The pilot came back and said, "People, there are four of us but only three parachutes. I have to take one because I'm needed by the airline company. You three can figure out who gets the last two 'chutes." And with that he took a parachute and jumped out.
The smartest man in the world said, "The world needs me!" He grabbed a 'chute and jumped out.
"Son," the priest said to the boy scout, "You take the last parachute. I'm old and I've lived my life. I'm ready to meet my maker."
"Oh, its alright Father," the boy scout replied. "The smartest man in the world took my knapsack."

Sounds like this one.....
An Englishman, a Frenchman, a Mexican and a Texan on a plane. Three parachutes.
Englishman grabs a chute, yells “God save the Queen” and jumps out.
Frenchman grabs a chute, shouts “Vive le France” and jumps out.
Texan puts on a chute, drags the Mexican to the door, yells “Remember the Alamo” and kicks the Mexican out.
And remember the scene in one of the Hot Shots movies where they are jumping out of the plane, everyone yelling “Geronimo!” then an Indian steps to the door of the plane and yells, “MEEEEEEEE!!!”
