The Bottomless Hole
Two men were walking across a field when they came across a massive hole in the groundโso deep that they couldnโt see the bottom.
โI wonder how deep it is,โ one of them said.
The other pulled a coin from his pocket and tossed it in. They waited and listenedโฆ 30 seconds passedโnot a sound.
โWow!โ they exclaimed.
โLetโs try something bigger,โ said one of them.
They spotted a large rock nearby, rolled it over with effort, and pushed it into the hole. Again, they listenedโnothing.
โThis hole must be unbelievably deep!โ said one man.
โLetโs try that big log over there,โ said the other.
After a struggle, they hauled the huge log to the edge and rolled it in.
Just then, out of nowhere, a goat ran up and leaped straight into the hole!
They stared at each other in shock as a farmer approached on his tractor.
โHey, you boys seen my goat?โ the farmer asked.
โYeah!โ they replied. โOne just ran by and jumped into this hole!โ
The farmer frowned. โNo, that couldnโt be my goat,โ he said slowly.
โMy goat was chained to a big log.โ
