Imagine a raw crawling out from under a car’s hood and jumping onto you. It actually happened to one guy!

It was captured on video and now that video is naturally going viral. You would not want this to happen to you. It had no plans to go anywhere. He ended up having to get out of the car to get rid of it with his hand! Everything seemed to go wrong for him in this video. It’s one of those “better him than me” moments you’ll see online from time to time. Hopefully this isn’t a common problem.

Rat Crawls Out From Car In Viral Video

You can hear the panic in their voices when the rat crawls out of the car and onto the from of the vehicle. How did it get there? What’s it doing? There are so many questions and unfortunately very little answers right now. The video already has more than 29,000 views on YouTube and that number is sure to keep climbing. You can see the video shared by Steve Jetson on YouTube below. Hopefully this never happens to you on the roads.

That could end up being dangerous! Imagine if he had a severe fear of rats. It’s a common fear! Sure, they aren’t bees. But lots of people are still scared of rats and for good reason! Weren’t they allegedly responsible for the Black Plague? That was a pretty big deal and certainly shows how gross and disgusting they can be. You don’t want to mess with rats. You definitely don’t want them crawling out from somewhere in or under your car. Where did it come from? How did it get there? Is it alone? Maybe some answers are better left unanswered and unexplored. This might be one of those examples.

We talk all the time about the dangers of finding an insect or animal inside your car while you’re driving. What do you do? It would be incredibly hard not to panic! You don’t want to…but you do! If you panic you only increase your chances of getting hurt but it would also be really hard to just stay calm if there was a bee inside your vehicle. Thankfully, this rat wasn’t even inside the car and was on the outside–but it still caused problems. One has to imagine it would have been even worse if the rat was discovered inside the car. That would be a different issue entirely.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.

5 Animals In North America That Could Kill You

Oh, America the beautiful. Across our wonderful continent of North America you’ll find amazing, adorable animals. However, you’ll also find creatures that are incredibly dangerous. Here are 5 animals in North America that could kill you.

Now, just because they can kill you doesn’t mean they’re out to do it. Yet, it means they have the possibility of doing so! So, it’s best to be aware!

5 Animals In North America That Could Kill You

Well, some of these animals you’re probably already well aware could kill you. However, some of these animals you might not know can kill you. Or, maybe you don’t know they’re actually around! Hey, like NBC used to say, “The More You Know.”

Naturally, there are many more than 5 animals in North America capable of killing you. There are countless. Some may be big powerful animals. Others may be poisonous. It’s important to know what’s out there. These animals could be lurking in your basement. They could be outside your home. Or, they could be all the way across the country from you and pose absolutely no risk of danger or harm.

Of course, when you only select five animals to talk about, you’re leaving a lot on the cutting room floor. So, you won’t hear about any sharks on the list. We know they can kill you. Additionally, jaguars, mountain lions, and American Bison didn’t make the list. That’s right. Bison can kill you, and they have! Not only are Bison huge animals, but they also have horns! Several ways they can take you out. It’s not just limited to a stampede.

Furthermore, I’m counting an “animal” as anything in the Animal Kingdom. They may be reptiles, amphibians, insects, and more. I’m counting them all as animals. I don’t want to hear that “technically, arachnids aren’t animals” or anything. Let’s just relax and have fun.

    Alligators are dangerous animals. They’re ancient, smart, and deadly. According to USA Today, alligators have been responsible for 33 human deaths in the last 50 years. Not a great way to go. They’re quicker than you’d think. Then, sneaky, too! Uh oh.

  • Arizona Bark Scorpions

    These small light brown scorpions are deadly! They have venom that is painful and potentially deadly. You don’t want to be stung by one of these.
