I've decided to open a thread for telling each other jokes, after a bit of search presented me with none with such a topic.
I'll go first, though my humor has often been called stupid, unfunny and other unflattering things.

In a free-falling aeroplane, there weren't enough parachutes, so three men -a German one, an Englishman and a Greek one- were falling to their doom inside the plane. Suddenly, though, Death -the Grim Reaper himself- appeared, skeletal appearance, scythe and all. The plane immediately paused in midair.
Death made the three guys an offer, apparently feeling generous:
If they could hide an object of their choosing so well that he wouldn't be able to find it within an hour, he would spare their lives, though they had to try separately. Whoever failed, though, would be reaped immediately.
The German guy went first; he threw something into the sea. Five minutes later, the Reaper announced that he had found the mp3 player the man had thrown. Death swung his Scythe, and the German man died.
The Englishman made his attempt after that: while the Reaper blocked out its own senses, the Englishman hid his pocket watch under his seat. After ten minutes, the Reaper returned from his search at the sea and searched the guy's seat, commending him on a good attempt. Still, Death swung his Scythe, and the Englishman died.
The Greek guy knew that Death had supernatural intuition from the others' attempts, so he decided to also cheat. He threw something into the sea, then Death opened his senses and went down to the sea.
Two hours later, Death returned from his search and asked the Greek guy: 'you've already won, but tell me, just what was it that you threw?'
