Wow - that's really something. I'd bet it would take no more than 30 seconds before a parent snaps.

My daughter wants to know how he managed to keep a straight face through all that... while I have tears of laughter running down my face!

Good Lord, I had to turn down the volume to listen to that and not have my eardrums explode. Now I'll have nightmares about screaming chickens. Stupid freakin' toy....

I don't know why but after about 10 seconds of listening the biggest smile came over me and I just started laughing. That is quite possibly the most horrible toy you could get anybody.

I don't know about that particular toy, but I bought a purple plush doll of about the same size which made nearly the same sounds. Enough so that it could have been the rubber chicken sewn into a cloth brontosaur*costume. Major child's toy manufacturer, maybe Playskool or Mattel The kid loved it, though I suspect that had a lot to do with being able to make his parents smile and giggle.
I vaguely remember that tipping it end over end would make the "voice box" produce somewhat the same sounds as squeezing, but I could be juxtaposing memories of two different toys.
* Yeah I know that the "brontosaurus" was accidentally invented through a mismatch of fossil parts. But the toy more closely resembled the Flintstones' Dino than an aptosaurus. There may have been plush triceratop and pterosaur alternatives.

Oh wow. That's absolutely hilarious. I agree with you guys though. His face while he was squeezing that damned toy was priceless. I approve.
