smartest man in the world (words of wisdom from a child) ( Archived) (3)

This is a old one, but here goes...The smartest man in the world, the president of the United States and a hippy are flying across the U.S when the captian of the plane comes over the loud speaker and says "the plane is going to crash and that everyone aboard needs to meet in the back of the plane". They all meet, including the captain, only to notice that there are only 3 parachutes and 4 of them...very quickly the president grabs one and says, "I am the president of my counrty, I rule my country". He jumps out. The smartest man in the world grabs one and says. I am the smartest man in the world, I can change the fate of the world with my ideas and inventions". He jumps out. so this leaves the hippy and the captain with only one parachute. The captain looks at the hippy and says." I am the captain I will go down with my ship". The hippy winks at the captain and says "Hey man dont worry the smartest man in the world just jumped with my backpack".
