Joe Rogan Watches New York Rat Video w/Mark Normand

My favorite video in New York is the rat that's killing the pigeon. Did you ever see that video? No, I never saw that. I saw a pizza rat. Yeah, pizza rat ain't shit on pigeon killing rat. The fucking rat's killing a pigeon. Wow, it's like the woke brigade. They're attacking each other. Yeah, very similar. Taking the pigeon down and attacking it. The pigeon tries to flood away and the rat fucking chases it. I didn't know rats were predatory. I thought they were mostly just scavengers. Yeah, I guess so. They would actually go after a live thing and attack it and kill it. Yeah, desperation man. Was it in the subway area or was it on the street? I think it was on the street because I don't think pigeons actually go into the subway. That's a good point. For the most part. Good point. Unless they get fucked over and they don't want to get out. Right. Seen a few in an airport before. Oh, here it is. So here's this pigeon and this rat is trying to walk off with this fucking pigeon. And it's as big as him. That's what's crazy. What a bitch ass pigeon though. Like, come on, flap it up. They have some big fucking teeth, these cunty rats. You know, they never stop. It's got to be by the neck. Look at that. They never stop growing rats teeth. Really? Yeah, they have to keep, that's why they're always gnawing because they're partly, it's filing them down. Give it a goog. Jesus. I know any more animal facts than you. I actually do remember that now that you bring that on. Ah, sure you do. Nice pull there Jojo Rabbit. Look at this fucking thing. And the pigeon gets away at one point slightly right there. Oh yeah. But look at him chase it down. He's like, no, no, no, bitch. No, no, no, bitch. Get the fuck over here. Damn. The pigeon's so damaged he can't get away totally. He can't fly. Oh. So eventually he drags it through the hole in the fence and fucks it up. That's the scariest when you go into their lair. And the pigeon knows that. He's like, I can't get off the street. Look at it. It's mounting him. It's got his back. Bite in the back of his head. That's like kabib. Yeah, very similar. Holy shit. Just can't get away. He's smashing you. I just didn't know they killed things. Yeah. They only just ate stuff that was laying around. I thought there was so much food in New York City, they would just run around eating everything. They eat each other. I do know that. Oh really? I do know that because I had a trap. I lived in Encino and I was renting this house and the house with a lot of rats. And I would leave my garbage in the garage and put it out in the morning and I was seeing these rats. So I set a trap. Not mice, rats. Fucking rats. Big rats. So I hear, snap. So I go out to check and there's a fat boy that's got his head crushed in this trap. In the trap? I mean he's dead as fuck. So I'm like okay, I'll just get it in the morning. I don't want to deal with that right now. So I get up in the morning and the only thing that's left is the tail. Oh. They ate everything. They ate everything. Wow. There was like the feet and the tail. All the guts, the body, the spinal cord, everything. There was just like a stain and the tail. So rat tails are so disgusting that even rats don't eat rat tails. There's a lesson there. You hear that rednecks? Yeah. Get rid of those rat tails. But I'm talking to you Theo Vaughn. Here's the move. You poison a rat, then get it in the trap, then they eat the rat, then they get poisoned. That could be something. Yeah, you could. But the problem with poisoning rats is a lot of times it doesn't kill them immediately and then coyotes get it and then they get poisoned and then mountain lions kill the poisoned coyotes or they kill the rats. So owls also get killed by rat poison. It's a real problem with owls because a lot of people leave rat poison outside their house and then the rats eat the poison, they get weakened, then the owl comes in and eats them. Wow. Circle of life. Circle of life. Damn. Did you, did you live in New York? Yes. You had mice, I'm sure. Oh yeah. Yeah. I lived in New Rochelle though. I never lived in the city. I couldn't afford to live in the city when I lived up there. It's like right next to the Bronx. Okay. Yeah, that was mice, man. Oh yeah. They're brutal and they really, I'm so scared of them. I know it's like a wussy thing but when they're running around I just jump up on the table. Yeah. Eek. Eek. I can't handle it. Eek. It's brutal. I have to call a masculine friend to help me. Even when they're on the trap screaming I don't know what to do. I take a broomstick, I stick it to the sticky trap and then I go outside and put in the garbage