John gets the coconut.

Andoche Junot, Duke of Abrantes

Threw himself out of his father's chateau at Montbard to prove he could fly.
Nicknamed "The Tempest" as he once led a charge of 300 horse against Ten thousand Turks ( spin doctors have been around for a lonnnnnnnnng time ;-) )

PS Scott don't be too literal :wink:
