Luckily no one was hurt, but why take a penguin? They can't be great pets, anyway the penguin probably said, you are not boxing me in.
Have fun it's saturday. .

My cat Toonces could do a better job of flying a helicopter.

How else do you expect a penguin to fly?

“Helicopter crash in South Africa blamed on ‘unsecured’ penguin”. Really? Who doesn’t secure a penguin before they’re airborne?

I figured they would have just got the one off the top of the Telly.

I thought this was a joke at first since I’ve never heard of a penguin being blamed for a helicopter crash. I guess he didn’t want to leave his homeland.
I hope the passenger who dropped the box has insurance for a helicopter replacement.

The penguin didn’t want to go.
Was it freed?

Gentlemen, when flying always secure your penguin. You never know what chaos it might cause, as demonstrated by this post's story.
