Zoo Gorilla RIP

[phkrause]

The gorilla died at the Biblical Zoo in Jerusalem and the zookeeper Itzik decides that the show must go on. So he hires an actor to don a costume and act like an ape until the zoo can get another one.

In the cage, the actor makes faces, swings around, and draws a huge crowd. He then crawls across a partition and atop the lion’s cage, infuriating the animal. But the actor stays in character—until he loses his grip and falls into the lion’s cage.

Terrified, the actor shouts, “Help! Help me!” Too late. The lion pounces, opens 
its massive jaws, and whispers, “Be quiet you shmredrik! Do you want to get us both fired?!”
