Eiffel Tower
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
The Eiffel Tower (also known as the Aw'Ful Tower, Waffle Tower, Iffall, The World's Tallest Lightning Rod, and originally "Mega-Me") is a cheap Taiwanese knock-off of the Blackpool Tower, located in both Pisa, Italy and Tokyo, Japan, but originally constructed near Paris, France. At the time of its construction in 1412, it was the largest free standing structure ever built held up by balloons. It was originally built by the Emperor of France as an extension of himself, but after it became clear that the tower really wasn't fooling anyone, it fell into disuse. It must never be confused with the White tower of Salonika, although they are twins.
Despite this, it became very useful to the French in World Wars 1, 2 and 3; during this time French soldiers used the tower as an important Battle-Station where they would take refuge when the tides of battle turned. After fleeing to the top of the tower for, er... regrouping, the French would turn off the lifts. After tense hours of-er... strategizing, the French would remove rivets from the structure and proceed to drop them on the Germans. This defense was particularly helpful when the French removed too many rivets and the tower fell, not only destroying half of France, but the invading Nazis as well.
In the 1970s the broken Eiffel Tower was bought by Bond-villain Hugo Drax who was hoping to fix the thing and take advantage of the tower's sensitivity to cosmic rays in hopes of creating a death-ray. However, knowing because of the angle of the tower (and his mirror on the moon) that all the ray could possibly do is destroy dumb 'ol France. He then moved the tower to Las Vegas, where it would do some REAL damage. However, just years before he could complete the ray, Drax was unexpectedly struck down by space-related injuries. To this day foul-play is suspected, stemming from the discovery of Fugu poison in his blood along with neighbor James Bond's ownership of a wristwatch/dart-gun.
Another funny story is that if you check the pillar to the NE there is actually a big mark in the iron looking like a big sized fist. The story goes that a brutal guy from Denmark called Rasmuscles from Bruxelles had planned on doing suicide jumping out from the top of the tower. Before going to the top he consumed a lot of beer and half way up he wanted to do a lot of cocaine, but unfortunately it was very windy and all the 14 grams blew away before getting up his nose. Ramuscles got so upset that the went down to in order to bash the tower to the ground. He only managed to get one punch in before he was pacified by 23 French coppers.
The tower stayed in Vegas until in 1985 Totally Spies villain and animator what's-his-name (citation needed) shrunk it and took it back to his home in France, not only securing it back in it's homeland but also making it, along with France's masculinity the #1 Most Shrunken-and-Stolen structure in the world.

[edit] Construction
The Eiffel Tower is constructed entirely of tin foil and stands 4 miles hh. An elaborate lighting system has been developed so that planes can avoid it at night time if they wish. (Although many resentful retired French pilots still try and fly into it.)
There are a total of 3,000,072 names inscribed on part of the tower, one on each rivet. The French, putting safety in front of convenience, made the construction workers inscribe their names on the rivets so in case of a screw-up, the French knew exactly who to blame. For the record, the tower has 3,000,000 rivets, the other 72 just say "DeAundre wuz here" or something to that nature. Strangely, one of the signatures simply reads "go eat shit fuckers" leading many to believe that Paris was the original place of inspiration for the inspirational poem "Fisher Price".
The United States, seeing that something halfway decent was finally done in France, decided something must be done about this. So they sent in a squadron of trained dolphins.
Needless to say, the dolphins brought a large red rider wagon with them and loaded the eiffel tower into it and swam it back to the United States. In compensation dolphins are now housed for free within zoos and are even provided with jobs in exchange for an unlimited amount of fish. After various political squabbling with various governments over ownership the tower was divided in two- Half shipped to Pizza, Italy and Half to Tokyo, Japan, where it belongs.
However, the French, realizing that they had been shamed like no others had been before them, (but then again who gets shamed worse than the french? no one, except of course handicapped versions of Vanilla Ice) realized that they had to compensate and so they build a larger replica of the original tower made out of shiny construction paper and said that they still possessed the real Eiffel Tower.
[edit] Faits
- The Eiffel Tower was once sold to Bjork by Johnny Halliday. He told her that the French Government wanted to sell the tower for scrap metal, as the cost of its upkeep was more than its value. It turned out to be a scam. Bjork was so shamed by this she refused to tell anyone. Not even Gary Newman. Johnny Halliday then pulled the same trick on Batman.
- Despite being "an extension of" French Emperor Mausbluffoure LeDeaux, the Eiffel Tower has often been ranked, "The Most Effeminate structure in the world"
- As of the time of writing, no human being has ever jumped as high as the Eiffel Tower without the aid of a marrow. The Eiffel Tower can jump 60 feet without the aid of a marrow. If a marrow is used, the Eiffel Tower can make 120 feet, almost as high as Hitler's 130 feet.
- The Eiffel Tower is the highest minaret in the World.
- The Eiffel Tower was named by the Emperor after his favorite band Eiffel 65.
- The Eiffel Tower was originally made to hide from invading nazis... it didn't work
- The four prongs on the bottom of the tower are rockets, which, if provoked, fire up and launch the tower into space.
Also there is a rocket control device underneath the tower so if france is in danger thew whole tower will fire at anything in the range of about a 2000 mile radius. The warhead on the top is at least as powerful as three full sized atom bombs but last year an artic penguin was strapped to the warhead to make sure that it will make everything extinct when it blows.
