Once again I'll take up the contrary position and pose this question:
How many of you think it's "cool" when your chameleon accidently shoots your finger? Be honest!
While I agree that chameleons shouldn't be handled or taken out of their cages or made a spectacle of... I'm not seeing anything more horrible in that video that hasn't been thought of as "cute" on this forum.

I have 100% stopped even attempting to handfeed my panther becuase the last time we did, he nailed a waxy and the overlap stuck to my finger and his toung did not retract on the first try. I seriously freaked out for like 2-3 days thinking that i might have damaged em, and felt absolutly awful the entire time.
On a side note, i have never recieved a confirmation from YT on flagging stuff.. just got one:

Honestly, I never think that is "cool". I avoid hand-feeding my chameleons for that very reason. If I ever do decide to hand-feed them, I make sure that the food item that I am offering them is big enough to prevent them from striking my finger and potentially straining their delicate tongue muscles. I definitely would not intentionally encourage a chameleon to strike my hand with it's tongue. This video made me absolutely appalled and I can't understand how some people can lack such common sense. The guy in this video a complete tool.

I think so too. I couldn't even watch the video. If this is being human.... I'd rather be an animal.

the key word would be accidently not to intentionally tease the animal but they could be doing things far worse but i still dont like what they are doing

Trace, I get really concerned when my chameleons catch my finger with their tongues.
This guy is posting an action that could have seriously harmed that chameleon on YouTube for all the other morons out there to replicate. This wasn't an accident during feeding, there is a definite distinction between that and what is going on here. And I think the reaction of the forum members thus far is a pretty good indication that people wouldn't think that exact thing was "cute" if posted on here.
On one hand, I don't think he sould be hit by a truck or be killed (as some people posted on the youtube comment section), but on the other hand, if this is how he behaves with his animals I would question his pet ownership. Not a lot going on in that brain.
