Passengers on a Lufthansa flight heard this
announcement from the captain :
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am sorry to inform you
that we have lost power to all of our engines and
will shortly crash into the ocean". The passengers
were obviously very worried about this situation
but were somewhat comforted by the captain's next
announcement.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we at Lufthansa have
prepared for such an emergency and we would now
like you to rearrange your seating so that all the
non-swimmers are on the left side of the plane and
all the swimmers are on the right side of the
plane".
After this announcement all the passengers re-
arranged their seating to comply with the captain's
request. Two minutes later the captain made a belly
landing in the ocean. The captain once again made
an announcement:
"Ladies and Gentlemen we have crashed into the ocean.
All of the swimmers on the right side of the plane,
open your emergency exits and quickly swim away from
the plane. For all of the non-swimmers on the left
side of plane..."-Thank You For Flying Lufthansa- ".
