This paper aims to provide a groundbreaking investigation into the baffling existentialism of giraffes. By analyzing their high-altitude necks and prodigious leg-length, we argue that giraffes are perhaps the ultimate example of Camus' "absurd hero" - doomed to a life between the heavens and the earth. Through extensive fieldwork and interviews with giraffes, we sought to understand their paradoxical mindset - feeling both above and below the world, yet still very much a part of it. Giraffes, we conclude, represent the vertiginous and precarious nature of existence, and our findings raise important questions about the meaning of life, identity, and the ultimate futility of it all.
