Nasruddin's Donkey

One day a couple of local mapmakers came to Mullah Nasruddin to ask if he could tell them the exact location of the center of the world?

"Yes," he replied. "It is just under the left hind of my donkey"

"Well, maybe! But do you have any proof", they responded.

"If you doubt my word, just measure and see."
