As they run, they come upon the edge of a cliff. With nowhere to run the decide to jump off.
Then out of nowhere, one of the men turns around and says to the others...
"I am a genie, and I may grant each of you a wish. As you jump off this cliff, yell out an object on which you want to fall."
One man decides that even though it seems very unlikely for this to be true, it's his best bet to escape from the police.
He jumps off and yells "PILLOWS!" at the top of his lungs. As he falls a huge pile of pillows materializes and breaks his fall.
Seeing that the genie was no joke the second man decided to give it a go, but with something a little more useful to him.
He throws himself off the cliff and shouts out "DOLLAR BILLS!" And a very large bundle is at the bottom to stop him from hurting himself.
Now the last man to jump off has seen what the powers can do. He knows he can not only survive, but make it rich. He decides he's going to ask for a huge pile of golden thread to land on, and sell to make it big.
So he runs towards the edge at full speed, ready to scream his request to the heaven-sent genie. As he reaches the edge, he trips on a small boulder and yells,
"OH SHIT!"
