POLISH JOKE

Historical record from James Callow Folklore Archive.

THERE WERE FOUR AMERICANS AND ONE POLOCK IN AN AIRPLANE. THE PLANE
STARTED TO CRASH BUT THERE WERE ONLY FOUR PARACHUTES. THREE
AMERICANS JUMPED OUT WITH A PARACHUTE EACH. ONE AMERICAN AND ONE
POLOCK WERE LEFT WITH ONE PARACHUTE. THE AMERICAN SAID, "I'LL JUMP
DOWN WITH THE PARACHUTE AND WHEN I LAND I'LL SHINE A FLASHLIGHT UP
TO YOU AND YOU CAN CLIMB DOWN THE BEAM." THE POLOCK SAID, "HOW
DUMB DO YOU THINK I AM? I KNOW THAT WHEN I GET HALFWAY DOWN, YOU
ARE GONNA TURN OFF THE LIGHT."
