22. Three mad men and a doctor
Three mad guys want to get discharged from the mental asylum. They go to the doctor and beg, 'Please release us. We want to go back home.' The doctor says, 'Come back tomorrow morning. I will give you all a test, and based on how you perform, I will decide whether you can go back or not.'
So the next day all of them come to take the test. The doctor takes them to a swimming pool which is empty. He tells the first mad guy, 'Jump in and swim!' The guy jumps in - and breaks his hands. Then he calls the second guy and says. Jump in and swim!' The second guy also jumps, and breaks his leg. Then the doctor calls the third guy and says, 'Jump in and swim!' The third guy says, "No, I will not jump! Don't try to trick me!'
The doctor is very happy. Yes, now this fellow can be discharged!
He says, 'You can go back home! You are not mad anymore. You are cured! Come to the office and finish the paperwork, and then you can leave.'
So the guy goes to the office, finishes the paperwork and signs the exit form.
When he is on his way out, the doctor casually asks, 'May I know why you did not jump in the pool? Forgive my asking, it is just my curiosity.' The guy says. 'What do you mean? How can you ask me to jump in the pool when I don't know how to swim!
Right decision taken for wrong reason! Remember even if you are taking the right decision for the wrong reason. you are in danger!
