The Poisoned Pilot
On a flight from Baltimore to LA the pilot and copilot we're given their food. They both finish their food at the same time. A few minutes after eating the pilot felt ill, vomited, and fell unconscious. The copilot was completely fine. After landing paramedics told the copilot there was poison in the pilot's food. Video surveillance showed a passenger sneaking into the back of the plane and putting poison on the pilot's food. How was the copilot completely fine?
Answer: The passenger thought the pilot and copilot would eat the same meal, so the passenger only poisoned the pilot's meal. On airplanes the pilot and copilot are given different meals. That way if the pilot's food is bad, the copilot can take over and vice versa.
