    How did they get up there? Are the surf boards deep enough in the sand to not just tip over, being so center heavy? Do you need someone to hoist you up there? Must be, what, 2.5 meters high?

      It’s like how elephants climb up trees: they sow a seed and wait for the tree to grow.

      Also the reason why crocodiles are flat: they like to nap under trees during autumn, when the elephants fly down on brown leaves.

    If you’d told me someone could look relaxed with a surfboard up their ass, I would have my doubts.
