It doesn't happen often, but the deer won this time.

A hunter got the surprise of his life when the deer he shot and killed magically came back to life and ran away, but not before he scared the living crap out of the hunter.

I wanna know who taught that deer how to play dead.

That's probably the greatest animal trick I've ever seen, and the deer really did a great job of acting, laying there perfectly motionless while the hunter walked up to him.

The best part for me was when the deer opened his eyes, that totally caught the hunter off guard. The icing on the cake was when that deer jumped up and pranced away.

The only thing that would have made the video better, would have been if the deer karate kicked the hunter. Maybe next time.
