The Devil, bored, makes them an offer: "I will strike you 3 times with my whip, and if you survive, I'll let you go. You can use anything you want as a shield."
The American goes first. He builds a high-tech shield from depleted uranium and composites, and hides behind it. The Devil strikes once - the shield cracks; twice - the shield falls apart; thrice - the American is no more.
Next goes the Indian. He puts himself in some sort of advanced Yoga position and goes into deep meditation. The Devil strikes once - nothing; twice - the Indian shivers a bit; thrice - the Indian grunts, but lives. The Devil is amazed and tells him he's free to go.
The Indian asks "May I stay and watch? In all these jokes the Russians somehow come out on top. I want to see how he will do it this time." The Devil nods and turns to the Russian: "So, what will you use as a shield?"
The Russian: "The Indian, of course."
American pig, Indian, and glorious Russian hero sent to hell despite do nothing wrong. Bored devil (probably other American) say "I whip you three time. If survive, you go away, yes? You are allow shield use."
The American capitalist, he say he go first. Make big shield, think big is better. Devil hit one time, and shield is crack. Devil hit two time, shield is kill. Devil hit three time, and American, he dissapear. Great success.
Indian say go next. He make look like pretzel. I say he is just sleep. Devil hit one time, no effect. Devil hit two time, no effect again. Three time and Indian wake up nap. Devil is surprise and say "Indian go away".
Indian is remain to ask watch to see glorious Russian hero come out top, like always in the history. The devil, he has nod and ask glorious Russian hero what he use for shield.
Glorious Russian hero, eminent intellect in brain, say "Indian, of course."
Such is life in Moscow.
