@sogdianrock Two zookeepers. One looks after the Penguins and the other the Elephants.
One day they get chatting and develop an argument over who has the best job.
Penguin guy says "penguins are great fun to watch ! They do the silliest things ! It's hilarious !"
Elephant guy retorts "Elephants have their fun side too !"
"Oh i doubt that !" laughs Penguin guy.
"I'll bet you £10 they can ! come over to the Elephant enclosure and i'll show you."

So off they go to the Elephant enclosure and the Elephant guy says
"Ever see an Elephant jump ?"
Penguin guy laughs. "It is a well known fact that Elephants cannot jump ! You KNOW this !" laughs Penguin guy !
"I'll show you !" says Elephant guy.

So he goes behind the Elephant house and come out with two house bricks.
"Watch this !"
He stands behind the male Elephant. Brick in each hand. Crouches down to where the Elephants testicle's are hanging; brick each side; then SMASH ! claps both testicle's between these bricks !
The Elephant roars and leaps three feet in the air !!!!

Penguin guy scratches his head; and applauds his friend for proving his point.
"That's crazy !, here's your tenner !"
"Thank you !" says Elephant guy......."Ever see an elephant shake his head from side to side ?"
"Oh now you are taking the mickey !!, FACT ! Elephants cannot shake their heads from side to side ! Their neck muscles don't allow for it !"
Elephant guy says "Bet you a tenner they can !!"
"You're ON!" says Penguin guy !
Elephant guy walks around to the front of the Elephant. "Remember me ?" He asks.
The Elephant, somewhat grumpily nods his head !
"Remember these ?" says the Elephant guy showing the Elephant the two bricks.
Again the Elephant nods his head.
"Want me to do it again ?"
And the elephant........
