A group of frogs was traveling through the woods and two of them fell into a deep pit. All the other frogs gathered around the pit and watched as the imprisoned frogs tried to jump out. The frogs on top could see there was no way out and they started yelling at the frogs to give up. "The pit is too deep. You're as good as dead," the chorus said. When the trapped frogs kept trying, the crowd yelled louder, "Give up. You're as good as dead." After a while one of the exhausted frogs took heed at what the others were saying, and he fell down and died.
