Question:

Why do people yell "Geronimo" before jumping off something?


 
ANSWER:
Geronimo was an Apache leader who evaded the US Army for five years and was the last renegade indian band to surrender in the US Indian Wars. Legend has it that he was being pursued and became trapped. His only escape was to jump off a cliff into a river below. On horseback, he took this route. As he went off the edge of the cliff, he yelled his name, "Geronimo."
