Well, it is more like a bad Kung Fu film but with monkeys.

The monkeys were taught Tae Kwon Do for amusement in China. Little did the teacher know that one false move and he was primate attacked by his primate students.




Lo Wung, 42, taught the monkeys so they could entertain crowds outside a shopping centre in Nshi, in eastern China's Hubei province.
But the money-spinning primates turned the tables on their trainer when he slipped during a show, with one quick-thinking monkey flooring him with a kick to the head.
Hu Luang, 32, a bystander who photographed the incident, said: "I saw one punch him in the eye - he grabbed another by the ear and it responded by grabbing his nose. They were leaping and jumping all over the place. It was better than a Bruce Lee film."
At one point the monkey trainer grabbed a staff to hit the monkeys, only to find himself facing a stick-brandishing monkey that cracked him over the head.
He only managed to get the monkeys under control by tangling them up in the rope that had been used to stop them running off.

Do I smell a children's animated film in the making? Or perhaps a mammal version of "Snakes on a Plane".

Maybe Kung Fu chimps on a bus where Keanu Reeves has to thwart not only them but also a mad bomber.

That may just work

That's HILARIOUS and serves him right... punishing them by making them kneel and tying their hands/paws behind their backs? I don't care how smart they are, they're still wild animals - I think this guy is an idiot and deserved what he got.
