In mid-1944, during the V-1 raids on England, a buzz bomb hit a row of flats. After the dust had settled and heads were counted, only grandpa was missing.
The rescue team heard laughter from the rubble and dug out grandpa, uninjured and still chuckling, from the remains of the WC. What was so damn funny, the rescuers demanded.
Grandpa replied: “I pulled the chain and the whole damn house fell down.”
