I originally heard this as an "Irish joke" but....
Plane is coming in to land & the pilots notice the runway is exceptionally short. They lower their speed to near-stall speed. Full flaps.
The main gear hits the pavement, the spoilers shoot up & the engines scream in auto reverse.
The pilot is standing on the brakes, the wheels are smoking & screeching.
They can see the end of the runway fast approaching, they're not gonna make it!
But then they come to a stop, with the nose gear just tipping off the edge of the bitumen onto the soft grass.
They can hear the applause in the cabin. They did it. Engines shut down.
The pilot sits back in his seat, wipes the sweat running down his face, & says to the first officer, "Paddy, that was the shortest runway I have ever landed on!"
Paddy looks out his side window, & then looks out the side window on the left side of the cockpit, and replies, "Yeah, but look how WIDE it is!"
