Two men are sitting at the bar at the top of the
Empire State Building drinking, when the first man
turns to the other one and says: "You know, last
week I discovered that if you jump from the top of this
building, by the time you fall to the 10th floor,
the wind around the building is so intense that it
carries you around the building and back into the window"
The bartender just shakes his head in disapproval
while wiping the bar, but says nothing.
The second guy says, "What? Are you insane? There's no way in
hell that could happen!""No, no... it's true..." said
the first man, "let me prove it to you." He gets up
from the bar, jumps over the balcony and plummets
toward the street below. When he passes the 10th floor,
the high wind whips him around the building and back
into the 10th floor window. He takes the elevator back
up to the bar. He meets the second man, who is
astonished. "Oh my God, I saw that with my own
eyes! But that must've been a one-time fluke. That was
scientifically impossible!"
"No, I'll prove it again," says the first man as he jumps.
Again, just as his body hurtles towards the
street, the 10th floor wind gently carries him around the
building and into the window. He takes the
elevator back to the bar. Once upstairs, he successfully
convinces his dubious fellow drinker to try it.
"Well, what the hell," the second guy says, "I've seen
that it works, so I'll try it!" He immediately jumps
over the balcony - plunges downward rapidly pass the
11th, 10th, 9th, 8th floors.... Then his body hits the
sidewalk.... Splat!!!!!
Back upstairs, the bartender who had been silent
the whole time turns to the first drinker, and shakes
his head and says..... "You know, Superman, you're a
real asshole when you're drunk."
