Kudos to the kid that was sitting in front of me on the airplane to my vacation destination.
He was about five, maybe six.
His observations and commentary were a running amusement for the 2+ hour flight.
Samples:
His initial excited comments (to his father) upon being seated went something like:
boy: I love airplanes. If you got an airplane would you take me for a ride in it?
dad: of course
boy: But, if you had an airplane, where would you park it? I guess you could park it in the driveway.
Soon,we were told of a 45 minute weather related delay.
Boy: "We're all gonna die!!!"
Boy stands up and points to the ceiling
boy: "What's up there?"
Dad: "oxygen masks"
boy: "What is an oks ah gen mask for?"
dad: "In case there's an emergency and the plane loses air, the oxygen masks allow us to breathe"
boy: (choking and gasping, eyes bulging, cheeks puffed out) I. can't. breatheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"
(boy collapses back in his seat, eyes closed)
(eyes pop open) "I'm only kidding. Of course I can breathe. Because that's my superpower. I can breathe through anything."
