Two hikers are out hiking. All of a

sudden, a bear starts chasing them.
They climb a tree, but the bear
starts climbing up the tree after them.
The first hiker gets his
sneakers out of his knapsack and starts
putting them on.

The
second hiker says, “What are you doing?”

The first responds, “I
figure when the bear gets close to us, we’ll
have to jump down and
make a run for it.”

The second says, “Are you crazy? Don’t you
know you can’t outrun a
bear?

The first guy says, “I don’t
have to outrun the bear… I only have
to outrun you!”
