Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for February 16, 2014

What did the egg land on?

Wasn’t there a nursery rhyme in which a pumpkin served as a boat?

Obviously Humpty Dumpty wasn’t the one that set the record…

Reminds me of an old Mommy! Mommy! joke…Mommy! Mommy! Daddy’s on fire!Well don’t just stand there, go get the marshmallows!

The pumpkin boat looked more like a round kayak to me. http://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2013/oct/25/pumpkin-boat-isle-wight-world-record-video

The greatest height from which fresh eggs have been dropped (to earth) and remained intact is 213 m (700 ft), by David Donoghue from a helicopter on 22 August 1994 onto a golf course at Blackpool, Lancashire, UK.

I’ll bet that was rough.

I’d like to see the hen that laid that egg.

the reason this record will last for a long time is that it is really hard to strap a parachute onto an egg

so, Humpty fell more than 700 feet?

So that’s what happened to the “Great Pumpkin”!

That’s why I keep matches and pointy things away from my wife.

I don’t believe it!
