This guy needs a job and decides to apply at the zoo.
As it happened, their star attraction, a gorilla, had passed away
the night before and they had carefully preserved his hide.
They tell this guy that they'll pay him well if he would dress up
in the gorillas skin and pretend to be the gorilla so people will
keep coming to the zoo. Well, the guy has his doubts, but Hey! He
needs the money, so he puts on the skin and goes out into the
cage.
The people all cheer to see him. He plays up to the audience and
they just eat it up. This isn't so bad, he thinks, and he starts
really putting on a show, jumping around, beating his chest and
roaring, swinging around.
During one acrobatic attempt, though, he loses his balance and
crashes through some safety netting, landing square in the middle
of the lion cage!
As he lies there stunned, the lion roars. He's terrified and starts
screaming, "Help, Help, Help!" The lion races over to him, places
his paws on his chest and hisses, "Shut up or we'll BOTH lose our
jobs!"
