A YOUNG BOY WAS KIDNAPPED BY A GIANT WHO WAS PLANNING ON EATING
HIM AFTER FATTENING HIM UP WITH A LARGE MEAL.
THE BOY PLACED A BAG UNDER HIS SHIRT AND FILLED IT WITH THE FOOD
FROM THE GIANT'S TABLE.
THE BOY THEN SAID "I AM SURE FULL" AS HE TOOK A KNIFE AND CUT THE
BAG OPEN, SPILLING THE FOOD ONTO THE GROUND.
THE GIANT, WHO HAD BEEN EATING AT THE TIME AS WELL, GRABBED THE
KNIFE FROM THE BOY AND CUT OPEN HIS STOMACH.
THE GIANT DIED, AND THE BOY GOT AWAY.
