bungee jumping
Ok, this is wrong, but funny:
Alice and Frank are bungee-jumping one day. Alice says to Frank, "You
know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping
service in Mexico."
Frank 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 a square in a small town.
As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work.
When they finish, there's such a crowd they think it would be a good idea to give a demonstration.
So, Alice jumps. She bounces at the end of the cord, but when she comes
back up, Frank notices that she has a few cuts and scratches.
Unfortunately, Frank isn't able to catch her and she falls again,
bounces, and comes back up again. This time, she is bruised and
bleeding.
Again, Frank misses her. Alice falls again and
bounces back up. This time she comes back pretty messed up; she has a
couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious.
Luckily, Frank finally catches her this time and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak, Alice gasps, "No, the bungee cord was fine; it was the crowd. What in the world is a pinata?"
