I love this BBC video I found of workers at a Japanese zoo having an earthquake preparedness drill.
The idea of such a drill is smart, given how Japan has so many earthquakes.
But this is hilarious. The workers are practicing for what happens if panicked animals escape during an earthquake.
To do that, a guy dressed as a happy zebra bumps into a guy and the guy play acts being dramatically knocked down. Apparently that represents an attack by a zebra.
Finally, they shoot the "zebra" with a tranquilizer gun, and the "death scene" is the climax of this disaster scene.
Watch and have fun:
