Funny / Walking with Beasts

• All the moments of Camera Abuse, which typically happen Once per Episode, are this, though they add a sort of realism to the presentation as well. Especially when the indricothere calf runs the cameraman over. You can practically hear the poor cameraman shouting "Nice boy! Nice indricothere! NO! AHH!!!" or something to that effect.
• The poor indricothere calf trying to get between mom and a male she's mating with is hilariously futile. He wails helplessly as his mother is being humped.
• "They're [the brontotheres] about to undergo their severest challenge." Cue a brontothere scratching its buttocks against a tree.
• The Neanderthal's reaction when he turns around and realizes he's right next to a woolly rhino. His entire body radiates "Oh, Crap!".
• After the clan successfully kills two mammoths, one of the Neanderthals triumphantly exclaims in a way that sounds like he's shouting "YEAH!".
• The behind-the-scenes documentary The Beast Within provides further examples beyond the usual antics of the SFX crew:
  • The actor who's getting his Neanderthal makeup applied interrupting the scientist describing how ugly they might have looked in real life.
  • A baby orangutan climbing onto another scientist as she talks, prompting her to compare it to her husband.
  • The chimpanzee greeting the zoo visitors with a glaring boner.
  • The creators recounting how random locals passing by reacted to the crew filming people dressed in binbags jumping up and down in a lake.
  • The credits are a combination of this and Big-Lipped Alligator Moment.
    • The lead-up to the credits makes it funnier. The narrator states that despite humanity's sense of power over the Earth and its animals, we're actually vulnerable. Our society is fragile and complex enough that the sudden onset of another Ice Age could cause it to fall apart. Then he tells us not to worry, because it probably won't happen in our lifetime. Dry British humor at its best.
    • This is then followed by showing a meteor heading towards the Earth. Cue "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" as we see a silly montage of Australopithecus presenting a circus.
