Newfie Fire Fighter
Paddy, was walking along the street during his once-in-a-lifetime visit to New York when he rounds a corner and there's a high rise building on fire.
Paddy, ever the kind-hearted and resourceful Newfie, runs up to the building to see if he can help, and notices people trapped five stories up.
Paddy yells to the people: 'I'm Patrick Sean Michael Fitzpatrick, the Newfie Rugby Union fullback!
If you jump, I'll catch you, I've only had 6 pints to drink all today!"
One lady, in desperation, jumps and sure enough Paddy catches her.
Then a man sees that Paddy catches the women and he jumps.
Sure enough, Paddy catches him also.
Then a black man jumps out and crashes to the sidewalk.
Paddy didn't even attempt to catch him.
Paddy looks up and yells:
"Don't be throwin' out the burnt ones!"
