I'm all about cats in zero G

Is that an artificial effect, or some bizarre NASA experiment?

Or is it some of those assholes who pay big bucks to ride in a plane that drops abruptly for a minute or two, simulating freefall, who thought it would be funny to scare the living crap out of their cat!

Either way, sgtar15 should get a good laugh out of it

that was hilarious... thanks, I needed the laugh

Oh shit, thats the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Man, I wish there was a high res version of that.

PETA will be shutting down NASA.

That was done on an airplane - nicknamed the Vomit Comet.

? What will quicktime do to your system? Or do you just hate Apple products.

I'm surprised the cat didn't kill everyone on board and crash the plane!

It must have been the nicest, most mild cat they could possibly find, otherwise it would
have clawed everyone who touched it to death.

Funny as hell, though!

Yes, PETA folks will scream, but hey, they don't matter anyway.

That's Nasa's zero G simulator plane for sure. And it does make sense to see how animals
will react to zero G. I don't see it as cruel or unusual at all anyway.

I'd really like to see them let a bird loose in the plane. But not a parrot or any other bird that
has a set of bolt cutters on its face. Something mild, like a pigeon or a dove.

Use Media Player Classic. Do a search for it. It's great and plays most every format out there as long as you have the codec.

ah ha ha ha

[sarcasm]I'm amazed NASA was even allowed to do such a terrible thing to a kitty cat.[/sarcasm]

Where is sgtar15?

See that guy on the left, that kept throwing the cat towards the wall?

Yeah, I'd like to kick his ass.

Lighten up yo! The cats orientation is all messed up. I'll bet that was an experment to see if he'd think the wall was the ground. He kept flipping around cause he coulden't feel which way was down.

That looked remarkably like the dancing John Kerry anmation the other night.

I would bet the cat is declawed.

Are you sure it's NASA?

THere's a private company that runs a plane like that so that rich people can play in simulated zero-g for a few minutes at a time. I wondered if that's where this is from.

Can you tell it's NASA from antyhing in particular?

My dog would love to see my cat do that!

Yep... Kitt E. Catt was not a happy camper.

It appears the cat did bounce off the walls FEET FIRST....

Damn critters always seem to land/bounce on their feet.... Amazing.

Been married too long, I guess.......

Hehehehehehe. Good stuff.

Not as good as Cat Tape though.

EDIT: Ah crap. Bandwidth exceeded on the link. It's funny though. Maybe it'll be up later.
