3 Men Are Captured By Savages...

3 men are traveling across the ocean on a cruise when their boat hits a large rock and sinks. Everyone on the boat dies except these 3 men who miraculously manage to swim a mile to a nearby forested island. The lucky survivors soon pass out on the beach from exhaustion. When they wake up, to their horror, they discover they have been taken prisoner by a native tribe and sentenced to death for trespassing on their territory. The chieftain feeling merciful, offers to grant each of the mens' last requests provided it was within their power.

After a long time spent thinking, the first man wishes to taste the finest wine on the island. As the natives prepare their best drink, the chief approaches the first man and lightly pulls his skin exclaiming "Ah, your skin will make for a great canoe!". The wine is soon completed. After finishing his drink, the natives quickly cut him open and use his skin to waterproof a canoe.

The Chief then approaches the second man and asks him for his last request. After yet another long time spent thinking, he comes to terms with his fate and wishes for a swift death. Before commencing with his wish, the Chief inspects the prisoner and also exclaims: "Ah! You too will make for a fine canoe!". The second man is quickly killed and cut open for yet another canoe.

The third man after witnessing the murders of his 2 companions spends much longer than the first 2 in considering his final wish. The Chief returns at the end of the day saying his time is up and he must decide or they would kill him immediately.

After a moment more of consideration he states "I want a fork."

The chief was baffled but ordered his men to grant the man his wish anyways. The natives soon returned with the man's requested fork and then left to sharpen their knives. As the Chief returns to the man's cell he finds his guards attempting to restrain the prisoner who is now repeatedly stabbing himself with the fork and screaming:

"Nobody's making a canoe out of me!".

Sorry if I'm not so good at formatting. I heard this joke a long time ago from my dad so I had to improvise some details I don't remember.
