Alpo Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 You are jumping to the ground from the second floor balcony. Beneath you is an automobile and a concrete driveway. Would you stand less chance of hurting yourself if you jumped on the car? NCIS episode I'm watching for the first time, and the guy looked at Gibbs' car and then jumped onto the concrete driveway. Then was slowly making his getaway while limping. Just seemed to me that if he jumped on the car he would have only fallen 6 ft instead of 10? Why would he care if he puts a dent in somebody else's roof? Which would you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Sandor, SASS #74075 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 You DON'T put a dent in Gibbs' car - the hurt put on you by Gibbs afterwards would be worse than the concrete. CS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Gibbs would not care about the vehicle, but ,oh, The paperwork for getting it fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
