A brunette, a redhead, and a blonde escape a burning building by climbing to the roof. Firemen are on the street below, holding a blanket for them to jump into. The firemen yell to the brunette, “C’mon! Jump! You gotta jump!”



The brunette jumps and the firemen are unable to position the blanket properly. Sadly, the brunette slams into the sidewalk like a tomato.

Then, the redhead steps to the edge of the roof. Again, the firemen yell, “C’mon! Jump! You gotta jump!”

“Oh no! You’re gonna put blanket in the wrong place!”

“No! We’ve go it covered! We’ll catch you!” yell the firemen.

The redhead jumps and, again, the firemen are unable to position the blanket properly. Sadly, the redhead also slams into the sidewalk like a tomato.


Finally, the blonde steps to the edge of the roof. Again, the firemen yell, “C’mon! Jump! You gotta jump!”

“Oh no! You’re gonna put blanket in the wrong place!”

“No! We’ve go it covered! We’ll catch you!” yell the firemen.

“Look,” says the blonde, “nothing you say is gonna convince me that you’re gonna catch me with that blanket… so, what I want you to do is put the blanket down and then I’ll jump.”
