Animals have been known to eat fermented fruit all over the planet but it is the most common in birds and the reasoning is that fermented fruits are more calorically dense as there is a higher concentration of sugars in overly ripened fruits
Doesn’t matter if it’s a dog, a cat, or an elephant. Once something becomes family to you they are on par with a human companion And if jumbo was around when Thanos snapped. He is so big only half of him would disappear.
OMG, I'm laughing so hard. The commercial on before was the period underwear one and everyone in the commercial was wearing plain black tees, and then here's Karl wearing the same thing when I skipped it.
Women and men really live in different world's, I have never seen anything like that 😅 do you remember the company? My girlfriend may have some interest in something like that 😉
The accident gets even wilder. What happened was there were two elephants on the track. One of them was General Tom Thumb who was billed as a dwarf elephant and was sometimes displayed with Jumbo to create an even more exaggerated look about his size. Tom Thumb was hit first and people at the accident said that he 'flew from the rails like a football'. Jumbo wasn't just hit, he was twisted up with the rails so if anything caused his death, it was that and not just the impact. People took a lot of advantage with the illustration and story, saying the reason Jumbo jumped in front of the train was to save Tom Thumb and one of the most infamous pictures to go with this is one of Jumbo positioning himself between the train, posed to tackle it with Tom Thumb pushed behind him as the smaller elephant ducks for cover. Everything was exaggerated to show just how much of an extraordinary elephant Jumbo was.
Sometimes while watching these I’m like how do you top these stories then comes the one about a huge elephant with a human best friend that he drinks beer with. Best channel on UA-cam
Thank you guys for becoming my favorite UA-cam channel. Your hard work and content is appreciated and I look forward to seeing you all moving upward and onward.
Actually the largest elephant on record wasn’t jumbo, it was one that was hunted in 1956 in Angola. It was 4 meters tall and weighed 24,000. It is currently on display in the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C.
Hahah oh my god I live in the town that hit him with the train! I worked in a railway museum for awhile here and you get a lot of questions about it. However, you are exaggerating jumbo's size, the circus made a big deal out of his size but no one ever really proved it. That said, there is a picture of the train crew crowding around the body of the elephant they just killed like a trophy. Town is St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada we have a big statue of him now. It's very odd.
David Attenborough actually did research using his bones and it turns out if he’d continued to grow he could well have been the largest ever as he was already 20% taller then most elephants were at his age
They do elephant rides at a zoo in Ontario (African Lion Safari). They had quite the herd of elephants, including other strong, dangerous animals. You would drive through the zoo with the animals just walking around people in there cars. Odd note the only time anyone that ever died there was a trainer who was at the wrong place at the wrong time and the elephant sat down on the trainer and injured him so badly he died. Great video as always Karl
"How do we stop him if he goes off on one." "We should need Gladstone" "What's Gladstone." "Our railway engine" "Well you could've told me we had an engine." I guarantee no-one will get that reference.
Aragorn gave his word he would free them from their curse if they held to their original oath basically to help Gondor in its hour of need , sure Aragorn could have just been like “um Gondor is still in danger Sauron is still a thing” but like would you want to piss of that army remember that army was basically a ghost army of murders and sell swords at best , they had no real loyalty to him other than the promise to free them from their torment, I think of n a way Aragorn sees them as an embodiment of Isildur (his ancestor) who betrayed the world of men and saw setting them free as a way to set his own guilt over the ring free
I used to live in St Thomas the town where jumbo was hit. Not much was made of the statue in town. We had fun explaining what happened to jumbo to a substitute teacher. Not sure if she ever actually believed us but it was fun watching her try to figure out if we were messing with her.
