Into the wild, the Cartier Panther encounters a shimmering crocodile, a lonely love bird, a breathless zebra, and a restless tiger.

Islamic terrorism is not something to joke about. Except when they get up to crazy shenanigans that would make loonies It is a that does occasionally happen. So, in honor of the release of Run, Hide, Fight Infidels, the producers have assembled a melange of terrorist fails. Take it away.
How do we get that footage? Like in other words, did the guy just blow himself up there? He obviously didn't blow up the camera that was filming him. Or did the grenade actually make it out? And that's just what it looks like when you fire off a grenade inside. I don't know. Like did that guy die? I don't know. I don't use grenade launchers a lot. Next one.
SPEAKER_3 (2:35)
Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar.
SPEAKER_4 (2:37)
Allahu Akbar wa l-Izzatullillah.
Michael Knowles (2:46)
That one looked, I mean, well, this is another one too where I'm like, hold on. Is that just what it's like when the... I don't know, I've never been to Afghanistan. I'd like to generally avoid all the Stan countries if I I don't...
SPEAKER_4 (2:56)
know if I can.
Michael Knowles (2:57)
Kazakhstan seems kind of interesting, but basically I want to avoid all the stands. I don't know. Like it's, what's weird about these is just, it seems like they're all getting blown up and killed. But then I say, well, how am I getting the video? If the explosion wasn't enough to blow up the camera, then unless they were live streaming, it could have been live streaming it. I just don't know. I need more information. Next one.
Yeah, that's what I'm here for. I want more of that. Because it's like the ones where they're about to shoot a bazooka, but then it all just explodes. Like, yeah, that's what I expected. That's not all that entertaining. That's like whatever. But the one where it's just these big scary terrorists, but then they just get up to like goofy vaudeville shenanigans, like they'd slip on a banana peel or something. That's way funnier. That's my favorite one so far. Next one.
SPEAKER_5 (3:53)
Yeah, we have some other stories making headlines this Saturday, so we'll tell you about that.
SPEAKER_6 (3:57)
A dose of instant karma for some would-be terrorists.
SPEAKER_5 (4:00)
Watch this. Tucker loves it.
SPEAKER_3 (4:11)
Okay, I guess it is funny.
Michael Knowles (4:12)
Yeah, it's funny. It also takes you back to the Tucker on Fox and Friends days. That was a while. When was that?
They get blown up. Again, it's not, yeah, okay. Terrorists holding a big gun and then there's an explosion. I'm sorry. It's like, I'm glad they're getting what they deserve, I guess. But it's like all the same video of some crazy Muslim and then they explode. And you're like, oh, yeah, I know. It's like, okay, but I've seen it. I don't.
It doesn't tickle me. I want I want more whimsy. I need more hijinks. I need more shenanigans. That's what I want out of my terrorist fail videos. Next one.

Next tonight, imagine seeing the pickup truck you sold to a Texas dealer show up overseas being driven by ISIS.
A plumber from Texas suing after selling his truck only to have it along with his logo and his phone number end up in the hands of terrorists. Here's ABC's David Wright.
SPEAKER_5 (5:04)
A plumber's truck is his billboard. So what happens when that billboard turns up on the front lines of a war zone?
SPEAKER_2 (5:12)
My secretary called me and said, You can't believe this.
SPEAKER_5 (5:15)
Mark Oberholzer of Texas City, Texas, was out deer hunting a year ago when he got the call from the office that ISIS fighters in Syria were tweeting out shots of his black Ford F-250, now sporting a serious new gun rack.
