What Does the Jumbo Personality Type Look Like?
Jumbo personalities are often depicted as big, round, and jolly. They are very friendly, kind, and caring. They are interested in people and their feelings. They are quiet and reserved compared to other personality types.
Jumbo personalities are sometimes mistaken for INFPs, which is understandable since they are both big, round, and jolly. The key difference is that Jumbos are more reserved and quiet than INFPs.
Jumbos love to read and write, and they love to tell stories and share their thoughts. They have a deep interest in people and their emotions. Jumbos don’t just want to feel others’ emotions—they want them to understand their own. They want to give feedback to others so they can get insight into their own feelings.
Jumbos get a lot of satisfaction from being deeply understood by others.
Jumbo (about December 25, 1860 – September 15, 1885), also known as Jumbo the Elephant and Jumbo the Circus Elephant, was a 19th-century male African bush elephant born in Sudan. Jumbo was exported to Jardin des Plantes, a zoo in Paris, and then transferred in 1865 to London Zoo in England. Despite public protest, Jumbo was sold to P. T. Barnum, who took him to the United States for exhibition in March 1882.
