A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane.
Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble. In spite of the best efforts of the pilot the plane started to go down. Finally the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the passengers that they had better jump, and bailed out. Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining.
The doctor grabbed one and said, "I'm a doctor, I save lives, so I must live" and jumped out.
The lawyer then said, "I am the smartest man in the world, I deserve to live!" He grabbed a parachute and jumped.
The priest looked at the little boy and said, "My son, I've lived a long and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live in peace."
The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said, "Not to worry, Father. The smartest man in the world just took off with my backpack."

Nono, it says, the lawyer grabbed a ,"parachute".. Being the smartest man on earth, he grabbed the parachute which weighed as much as a parachute which a child couldn't carry on his/her own. So, the priest put a parachute on the kid and told him when to pull the string. The kid got the last chute, unless, the lawyer was also the doctor or the pilot was also the Dr.

I understand it!! Parachutes are packed in things that are similar looking to backpacks... so the lawyer, in his rush to get out of the airplane with a parachute, obviously didn't look very close at what he grabbed, and grabbed the little boy's backpack instead of the parachute pack. That was how the priest got to have the little boy's parachute, because there was one left.