amazing that these lads are now a quarter of a million subs when i seen them first they had a few thousand, good to see them keeping the show mostly the same
Just watching that Attenborough documentary, Karl didn't mention the fact that the scientists found *no* sign of trauma in Jumbo's skeleton... after a freight train collision!
Marvels what if’s Jumbo vs Thor Jumbo knocks Thor out with one mighty swing of his trunk then picks up Mjolnir because he is worthy and becomes jumbo Thor Now what happens next?
You're not going places... You're going to the top of UA-cam, literally... mark my words: In a year and a half, or potentially two years, you shall reach such great heights... Such great heights.
I was once taught by my sociology professor that the word jumbo is never used until after Jumbo died. Jumbo is obviously not an english word and did not refer to anything big until the legend of Jumbo himself.
Um Karl, you forgot to mention one thing, DUNBO WAS NAMED JUMBO JUNIOR! After this very elephant, I mean can you imagine Mrs Jumbo's pain after her husband died after getting hit by a train. And then giving birth to his son
Two small elephants met after being apart for years and when they brought them together, the two elephants ran to each other and stopped at the fence separating them, then with their trucks they just hugged trucks thru the bars, they weren't trying to damage the fence, after a quick hug thru the fence before they opened the gate, the fence was bent completely out of shape. these were two small elephants.
I’m actually from the town where jumbo died. St. Thomas, Ontario. Railway capital of Canada. We actually have a full scale statue of jumbo in the city alongside a red caboose. 35,000 people living in the town and more than 50% of them are elderly people who retired and moved here because nobody lives here lol.
when i watched this video it made me remember the time i rode an African elephant at my local safari park where there were animals from Africa could roam free in some 600 acres it was pretty dope. and you you could drive through it too.
Fun fact, the hulk was originnaly grey, but due to limits in printing technology at the time, they made him green so he would be easier to see on the page.
Punctilious response regarding the Army of the Dead in LoTR in 3.. 2... 1... So the whole thematic idea behind the Army of the Dead (or the Dead Men of Dunharrow) is that they abandoned the Isildur when he called upon them during the War of the Last Alliance (when they originally 'defeated' Sauron), and therefor Isildur cursed them to always exist as long as the war against the evil of Sauron was still happening unless they ever fulfilled their oath. The movie actually takes a lot of liberties with the Army of the Dead here, because in the book they never actually even get to Minas Tirith, after they defeat the ships belonging to Umbar and Harad, Aragon considers their oath served and more allowed them to pass then anything. In the book they never made it to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields like is show in the movie. Now you may be wondering why Aragon didn't ask them to do more... Well, it is actually never stated in the books weather they can actually fight or not, basically they beat the Navies of Harad and Umber by scaring the sailors to jump overboard and drown, and is more or less stated that the Army of the Dead only fight using 'fear', so they wouldn't have actually been that useful after that point (by the time Aragon got back to Minus Tirith pretty much the entire battle had already been fought),because all that was left to fight were mostly Orcs, who we are never told if the Army of the Dead would actually be able to scare. Plus, it isn't like they would have any effect on Sauron, seeing as how he was essentially a minor god with him being a Maia and all. So to answer your question, in the movies, who knows why he didn't have them continue on and destroy everything. But in the book, it is because their usefulness was basically up and it would have gone against Aragon's character to be a dick about it and keep yanking their strings...
Im a heavy guy and think of myself as being an elephant at times and when you said elephant poon i laughed thinking "elephant poon for the elephant dude" 🤣
"How did your best friend die?"
"He fought a train. It was a pyhrric victory."
The victory was a metric for of two short or unaccented syllables?

