I think I found the funniest version of "The tortoise and the hare" tale type just now 😄 From Japan.
It is about a centipede and a slug running a race to a shrine. Obviously the centipede gets there first, but when the slug arrives, centipede is still taking his sandals off, so slug enters the shrine first.
😆

Reminds me of a woman mixing concrete by pouring the materials onto an old piece of plywood and turning them over with a shovel.
A man walks up and says, "This would go way faster if you rented a mixer from Home Depot. If you don't have a pickup truck, you can rent a trailer from them as well. Don't forget the fuel for it, and you might want ear protection for the noise. Also..."
While he is speaking, she finishes up and moves on to the next part of her project.

Amazing fable!
From the comments, it is obvious everybody gets the joke about number of feet.
Also, in the German version, of putting shoes ON in the first half of the race.
But fewer people in the West get the need for taking shoes OFF before entering a shrine
