“Monkey business!” – Hilarious video shows Scots couple in stitches after trip to safari park gets rudely interrupted by amorous monkey

A HILARIOUS video shows the moment a Scots couple were left in stitches when their family trip to the safari park got rudely interrupted by an amorous monkey.

Footage shows Sean Nicol and Jay Murray-Patel sitting in their car with their two children in the drive-through area at Blair Drummond Safari Park in Stirling.

The clip starts with the couple from Edinburgh already having an eventful day after four-month-old Priya manages to poo all over her babygrow whilst in the car.

Sean, 32, can be heard saying: “What’s Priya doing? Uh oh.”

He then asks two-year-old Murray: “You watching the monkey? What’s the monkey doing?”

Sean and Jay, 26, then burst out laughing as they spot a cheeky monkey acting very rude nearby.

The camera then pans around to show the grey monkey sitting on the grass nearby brazenly fondling himself as families visit nearby.

The clip ends as the family, including little Murray, struggle to contain their laughter.

Sean posted the clip, which was captured during their visit in May, on Twitter yesterday (MON), writing: “Six months on and I can honestly say that I won’t forget our trip to the Safari Park in a hurry.”

Speaking today (TUE), Sean said: “To be fair, when we first saw the ‘action’ it was a bit of a distance from the car but when we got closer it was clear to see what was happening.

“Our little boy, Murray, had just turned two and had no idea what was going on. The ridiculous laugh that myself and my partner, Jay, produced seemed to tickle him though.

“It’s fair to say we laughed for days but thankfully less hyena-like than we did in the car.

“We spent the day there and then the night watching the video back on repeat.

“Like most things on social media, I always prefer the reaction of people to a video rather than the video itself. The fact that it is cracking so many people up is brilliant.”

The video has gained over 350,000 views and over 100 comments from amused viewers.

One said: “How is she so calm with that baby in her hands, kudos to that.”

Another wrote: “A day out you definitely won’t forget!”

A third commented: “This made my day.”

A fourth added: “My kid opening the window to share his crisps with a lion doesn’t seem so bad now.”

While one person merely wrote: “Monkey business.”