Elephants actually like alcohol even the wild ones. The fermented tree juices make elephants drunk and they love it XD
Just as a fun fact, I’m the like number 69
Animals have been known to eat fermented fruit all over the planet but it is the most common in birds and the reasoning is that fermented fruits are more calorically dense as there is a higher concentration of sugars in overly ripened fruits

And if jumbo was around when Thanos snapped. He is so big only half of him would disappear.
Carpe Noctem That would be even worse...
Carpe Noctem which half though
Brion Shortt back half so he has a bit of time to smash stuff before he expires
He'd just shrink to half the size.
Then he would just regenerate
I need a comic series about Jumbo the elephant but it’s just basically the hulk comics w/an elephant and ends with him in Valhalla

Jumbo was slain by Train
It's because he's vampire
Maybe jumbo is vampire
Maybe Scott is vampire.
maybe camera is vampire.

Has Karl told the story of Corporal Wojtek yet? I'm just imagining the back and forth Brad and Karl would have with that.
The zoological society sent a 3 word response:
"Sorry, YOUR SCREWED."
Sometimes while watching these I’m like how do you top these stories then comes the one about a huge elephant with a human best friend that he drinks beer with. Best channel on UA-cam
The best part of this story is that jumbos autopsy showed that at the time of his death he had yet to stop growing.
Jumbo’s story is like Clifford. Starts out really small and grows due to the power of love
How do you stop an elephant from charging? You take away it's credit card.
Kobe Wild No
Thank you guys for becoming my favorite UA-cam channel. Your hard work and content is appreciated and I look forward to seeing you all moving upward and onward.
Honestly Karl is such a good story teller and the way he speaks to the viewer like he’s some sort of parasocial friend is very cool.

24000 what? kg? pounds?
@@Southpaw88 24,000 lbs. My apologies for the error!
Take Jumbo down like it’s an At-At
I ship Harambe and Jumbo because of Karl.
Isn't that the story of Clifford the big red dog?
The elephant drinking just makes me think of the Pink Elephant song from Disneys Dumbo
How to stop Jumbo?
This is a job for THOMAS EDISON!
Fuckin amazing!!!
Or the hammer of dawn
janetracer more like Thomas the tank engine
janetracer When I saw Thomas I thought you meant Thomas the train engine....
This reply really left me quite shocked!
We’ll never be as cool as Jumbo
this is one of the coolest, sweetest and saddest stories i’ve ever heard
Hahah oh my god I live in the town that hit him with the train! I worked in a railway museum for awhile here and you get a lot of questions about it.
However, you are exaggerating jumbo's size, the circus made a big deal out of his size but no one ever really proved it.
That said, there is a picture of the train crew crowding around the body of the elephant they just killed like a trophy.
Town is St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada we have a big statue of him now.
It's very odd.
Vandyno st.thomas Guy here as well. I leave near the memorial
Kadin Fehr I 100% believe you, last name Fehr is really common in Aylmer. Small world I guess lmao
Just Jake Yeah, it was large, but at the end of the day, it was an elephant, it is supposed to be big.
David Attenborough actually did research using his bones and it turns out if he’d continued to grow he could well have been the largest ever as he was already 20% taller then most elephants were at his age
TheGioguy But he didn't continue to grow... I'm 6'4'' and if I continued to grow I could probably be the largest ever as well.
My first thought on "How would you stop Jumbo given all items from fiction are available" is to, y'know, hit him with a train.
Jumbo was basically his child, so of course he was crying his eyes out.
Thank you for flipping the video back
Gustav the demon crocodile vs. Jumbo the train destroyer.
Unstopple force vs inmoveble object
Not going to lie that fight sounds fucking awesome to watch

who needs the hulk when we had jumbo
Maybe Elephant car is vampire?
"JUMBO IS STRONGEST THERE IS!!!"
That story is already done “Clifford the big red dog”
"How do we stop him if he goes off on one."
"We should need Gladstone"
"What's Gladstone."
"Our railway engine"
"Well you could've told me we had an engine."
I guarantee no-one will get that reference.
The elephant who beat the train: "Comfortable hole, goodbye."
"hit by a fucking train" is probably my favorite line ever.

Jumbo vs Thor
Jumbo knocks Thor out with one mighty swing of his trunk then picks up Mjolnir because he is worthy and becomes jumbo Thor

This food for thought heats back up like homemade leftovers. Getting my algorithm right!

In the world taken over by animals, Jumbo will be like that one big guy in the army. He would become personal guard for our raven overlord.
Is this Dumbo’s dad? In the Disney movie his actual name is Jumbo Jr.

I'm imagining the rankor's death scene from RotJ. The crying rankor keeper always got me.
I found out that my cousin also watches your videos and we both just smiled.
This elephant escaping would be like Jurassic Park
Um Karl, you forgot to mention one thing, DUNBO WAS NAMED JUMBO JUNIOR! After this very elephant, I mean can you imagine Mrs Jumbo's pain after her husband died after getting hit by a train. And then giving birth to his son
These videos make life better.
Considering elephants knock over full grown trees when attempting to scratch an itch, I can only imagine the destruction of a pissed off elephant.
I’m from around St Thomas, Ontario. That’s where Jumbo lived and died. There’s a life sized statue of him in town. It’s pretty cool

Its all fun and games untill you run out of beer
I can't explain why this my favorite video of yours
"the massive fuck off elephant" sounds like a better version of clifford the big red dog
Could you make a video about Copral Wojtek? I imagine that would be an entertaining video.
