Hans J┆rgen Olsen, a 12-year-old Norwegian boy, recently survived a moose attack by feigning death, "just like you learn at level 30 in World of Warcraft. gold"
In WoW, "feign death" is a skill acquired by hunters at level 30 that allows them to take a page from the possum playbook, collapse to the ground, and convince their enemies -- who lose all ingrained animosity in the process -- that they've died.
According to Norwegian site Nettavisen , Hans and his sister apparently enraged one of the local moose (mooses? meese?) during a walk in the forest near their home. After shouting at the gigantic creature to ward it away from his sister, Olsen dropped to the ground, and presumably his lifebar plummeted to zero.
Moose have never been known as the wisest creature in the forest, and the boy's show of necrosis seems to have worked, as both he and his sister survived intact.
It's easy to decry video games as a menace to society but in a world where MMOs save adorable, tow-headed Norwegian children from a deadly moose, can they really be that bad?

Someone who named himself after a very handy tool and a common weapon, sputtered: >Good for him and his sister, but isn't this exactly what we don't want gamers to do? You know, imitate things in real life just because they saw it on a videogame <
uhhh, no. the point is getting kids to know right from wrong. more to the point getting kids to IMITATE video games IN CONTEXT. in other words, if you ARE confronted by a group of rampaging orcs that are about to kill you, by all means, run away, fight them, or kill yourself to spare the experience of being molested by giant smelly inhuman things that want to eat your flesh. but in the case of racing games and games like "grand theft auto" just like the games profess, if you do these things in real life (just like in the game in the case of GTA) you will have consequences to deal with, and unlike grand theft auto, life has no god mode, and no extra lives, and you don't just "respawn" after the police take you down in a high speed car chase, and a 238mph crash does NOT result in your car blinking in and out of reality, and resetting itself to a neutral position in the middle of the road (nfs series)
people that buy the BS that video games are dangerous, ARE MORONS! parents that do not guide their children by rational thought, and don't teach their kids that "this is a video game, and real life is a lot different" and parents that don't play video games with their kids, to find out what kind of content they are exposing their children to, without ANY GUIDANCE as to what to think about the graphic violence, nudity, explosions, terroristic impulses, I mean seriously, I think it's about time you idiotic parents that think its all the video games' faults, and yet can't "control" your kids because they just subvert your will and find ways to play anyway, and because you take it away from them will only want to continue to do it into their adult lives all the more, which will cause them to get fired a lot when they start playing video games on the computers in their places of employment.
All parents that complain about the video games their kids play, need to start playing their kids games to see what they are up to, pose it as a friendly endeavor with your child, "can I play your game with you?" if they only have it on "their" computer and are playing the game, and if the game is single player, don't be upset if they say no, they no you are a "NOOB" and they will have to teach you everything about the game if you are confined to their room, instead ask if you can borrow his CDs keep "backup copies" of all of his game discs for him, and show him the value of that, I know I got pissed later in life when any of my CDs went missing or got scratched. several of my video games got destroyed by friends and friends' children. and parents spouse's or girlfriends' children. in fact I have none of the several thousand dollars I have spent in my lifetime nor any of the games left to show for it, aside from the games I currently play. which are mostly racing games, and an MMO but its not world of warcrap. Lord of the Rings online is my drug of choice, and I am kind of taking it slow, I have one level 49 that I've been teasing my guildies with, I've taken months, building him up, and he is now half way through level 49, and I go on raids, so I don't get too much experience, but a lot of loot. well not very much really but mostly epic loot. I also encourage my children to play video games occasionally, and to understand that they are playing a game. I mean saying that someone is going to run over a hooker because they saw it in a video game, is like saying that noone alive today has ever played Lemmings. and if you don't get that analogy, go play lemmings. if you are right though, I wouldn't play it, because you will eventually have to kill yourself, as a main theme of the game is suicide
