00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.380
Once upon a time, a lion was striding through the forest when he heard:
00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:05.650
‘Hey, you!’
00:00:05.650 --> 00:00:07.000
The lion looked about.
00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:08.240
‘Here!’
00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:09.910
The lion looked again.
00:00:09.910 --> 00:00:11.110
‘Here!’
00:00:11.110 --> 00:00:16.700
The lion squinted, and there was a tiny fly; a gnat.
00:00:16.700 --> 00:00:17.940
‘You wanna fight?’
00:00:17.940 --> 00:00:19.610
‘What?’ said the lion,
00:00:19.610 --> 00:00:21.070
‘Are you tired of living?’
00:00:21.070 --> 00:00:23.230
‘You think you’re so tough,’ said the gnat,
00:00:23.230 --> 00:00:26.620
‘“King of all the beasts” – I can take you!’
00:00:26.620 --> 00:00:29.730
‘You uppity little spec,’ said the lion.
00:00:29.730 --> 00:00:31.060
‘Come on then!’
00:00:31.060 --> 00:00:34.580
The gnat went straight for the lion’s nose and bit.
00:00:34.580 --> 00:00:36.010
‘Ow!’ said the lion.
00:00:36.010 --> 00:00:40.110
Desperate, he tore the soft skin of his nose with his own claws.
00:00:40.110 --> 00:00:41.610
‘You give up?’ said the gnat.
00:00:41.610 --> 00:00:42.870
‘Yes,’ said the lion.
00:00:42.870 --> 00:00:44.060
‘Ha ha,’ said the gnat.
00:00:44.060 --> 00:00:46.600
‘I won! I beat the great lion!
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:49.910
That makes me tougher than the king of all the beasts.
00:00:49.910 --> 00:00:51.890
I’m the toughest of them all!’
00:00:51.890 --> 00:00:54.940
And in his delight the gnat did a loop-the-loop
00:00:54.940 --> 00:00:57.670
straight into a spider’s web.
