Mar 9 2009Kangaroo Broke Into Home, Mistaken For Ninja
A kangroo recently broke into the home of Beat Ettlin while he and his family were sleeping. He mistook the kangaroo for a ninja and began to pummel the 90lb beast.
The 42-year-old told Sky News Online: "I just saw this black thing. I thought it was a lunatic ninja, an intruder. It just fell on top of us on the bed.
Finally, Beat was able to subdue the kangaroo in his son's room, and kick the leggy bastard out the door.
"When I got in there, it was against the wall by the window, trying to get out I think so I just jumped on top of it. I got him in a headlock and pressed him to the ground.
"I had to open the door with one hand, pressing the kangaroo to the wall with the other hand. Finally, the door opened and I could actually release it.
Good looking. Of course, how could you not kick a kangaroo out of your house with a name like Beat? That would be like being named POW and getting your ass kicked by a koala that broke in through the attic.

Thanks to Alex, Jazzy 8 Ball, and Victoria, who have all punched ninja-roos in the pouch and lived to tell about it.

The first line of the story is a true give away..." I just saw this black thing." You were dreaming about being back in prison dude.....or maybe when your wifes old boyfriend Bubba got drunk and showed up to tag it one more time.

Kangaroo's are pure evil. Its like the fused to animals together. Created at the hands of the devil I say.

FAIL!! This post fails on so many levels. Who the hell cares!?
This is just like that time the Griswold's got a tree for thier family room and there was a squirrel in it. Everyone was enjoying a holiday dinner when they decided to see what the odd noise was coming from the tree. Turns out it was a rabid squirrel that began to cause an incredible commotion. The dog got all excited and started destroying the house trying to catch the rodent beast.
Eventually Clark was able to lure the little bastard toward the front door and get it out of the house. When he opened the door, there was a lady who said she had wandered off the set of Seinfeld and was lost, needing directions. No one had heard of such a show so they just let their massive dog chase the squirrel down her blouse and had a good laugh.

The most entertaining thing about this wholse story is that the guy's first natural thought when he heard the window breaking was "it's a ninja" ahhaha not a thief or even a koala bear, but a ninja.
australia must be crawling with crazy ass ninjas. you gotta be careful or they'll nest in your garden.

Hehehe! Many animals are physical superior to us folks! We just spent a lot of energy in our brains!
17. Lowlands - March 9, 2009 4:54 PM
The guy is looking very small from that camera angle!

@1 I always thought that they are just really mean sheep.

@18:
That kangaroo can be lucky he isn't a sheep, mate! I'm really dying to know what the hell is going on in that picture!
@7:
+5 for the Skippy the Bush Kangaroo reference - if something like that broke through my window in Oz, my first reaction would be "it's Kylie!" (♫everybody needs good neighbours"♫♫...)

I'm guessing he realized it wasn't a ninja once he felt fur...though who knows, maybe that's how australian ninjas do their thang...

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max had money in the pocket of a jacket, and it got stolen by a Kangeroo. Max spent the rest of the day following the stupid kangeroo around, with a donut eating hacker.

lies.

Haha a ninja, i can't see the resemblance.
And if a kangaroo broke into my house, i'd keep it, and i'd name it yoshi, yeah yoshi.
24. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - March 10, 2009 1:44 AM
What I really want to know is, who photoshopped out the guy holding the camera in that picture? He must have been really tall!
25. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - March 10, 2009 1:45 AM
...either that or that's a wallabee punching a midget.
