that's a problem cough, giraffes can't support the weight of their necks on their sides and sleep crouched and for short periods at a time. You'd need more people to hold the neck then you would to pick the damn thing up and carry it....
H3ad, two question though...where does the giraffe need to be transported, and last but not least...why can't it walk there on its own?

As anyone who has ever loaded a deer onto a four-wheeler can agree, an unconscious giraffe would be difficult to lift, even for eight guys...
I thought we'd just talk her into standing still and keep her legs rigid... although if unconscious, you could build a large litter to lift with... However, it might look suspicious carrying an unconscious giraffe out of a bar... |

well, it's a hypothetical giraffe... and doesn't actually need to be transported, just lifted... a foot or two would do, just to see if it can be done, and by how many hypothetical blokes...

One man could do it. As Archimedes almost said "Give me a place to stand and I will move the giraffe".
