I don't get it.

From my interpretation:

A flightless bird... he does all that work(I don't understand the work part honestly), and then jumps off the cliff. Our view changes to his perception, that he is flying at breakneck speeds... actually flying, something he being a flightless bird has hoped for probably all his life. And at the very end, when he passes through the white fog, you hear a subtle poof/splat sound as he collides into the ground below, probably now dead. He's achieved his goal in life, but it killed him.


For the makers actual opinions, he suggests going here.

I haven't read that yet.


EDIT: Aha! So that's what the work was for. Man, such an awesome video.

"Kiwi!" is an animation about a Kiwi - a type of bird that cannot fly, who spends its whole life working towards achieving his dream. The kiwi strived to create the illusion that it was flying over a forest as it soared down through the sky from the top of a cliff. Thus, the kiwi spent what must have been its whole life nailing trees to the side of a cliff. All this, to fulfil its one dream of flying, even though it was technically unable to. There are several powerful messages behind Kiwi, but mainly, it makes you think: no matter how absurd and seemingly out of reach your dreams are, what's stopping you from achieving them? Kiwi's had a huge online success, with currently over 1.75 million views and 9000 comments on the online video site 'YouTube' in approximately just 3 days. The animation has been recently featured on YouTube and currently ranks in at the #1 favorited video in the arts and animation category of all time. As I'm sure you'll agree, "Kiwi!" is an inspiration to us all.


Holy crap that's awesome. Looks almost CGI.

Definitely not real, that's for sure. I mean, you look at it and the way he falls back down is entirely unrealistic and CGI. It also goes unusually fast.

Unless you were being sarcastic, in which cause I applaud you.

Their CG people do a horrible job. It doesn't even look realistic in the other videos on their website.
 
More pictures!
I don't have speakers on the computer that I'm on.
 
Well then.......

US Marine holds a bottle of water out the back of his truck, while a swarm of Iraqi kids chase him. After running for what seems like a mile & a half, one kid is still going. The marine dashes the bottle off the back of the truck, and some other, older kids pick it up as the runner tries to get it. Well harsh.
 
Bush said:
Our troops know the historic importance of our work. One Army specialist wrote home, "We are transforming a once-sick society into a hopeful place. The various terrorist enemies we are facing in Iraq," he continued, "are really aiming at you back in the United States. This is a test of will for our country. We soldiers of yours are doing great and scoring victories in confronting the evil terrorists."

That young man is right. Our men and women in uniform are doing a superb job for America.

bullshit

Awww they start them so young: http://www.break.com/index/little_dove_hunter.html :D Is'nt that cute that the responsible dad is teaching his 8 yr old son to fire a shotgun and kill living animals? We have a problem in America. This problem is the South and hunting. Maine and New Hampshire have the same thing too as the South: rednecks. *You also see this commonly in third world countries like Africa. The only difference is the kids are shooting at humans with ak's. Not much of a difference though is there?
