A. Date with Hippo, the national geographic way

Let me brief you on what happened in the next 1 hour..


Program name--dangerous adventures


Location -africa


Host-brady berr n his crew..


Danger--- max., no of deaths of humans in africa are caused by hippos, [ya, n some of u thought lion was gonna get u first, , :)]ya , n if u wanna know y hippo ?well , , ask him 2 yawn , and u would know why...


Project -"2 collect sweat samples of the hippo for its "sun block qualities"


Statutory warning --plzz --."don’t even try doing this unless you’re insured"..


Now how was mr. Brady going to achieve this??:( , , firstly he had 2 take the bite capacity of the hippo in count format, so   as to design a suit that could withstand the bite of the hippo in case they attacks the fake suit while taking the sweat sample.., so a tough fabricated material was used at the tip of a rod .its not as if the hippo clan were going to donate the sweat sample 2 him free of cost ..


First day trail --- encounter at their private pond resort, by mr. Brad, now hippos weren’t quite happy specially the one who had the fabricated rod placed in front of him..[mission failed]..its was a private hippo party n mr brady was the un invited of the entire lot , , no guessing why , , including his human crew...


Day 2-- woooo, her [hippo , i mean] in her private location, with food attached 2 the rod in her case a potato, ya she did bite the rod, eureka! Mr. Brad got his reading. For his special hippo designed suit. So now that d suits ready , brad n his crew set out with is outfit which is a hippo’s replica n now, he thought he could get his work completed..finalyyy...:)


So did he??? , did he??:)


Read futherrrrrr==, :)


Day 3---was bout 2 wear the fake out fit, and all of a sudden an elephant approaches him, a poacher whoes with him scares the elephant way. ..taking a breath of releif , mr. Brad wears this hippo outfit which is dam heavy in weight n reaches a pond where the hippos are sun bathing. So   one of the hippo catches his attention n he makes a slight sound which distracts the attention of others hippos , round him, meanwhile mr. Brad is shivering inside the fake suit , and his only protecting amour is his wireless . The hippos approch him , but , alas!:( they soon realize by the exterior outfit that this aint 1 of them. So they walk away:( .....


Day 4--mr, brad decides using hippo pooo on the fake outfit 2 attract them by smell, after decoration of dung on the fake outfit is done , he’s disguises himself under neath the outfit once again, , , :)waiting patiently , , soon the crew n poachers see a female hippo approaching n she’s walking around this so called "hippo", lol... N wondering "who’s he "never seen him here "?, , in this checking out session which was going on , , , one of the poachers is heard saying 2 the camera crew guy, his exact words were , "the original hippos watching the hippo from america"....


So did he get the sample nowwwwww?:)


They say when everything’s going right on a "date" something might go wrong in words or deeds.well.the monitoring camera inside mr.bradys outfit fails as soon as she comes close ....oppsy! Ya excatly , what i said 2...lol......


[trail.4 a bummer!]


Is he giving up?:(


Nope!


Day 5th-single hippo found in a muddy spot , same approach but the legs of the fake hippo get stuck in the mud pool , n the fake hippo starts sinking , n before mr, brady would be chewed on by the sharp canines of the her lady counter part hippo he’s saved by the poacher..


Last day trail: Under the moon light...as hippo’s normal stay on land more than water only at night time..


Not at all a good idea. They all attacked his outfit. As hippos are not human friendly at all. So mr.brady n his crew had 2 packs up on this mission..


Moral of this story-will , determination, success or not , interest remained till the end, not at all boring in visual or vocal form.


Hippos last words for humans, "use sunscreen and leave our sweat alone...":)
