I would have like to see how the tigers dragged him out of that tree and ripped the stupid monkey to pieces.

It does get a little bored, the movie is too long in my opinion.

That is either the world's bravest or most stupid monkey. Perhaps both.

Thank you.

This is the Absolutely Off Topic forum, so it's allowed, isn't it.

Most of what people think is bravery is actually stupidity in disguise.

That monkey is just more skilled than the young tigers and he knows it.

I passed it around the office and everyone seems to have gotten a real kick outta it.

One observation I made is that the monkey doesnt seem to be acting in malice, angry animals have a distinct body language no matter the species. He's not "attacking" them at all, just sorta messing with them, grabbing their ears, tails, etc. But it's up for debate whether the little miscreant is mockingly tormenting them, or just "playing" along with them as a playmate.

We will probably never know the monkey's true motives, lets just hope for an interview or something in the future.

The monkey is obviously playing with the tigers. The question is "are the tigers playing with the monkey?"

They dont seem to be exhibiting the "ears back" or teeth bared thing, and I dont hear them roaring at all. Makes me think they are sorta playing too.

When that monkey jumps down on the ground and kinda taunts them about halfway thru @ 1:50 mark, I bust up every time!

In case anyone is curious about the species, it appears the little pest is a Hylobates lar, or "White-Handed Gibbon".

Ancient monkey proverb: Grab young tiger by tail, fun game for you. Grab large tiger by tail, fun lunch for him

Seriously though that is some sort of crazy kungfu super monkey, and if anyone gets to interview him it should be me as I can speak his native launguage.
