Three men, a Jamaican, a Trinidadian and a Barbadian were given death sentences and scheduled to be shot at dawn. The firing squad assembled and the Barbadian was the first to face them.
He thought furiously how he could save his life, and as the command : Ready, aim was given he shouted Earthquake!. Terrified at such a natural disaster, the firing squad ran away and the Barbadian escaped.
When the Jamaicans turn came, after Ready, aim he shouted Hurricane!. Again the firing squad was terrified and ran away and he escaped. The Trinidadian smiled as he was led to the execution spot; he was sure he would escape. As the command Ready, aim was given, with a broad grin he shouted: Fire!
