Olev and Sven
Olev and Sven are bungee-jumping one day. Olev says to Sven, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in Mexico. They don't have it there."
Olev thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy everything they'll need: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc. They
travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they are
constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble below. Slowly, more
and more people gather to watch them at work. When they had finished,
there was such a crowd they thought it would be a good idea to give a
demonstration. So Sven jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but
when he comes back up Ole notices that he has a few cuts and scratches.
Unfortunately, Olev isn't able to catch him, and he falls again, bounces
and comes back up again.&n! bsp; This time, he is bruised and bleeding.
Again
Olev misses him. Sven falls again and bounces back up. This time he
comes back pretty messed up, he's got a couple of broken bones and is
almost unconscious. Luckily, Olev finally catches him this time and
says,
"What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak. Sven gasps, "No the Bungee cord was fine. It
was the crowd. What the HELL is a pinata?"
