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,
a zookeeper grabs him and drags him into his office.
The zookeeper explains to the mime that the zoo's most
popular attraction, a gorilla has died suddenly and 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 tires of 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 zookeeper comes and gives the
mime a raise for being such a good attraction.
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 and 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?"
