......and obviously, the heavier the monkey, the faster it would fall. It would be bad form to have say a non-uniform weighting of Howlers, Proboscises and small Marmosets. Given the different rates of descent, people would cheat and start popping them in the tree before the man with the stick commenced proceedings, and with guns about things could turn ugly. I think you're wise to save your money, maybe for the Ice Skating Giraffe Blunderbuss Festival.
