Pac-Man recreation involves a real dog who loves eating balloons

Aug 21, 2016, 8:34 PM | Updated: 8:36 pm

It’s not easy to explain why this is amusing. It just is.

The folks at YouTube channel Hello Denizen recreated the popular arcade game Pac-Man but in this real-life version used a dog to nom his way through a maze where ghosts could be around any corner.

Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde are no match for Pac-Dog, who is apparently the Guinness Book of World Records holder for popping balloons — for a dog, at least.

The dots usually eaten by Pac-Man in the video game are balloons in this version. Pac-Dog is very efficient at working his way through the balloons and only loses one life before quickly finishing off the level.

If you’re a fan of this video, check out Hello Denizen’s page.

They put other animals through weird situations in videos titled “Tiny Animals Dressed as Safari Animals” and “Chameleon Bowling,” among others.
