You can tell it's an aspen because the way it is

[–]raven12456 9 points10 points ago

How neat is that?

[–]D_Rail 9 points10 points ago

That's pretty neat.

[–]A7X4REVer 2 points3 points ago

Everything is the way it is

[–]darrenf20073 2 points3 points ago

I like how the first video has 4,000,000 views and the second episode only 1,000,000 ... that pretty neat

[–]dndtweek89 60 points61 points ago

I think a couple toward the bottom would make it.

[–]Grappindemen 28 points29 points ago

They'll be crushed..

Initially I was thinking that the couple in the middle would survive. But probably the lack of oxygen will take care of that.

[–]J055A 4 points5 points ago

It clearly says "laid them end to end" which would imply they didn't have to be standing on top of each other.

[–]faptograph 3 points4 points ago

Unless, there is only one elephant left in the world.

[–]grinuthi 16 points17 points ago

"laid them end to end into space"

[–]EEEmatt 19 points20 points ago

Or sewed them together, snout to anus.

[–]DevilDemyx 10 points11 points ago

The elephant centipede!

[–]mpjby 3 points4 points ago

They wouldn't be sqeezed to death by the weight of the elephants they have on their backs then?

[–]SirFloIII 2 points3 points ago

For the few seconds until all the elephants on the world would fall on them, burying them under a huge pile of elephants, with the top ones splatterd by impact of 433 km height.

[–]addc182 2 points3 points ago

Neat Nature Fact,
Did you know, that all elephants die?

[–]Cniggz 0 points1 point ago

And hell I'm sure they would prefer this to being poached. Let the mighty elephant centipede project begin.

My father. He has cancer. Posting to /r/Atheism shortens his life span.

[–]JayEssArr 0 points1 point ago

I guess this is why in the future all the elephants will be gone.

This joke is really old, and I don't know why the lawyers changed into elephants.

[–]DrunkSpatula 1 point2 points ago

How neat is that

[–]bd_bandit 0 points1 point ago

Anyone else read this as "neature fact", and think of this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hm3JodBR-vs

[–]juxtaposition21 -1 points0 points ago

What's a "neature fact"?

[–]bd_bandit 0 points1 point ago

Just reminded me of the neature walk videos.

[–]ReyTheRed 0 points1 point ago

I don't know, there is a chance that a couple at the bottom could survive.

[–]Ehlectric 0 points1 point ago

Yeah you guys need some more Neature facts

Did You Know:

If you take a human small intestine and stretch it from end to end, it shows up on a background check?

[–]Jaspyprancer 0 points1 point ago

You know, I've only been a redditor for ten months. However, I can remember seeing this very same post at least three times since then. Still, it's mildly humorous, and I can't stand people who whine simply because they've seen a certain picture posted before. I'm giving you an upvote. Although it isn't because of the half hearted exhale that might be considered a laugh of sorts. It's because I encourage funny on the site, and I can enjoy things more than the very first time I ever see them. Thank you.

[–]gondor2222 0 points1 point ago

Neat nature fact: Did you know, that if we did absolutely nothing to the elephants, all the elephants would die?

[–]symbiosa 1 point2 points ago

South Park, anyone?

[–]phukka -1 points0 points ago

SCIENCE!

[–]juxtaposition21 -2 points-1 points ago

Fake science. Check out the tumblr

[–]IShouldGetBackToWork -1 points0 points ago

Reposted.

[–]PinkiminaPie -1 points0 points ago

I can't stop laughing.

[–]juxtaposition21 -2 points-1 points ago

I'm getting sick of people posting things from the fakescience tumblr and not giving them credit.

[–]nilla01 -3 points-2 points ago

Actually the only ones that would die would be the ones outside the atmosphere...

[–]403UsernameForbidden 3 points4 points ago

Not really, some would get crushed by the weight of the other elephants, others will fall to their deaths, then there would be the space ones.

[–]Hr0n -1 points0 points ago

Likely a bunch within the atmosphere too though; it stretches pretty far after all, and a free fall from such a height would kill even an elephant. I imagine only the two or maybe three closest to the bottom could survive and any ones higher up would be getting fractures and more as they fell. Then again, if the other elephants are balancing on top of them, then maybe not...and stacking so many elephants on top of one another to begin with would be an issue on its own...

Okay, overthinking this way too much. Sorry about that.
