Gorilla farts so bad zoo forced to apologize

Posted: December 21, 2008

gorilla-fart

Gorillas at Chessington Zoo are in the mist of a stench caused by brussell sprouts. The Zoo in London was forced to issue an apology to guests after giving the gorillas a Christmas treat of Brussels sprouts. The brussell sprouts are very nutritious, but the stench caused by the gorilla farts caused horror amongst the men and women with reports of nausea and small children crying.

Gorilla keeper Michael Rozzi said:

“We feed the gorillas brussel sprouts during the winter because they are packed with vitamin C and have great nutritional benefits.

“Unfortunately, an embarrassing side effect is that it can cause bouts of flatulence in humans and animals alike.

“However, I don’t think any of us were prepared for a smell that strong.”

Reports that the Gorillas were asking people to pull their finger have not been verified.

    This the kind of news that makes us laugh & forget about all that other biased & opionated worthless news.

  2. you have GOT to be kidding me??? I swear some people are just PUSSIES, plain and simple.

    So what if a gorilla farts and causes a huge smell, its rather funny actually, considering its very comical.

    As for the kids crying, man, would it not be more simple to just have the parent cheer the kid up by saying “its natural, there is nothing to be scared about”. I feel sorry for those kids who have to put up with parents like that.

    Anyway, I rambled on enough, take care, keep up the funny articles :) .

  3. “…in the mist of a stench…”

    Wow. An actual fart *mist*!? Green or brown? Did they have to squeegee the windows?

    Or did you mean midst?

  4. That picture is an Orangutan not a Gorilla.

  5. Oh and there Apes not Monkeys.

  6. And it's they're, not there.

    Perhaps you should make sure you're not a giant moron before you start picking out errors.

  7. it should say in the midst of a stench not in the mist.

    Wow..so many missed the humorous play on the 'Gorillas in the Misty' title. I'm sorry you have no sense of toilet humour.

  9. That's pretty funny, assume it's true….. Chessington is actually in Surrey and west of London, but in that general area. I used to live about 10 miles away. Hmm… Wonder if you could smell it from there…

  10. JUST LIKE MY SON !!

  11. Hahaha. I laughed so hard I farted. Whew–no brussel sprouts for me over Christmas.

  12. I live in an apartment complex and my friend and I ate dried apricots one day. Soon thereafter the stench caused them to cordon of the entire floor and later evacuate the building to determine the cause.

    They has since registered us as WMD's. and countries are vying for our 'services'

    This just goes to prove my wifes theory of my being a big dumb ” Ape “, brussel sprouts have the same effect on me, however, we no longer apologize to our nieghbors, we just warn them !!!

  14. I read this and laughed until I was sick. My whole family LOVED it!
    I told my kids that they are not allowed to ever complain about their dad again.

  15. Wouldn't a steady diet of brussel sprouts throughout the year solve the problem?

    yes, glenn, and it's “they're”, not “there.” stop throwing rocks, your house is glass.

    The whole problem could have been solved with large Corks.
