A Raw Piece Of Chicken Crawled Off A Table — And Warning: Disturbing
If you’ve been looking for a sign to become a vegetarian, here it is. A video showing a piece of raw chicken crawling off a table has become a viral sensation on Facebook in the past two weeks. And we must warn you: you’ll never look at chicken, raw or cooked, the same way again after watching this clip.
Earlier this month, Facebook user Rie Phillips reposted the video in question from an unknown original uploader. Since reposting about two weeks ago, Phillips’s video has garnered over 15 million views, 65,000 shares, and 220,000 comments. People are demanding to know what the heck this video is all about.
And unfortunately, there’s no good answer. It’s simply a piece of raw chicken crawling off the table to some restaurant-goer’s horror.
As far as we all know, there’s no trickery behind the video, and we don’t even know how one could go about faking this. Whatever’s left of that chicken is clearly trying to make a run for it, as it uses its remaining stub to lunge itself off the plate and onto the floor. Shocked doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel right now.
If you dare, watch for yourself. You’re not going to like it.

So, how exactly is this possible? Undead nerve endings may have caused the post-mortem movement. The chicken could have been so fresh that the nerve signals were still firing, as the New York Post states.

In fact, the phrase “like a chicken with its head cut off,” is a thing because chickens can sometimes live for minutes, to hours, to sometimes days after their heads are chopped off. Weird and gross, but true.

And for those who are asking, why the heck was there raw chicken on this customer’s table to begin with?, we have an answer for that, too. The customers could have been partaking in an Asian hot-pot meal, where they are responsible for cooking their own meat in a boiling broth on the table.

There’s also such thing as raw chicken sashimi, which is exactly what it sounds like. However, this fast-moving chunk looks much too large to be a slice of sashimi.

Some who have watched the video claim that it’s not chicken at all. Instead, they think it might be a frog leg.

Frog legs are much more likely to keep moving after being severed from the body. But, if that’s a frog leg, it must have come from a giant frog.

Then there’s the whole question of why the thing was being filmed. Surely, it’s only because it is a faked video, right?

But if you watch closely, you’ll see that the thing is already moving when the camera cuts in. This leads us to believe that the people at the table saw it moving before turning the camera on to catch the action.

We don’t really care what it was or why it’s moving. We hate it no matter what.

Sorry, but we have absolutely no appetite for zombie. Not now, not ever.

Good luck eating your chicken nuggets from now on. Let’s pray they don’t hop out of your fast food bag.

We’re upset. Like, so upset.

Although we don’t know what restaurant this happened in, let this video be a new rule of thumb to follow. If raw chicken is on the menu, don’t order it.

Don’t DO this to US. PLEASE.

Time for us to log off and never go near chicken again.
