Demetris Christofias was out walking one morning along the pier in Larnaca when, being the clumsy person that he is, he stumbled, tripped over the railing and landed in the sea.
Before his bodyguards could get to him, 3 kids who were fishing pulled him out of the water. He was so grateful he offered the kids whatever gift they wanted.
The first kid said, 'I want to go to Disney World' and Christofias said, 'No problem, I'll take you there on the private jet I hire.'
The second kid said, 'I want a new football kit'. Christofias said, 'I'll get it for you and I'll even have the Omonia players sign the shirt.'
The third kid said, ' I want a motorized wheelchair with a built in TV and stereo headset.'
Christofias was a little puzzled by this, but then smiled and said, 'I get it. You want this for a friend of yours who is handicapped, that is very honourable of you'.
The kid said, 'No. It is me that will be needing the chair from tonight after my dad finds out I saved your ass.'
