Nomadic beast filling its pouch

My daughter found this French video on the web:

If only the overrated Chaser's War on Everything on Australian TV had included imaginative sketches of this quality, I would have found their sense of humor less juvenile. To my mind, putting on a false beard, dressing up as an Arab and getting driven through security barriers (?) to an international conference is hardly hilarious.

I don't imagine, though, that all the kangaroo's encounters were spontaneous happenings. It looks like a staged video for a French song about a nomadic kangaroo. But it's still funny.

    That's pure Sacha Baron Cohen.

  2. Your mention of Sacha Baron Cohen evokes an image of Borat strolling stealthily through a gift boutique, dressed in his green monokini and trying, like the nomadic kangaroo, to stuff stolen objects into his tiny pouch.
