One of my friends e-mailed this to me and I found it... hilariously disgusting

Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt ( Paderborn , Germany ) fed his constipated elephant Stefan 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged- up pachyderm finally let it fly, and suffocated the keeper under 200 pounds of poop!

Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give theailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded onhim. "The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr.Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock and lay unconscious as the elephant continued to evacuate his bowels on top of him" said flabbergasted Paderborn police detective Erik Dern. With no one there to help him, he lay under all that dung for at least an hour before a watchman came along, and during that time he suffocated.

You do realize this is an urban legend, don't you? And 10 years old @ that (of course you must or you wouldn't have posted it in Lighten Up!)

Oh I remember this story, someone e-mailed it to me. That's is pretty gross and the poor man!

Oh, I do. I Google searched it as soon as it got sent to me There are several versions of it, too.

Wow. What a sh^%%y way to go. Pun intended.
