Very cool animation. Certainly different subject matter.
But they drank out of the pool. You KNOW one had to pee in it.

But giraffe high diving?? Only in some one's fertile imagination. It was
fun to watch.

Another one of note:

I know a guy who worked on this project. And once I had lunch with
Santan Clause Snow White, they both SWEAR it's a real machine.

It is not animation. A friend of a friend knows the guy that helped
train the giraffes. Took months.

How come the giraffes coming out of the pool aren't wet?
They leave no water trail on the deck leaving the pool area.

On that score, it wouldn't at all surprise me if the people who did it
were looking to hone their skills and advertise them as well. Beyond
that, I like when people take on a challenge, even just for their own
enjoyment.

By any reasonable measure, I have spent more time on my current
woodworking project than could ever be rationalized on a cost/benefit
basis, at least if the only "benefit" we'll allow is the resulting
furniture. And shortly after I began it, my life got a bit more busy and
complicated than before. But I'm learning something new, testing my
skills against a challenge and getting a good bit of satisfaction out of
it.

There is an air dryer, like the ones at the car wash that blows the
water off as they exit the pool. A friend of a friend knows the guy
that installed it.
