    Terry Chen, will you marry me? No one understands the greatness of the JC?

    That website is horribly out of date. They don’t even have the joke about seeing ‘danger’ next to Indy. I don’t think I’ve been on that ride once in the past year where I haven’t heard that ride.

    There have been a few memorable jokes recently that I’ve heard. Two were on the same trip into the jungle at night, one was with the african elephants where the guide shined a flashlight on the first one and said something about them jumping 50 feet, turned out the light and then shined it on second one. It made it looked like it disappeared and jumped across the river. On that same journey the guide shined the flashlight on the rock instead of the backside of water. It was funny.

    The other memorable joke was with all of the big animals, it started with the tiger and the guide said that it was the most ferocious animal in the jungle, it can weigh up to 500 lbs and jump 50 feet. The same thing was said about the elephants, rhinos, piranas, and just about everything else, even the head hunters. It was funny.

    Does anybody else have memorable jokes from the ride?

    Okay, what I want to know is at what point did Disneyland just say ‘fuck it, let’s just make the whole thing funny’. Because it wasn’t always like this, was it? But for as long as I can remeber, the jungle cruise has been about the jokes and the actual jungle safari experience.

    There was always SOME funny, but there’s much more funny today.

    Terry, will you take Amy to be your Metroblogging wife?

    Some of these jokes can weigh over 2500 pounds and jump up to 50 feet in the air.
    They’re actually the only jokes in the jungle who can do that.
