Why don't you go jump off a cliff?!

He flexes his muscles, showing his rippling biceps;



Then, he strikes his war pose, sending shock and awe in all who watch;



He thumps his mighty chest in preparation of a great show of manly testosterone;



He steals himself.....hmm, maybe this isn't really that great of an idea...



Too late! He casts his body into the billowing surge like a man, with cool disregard for safety, posterity, and sanity!



Not to be outdone, the OTHER brother-in-law attempts to save face;



He casts his eyes to the setting sun; almost as if to say farewell...



And with a mighty thrust, he launches himself into the abyss.



Behold, a new species emerges, sleek and trim;



He scorns the danger, laughing into her very face;



And then, miraculously, he floats effortlessly to the surf below!




Finally, the little cub emerges;



She has watched her Father closely;



Perhaps, a little too closely....



With the help of her Father, she too selects a perch




And then, heedless of the danger, she leaps into the vast ocean like a tadpole into the gaping jaws of the turtle!

What a cute post! That looked like a huge cliff, it was probably scary to watch them plummet off that thing! I love how little Annie did the big pose prior to jumping too....what a cutie!
