Speaking of the dangers of air flight, a young guy from a rural area of the country took his first airplane flight, a two hour evening trip. After about an hour the captain came on the intercom and announced that one of the four engines had stopped working and they would be delayed in reaching their destination by 20 minutes. A few minutes later the captain came on again and said that a second engine had gone out, and that their arrival would be delayed by 40 minutes. About five minutes later the captain announced that a third engine had failed, and they would be delayed by an hour. Upon hearing this, the novice flier exclaimed to the passenger next to him, "I hope that fourth engine doesn't go out--we'll be up here all night!"
