🇪🇺Because today you really needed to see a corgi skateboarding. Just trust me on this ...
Matthew Newell@Natasha_Jay I thought I was happy and content with today's lot until I saw this and realised even a nice day is improved by a skateboarding corgi. The nonchalance of those steps - kudos Doggie
\ˈthē-ˈˈärd-ˌvärk\@Natasha_Jay Fantastic.
PalmAndNeedle@Natasha_Jay cool dood
Bruno Girin@Natasha_Jay I trusted you and I was not disappointed, thank you!
@Natasha_Jay I think @bark_maul needs to see this.

@brunogirin @Natasha_Jay Don’t make me buy my dog a skateboard.
@bark_maul @Natasha_Jay she might teach it to all her friends at doggy daycare!
the baywindowgirl@Natasha_Jay OMG, they can actually steer it with their little paws!
Jim CampbellLow centre of mass, very important!
Patrick Hadfield@Natasha_Jay actually, I needed to see that a couple of times!
the buff who fell to earth@patrickhadfield @Natasha_Jay I just watched it 3 times 🙏🏻
Merry ChristmasThis is so cool.
That is so cool.
Abstract_Bit@Natasha_Jay : maybe there will be some problem to go down those steps....
Sam Chavez (she/they/he) 🌈🤠@Natasha_Jay I can never show this to my corgi…he would become too powerful! 
Drey@Natasha_Jay - Made my day -have an Excellent week.
Al & Val's Modern Homesteading@Natasha_Jay Why yes, yes I did!
Melancholic Mediocrity 
@Natasha_Jay oh my dear god this is phenomenal
@Natasha_Jay I just watched this six times in a row and then five minutes later watched it _again_ stg 😭😍
Darren du Nord@Natasha_Jay Coolest corgi ever! That little run with the board at the end sealed the deal.
Schlaf ist unterbewertet@Natasha_Jay The Queen would be pleased.
Urban Hermit@Natasha_Jay I am probably never going to not believe in the possibility of reincarnation, on some level, but when I see this many nonhuman animals enjoying human stuff, I wonder, "is there a population bottle neck a short distance downstream?"

Eric SchutteLet’s say AI does NOT exist I would really be amazed.
But because AI DOES exist my reaction is, OK, nice video and I go blank.
There are ZERO pictures I trust anymore. In a way it gives me peace of mind but I also lose a lot of enjoyment.
It is like having lost my taste and smell after COVID. I eat but ……
But that’s life 😁

vrsimility@ericschutte @Natasha_Jay can't speak to this video but the activity seems legit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skateboarding_dog
@vrsimility @Natasha_Jay
Yes, could be, you are probably right but my point was AI takes away ALL enjoyment/emotions because my first thought is; it’s fake.
Even when people swear it is real I keep thinking, yeah, right.

SofaFernsehFanYes. A.I. was my first thought too. But if it's A.I. it's well done. Thinking of faking peoples reactions such as the couple at the lower end of the stair (reaction to the sound of the skadeboard) is way more than I would expect. This also goes for the traces of humidity on the tarmac and klinker-path.
@ericschutte @Natasha_Jay
Third look said: OK. Strange blurr around the dog. Especially when you have a otherwise detailed Background such as grass and klinkers.
There was some tampering. They must have replaced a cool cat by a corgy...

fedithomI'm in the very same boat. But this gem here? That just looks too damn good. I don't even wanna consider the possibility that it might be AI generated. And that's it for me. :)
Jim. From Kansas.@ericschutte @Natasha_Jay This one does look a little too smooth to be absolutely 100% not AI, but I have seen similar vids that look "right".
Corgis may be the genetic ideal for skateboarding. Low to the ground, reasonable density, and smart enough to understand how it works.
Till O'Rly 
Cruising around on a skateboard is something cats and dogs can learn. Corgis have probably the perfect shape and size for it.
I've even seen it with my own eyes, though a dog is a bit too light to steer a downhill deck, so it was more or less just straight forward and backward.
catflyhigh@mrgl @ericschutte @Natasha_Jay
I was also skeptical about whether it was real, so I searched YouTube and found dog-on-skateboard clips that were older than four years. One is even 17 years old, so I'll believe it, and even will boost it, which rarely happens with me and dogs.
@mrgl @ericschutte @Natasha_Jay
Someone liked my answer today, so I searched youtube again and found this one from 2014:
The description says:
"18 months of teaching then practicing, 6 months of that for filming and editing, so please, don't try this at home."
and it is a cat which makes it even better, but some dogs are also involved 😁

And I found out, there are even skateboarding dogs records in the guinness book (under 20 secs for 100 m)
clips are also on youtube.

I've seen video of skateboarding dogs that predate AI. There is nothing here that seems unlikely.

tchoui@ericschutte
Exactly my thoughts :(
cambria@ericschutte
I think I remember this video from a few years ago, before the slop times. It is real as far as I can tell.

Jhooper@Natasha_Jay I don't have anything important to say, but I'm replying to keep a copy of this post available within easy reach for later
Lou 🏳️⚧️@Natasha_Jay Proof that reincarnation is a thing: how else is a non-therian dog so good a skateboarding? 👀
Ward Cunningham@Natasha_Jay
This dog does some awesome skateboarding. As videos go it is right up with the guy doing balance beam and parallel bars on a bicycle.

Tobias@Natasha_Jay so he is skatecorging
Duke@Natasha_Jay Where'd the dog get the Superme board lol
Ben Hammondit seems a bit _too_ good
which does make me wonder if it real...
CaseyLThat corgie knows how to skateboard, and loves what s/he knows!
Meanwhile, I would fall off within 2 feet :)
The Gneech! Awww Yeah
David Cantrell 🏏@Natasha_Jay You're right. I did need to see that. And now I need to see it again. Thank you!
Wayne Werner@Natasha_Jay Tony Bark, pro skater
F4GRX Sébastien@Natasha_Jay what percentage of fake is that awesome vid?
Arthur DetooA corgi steps onto a skateboard at the top of a long set of shallow concrete steps somewhere outdoors. It calmly and slowly bumps down the entire staircase, then steers gently around several pedestrians. When the board slows, the corgi hops its back legs down on one side to push. It keeps glancing back at the person filming, who is following, and eventually coasts to a stop in a patch of grass. The corgi has better board control than many humans.
@Natasha_Jay Holy smokes! He's soooo good!
lovely_Natur+Kultur@Natasha_Jay What a pro! 🐶
Glitchy 
@Natasha_Jay Sora looking realistic today /j
