Catching the Last Ferry

This guy loved living in Staten Island, but he wasn't crazy
about the
ferry. If you missed a ferry late at night, you had to spend
the next hour
or so wandering the deserted streets of lower Manhattan.

So, when he spotted a ferry no more than fifteen feet from
the dock, he
decided he wouldn't subject himself to an hour's wait. He
made a running
leap and landed on his hands and knees, a little bruised
maybe, but safe on
deck.

He got up, brushed himself off, and announced proudly to a
bystander,
"Well, I made that one, didn't I?"

"Sure did," the bystander said. "But you should have waited
a minute or
two. The ferry is just about to dock."
