A man travelling on a train asked the ticket collector what
time the train stops at Victoria.

"This train doesn't stop at Victoria, its the express."

"You're joking! I need to get off at Victoria."

"Sorry sir, this train will not stop at Victoria."

"There must be something you can do."

"Well there is one thing."

"What, anything. I need to get off."

"Well, I'll get the driver to slow down and I'll dangle you
out the door and lower you onto the platform."

"My god, will that work?"

"Its worth a try."

The train approaches the platform at 50 mph. The ticket
collector hangs the man in mid-air out the door. The man
starts running! The man is running in mid air. "Run
faster! Run faster!"

The ticket collector lowers the man down. The mans feet
touch the platform! Smoke flies off his shoes and his heel
comes off. The man is running for his life!

The ticket collector lets go. The man is running at 30mph!
He's made it, he begins to slow down. He's still running at
20mph alongside the train as the other passengers watch
in amazement.

As the last carriage goes by a hand grabs the man by the
shirt collar and lifts him back onto the train. As he's being
pulled into the carriage he hears a voice say. "You're lucky
I was here to help. This train doesn't even stop at Victoria!"
