    No one's brought it up yet, but this video reminded me of how on point Paul and the band were with their music cues. "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega for a guy named Lou, "Stairway to Heaven" for the stair trick (duly noted by Dave), and "U Can't Touch This" for a guy named Hammer. Enhances the whole experience, and a little extra "Easter egg" (before that term came into common use) for those who picked up on it.

  • @sallywarner2195
    @sallywarner2195 6 місяців тому

    This is why kids get bit in the mouth so often. Dogs consider it rude to have a stranger get in their face. They nip their puppies faces when the puppies have bad behavior, and human skin is not as strong as puppy skin. What they may tolerate for their owners, they often won't tolerate for strangers. Don't kiss or hug dogs, it's disrespectful to them.Kissing and hugging is human behavior, not dog behavior.
