    Definately the best Fainting/Myotonic Goat vid yet! But I'm kinda confused why these guys don't know anything about genes. I would think they'd have some resources to inform them of how to sustain their herds with good breeding and such.

    • @nikkizzlefoshizzle
      @nikkizzlefoshizzle 3 роки тому +1

      No So when the farmer said "Gene" then the one guy said "Jin??" 'Cause that's what he initially thought the Farmer was implying, until he got some context. Basically- the word Gin/Jin (many different spellings of it) means - Spirits/Ghosts/demons/etc. That's term that most Africans use to refer to Any sort of Paranormal spirit or entity.
      That's why when the Farmer essentially said "[They faint because] They have a gene" the other guy's thought process as like... "Wait, the goats are possessed/ have a demon inside of them?" It was def a comment for at least partially-comedic relief, 'cause they are def trying to make people laugh with this show! I hope this clears it up. I know it's been 9 years lmao. But other people who are confused will def be reading through the comments and this is public domain & I like to help people lol
