The curiosity of the passenger

The passenger was excited by the fact that his seat mate had his right arm in a sling, and the following dialogue occurred:

“You broke your arm, didn’t you?”

“Well, yes, I did.”

“Had an accident, I suppose?”

“Not exactly. I did it in trying to pat myself on the back.”
