Farhad2000says...Available for humans also right here. Absolutely marvelous drink.
pyrexsays...Heh, this is a scene from The Gods Must be Crazy. I loved that movie :-D
archchefsays...Gods must be crazy is a good film :-p Me, I have cats that love vodka. KItty goes crazy when the vodka bottles come out of the bar. Nothing funner then a cat, vodka and a laser pointer.
gizmundisays...Actually, this is from "Animals are Beautiful People" which is made by the same people as "The Gods Must be Crazy".

wraithsays...Sorry, but...
"(...)In the movie Animals Are Beautiful People by Jamie Uys, released in 1974, some scenes portray elephants, warthogs and monkeys becoming intoxicated from eating fermented marula fruit. Later research showed that these scenes were improbable and, in all probability, staged. Elephants would need a huge amount of fermented marulas to have any effect on them, and other animals prefer the ripe fruit. The amount of water drunk by elephants each day would also dilute the effect of the fruit to such an extent that they would not be affected by it."
