Ole says to Sven, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own
Bungee-jumping service in Mexico."
Sven thinks it's a great idea, and so they pool their money and buy
Everything they'll need: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel to Mexico and begin to set up their equipment on the town
Square. As they constructed the tower, a crowd began to assemble. Slowly,
more and more people gathered to watch them at work.
When the tower was finished, the crowd was so large that Ole and Sven
thought it would be smart to give a demonstration. They climbed the tower
together. Ole strapped Sven into the harness -- and Sven jumped. Sven
bounced at the end of the cord, but when he came back up, Ole noticed
be had a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately, Ole couldn't grab him before
he fell again. When he bounced up a second time, Sven was bruised and bleeding.
Again, Ole failed to catch him. Sven went down again and bounced back up. By
the time Ole caught him, Sven was nearly unconscious, with a couple of
broken bones. Alarmed, Ole asked, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak, Sven gasped, "No, the bungee cord was fine. It was the
crowd....... What the hell is a piñata?"
