Michael McIntyre - The Terrifying Difference Between Night and Day in the Country REACTION

[@stevebills5716]

Here in the UK we get some urban foxes and hearing them screaming at night - it sounds just like a small child screaming. Oh so pleasant.

[@caroline_scotland]

I remember the first time hearing them.. thought there was a baby/toddler screaming outside my window. ‘‘Twas fckn terrifying😳😥😂

[@charlesfrancis6894]

I worked as a groundsman in South London for 12 years and maintained 2.7 acres and the grounds were home to 9 wild foxes. Two of those foxes became friendly toward s me and one entered my hallway and stole my garden glove every time i allowed her to enter my front door , she would run away and i would walk toward her as she dropped my glove and as i came close she would pick it up and run away again before dropping it . One day i lost my Timex watch in the grounds then finally gave up looking . One year later i noticed my watch in the middle of the lawn and still ticking but with almost all the leather straps chewed off , i therefore assumed that the foxes had taken it away and returned it the next summer . The foxes would sleep out in the long grass during the summer and as i passed with my noisy lawn mower they would raise their heads and then go back to sleep which to me showed they trusted me the friendly fox would use the fresh cut grass track as a running track as she ran up and down pass me . I gave them antibiotics to clear up mange which one or two contracted .

That's not bird sound in Scotland, it's drunken Jocks trying to find their way to the next pub.

[@AngelaVara-i4l]

1 of them is probably my ex husband.

[@rkw2917]

Ahh my morning coffee video ty

[@Dr_KAP]

I live in Australia (Sydney suburbs) and my backyard at night is like something out of a horror movie.. the trees are full of squealing flying foxes, families of ringtail and brushtail possums, cockatoos and kookaburras, wild roaming brush turkeys, we also have very loud frogs.. there are regular stampedes of possums across the roof at night, but we love it, it's all we know lol.

[@g.d2450]

i live on the edge of a conservation park here in Northern Ireland and most nights we get visitors from hedgehogs (cute) to foxes and badgers that wake us up trying to get into the bins (not so cute). for the last few weeks we've been getting a daily 5am wake-up call from the wood pigeons and also starlings that have nested in the neighbors eaves.. isn't nature wonderful 😂

[@grahamtravers4522]

Driving at night in the UK countryside is actually easier than in the daytime. You can see the lights of oncoming vehicles around bends, before you see the vehicles themselves.

[@55tranquility]

Silence can be deafening! I grew up in a village in the countryside, I used to do a paper round super early in the morning - in the summer, particularly in school holidays one thing I vividly remember is how quiet if was apart from the birdsong which was so loud, I loved it. In the winter not so much, it was grim 😂

[@yootoobnz8109]

I live in rural New Zealand. Sometimes I jump when I hear a random sheep burp in the pitch black at night. It's quiet, maybe too quiet, but yes sheep sometimes burp.

[@LoneRanger100]

I’d love to hear a sheep burp!

[@yootoobnz8109]

[@eddiec1961]

Good reaction thanks that was funny, take care.

[@watchreadplayretro]

Haha Brilliant! Have either of you (and I guess I mean more Nick here) ever watched Evolution with David Duchovny & Orlando Jones, the Ka-Kaaaah! Ka-Kaaah! that Sean William Scott does is exactly what McIntyre reminded me of here lol Stay safe guys (or at least get good sleep!)

[@dilljay11]

both of them wearing grey makes the video look better for some reason i think its just satisfying to me

[@Georgeolddrones]

It’s got to be the owls through the night. I hear them where I live. It’s probably the owl’s calling or the fox but that’s like a dog bark 👍😂🇬🇧

[@GBURGE55]

Me & my partner live in London with all the usual sounds. We do hear lots of do foxes screaming for half the night. One year on holiday we stayed in this house in the middle of nowhere in North Devon for a week. One night we heard an owl on the roof hooting away & we thought how nice is that, the sounds of the night time countryside, until after the third night in a row & now getting annoyed that it was keeping us awake I ended up throwing things at the bloody thing 'cos it wouldn't shut up! It was SO dark we couldn't even see the damn roof, I ended up dislodging a roof tile. Owl was still there the following night! The countryside isn't all that it's cracked up to be.🦉

[@mjheffy44]

Trust me, i live in the Oxfordshire Countryside , in the middle of absolutely nowhere, its pitch dark and foxes, deer, badgers and the birds make such an incredible noise, but thats good, if someone out of the normal routine is around your house, it does deathly quiet.... thats far worse....after 50+ years of country living you get used to it..... ish !😂

[@PeleRana-pp6zc]

I live in a city in England. I hear all the sounds that Michael mentioned even at 2 or 3 in the morning. It’s nearly summer now and the birds start tweeting at 6 am consistently throughout the Morning. I don’t notice it too much as I’m used to it. Also lots of colourful birds in the garden in spring and summer. Owls and foxes at night. I do live in the suburban part of the city but in Uk almost all areas have a lot of greenery and sounds of nature everywhere unlike USA!

