Parachutes Shortage Joke
One night, a Delta twin-engine puddle jumper was flying somewhere above
New Jersey. There were five people on board: the pilot, Michael Jordan,
Bill Gates, the Dali Lama, and a hippie. Suddenly, an illegal oxygen generator
exploded loudly in the luggage compartment, and the passenger cabin began
to fill with smoke. The cockpit door opened, and the pilot burst into
the compartment.
"Gentlemen," he began, "I have good news and bad news.
The bad news is that we're about to crash in New Jersey. The good news
is that there are four parachutes, and I have one of them!" With
that, the pilot threw open the door and jumped from the plane.
Michael Jordan was on his feet in a flash. "Gentlemen," he said,
"I am the world's greatest athlete. The world needs great athletes.
I think the world's greatest athlete should have a parachute!" With
these words, he grabbed one of the remaining parachutes, and hurtled through
the door and into the night.
Bill Gates rose and said, "Gentlemen, I am the world's smartest man.
The world needs smart men. I think the world's smartest man should have
a parachute, too." He grabbed one, and out he jumped. The Dali Lama
and the hippie looked at one another. Finally, the Dali Lama spoke. "My
son," he said, "I have lived a satisfying life and have known
the bliss of True Enlightenment. You have your life ahead of you; you
take a parachute, and I will go down with the plane."
The hippie smiled slowly and said, "Hey, don't worry, pop. The world's
smartest man just jumped out wearing my backpack."
