I bet you 75 cents
that if I jump off the house
an umbrella trailing behind me
I will fly to the end of the yard.
A dollar fifty if I can make it across
the noisy street
full of angry traffic.
Remember, I get three tries.
If I lose, you have to try too.
For 75 whole cents!
Ready!
Set!
Jump!

Not such I could contain the laughter after your 3rd attempt, but I'm in... Call it 50p?
Hell yeah let's do it
Sure * that should of said but sure again my friend!
ha ha - made me laugh so........ don't jump...... I know someone who when young thought he would fly off a scoreboard to impress his mother......... it didn't work out so well. She broke her leg jumping out of a moving car to save him .... and he broke too. She learned, he didn't and went on to parachute jump over 2000 times.
I'm sure the character did.
