One day an out of work mime is visiting the zoo and attempts to
earn some money as a street performer.
Unfortunately, as soon as he starts to draw a crowd, the zoo
keeper grabs him and drags him into his office.
The zoo keeper explains to the mime that the zoo's most popular
attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly. The keeper fears that
attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job
to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The
mime accepts.
So the next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters
the cage before crowd comes. He discovers that it's a great
job. He can sleep all he wants, play and make fun of people and
he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime.
However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he gets bored
just swinging on tires. He begins to notice that the people are
paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not
wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the
top of his cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the
top to the lion's cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious,
but the crowd loves it.
At the end of the day the zoo keeper comes and gives the mime a
raise for being such a good attraction as a gorilla.
Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps taunting the
lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up.
Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion
he slips and falls. The mime is terrified. The lion gathers
itself and prepares to pounce. The mime is so scared that he
begins to run round and round the cage with the lion close
behind. Finally, the mime starts screaming, yelling, "Help,
Help me" but the lion is quick and pounces.
The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the
angry lion and the lion says,
"Shut up you idiot! Do you want to get us both fired?"
