 And then there was this elephant, jumping out of a hanging railroad.
A young elephant named ‘Tuffi’ visited Wuppertal, a city in Germany with the circus. As a marketing gag the circus people decided to let him make a tour on 21st July 1950 with the ‘Schwebebahn’, a suspension railway. Shortly after departing the station, due to the noise and shaking the 4-year-old elephant panicked, kicked the door open and jumped down in the water of the river Wupper. Luckily, the elephant only suffered some minor scratches. Nobody photographed that scene, therefore later this postcard was made by some photo-manipulations. Supposedly, Tuffi jumped out right beneath the ‘Elefantenapotheke’ in Wuppertal (meaning Elephant’s pharmacy)! |

There is an elephant in the room…
I’d rather be an elephant. Then I could also jump from a bridge and not be hurt at all…. 😉
