My friend Tony and I went to the National Air Show last year. We walked around and saw this guy with an old W.W.I Bi-Plane. There was a sign that read,"$50.00 to fly. If I can't make you scream in 15 minutes...DOUBLE YOUR MONEY BACK".
Well my friend Tony really wanted to try this so he talked me into it and we approached the old man and told him that the two of us wanted to take his challenge.
We each gave him $50.00 and Tony and I climbed in the back seat and the pilot went in the front and to the controls.
Well he took off and immediately went ballistic!
He did loop de loops, summersaults, barnstormed, everything imaginable.
Finally after fifteen minutes he landed.
He came to me and said,"Well sonny I've been doing this for twenty years and I never ever had someone not scream, here's your money doubled".
I told him,"Well you almost had me old timer".
He questioned,"Really, when I did the barnstorming"?
I shook my head and said," No".
He then asked,"When I did those summer saults"?
I again shook my head and said,"Nope".
He asked again,"When I went straight down and pulled the plane up at the last second"?
I shook my head and replied,"No sorry".
Finally he asked,"Well when then"?
I answered,"When you did those loop de loops, way up high, and my friend Tony fell out"
