'Fucking hell!' Boris Johnson shrieks as he's attacked by an ostrich (www.express.co.uk)

Boris Johnson got a shock when an ostrich attacked him on a day out with his family. Hilarious video shows the former prime minister and one of his children admiring the large, flightless bird from the apparent safety of a car.

The feathered giant can be seen striding up to the vehicle as Mr Johnson and the youngster look on with the driver's side window wide open. Mr Johnson appears to describe the ostrich as being "very naughty" as the creature gets closer and closer. Then as it peers into the car, the bird lashes out with a sharp peck at the ex-PM, to which a shocked Mr Johnson cries out in front of his giggling child: "Christ! F****** hell!"

The ostrich was approached for comment but had not replied at the time of going to press. Probably still traumatised.

That, or bearing one of his children already.

Probably both.