can. Just while they're still alive? Yeah. So you let them just suffocate out there or whatever? Yeah, yeah, that's on them. You figure it out. It's a weird system, right? The ecosystem of rats and mice and humans. It's a strange thing. Yeah. There's a lot of them. And they've killed us with the plague. Apparently that was all rats. Well, it's the fleas really. Fleas from I think Crimea came over on boats attached to rats and then the rats ran through Europe and fucked everybody up. Crimea River. Ah, you can't help yourself. I can, I'm sorry. I love words. Did you ever see the Netflix documentary called Rats? No. Oh my god, you have to. I don't know if I want to. You have to. You just go, what? First of all, they all have diseases. Oh yeah. All of them. I mean, you just don't come in contact with them. But if they bit you, you're fucked. Most rats are fucked. Yeah. They did all these tests on rats in different parts of the country too. And New York City is, I think they said, it's either the number of rats is the same as the number of people that live in New York City or the biomass. I'm not sure which one, but both of them are equally terrifying. Yeah. If it's the biomass, it's actually more terrifying, right? Because it means there's so many rats that it's the same mass of bodies as there are of human beings. But I don't think they really know. I mean, are there any fucking surveyors down there in the subways? How do they know? How could you know? Also, if you measure the weight of all human beings and all ants, it's even. Yeah, I know that. Oh damn, I thought I had you again. No, I knew that one. I love a fun fact. That's a weird one, right? Yeah. It's a little freaky too, man. They said if an ant was our size, it would be faster than a Ferrari. Whoa. Give it a gook. Yeah. Callen at one point in time, Brian Callen wanted to be, what's the type of person who studies entomologists? Is that it? Is that it? Phrases? Right. Etymology is words. Entomology is study of insects. Oh. Yeah. And so he did some time in the jungle. Oh. And he'd have to put turpentine all over the posts of these platforms that the tents would be on, because there were so many ants on the jungle floor that you, he said he was lying in bed, you could hear the ants. Ah. Ch, ch, ch, ch. You could hear them walking. In sync. Yeah. And when they get on something, there's so many of them. Yeah, they just kill. They kill elephants. Come on. They climb up the elephant's body and go right into its ear and just start eating its brain. Ah, man, what can an elephant do? It's just taking it on its hands to move it. It's not a goddamn thing it can do. Unless it's really close to a giant river and it could jump in and try to drown those little cunts. Yeah. Oh, man. Right? Brutal. Brutal. It's amazing. We've lived as human. How did we survive primitively? Well, we got lucky, but then we got smart, and when we got smart, then we started overpopulating. Yeah. Because then we figured out all these different ways that nature was kind of keeping our bodies in check, keeping our numbers in check. We have systems for rats and mice and all these different things to keep them in check. Well, nature sort of had a way to keep humans in check. Ah. Predators, diseases, starvation, injury. So you're saying we beat nature? We beat nature. Which is probably why we're so fucked up mentally, because we're not supposed to beat nature. Well, we're a little too safe, for sure. For sure. We're all contained in these buildings where no predators can get us. We all get doughy like little fucking human water balloons. Right? It's a suckling of discomfort, and we have to fix it and work on it, bitch. Yeah. We complain. Yeah, we're getting our jaw shaved down to look prettier. Oh. Just digging through rats in New York. They don't know how many there are. There's a system added of 250,000 to tens of millions, but this is a new trap that was put out in Brooklyn. This is a video of them, I guess, testing it. All right. It's an alcohol trap where they'd fall into this bucket of alcohol and they drown. Ah. And here in the video, that's why I'm showing it. They open up these buckets. Oh. It's filled with dead rats. These guys have to touch these things. I wouldn't trust it with just little rubber gloves on. I know. I know. So it's just full of dead rats. Can we use those? We should be able to use those for something. For fuel. Yes. Burn them to heat your house. Might as well. Yeah, why can't they? Look at them. Scoop it out. Oh. Good size. It's a good size rat. At least feed jungle or what do you do, zoo animals or something. Right. Like a snake. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
