ARMY CHOPPER PILOT

After his chopper was hit and he was forced to eject, the Army pilot finally regained consciousness. He was in a hospital, in a lot of pain. He found himself in the ICU with tubes/IV drips in both arms, a breathing mask, wires monitoring every function and a nurse hovering over him, looking worried.

It was obvious he was in a life-threatening situation. The nurse gave him a serious look, straight into his eyes. Knowing he was not only a seasoned chopper pilot, but a combat veteran, she put it to him straight on, softly and slowly, enunciating each word: "You may not feel anything from the waist down."

Somehow he managed to mumble in reply, "Can I feel your boobs, then?

And that, my friends, is a real positive attitude.

:woohoo: :whistle:

Aside from the fact that helicopters don't have ejection systems, it's an example that Army chopper pilots don't take No for an answer.

A helicopter is a collection of rotating parts going round and round and reciprocating parts going up and down - all of them trying to become random in motion. Helicopters can't really fly - they're just so ugly that the earth immediately repels them.

But did the story make you smile?
