My son and I made our first obstacle course in 2010 from old bric-a-brac and a washing line for the black and grey squirrels in our backyard to crack. For over a decade my challenges for our furry friends have become bigger and more elaborate or, as my wife puts it - 'Really, this is getting out of hand!'
In recent years I've themed the courses and created a Squirrel Grand Prix Furmula 1 race, and even a Squirrel Olympics - The Leaptathlon consisting of 7 sporting events over 4 courses with 2 squirrels and 1 pun-filled commentary. The most recent obstacle course is my Squirrel Football - SIFA World Cup where Nutella Toone for England goes tail to tail with Dreymar da Silva Santos from Brazil. Even if you don't like football you'll love the squirrel action in this truly unique match!
Put simply, I love squirrels, building things and lots and lots of puns!

The commentary is gold!
One of the best commercials I've ever seen! Love it! 😂

Thank you for this creative fun squirrel competition! I need some laughs today...and this provided many! Dark times call for some daily laughter. 🙏🌺✌️🐿
Glad to be of service, and so are the squirrels 🙂🐿️
Squirrel 🐿️ are awesome
Sweet
What people did during Covid lockdowns will forever be remembered.
What a hoot! Thanks for the laughs!
Too funny. Who comes up with these ideas?
That might be me 🙂💡
Do you have a competition for deer at the bird feeders? With the deer and squirrels in my yard, the birds (and thus humans) are coming in last.
Yeaaaaaa!!!

Squirrel young are the cutest! Enjoy my other vids 🙂🙂🐿
Here I am, at midnight, watching squirrel football, waiting for the match USA-Netherlands in the Women's World Cup Soccer Championship. I hope that match is as enjoyable as this video.
I hope 1-1 was worth the wait, at least you're still tied at the top of group E. Should have substituted for a squirrel though! 🐿🙂
Moral of the story: Squirrels know how to cheat too! 😄
Einfach herrlich! 🥰
Danke schön 🙂
Now those are some Dang lucky Squirrels.. they're the happiest Squirrels in the state , I'm sure . I'm glad Shlisa pointed me in this direction . 🤠🖖 ♨️
Too cool and alot of work! Thanks for the laughs!
You're welcome. I obviously have a lot of time on my hands! 😀
You have the best squirrel obstacle courses. Thank you for being you and sharing your talents! I love your narrations. My favorite was the social isolation course.
Thank you, that means a lot ❤
Why ARE you talking that quickly??? :-) You can almost see them thinking every time they encounter and focus on a camera. I have a fair notion that squirrels are pretty smart. I know rats are (some of them ridiculously so), so smart, in fact, that you can train them to do several tricks. Watching squirrels play, I get the impression that they are at least at rat level, at least until it comes to evading an approaching car. Whenever they come scurrying out so close that you really can't do much except hit the brakes and slow down a little bit, looking like they they have basically picked three directions to flee (flea?) at once (they would make fantastic dodge ball players), it scares the crap out of me. Thankfully and happily they have been evasive enough that I've never actually hit one, but I would swear they've gone right under the car, in between the wheels, several time. Maybe they're just playing with us, but that is a dangerous game. I prefer them playing yours. Always a hoot to watch, it makes me happy that you are still doing this. Cheers my friend. Say hi to the contestants for me.
Glad they've all avoided your wheels and crossed the road to join the chicken 🙂 They're more predictable on my courses...they just target the nuts!
Squirrels are smart. For years the "experts" said they hide their nuts, But only harvested maybe half. But now they have learned that they Actually harvest ALL their hidden nuts, plus they watch where the other squirrels hide theirs.. and steal them . GENIUS ! You can tell , they love the obstacles he put in his yard . TO COOL . Much Respect to you and Blessings to you and your family . 🤠🖖 ♨️
I couldn't possibly pick one over the other. They each have such unique characteristics. I love them all.
Thank you. The squirrels love them all too, which is all that matters 🙂

Does UNISA pay you for directing their students to this tutorial?
As an ex-teacher, I'm just happy it is useful to students 🙂
I tried that with with dog. He fell on his butt.
I bet he drinks Carling Black Label!
I loved the concept! How fun is that. Lewis would love a pole position about now.
I would say you're having too much fun at squirrel courses, but I am here watching it. And I go like the "commentators you had in one of your other videos. I think yoi should keep using those. Too funny
Squirrel 🐿 must like these courses as they could climb just over the top or go down the other way. Must be fun for them.
I'm sure they think my courses are just unusually shaped trees! 🙂🐿
1:57 who are you to judge? 🤪 ...you are just the big mouth commentator
