Al and Joe are bungee-jumping one day. Al says to Joe, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service down in Mexico."
Joe thought this was a great idea so they pooled their money together and bought everything they needed: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc. They traveled to a small Mexican town and began to set up their stuff.
As they were constructing the tower, a crowd began to gather around them. Slowly, more people gathered to watch them work. When they had finished, there was such a crowd, they thought they would give a demonstration, so Al jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord but when he comes back up Joe notices that he has a few cuts and scratches.
Unfortunately, Joe isn't able to catch him and Al falls again. He bounces and comes back up again. This time he is bruised and bleeding. Again Joe misses him. Al falls again and bounces back up. This time he comes back up pretty messed up....he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious. Luckily Joe finally catches him and asks, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak, Al gasps, "No, the bungee cord was fine. It was the crowd. What the hell is a pinata?"
