Cliff Jumping Mishap

Two men are standing on top of a cliff. One has a budgie on his shoulder, the other has a parrot. The first man jumps off the cliff. Halfway down, the budgie flies off, and the man continues to fall until he hits the ground in a crumpled heap.

The second man then jumps off the cliff. Halfway down, the parrot flies off, but the man quickly pulls out a gun and shoots it dead. The man then lands in a similar heap beside his friend.

The first man looks up and says, "Geez, that budgie jumping isn't any fun." To which the second man replies, "I can't recommend the free-fall parrot-shooting either."
