I agree, the woman's weight would put significant strain on the giraffe's neck as it was lifting her up, and giraffes can't afford to have their heads lowered for too long as it would cause an excess of blood to flow to their brain possibly leading to a haemorrhage.
I had to go to my parents' place to serve candy this year becasue my mother forgot what day Halloween was. She'd bought a whole lot of candy, and a Halloween doorbell, but made no other preparations, so I had to improvise.
