00:00Once upon a time, they lived an old couple in an old small shack next to a forest.

00:07They were living a happy and peaceful life.

00:09Their only regret was not having a child of their own.

00:13One day, when the old lady was making cookie dough in the kitchen, her husband came in.

00:20Darling, what are you cooking today?

00:23Oh, my darling, I'm baking a gingerbread man today.

00:30The old lady kneaded the dough and cut a gingerbread man shape.

00:35After putting it in the oven, she sat down and started to wait for the gingerbread man to bake.

00:42When she could smell the delicious cookie all around the air in the kitchen,

00:47she put on her oven gloves and took the gingerbread man out.

00:52Now it was time to decorate it.

00:56She made eyes out of raisins and a cute nose using candy.

01:02And then she used some cream to make his hair and clothes.

01:07And lastly, she used cherries to make some buttons for him.

01:12She had a look at her masterpiece and said,

01:15My gingerbread man looks beautiful, but I feel like something is missing.

01:22The old lady looked at him again and,

01:26Oh, his mouth. I forgot to make his mouth.

01:31She drew a mouth on the gingerbread man's face with the cream.

01:36Oh, yes, now you are complete, my gingerbread man.

01:41At that moment, something unexpected happened.

01:45But, but, how can it be? You are talking.

01:50Gingerbread man suddenly stood up and started running.

01:53Yeah, and I can also run.

01:58The gingerbread man jumped from the kitchen bench to the chair,

02:01then to the ground and started running fast to the kitchen door to the garden.

02:07Come back, come back.

02:11The old lady yelled.

02:13The gingerbread man began talking whilst he was running.

02:17Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can but nobody can catch me

02:22because I'm the gingerbread man.

02:25The old lady got out to the garden and started running after the gingerbread man.

02:29The man looked out the window and saw his wife running and yelled,

02:33Hey, where are you running?

02:36The old lady answered to her husband whilst running.

02:40My gingerbread man ran away. I'm trying to catch him.

02:48The old man was speechless.

02:50The old lady ran but the gingerbread man was so fast that it was impossible to catch him.

02:55After a short while, the gingerbread man came across a ranch.

02:59A grazing cow noticed him.

03:03Oh, what a nice cookie. I should catch and eat him.

03:08The cow also began to run after the gingerbread man.

03:11Wait, don't run. I'm going to eat you.

03:15Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can. An old lady is also trying to catch me

03:19but nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.

03:24The old lady and the cow were running after the gingerbread man.

03:29And at this time, a pig noticed the gingerbread man.

03:34A gingerbread man, true to my taste buds. Wait and I will catch you.

03:42The gingerbread man answered the pig whilst he was running.

03:45Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can. An old lady and a cow are also trying to catch me

03:52but nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.

03:56While they were running, the gingerbread man in front, the old lady, cow and the pig behind him,

04:01a chicken noticed the gingerbread man while looking for some food.

04:08That has to be my lunch.

04:10So the chicken tagged along.

04:12Run as much as you want, gingerbread man. I'm going to catch you.

04:17Yeah, run, run, as fast as you can. An old lady, a cow and a pig could not catch me.

04:24Neither can you. Nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.

04:30The gingerbread man in front, the old lady, cow, the pig and the chicken, they all continued to run.

04:37But the gingerbread man was getting more and more further ahead from the others.

04:42The gingerbread man was so happy and very proud of himself.

04:46I'm the brightest and the fastest gingerbread man in the world.

04:50Yes, that's me. Nobody can catch me because I'm the gingerbread man.

04:58When he looked ahead, soon the gingerbread man saw that he was coming across a river.

05:04And he stopped because he knew that water could make him melt away.

05:10Oh no, what now?

05:14The old lady, cow, pig and the chicken were close now.

05:19Right at that moment, a shifty fox appeared from behind a tree.

05:24I know how to swim. If you want, I can help you.

05:27The gingerbread man thought about it.

05:30What if you eat me?

05:32You don't have to worry. I don't want to eat you. I just want to help you get across.

05:38The gingerbread man trusted the shifty fox and jumped on his tail, holding on as tight as he could.

05:44The fox jumped in the river and began to swim.

05:47Meanwhile, the old lady, cow, pig and the chicken came to the edge of the river

05:53and saw the gingerbread man crossing the river on the back of a fox.

05:57Helplessly, they watched them go, knowing they could not catch him anymore.

06:02The river began to get deeper and the water started to rise.

06:06Hey fox, keep your tail up. I almost got wet.

06:10Up on my back, it's safer.

06:14The gingerbread man hopped on the fox's back.

06:17They swam for a while, but as the water got deeper, the fox's back began to sink in the water.

06:23I'm afraid that you'll get wet. Why don't you jump on my head, where it's a bit higher?

06:29The gingerbread man climbed up on his head.

06:32The fox continued to pursue his plan and dipped his head down in the water.

06:36The water has risen too much. Why don't you get on my nose? It's higher.

06:42So the gingerbread man got on top of his nose.

06:45Right when they were about to reach the shore, the fox tipped his nose,

06:49flipping the gingerbread man into the air and opened his mouth.

06:53The gingerbread man was going to fall into his mouth and the fox was going to eat him.

06:58But it didn't work. While the gingerbread man was in the air,

07:02a crow flying right above them caught the gingerbread man with his beak.

07:06The fox just stood there looking with his mouth open.

07:10The gingerbread man waited for the crow to fly a little further and asked,

07:15Do crows eat ginger cookies?

07:17Yep.

07:18When the crow opened his beak to speak,

07:20the gingerbread man fell down and began to run as fast as he could.

07:26Yeah, run, run as fast as you can, an old lady, a cow, a pig, a chicken, a fox and a crow

07:34also tried to catch me, but nobody can because I'm the gingerbread man.

07:40The gingerbread man kept on running and did not stop.

07:48If you see a gingerbread man pass you by running, do not try to catch him

07:53because he is the gingerbread man and nobody can dare catch him.
