Reminds mo of a joke What did Geronimo say when he jumped out of an airplane? MEeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Security guards talked the man off the ledge, said Jofre, who added, “We’re relieved that he didn’t die.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Forget that. What about being relieved he didn’t jump and LAND on some innocent people? I’d be annoyed if even I got splatter, much less a direct hit.
I was up there many years ago and don’t remember how the observative deck was set up back then except I remember you couldn’t fall off for sure. Wonder how he did that without someone seeing the attempt as it surely would require climbing above covered areas. Strange.
A man fallos off the Empire State Building. Survives. A passerby approaches him lying on the sidewalk and asks: “— What happened?”
The man answers: “— I don’t know, I just got here.”
A man falls off the Empire State Building. Survives. Somebody finds a blanket, covers him, while they wait for amber lamps. He asks him: “— Are you comfortable?”
The man answers: “— Yes, quite, I’ve got a good job, home in the suburbs, two car garage, a Lincoln Continental.”
Okay...Okay Honey...I’ll eat the mushrooms.
I am going to check back on this thread in a few hours. I can see it’s off to an intriguing start.
The bad news:
He’s still suicidal, and he’s on top of a very tall landmark again.
The good news:
It’s the Giza Pyramid.
(This is gonna be almost like one of those Snickers commercials.)
Before you jump off the 87’th floor check to make sore floor 86 does not have a balcony.
...a crumbled up donkey found at the base of the Empire State building. Passerby noticed body underneath, they roll the carcass off and the guy underneath is wearing a T-shirt with Evil Garcia on it.
Now how in the world did he climb over the fence surrounding the observation platform to jump?
I’ve been there! It’s like an open top cage with a top section rounded back where you can’t scale it.
If you look closely, you can see the damage King Kong caused to the building.
If I was stuck in New York City jumping off the Empire State Building would no doubt seem reasonable.
Two men are sitting drinking at a bar at the top of the Empire State Building, when the first man turns to the other and says “You know, last week I discovered that if you jump from the top of this building, the winds around the building are so intense that by the time you fall to the 10th floor, they carry you around the building and back into a window.” The bartender just shakes his head in disapproval while wiping the bar.
The second guy says, “What, are you nuts? There’s no way that could happen.” “No, its true,” the first man says. “Let me prove it to you.” He gets up from the bar, jumps over the balcony, and plummets toward the street below. As he nears the 10th floor, the high winds whip him around the building and back into the 10th floor window and he takes the elevator back up to the bar.
He meets the second man, who looks quite astonished. “You know, I saw that with my own eyes, but that must have been a one time fluke.” “No, I’ll prove it again,” says the first man as he jumps again. Just as he is hurtling toward the street, the 10th floor wind gently carries him around the building and into the window. Once upstairs he urges his fellow drinker to try it.
“Well, why not.” the second guy says, “It works. I’ll try it.” He jumps over the balcony, plunges downward passes the 11th, 10th 9th, 8th, floors. . . . . and hits the sidewalk with a SPLAT.
Back upstairs the bartender turns to the other drinker and says, “You know Superman, you’re a real jerk when you’re drunk.”
