Two Aussies were out hunting in the Outback, and suddenly came across a huge hole in the ground. They were amazed at its size.

The first said, "Wow, that's some hole! I can't even see the bottom. I wonder how deep it is."

The second said, “There's an old Ford Blitz gear box over there. Let’s throw it in and see how long it takes to hit bottom.”

So they picked up the Ford Blitz gear box, carried it over to the hole, counted to three and heaved it in.

As they were standing there looking over the edge of the hole, a goat came crashing through the underbrush, ran up to the hole and without hesitation, jumped in head first.

They stared at each other in amazement and peered into the hole, trying to figure out what that was all about.

Just then an old stockman sauntered up. "You blokes didn't happen to see my goat, by any chance?"

The first hunter said, "Funny you should ask. We were just standing here a minute ago, and a goat came running out of the bushes doing about a hundred kilometres an hour and jumped head first into this hole!"

The old stockman said, "Nah, that's impossible! I had him chained to an old Ford Blitz gear box! . . ."
