It's so damn cute. :smith:
That water looks like ass. It should not even be swimming in that. I guess we can say that the Berlin zoo just busted a knut.

knut up or shut up
I wonder what caused his death. :frown:
I read it as "Kunt" at first. :saddowns:

Yup, seems so. :saddowns: Here's a YouTube mirror for those that want to see. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlC1KIlVYyw[/media]
Aww poor guy. That's kinda sad to watch. At least he got 4 more years than he would have in the wild.
Is it just me, or did Knut have a stroke?

That footage is heartbreaking. It went from "Hahaha, look, he's trying to chase his tail" to complete sorrow in seconds.
:saddowns:
Looks like he had some kind of mental breakdown.
Looked like a seizure.
May have been a heart problem or something.
The really fucking sad thing is, Knut potentially could've been saved if the zookeepers could have reached him before he drowned.
[QUOTE=JaegerMonster;28759226]The really fucking sad thing is, Knut potentially could've been saved if the zookeepers could have reached him before he drowned.[/QUOTE] I don't think they could just jump in after him; he could attack them and he probably weighs quite a bit too.
[QUOTE=J!NX;28689964]I know, but it seems more shitty puns/jokes in human death threads, than animal deaths.[/QUOTE] It's because animals can't groan in response to a pun.
[QUOTE=ChristopherB;28760662]I don't think they could just jump in after him; he could attack them and he probably weighs quite a bit too.[/QUOTE] Yeah I'm not sure what the go was. Berlin Zoo isn't small, I don't imagine they have zookeepers on standby for every exhibit.
Sad thing is that the guy who brought him up and looked after him died of a heartattack some years ago.
Why has no one posted the song yet?
So cute.. and fuzzy. I wanted to give it a goodbye hug. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNWrFmCCfXw[/media]

[QUOTE=Fangz;28732031]Is it just me, or did Knut have a stroke?[/QUOTE] yes you both had a stroke
Knut died of brain damage. No clue what caused it yet.

[QUOTE=SgtTupelo;28768679]Knut died of brain damage.[/QUOTE] 'Twas a lie. [QUOTE=Marlamin;28724663][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlC1KIlVYyw[/media][/QUOTE] Twisting and reeling from the emotional shock of having learnt how he was separated from his mother, not by her death or his capture, but rather by her dejection of him at such an early age, Knut contemplated the last throes of life and plunged himself into the deep, eerie abyss below - this time, to never resurface again. Knut committed suicide I tell ya.
It wouldn't surprise me if a group like PETA poisoned him.
