Joke

Two Aussies were hunting in the outback and came upon a huge hole. They were amazed at its size and depth. The first said: ‘wow, I can’t even see the bottom. I wonder how deep it is.’ The second said: ‘There’s an old gearbox over there. Let’s throw it in and see how long it takes to hit the bottom.’ It was very heavy, but they picked it up, carried it to the hole and heaved it in. As they were looking over the edge, a goat come crashing through the underbrush and, without hesitation, jumped into the hole head first. The hunters stared at each other in amazement, then peered into the hole. Just then, a farmer sauntered up. ‘Say, you fellas didn’t happen to see my goat?’ The first hunter said: ‘Funny you should ask. Just now, a goat came running out of the bushes at 100 mph before it jumped head-first into this deep hole!’ The farmer said: ‘Naw, that’s impossible! I had him chained to an old gearbox.’ Eddy Jones, Sevenoaks, Kent.
