When That Sled You’re Speeding Downhill in Is Remote-Controlled by a Chicken
 |
Out of some insanely perverse sense of masochistic justice, the folks at Rovio decided that years of letting humans fling animated Angry Birds via slingshot needed to be atoned for…by letting birds fling humans around. But since birds have no arms, those crazy Finns did what any normal person would do…
…rigged motion sensors to the chickens’ heads, then sent three humans downhill on a ski slope at breakneck speed, in sleds whose directions are now totally under the command of blissfully unaware chickens, enacting a scheme which is literally bird-brained. That’s something normal people do, right?