[@kirstygunn9149]

I live in a town surrounded by farms and meadows, so we have the urban areas with cats and dog and family homes, and then at night, we get visitors to our gardens like hedgehogs and badgers and sometimes the odd fox . We currently have hedgehogs living under our garden decking and will see one or two walking around when the cat goes for her last patrol before bedtime .

[@dallasgrant]

I slept through our smoke alarm one time, it was literally outside my door even, and when I did get up my mum and sister were like what happened, how did you sleep through that. I can be dead to the world sometimes, nothing will wake me.

[@farmaccount1653]

Great reaction :) For me, one of the funniest 'night sounds' is when you have 'many' gravid cats all meaw-moaning at each other. I think the term 'Cats chorus' might apply. It sounds funny and disturbing at the same time. When you want it to stop.... let the dog out :)

[@jeremymerrifield7244]

The Postal Code story is so true. I worked for a huge hotel , with a Golf Course ,in Cornwall Englsnd. But had to give the Postal of the Pub half a mile up the road for people trying to find us

[@cyrus2728]

Bird song at 2am in Scotland is the native mating call after the nightclubs shut.

[@Badgersj]

The sound of Mrs Fox on heat - nothing so horrible, even someone being eviscerated.

[@ajkgordon]

Bravo on Edinburgh!

[@dazza9326]

You can relate to this now..... We have so many nocturnal animals in the UK, foxes and other animals take over at night.

[@oliversherman2414]

I love Michael McIntyre 😂

[@markedmonds8694]

Thanks for the Mcintyre guys

[@Ingleborough111]

When my parents were first married and there was still rationing after the war, Mum woke my Dad and said 'I think there is someone downstairs', my Dad said 'ask him if he's got a cigarette'.

[@DavidSmith-cx8dg]

Foxes are now common in our city , it's rare to experience complete darkness even looking out to sea . I can always notice when I'm inland the atmosphere seems strange .

[@gavingiant6900]

A Vixen (female fox) during mating season sounds like a woman being ended with the sound they make. I'll never forget when some of us went camping and one of my mates faces when he first heard it, priceless.

[@helenwood8482]

Townies are adorably frightened of everything.

[@bilbobaggins706]

Looks like William and Kate were having a good time!

[@jrswinhoe58]

Visiting my cousin in Oxfordshire is terrifying travelling at night

[@daveofyorkshire301]

Last night I had a cat in my front garden at 3am, it sounded just like a baby screaming its head off... I wake up to birdsong...

[@stephendisraeli1143]

And one of his children could have pointed out that bedrooms are still terrifyingly dark in the country. I grew up in a village without street-lamps.

[@chrisaskin6144]

Michael McIntyre omitted to tell us that when he bought "a little place in the country," he actually meant in the Serengeti. Foxes do make some loud, weird and eerie sounds at night time - but they do that whether they're rural or urban foxes. As for cats, they will shriek loudly if they're confronting another cat. I have a cat and the other evening he was out and I heard "screaming," I went to the window to see if he was having "handbags" with another cat with the intention of making the "third man," but the garden was empty. It was then I realised the two lesbetians next door (I live in a semi-detached and the walls are paper thin) were "getting it on."

[@PwnstarUK]

Scotland is really cold and wet BTW its sunny about 3 days a year

[@joealyjim3029]

Its badgers you want to be wary of, youll be walking down a lane at night and a badger will just jump out of the hedge and start sprinting at you 😂

[@helenwood8482]

I used to share a house with my big brother. Nevertheless, when I heard what sounded like a burglar downstairs, I didn't bother to wale my brother. I grabbed a metal candlestick, crept downstairs, threw the door open and yelled, "Get out of my house!" False alarm, but if there had been someone, j wa ready to attack.

[@jeremymerrifield7244]

[@aaronmicalowe]

That screaming bird isn't a bird - it's a fox. Sounds exactly like a scream from a horror movie. But it's a fox. I only discovered this after one followed me down the road and then screamed at me and I saw its mouth open and Adam's apple move as it did it.

You should google fox screams. Sounds like girl shouting in terror.
