A Pope, a boy scout, and the smartest guy in the world are on an airplane that is going down (because the pilot had a heart attack).

The boy scout says, Well, there are only two parachutes aboard. Who is going to use them?Since I am the smartest guy in the world I feel I need to use a parachute. So, he grabs a bag and jumps out.Looks like there is only one left, and since I have lived a full life you can use the other parachute. said the Pope.No. We can both live! says the boy scout.How? asked the Pope.The smartest guy in the world grabbed my backpack, not the parachute!
