Yeah, yeah. It's a great book you'd love. It's by this guy who had a store in New York, Henry Treflick. It's called They Don't Talk Back.
You could walk into a Woolworth and buy monkeys.
Was it snakes? The venomous snake bite, Eric?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But she liked the lesser known cats, right?
Okay, that alone. And Viagra? What? And Viagra?
Oh. But who knows?
But speaking of that, though, you saw the second episode.
No, they're very active.
It's probably close to 250 days. I mean, most people can't do that.
Yeah, we were interested in- It took a lot of time to- In the animal-human relationship in a variety of forms. I think we, and you see in episode one, one of the first things we shot years before we even met Tanya, was this woman that's part of the circus family, Pam Rosaire, watching 2001 Space Odyssey with her chimpanzee Chance. Yeah, yeah. I mean, talk about sobering experience.
Me and Carl distanced with Chance the chimpanzee, 15 years old, pounding basically a modified trailer home, the floor echoing. The loudness of that sound on the floor was so loud I had to take my headset off.
Well, they're also like human characters and wiry, and you don't know what's going to happen. They're on these kind of leashes.
Oh, sure. Very murderous.
Yeah.
The arm leverage is pretty incredible. But they also want to fuck with you.
I'm writing this. You know, what was so fascinating, you'd think, knowing all this about chimps later, remember this, Eric, we were talking about, well, there must be like reported human deaths in the United States with chimp attacks. And we couldn't find any. It's only memes.
It's only little... I mean, there are globally, but somehow... Globally, a lot of them in Africa, little kids get snatched and stuff. Well, kids get eaten. Kids get eaten. But in the U.S., there has been no really human death caused by chimpanzee. Now, what was fascinating, and you haven't watched this yet, but in episode four, we kind of go... It comes from delusion to reality, and it's heavy.
We filmed our first chimpanzee funeral. And what we didn't show... which I just remember this now, everyone that would come up to say their piece would share a story where they were attacked by that animal. Oh, God. It was so, the kind of juxtaposition of this celebration of life and these attacks in this context of a situation they shouldn't have ever been in, it was kind of remarkable.
Guys bring a puppy to the park. I mean, I'm more interested in Carl now, you know? What's your motivation over there with that baby dog?
