A man tries out different animal mating and courting techniques on his girlfriend, including:
* Building a "bower" like a bower bird, complete with a shiny object
* Giving a gift like a nursery web spider, but his girlfriend is unimpressed by the offering of bread and yogurt
* Kissing like a white-fronted parrot, but this involves vomiting into the other's mouth, which doesn't go down well
* Inflating his chest like a frigate bird, but his girlfriend is freaked out by the sight
* Giving a pebble like a gentoo penguin, which is more successful
* Trying to encourage his girlfriend to urinate like a giraffe, but this is vetoed
* Creating a symmetrical pattern like a puffer fish, which is done using towels on the bed
Throughout the video, the man's girlfriend is often unimpressed or grossed out by his attempts to mimic animal courtship behaviors.
