trying to fly a kite (pure chaos)

I don't think I'm meant to be a kite flyer. website: https://adriabarich.com TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@adriaandoatmeal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adriaandoatmeal/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AdriaOatmeal YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AdriaAndOatmeal Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/adriabarich Summary A chaotic, hilarious beach day where an adult attempts to fly a shark-shaped kite—only to battle zero wind, missing parts, a mischievous dog named Oatmeal, sand, seawater, tangles, and relentless comedic sabotage—all while trying (and mostly failing) to achieve serene hobby bliss. Highlights 🦈 Kite assembly disaster: The shark kite arrives missing critical spreader bars; they improvise with a stick (found by Oatmeal), only to later discover the original pieces were on the ground the whole time. 🐕 Oatmeal the chaos agent: The dog steals the mic, rolls in unknown substances, chews through the DIY kite rod, digs suspicious holes, “sabotages the shark,” and distracts relentlessly—earning multiple timeouts. 🌊 Zero-wind physics defiance: With literally no breeze, the only way to get lift is sprinting into the ocean—resulting in soaked gear, tangled lines, near-oceanic kite loss, and one exhilarating (but unsustainable) moment of flight. 📹 GoPro dog detour: When kite flying collapses, they strap a GoPro to Oatmeal and launch a ball into the surf—capturing joyful, wave-pummeled, tail-wagging, ball-misplacing canine chaos in glorious first-person glory. 💸 Kohl’s cash irony: The $15 kite—bought with expiring Kohl’s Cash as a calming adult hobby—delivers pure, unfiltered mayhem instead… and somehow still feels “worth it.” Chapters: 00:00 Using Kohl’s Cash to Buy a Shark Kite 00:18 Taking My New Kite to the Beach 00:29 Shark Kite Unboxing & Setup Attempt 01:09 Kite Assembly Problems (Missing Parts) 02:10 DIY Kite Fix Using a Stick (Beach Hack) 03:21 Attempting to Fly a Kite with No Wind 04:02 Shark Kite Crashes into the Ocean 04:49 Running on the Beach to Make the Kite Fly 05:24 Letting My Friend Try Flying the Kite 05:53 Dog Sabotages the Kite (Stick Disaster) 06:06 Finding the Missing Kite Parts 06:33 Rebuilding the Kite Correctly 07:00 Wet, Sandy Kite Flight Attempt 07:23 Strapping a GoPro to My Dog at the Beach 07:42 Dog Swimming in the Ocean POV 08:27 Dog vs Waves (Surfing & Fetch) 09:18 Beach Day Recap & Final Thoughts
