A couple of hunters chartered a small plane to fly them to a forest,and made an appointment with the pilot to come back and fetch them in about two weeks. At the end of the two weeks, they had shot a lot of animals that they wanted to load onto the plane. But the pilot said, "This plane won't be able to take more than one wild buffalo. You'll have to leave the others behind." Then the hunters protested, saying, "But last year, another pilot with the same airplane let us take two buffalos and some other animals in the plane as well."So the new pilot thought about it. He was a little bit skeptical, but finally he said, "OK, since you did it last year, I guess this year we can do it again." Then he loaded the two buffalos and a few other animals in, and the plane took off. Five minutes later, it crashed in a neighboring area.The three men climbed out and looked around, and one hunter said to the other, "Where do you think we are now?" The second one surveyed the area and said, "I think we're about one mile to the left of the place we crashed last year."

有兩個獵人包機前往一座森林，到了以后，他們和飛行員約定好兩周后來接。兩周后，他們射了許多動物，而且打算把這些動物全部搬上那架小飛機，可是飛行員說：這架飛機除了一頭野牛外，沒辦法再多載了。你們必須把其他的獵物都留下。獵人說：但是去年另一個飛行員開一樣的飛機，就讓我們帶兩只水牛，還有一些其他的動物上機！因為他們這樣抗議，所以那個新飛行員想了一想后，盡管還是有點存疑，最后還是妥協說：好吧！如果去年可以做到，今年應該也可以。所以他裝了兩頭水牛和一些其他的動物。結果飛機起飛五分鐘后，就墜落在鄰近的地方。這3個人從飛機爬出來看了看四周，其中一個獵人對另一個說：你認為我們現在在哪兒？那個人瞧了一下，說：我想大概距離去年墜機的地方西邊一英哩遠！
