    Amusing tho the video is, the dog drove the herd across the road and into traffic. Only luck that they didn't hit/get hit by traffic or cyclists.

    Proves that
    A) you should keep your mutt under control
    B) drive slowly in Richmond park as there is alway a chance of deer running across the raod.

    I thought it was Fenton. It's still an odd name for a dog though, Fenton Jesus Christ...

    They may as well shut down YouTube now, this wins the Internet an nothing funnier will ever be uploaded.

    The weird thing is I have absolutely no idea why its so funny :? The only think that would have made it more perfect would have been if he fell flat on his face at 0.39.

    Hope he gets prosecuted for failing to control his animal.

    This looks exactly like incident that happened to me in the park a few months ago, cycling down Sawyers before the roundabout at Sheen gate a heard came bounding over the road from the right chased by dog. Might even be the same event. Anyone know the date?

    I was not there then!

    The similar event I saw was fairly instant the deer just came bounding across the road anyone on bike in the middle would have been flattened. Fortunately I was 100 yards away....
