The video is blurry, but what it depicts is clear enough: A man is speeding down a dirt road in a four-wheel-drive vehicle. The camera seems to be propped up on the dashboard.
As a herd of emus runs along the road in front of his car, he swerves, purposely mowing them down, one after another. In the background he can be heard shouting expletives before turning the camera on himself, laughing and shouting "Yes!"
Emus - among the world's tallest and fastest birds - weigh upward of 130 pounds and can run 31 miles per hour . The birds in the video appear frightened when they realize the vehicle is coming their way, reports The Washington Post.
"This is great!" the man shouts as he runs over the massive birds. "I've got that one too, and that one."
The footage circulated on social media this week, sparking outrage in Australia. Police there said the video had been filmed some 300 miles northwest of Melbourne.
