This guy goes up to a bar located at the top of the Empire State
Building in New York. It looks like a nice place and he takes a seat at the
bar next to another guy.
"This is a nice place, I've never been here", the first guy says.
"Oh really?", the other replies, "it's also a very special bar".
"Why is that?", the first guy asks. "Well, you see that painting on the far
wall? That's an original Van Gogh,
and this stool I'm sitting on was on the Titanic."
"Gee, that's amazing!", the first guy says.
"Not only that, but you see that window over there, fourth from the
right?
Well, the wind does strange things outside that window. If you jump out,
you'll fall about 50 feet before the wind catches you and you're pushed
back up."
"No way, that's impossible", the first guy replies.
"Not at all, take a look", the other man replies and walks over to the
window, followed closely by the first man. He opens the window, climbs over
the sill and falls out. He drops 10...20...30...40...50 feet, comes to a
stop, and whoosh! He comes right back up and sails back through the window.
"See, it's fun. You should try it", he says.
"Try it? I don't even believe I saw it!", the first man shouts.
"It's easy. Watch, I'll do it again". And with that, he falls out the
window again. He drops 10...20...30...40...50 feet, comes to a stop, and
whoosh!
He comes right back up and sails back through the window.
"Go ahead, give it a try, it's a blast", he says.
"Well, what the heck. OK, I'll give it a try", the first man says and
proceeds to fall out the window. He falls 10...20...30...
40...50...100...200...300...500...1000 feet and SPLAT! ....ends up as road
pizza on the sidewalk below.
After calmly watching the first man fall to his death, the other guy
casually closes the window and heads back to the bar and orders another
drink.
The bartender arrives with the drink and says, "You know Superman,
you're a real asshole when you're drunk". |
