Sunday afternoon:

Two Irishmen, Mick and Taffy, are standing at the edge of a medium-sized
cliff (about twenty meters high). 

Mick has a budgie perched on each of his shoulders, and Taffy has two
Parrots sitting on his.

"So are you ready then?" asks Taffy

"Sure," says Mick "...here I go then."

He leaps off the edge of the cliff, drops like a stone and splatters
himself against the rocks at the bottom - damaging himself quite badly.

Taffy takes one look at this and, after a moments hesitation, decides
he'll do better if he takes a bit of a run-up. He backs up a few paces,
sprints to the edge of the cliff, and jumps....

Splat! He too lands in a crumpled, badly damaged heap close to where
Mick is still trying to figure out what happened.

"I tell you one thing," says Mick, "this budgie jumping isn't for me...
eh?"

"Ay", says Taffy, "and this parrot gliding is quite dangerous too mate!"
