Most of you have probably heard the story of the thirsty crow at some point in your childhood. It’s a story about a thirsty crow who used stones to make the water in a pitcher rise up so it could drink.

Now, a video of a magpie doing something similar has gone viral on the internet and made people miss the old days. The video was posted on Twitter by a page called Creature of God, and it has been seen by more than 8 million people.

In the video that has gone viral, a magpie who was thirsty wanted to drink water from a bottle. Its beak couldn’t reach the water, so it used small pebbles to help it rise. The bird put one pebble in the bottle and took a drink. Then it did the same thing twice more until it was no longer thirsty. Isn’t it incredible?

The post’s caption says, “The story of the thirsty crow was right.”
