Today, I found out that turkeys can fly. I also found out how much a new windshield costs. FML

Seems the turkey was just as surprised as you are to learn he can fly.

I'd have so many things I'd have to do if that was a pig instead of a turkey

They don't really fly, but they have an awesome vertical leap and they flap a lot to hang air for a couple of seconds. That's why he hit your windshield. The same thing happened to my uncle. He said it, "exploded like a turkey bomb." :(

The wild turkeys I've seen fly upwards into a tree disagree with you.

Turkeys can fly, just not for very long distances. When they do fly can can go as fast as 55 mph for short bursts. They also sleep in trees.

It's not really flying... it's more like jumping and flapping. Kinda like the way chickens 'fly' but for a slightly longer period. Know how Mario 'flys' in Super Mario Brothers? Like that.

Is it possible this is a domestic vs wild issue? Domestic turkeys don't look like they can fly, but I think wild turkeys do.

I have wild turkeys on my property every day. They certainly can fly and even glide in the air, and very graceful looking. They fly over a canyon on my property with ease. Its not frantic flapping.

You halfway deserved it. Who in the world is old enough to drive and doesn't know turkey's can fly.

Apparently everyone else here is too young to remember WKRP In Cincinnati.

Lol I was willing to bet my house on the fact that the reference would be lost on the majority of the FMLers

Scrolling comments, waiting... scrolling... damn am I going to have to make a WKRP joke? And YES there it is. Well done, sir. Now we just need an FML of a pig painting a lobby.

Had to scroll past a bunch of dumb comments to find the WKRP reference, but I'm glad I persevered.
