Even if you set aside the facts that:
* There is no zoo in Paderborn, Germany.
* There is no record of any zookeeper named Friedrich Riesfeldt.
* This story was originally published in that pinnacle of quality journalism, the World Weekly News.
The photo still shows that the story is a complete fabrication.
* The incident supposedly took place in the evening, but the photo appears to have been taken at midday.
* The background shows an open African plain, not a German zoo with lots of buildings.
* Although the picture tries to do a convincing job of showing poor Herr Riesfeldt trapped under the pachyderm poop, it doesn't show the equipment he supposedly used to help the elephant with his problem.
