00:00The Donkey and the Salt
00:12There once was a donkey that always carried bags on his back.
00:25One day, his master put bags of salt on his back.
00:29Wow! Why does my bag feel so heavy today?
00:38The Donkey struggled with the heavy bags of salt, until finally he fell into the river.
00:47The Donkey splashed and splashed, but couldn't come out.
00:58Finally, he came out, and was pleasantly surprised.
01:03All of the salt bags became light as air.
01:07Aha! If I go into the water with the bags, they will become lighter.
01:14The Donkey was delighted at what he thought he discovered.
01:19A few days later, the master put more bags on the donkey's back.
01:23But this time, they were bags of cotton.
01:28Hmm, the bags aren't very heavy today.
01:32As the donkey passed the river this time, he decided to purposely fall into the river.
01:39Aha! Yes! Now the bags will be even lighter!
01:44A little while later, the donkey tried to come out of the river.
01:49Oh my! What's this? I can't stand up! Why are these bags so heavy now?
01:57What the donkey didn't know, is that unlike salt, cotton becomes heavier in water.
02:07The poor donkey thought he was so smart.
02:10But in the end, he wasn't very smart at all.
02:14Oooo! Oooo! Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!
