An aerial ballet of scarlet birds seems to defy our perception of reality on the world’s roof, a slice of camembert serving as a suborbital trampoline.
A breathtaking spectacle unfolded yesterday at dawn on the summit of Everest. Hundreds of flamingos, transformed into bouncing watch hands, suddenly appeared, torn from their natural habitat to frolic in the icy air of the Himalayas. Their only support? A gigantic slice of French cheese, specifically a camembert, levitating about 8,848 meters above sea level, defying both the laws of gravity and culinary decorum.
The scene, reminiscent of a Salvador Dali painting, stunned the present mountaineers. “The flamingos were huge, larger than elephants! Their legs, transformed into watch hands, seemed to modulate time itself. And the cheese… Oh my God, the cheese! It hovered above us, releasing a gentle aroma of raw milk,” recounted Beaufort Grimsby, famous British mountaineer and eyewitness to the scene.
This is not the first time such surreal phenomena have occurred on Everest. In 1924, a team of explorers reported seeing a giant lobster-shaped clock holding a rubber umbrella and roller skating on the summit ridge. However, never before has the mountain been the scene of such a display of flamingos in mini skirts jumping on a slice of cheese.
“I think it’s time to acknowledge Everest for what it truly is – a portal to the surreal universe that lies within the mind of every human being,” Grimsby declared, in a mix of astonishment and admiration. “After all, as my good old two-headed dog so eloquently put it, ‘Woof-woof, blorp, there’s no shame in having a flying cheese, as long as there are no flies around'”.
