I'd say the best is when I was in Africa, I saw a hippo in a house. Someone had a pet hippo. And they're meant to be one of the most dangerous animals on the planet, and they had one that was sort of just wandering in and out of their house, just sort of roaming about.

I have a hippopotamus skull next to my bed, called Gregory. When I was six, my three sisters and I clubbed together and paid £4 for it in a junk shop. We collected owl pellets, ostrich eggs and sheep skulls for our natural history museum at home.

I've worn a chainmail suit to swim with sharks, glided over Cirencester with a James Bond-style paramotor strapped to my back, eaten hippo steaks and had a bat dive down my bra. And all the while, I had to face the camera and smile.

British Celebrity

Bertrand Russell

There is no need to worry about mere size. We do not necessarily respect a fat man more than a thin man. Sir Isaac Newton was very much smaller than a hippopotamus, but we do not on that account value him less.

British Philosopher

Sam Richardson

What I find funny are peoples' blind spots. That's the funniest thing about anybody - when they just don't realize who they are. What's funny about seeing a hippo do ballet is it thinks it's a swan.

American Actor

Florentijn Hofman

I wanted to use the hippo to get people out of their homes, away from the Internet and the TV, and to explore London with a new perspective.

Dutch Artist

Carl Sandburg

There is an eagle in me that wants to soar, and there is a hippopotamus in me that wants to wallow in the mud.

American Poet

Lewis Capaldi

I see all these posts saying, 'I met Lewis Capaldi,' and in the picture, I look like a melting hippo.

Scottish Musician

Nia Sharma

I am fine battling lions, tigers, snakes, bulls, even hippopotamuses, but not lizards.

 I was almost out of air, and I started to re-swallow my air, knowing that might help me conserve my air in staying calm and allowing me to try to survive in this moment, because I didn't know how long this was going to last. The hippo can hold its breath for two, three, five minutes.
