The Pearly Gates
St Peter was having a bit of an off day checking everyone into Heaven. So he decided tothat only people who had a particularly unusual death would be allowed in.
Well in due course three men arrive. An angel ushers them into a waiting room from where St Peter called them in turn.
He asked the first man how he had died. The young man replied that he had gone off to work that morning as usual, but in his haste had forgotten something. He had returned back to his unit where upon he had found his wife acting suspiciously. He had thought for some time that she was fooling around on him and he was now convinced. Looking around the unit, and sure enough out on the balcony he could see that someone was dangling from hand rail. Furious the man raced over and hit kicked and prised the offenders fingers off the rail where he fell to the ground. Unfortunately the fall hadn't killed the adulterer, so the husband returned to the kitchen and in a fit of super human strength, picked up the fridge and hurled it over the rail. The strain had caused a blood vessel in his neck to burst, killing him.
St Peter reckoned that, even that would satisfy the requirements for entry which he had set down, and ushered the man into the fitting room to pick up his wings, harp halo etc.
The second man was asked to front up to St Peter, where he explained, that being a fit young individual, he worked out every morning on the balcony of his appartment block, for some reason the handrail gave way and he fell. Luckily he managed to grab a hold of the rail from the unit below. Whilst regaining his composure some mad man raced in and ripped his grip from the railing and he had fallen to the ground below. Once again he got lucky and fell on a relatively soft patch of ground, but while struggling to his feet the mad man had thrown a fridge over the rail killing him.
Again St Peter thought that this was reasonable grounds for entry, and sent him to collect his new belongings.
The last man was asked to front St Peter and give an account of his daeth.
He started out "Picture this, I'm hiding naked in a fridge......."Boring signature time again!
