When you drink, you sure can be an asshole

One drunk guy tells the other at a bar:
"You can jump off this 4th story building and nothing will happen to you. There is a draft that will put you right back in the 4th level."
"I don't believe you."
"I'll show you."
They go up the building, and the first guy jumps down, and just before he hits the floor, he comes up again and lands precisely where he started."
"Wow man! You were right!"
"Do you want to try it?"
"Of course." He says as he jumps off, falls and hits the floor really hard.
Then the bartender comes up and tells the first guy:
"Superman, when you drink, you sure can be an asshole."
That was a true story. Or sort of. Check this news article:
They said the man - who apparently had drunk several bottles of red wine before attempting the jump - appeared at the window ledge at around 4 a.m. and shouted: "I am Superman! Nothing can happen to me!"
