A helicopter carrying passengers suddenly loses engine power and the aircraft begins
to decent. The pilot safely performs an emergency landing in water, and tells the
passengers to remain seated and to keep the doors closed, stating that in emergency
situations, the aircraft is designed to stay afloat for 30 minutes, giving rescuers time
to get to them. Just then a man gets out if his seat and runs over to open the door.
The pilots screams at him, “Didn’t you hear what I said, the aircraft is designed to stay
afloat as long as the doors remain closed?!”.
“Of course I heard you”, the man replied, “but it’s also designed to fly, and look how
good that one worked out!!”
