Bit of an unlikely one, but bear with me....
There are 3 people on a private jet. Pope John Paul II, David Beckham, and a 7 year old schoolgirl.

Halfway through the flight, at 30,000 feet, the co pilot comes back, to tell them that both engines are on fire, and that they have to abandon the plane by parachute.

The problem is, there are only 2 spare chutes, and 3 passengers.

On hearing this, Beckham grabs a chute and is straight out the door, without any thought for the other 2 passengers.

Which then left Pope JPII, and the little girl, with one chute.

"It's ok little girl" said the Pope. "I have led a good life, I am friends with God, I have nothing to fear through death.... you on the other hand are young, you have your whole life ahead of you... you take the chute my child, I'll remain"

The little girl thinks for a moment, and replies:

"That won't be necessary your popeness.... David grabbed my rucksack and jumped out of the door....."

Apologies for existing.....
