hi i'm josh i'm molly i'm rev chris and
today
we need to tell you about probably the
most insane thing that i have ever seen
on instagram
what the heck just happened
it was it was it was like something
taken straight out of hitchcock film
literally
i'm still in shock i think i was i i
replayed that story more than i have
ever played an instagram story ever
before and if you have no idea what
we're talking about you need to see this
instagram story so let's just let's
start with that this is what happened
yeah it's not very open yeah but i don't
want to be cold because it can take
we cooking
[Laughter]
we haven't really thought this through
what is it
oh my gosh oh my gosh that's yeah it's a
squirrel head squirrel finger
that's good
oh he's poor he's got his paw yeah it's
poor
[Music]
[Applause]
so the
cut plan is
because this the hole is now bigger like
it was before
the hope is that the squirrel is going
to fall out
into that bucket
and then chris is going to be
and then we're gonna i don't know what
we're gonna do once inside take it
outside
oh my
oh there's like squirrel poop everywhere
okay
it was bad
can i just say
already
weirdest thing i've seen on instagram i
actually got messages from like all
around the world from people i don't
know being like this is the most insane
thing i've ever seen yeah i've never
seen you so panic it's horrible it was
horrible it was just like
and they're so scratchy and quick and
like and it's so alien it's like a
squirrel outside it's kind of nice right
in your house
it's like it's just transformed into
something other and it's like this is
not this should not be here i mean that
person
didn't want to be in there
not just one squirrel wait what because
this was only the beginning we need to
provide some context so much need
explaining i was at like a meeting and i
had like panicked wife on the phone and
i'm like jenny is everything right here
chris oh my gosh
i'm like what what happened and she's
like
a squirrel and i'm like
she's like the squirrel has eaten
through the roof and it's dropped into
the lounge literally and i was like what
how is right squirrel our roof but our
kitchen is in the middle of the house
the other funny thing is there's this
friend yeah who come over it's like the
first time she's staying with us and
midway through conversation a guest who
we don't know that well right literally
just like we go like haha
scream i've never ever heard so loud
it's
so loud you won't even know it it's so
loud and then jenny and lizzy just
scream at her scream yeah
so the three girls are all like
it's hanging out looking around
so i
run and grab the gaffer tape right yeah
just go up there as soon as i get up the
ladder the squirrel is like
like this right and i'm like putting
gamma tape up right on the ceiling
so yeah
that is the start point of the instagram
story and then we think oh maybe it's
gone and we've gathered about and then
suddenly you hear this
and the gaffer take is like bulging like
this
at this point we were thinking it was
the same squirrel that was somehow
getting into the roof and then going out
and it was just on some cycle but that
theory was disproven significantly
how the following day the next day i get
another text yeah before we get sent a
video i'm sheltering in the hallway
jenny's also trying to be really calm
with the kids there's a lot of shouting
and clunking it doesn't
she looks like a refugee in her own
house
the other thing is like when you have
the kids like she you said to me she
wanted to just go ah but as soon as you
freak out as a parent the kids just
freak out looking at your freaking
outside to be really calm i call
chris i'm like what the heck's going on
i thought the squirrels got out and he
was like there's another hole a squirrel
has got out
and then and then he pauses and he goes
honestly ollie
this is this is kind of bad when i came
home
i was like i'm going to look through the
window before i go in yeah right
so i go into the garden yeah and i peek
through the window and i see this
freaking squirrel just judge across the
carpet and i'm like yeah
lizzy though i have to say bossing it
unbelievably unbelievably bossing it she
was literally head under the couch with
a broom like this knocking the squirrel
out and i'm like if that school comes at
you you're under a couch there's nothing
you can do and she was like it's okay
and i'm like
and literally there is footage of me
going
yeah so look she
oh my goodness oh crap
damn it
liz has given me pep talks she's like
she's like she's like chris let's have a
practice okay what are you gonna do
when the squirrel comes out because i've
mucked up twice already just watch
oh
josh
oh look at it look at it corning up the
blinking thing so quick
it's so quick
oh my god
you yeah just ran at
[Laughter]
can you me it
oh my goodness look in the sink look
oh it's right there yeah wait for it
oh my goodness
it literally went at me i was like what
aah
yeah he's so emotional oh my gosh
reliving it it's like i'm sweating i
didn't even sweat often
the next stage was getting the pest
control in yeah so they send this guy
over yeah and i show him the hole and
he's like i've worked for 15 years in
the pest control business i've never
seen this
no
and i was like
that's not helpful that's not a good
thing he was like why are you telling me
that's like when you go to the doctor
and they're like well i've never seen
this before
well the first thing he said was this
isn't one squirrel
wait what what the first thing he said
he was like
this is a family of squirrels you've got
a nest up there
no
yeah this is what blows my mind is when
i realized that kitchen's on the ground
floor so there's like
floors so they've been living in the
that two
water in the walls
so then we go and go around our houses
and search for the possibilities of
entry points and we went up
and
oh my gosh i don't know what happened
but it was crazy so at the very very top
of the house okay
where you have your ceiling and your
rafters and you put your what do you
call it the insulation
down right right what they've done the
guy came down and he was like whoa
they've obviously been here because you
open the hatch and first of all you get
covered in like squirrel poo and then
you got there and i'm not even taking a
mountain of insulation where they'd
obviously over years just
pulled it up and made make nests and you
could see where they've been sitting
because it was all pressed down
massively they've made nests from your
insulation yeah like up to my weight in
the room up to my waist nest like big
big nests it all happened in 24 hours so
what's happened now so it's still it's
not just you have two holes yeah we
still have holes no more squirrels
but you're paranoid every time you go in
the kitchen yeah yeah
wait i think i just heard jenny coming
hello darling
we're reliving the horror the squirrel
saga yes we've been talking about the
squirrels the squirrels so what was that
like for you because obviously you were
in the house from the first one i
discovered the first one okay it was
quite um hilarious because we had a
friend
yeah so i'm like welcome come on in i
open the kitchen door there's all this
stuff on the floor and i'm like what's
that and then i look up and there's a
hole in the ceiling
and there's a squirrel just running
around
welcome to our home again
what was the whole experience like not
pleasant it was like
one of these things that's hilarious
afterwards okay i mean it was a bit
hilarious at the time the one coming
through the ceiling well this has
probably been the most insane story i
think i've ever heard happen to anyone i
know it was up there it was really
helpful top ten in our
house thanks guys for sharing that story
welcome you're welcome it was epic it's
really fun
well we'll see you guys really soon bye
