    The last people on land just have to be a wee bit stronger to keep the tension, then it works out fine.

  Did you know that if you took a blue whale, the largest mammal on earth, and laid it end to end, tail to mouth, on a basketball court, the game would be cancelled?

  I’m going to go out on a limb and say all of them would die for one reason or another.

  Also, my first experience with the internet back in 1994 was a page of elephant jokes, I feel I’ve come full circle now.

    Why full circle, though. Is this your last experience with the internet? RIP aeronmelon’s internet experience, 1994-2026

      Let’s be honest, it was downhill since the Elephant Jokes website.

  It’s hard to imagine any of them would live. I guess one near the top might survive by using the flood of elephant pieces to slow their fall. But an elephant can’t survive a ~10 foot fall. That’s about 2 elephants tall, and the bottom two or the ones I am most confident are dying in this.

  Aould you say that all of them will? Some from lack of air and some from the weight of a gazillion other elephants on top of them
