During the Second World War, a Briton,and a Pole were captured by the Germans. Each man was sentenced to stand
before a firing squad.The Briton was the first to be put again
the wall. Standing back, the German officer
said, "Ready, aim-

At which point the Briton interrupted by shouting "Earthquake!"

The firing squad ran for cover, and the Briton
escaped

Regrouping, the Germans put the Frenchman against the wall. Once again the oberst said,Ready, aim

"Flood!" Taking a leaf from the Briton's book, the Frenchman yelled.

Once again the Germans panicked, and the prisoner escaped

Finally the Polish resistance fighter faced the guns, ready to repeat the ploy of his pre-decessors. The oberst said, "Ready, aim-

"Fire!" hollered the Pole.
