Here's one my boyfriend's mother told me:

There's a plane about to crash that has four passengers on it: David Beckham, George W. Bush, Pope Benedict XVI, and a little boy, but the plane only has three parachutes.
David Beckham says, "I'm a famous sports star and people love me, so I'm going to take a parachute," and he jumps out of the plane.
George W. Bush then says, "I'm the President of the United States and the smartest man in the world, I'm going to take the second parachute," and he jumps out of the plane.
Pope Benedict XVI turns to the little boy and says, "I'm just an old man, and I've lived my life. You're still young and deserve to live, you should take the last parachute."
The little boy shakes his head and says, "Pope, neither of us needs to die. The smartest man in the world just took my backpack."
