Funny doctor story

Recommended Posts

I went into the doctor for a check up etc for our trip to the amazon. Nurse asked me to take off my shoes and step up on the scale. She asked me how much I thought I weighed, in which I replied "250 out the door" and never even thought twice about it. She looks at me and goes, you've lost a lot of weight Chris congrats! You're down to 220lbs

lol it wasn't till then that I realized what I had told her lol
<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist!

Reminds me of the time I waited a long time, tired, first in line at the terminal in St. Louis to try and get in one of the legroom rows - the emergency exit rows on the wing.

Guy arrives behind the counter and while he's getting me the seat, he remembers to ask "you're in good physical shape, for the door requirements, right?" And I'm beat so I just say "Oh, yeah, I open airplane doors and jump out all the time." Poor guy, but he handled it well.

He he.. I had a similar experience, two old people asked me why I brought my parachute on the airplane. I told I was scared, because out of the 200 times I had been on an airplane, I only landed it 3 times... :S

No shit...traffic control sent us down once this saturday. Next time it happens above 1500', I'm getting out no matter where.:P Our pilot did what could be described as a low (as in 'stare at the ground 50' from the wingtip' low) carving 180° to final, took the plane up a bit, cut back on the throttle so we all got a bit "floaty" for a moment and then brought us down hard enough for the plane to bounce. Scariest ride I ever had!

I remember a similar story. Interestingly, it was on the way to Hawaii. The pilot bounced the plane in, and the captain came on as we taxied, saying something to the effect of "the second landing was free!" I remembered it the first time I heard "Two for one" for a tandem reserve ride.

Second? Heck, I've seen our pilot get three, and even four landings with just one takeoff...:P
[edit - but then again, it's also normal for this plane to get three takeoffs with just one takeoff...
