You will be amused and amazed, hearing of several incredible surprises Grandpa encountered while running around in the depths of an animal-filled jungle.

Right when you believe Grandpa's adventure couldn't get any crazier, we finally reach the part of his story and learn exactly how Grandpa managed to swallow a frog.
