He propped it in its hole, got a ladder and a tape measure and tried to climb up to measure it, but the flagpole fell down. Twice again he propped it up and tried to climb it. Finally a helper said, "Why don't you measure it when it's on the ground?" Van der Merwe said, "Stupid Fellow! I want to know its height, not its width."
