Hey its Yahoo News !!!

MOSCOW (AFP) - – Russian beachgoers got a shock when they saw a donkey soaring in the blue skies over the balmy beaches on the Sea of Azov in southern Russia last week, police said on Tuesday.

Attached to a parachute, the animal screamed in fear as it circled over heads of holidaymakers sunbathing on a beach in the Cossack village of Golubitskaya in the Krasnodar region.

Just too bizzare not to laugh...

Can't get Yahoo through work, but just checked it out on YouTube. It's parasailing not parachuting, which is less exciting and takes away the wondering of how they got a donkey in an aeroplane, and then out again at 12 000 feet! Didn't know if I should laugh or not, but then thought that it's getting to do what loads of tourists do - but for free! That and in another country it'd probably end up being somebody's lunch.

So, bearing that in mind...

What's it up to next, scuba? Bungee jumping? Skydiving?

Perhaps the Luftwaffe was dropping in reinforcements?

Little too late guys...

Geez, sounds like a fraternity stunt.

I'm certain there was a lot of vodka involved for whoever came up with it!

It's the commando donkey!

The American version.

Say what you want, I have a problem with it. Thats an innocent, and yes, dumb, animal being mistreated.

I don't see much funny about it.

I would agree. Garnering entertainment out of the fear of an animal is disturbing.

We agree on very few things Platapus - but its good to see we can agree on something like this!

I have to also agree, I do not find this funny or amusing in the slightest.
