" 640 African elephants on the tip of a ballet shoe"

Okay, okay. HOW did they get 640 elephants to stand on the tip of a ballet shoe?

[IndispensableDestiny]

I don’t think “african elephants per toe” will ever be a standard unit of pressure.

[TigersEye]

Asian elephants won’t work. Accept no substitutes!

Gumball machine diamonds coming soon.

That's one BIG ballerina!!!
