Origami artist asking for $24,000 so he can fold a huge piece of paper into a life size elephant

Source - His name is Sipho Mabona, he's a professional origami artist and he wants to create a life-size replica of an elephant from one single sheet of paper. He just needs $24,000 to do it.

Yup, Mabona has taken to Indiegogo to crowdfund his folding dreams, asking for your money so that he can build a 10-foot-tall elephant from a piece of paper measuring 50 by 50 feet. He's promised to install two cameras that will live video stream the whole endeavor, "so you, your friends and family can watch us." (By us, he means himself and his three assistants, because this whacky adventure is going to take more than a pair of hands.)

Is this guy fucking kidding me? He's not even doing it himself, and this isn't cool. If you can make an elephant out of a regular piece of paper this is the exact same thing just bigger. It's like if you can cook a dish, but now you need it to serve more people, you just use more of the ingredients at the same proportion. Folding a big piece of paper in the exact same way you fold a small one isn't hard. And yea at the end I will be looking at a life size elephant that the wind can blow over. Uh sweet? For 24 grand the thing better speak English. 

PS Cut costs on the live stream, bro. I don't want to watch you fold paper.
