One day 3 guys were exploring the edge of a waterfall from one side. They were walking along and then one of them finds a dirty bottle. He rubs it and out pops a Genie! The Genie then says, "You may each jump off this waterfall cliff, name any object, and you will land in it!" So the first guy runs off and says "Money!" and he lands in a huge pile of money.
