeper was cheating. he beat the obstacle course
It wasn't an obstacle course with a reward at the end. It was an attempt at preventing these rats from eating the feed that was purchased not for them but for birds.
Right lol
Ed Campbell they arent rats,they actually help the environment by plenty trees from the nuts and seeds that they spread
They are beautiful 🌰🥜🐿🤗🤗😍
Michael Roy yep, the little fella deserved his nuts 🥜
I usually don't think music enhances a video... but this selection was perfect!
A question on the design here. Why does the inner wheel have holes in it? Seems the fuzzy little ninja is going to make use of them.
Jeff Drake the fuzzy ninja did make use of them. Lol
i suspect we are getting a petty view about what actually went on. Looks like the designer only wanted to showcase and entertain not stop the squirrel completely. That's what these holes tell me.
Jeff Drake - the holes are for the wind to pass through.
I'm in NZ, are squirrels protected? Why not just shoot the little tree rats.
@@donreeves977 Don't waste bullets and it's just really overkill, to be honest.
These squirrels are quite intelligent. It seems that as they were trying to reach the seeds, they seemed to learn from the obstacles whenever they try to reach the bird seeds. I'm also amazed by how persistent and determined they are.
The squirrels are just LEARNING and, since there are no risks, they eventually figure out what they need to do. If you want to prevent squirrels, you've got to make the learning risky--incorporate some penalties as they learn, THEN you have a chance!
Not so bad having a squirrel brain, eh?
Love the music!!! Perfect for the ocassion
I was pulling for him the whole time!
Man I’d be glued to the window all damn day if I had this. 😂
Golf clubs are a bad idea. Squirrels are far too fast for that. A pellet gun would be much better... No noise, no mess and if done correctly it can be dead before it hits the ground.
This is the best one by far... The music is perfect... Lmao... 😂
This is exacly how God gives us missions.
It's all about challenge with fun.
Bless for all fellow living being.
0):-)
Squirrels are tenacious and will do everything in their power to get at the seed. My view is if they've managed to pass an obstacle course like this then they deserve a bit of a reward. You then go back and make it more difficult for them to to get it until literally no squirrel can do so.
XD That Innkeeper. LOL
I have to admire the shear determination of the squirrels!
I was rooting for the squirrel and, lmfao!
That should be the next american ninja squirrel 🐿️
that poor squirrel must be starved to try that, just feed it dude.
no rhe squirrel isnt starved they will do almost anything for food even if they just filled themselves upthey do it so they can hoard it for winter which is a main reason we dont let them use the feeders that are for birds because the birds get less food and are much nice to look at lol
>feed invasive species
Yeah, great idea.
For improvements, don't have any holes in the second, larger circle barrier.
And have a funnel shaped barrier with the larger end towards the bird seed.
So if he makes it past the larger circled one, he will have the funneled shape one immediately afterwards.
Lmao, the squirrel beat you. Great video..
Some petroleum jelly on that line would help. Squirrels hate getting the stuff on their paws. I used it on my window sill.
It worked!
Uhhhh.... maybe if the larger second disc DIDN'T have holes drilled in it for the squirrel to use as hand-holds, it would be a sound design... What the hell are they there for anyway?
Because he didn't make this to prevent the squirrels from feeding, he made it for clicks and more clicks.
I was going to comment the same.
or maybe the fucktard didn't want the squirrel to suffocate. :·}
Two reasons I can think of off the top of my head: 1) Help prevent that one wheel from tearing down the whole line in strong winds; 2) The more holes in the wheel, the less overall mass/weight of it, all while still retaining it's structural integrity.
Белка- молодец. Смекалка, физика на высшем уровне. Отдать ей эти баночки с орехами. Она заслужила эту награду. 💪💪💪✌️👍
Ну да, чо там тех орехов!!!
Как раз только для белочки!!!
The only issue is that squirrels will stay there and eat almost all the seeds.. Every day!!
Good Job the music from Mission impossible fit to the T, And I think Jim and the rest of his team would be more than proud to have this guy join them for that was some of the best work at overcoming things that would be impossible to some
Love it only wish the innkeeper would have let him have his meal after all he did work so hard for it and put his life on the line witch each jump
thanks for posting
Check out the Black label And from the 1980s with the Mission Impossible theme and its also a clip from a Program called Daylight Robbery.❤️🤣
Bigger wheels, some grease on the line and electricity should do it !
LMAO ! The music with this video made even more funny !
