Johnny tells his buddy, Mike "Man, I had the scare of my life this weekend!" "What happened?" "I was walking across a meadow in the mountains and decided to take a nap. When I woke up, there was a BIIIGG bear standing there glaring at me."
Mike asks " What did you do?!" Johnny says " I looked around and the nearest tree was a couple of hundred yards away, so when the bear looked away for a second, I started running for that tree. As I got closer, I saw the first branch on that tree was about 20 feet above the ground. I looked back and the bear was gaining on me. When I got to the tree, I made the highest jump I ever made in my life."
By this time Mike was getting excited and exclaimed " Did you catch the branch? " Johnny says " I missed it on the way up, but I caught that sucker on the way down!"
