Farmer posts hilarious family parody on YouTube and lands 2.3 million hits
Who said life on the farm has to be boring? Derek Klingenberg has practically lived his entire life on a Midwestern farm, but he certainly isn’t your average farmer. Harvesting grain, farming cattle, all of those things may seem fairly straightforward even to people who have never done it before, but Derek certainly knows how to make things a little bit more interesting.
Of course, technology has also become completely unmissable on the field, making the life of and work of farmers incredibly more efficient. However, Derek chooses to use that technology in a less serious manner that will certainly put a smile on your face.
The creative man has already amassed almost 2.3 million views on YouTube, and they’re absolutely well-deserved.
The farmer has three adorable daughters who love to hang around on the farm, and they’ve adapted quite quickly to this rather unusual lifestyle. In fact, they absolutely thrive in it as well, and couldn’t be any happier. Maria, Aleah, and Sophia are more than happy to co-star in the family parody YouTube video and are all dressed up for the occasion with cowgirl boots, denim, and pigtails.
Maria is the oldest sister of the three and is seen as the ‘pack leader’. She guides her little sisters through the open fields and introduces them to all of the different animals around.
When they arrive at the kittens, they seem just as curious and interested as the three sisters!
The whole video that Derek posted is basically a documentary about what goes on in the daily life of a farmer’s daughter. Of course, this is a parody video, and Derek decided to take a little bit of inspiration from an artist known around the world.
The South-Korean artist PSY surprised the whole world years ago with his ‘Gangnam Style’ hit, and Derek decided to base this video on his next song, ‘Gentleman’ from 2013.
With their cowboy and farmer’s outfits on, we see the whole gang approaching towards the camera in truly epic style, perfectly in sync with the beat from the K-pop hit. Of course, the phrase “I’m a Gentleman” gets replaced by something else…
“I’m a Farmer’s Daughter!”
With the aid of a greenscreen, Derek definitely manages to show his creative side. While the video does show what their life on the farm looks like, there’s a sudden twist towards the end.
After a while, viewers are met with a time-traveling surprise, because 15 years have just passed by!
Gone are the little, adorable girls, and they’ve seemingly taken over the farm while Derek has become old and is now rocking a nice grey beard.
It’s all in good fun, and they’re still all dancing and showing off their moves to the beat. This particular video has gone viral, and now Derek and his girls are definitely quite the internet celebrities now.
“In the Flint Hills of Kansas, one weirdo farm boy started a YouTube channel, made some goofy videos, and the rest is history,” his channel description reads.
They go on all sorts of adventures together, and also have a following on TikTok.
One thing is for sure: the farm life is anything but boring in this family, and they definitely never forget to show off their humorous and creative side.
