Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) No. His jugular was sliced open. How could that be? Edited November 11, 2005 by Fat no Jutsu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Who cares, thats not what the question asks. It asks how he dies, therefore the reason of die is either Drowning or a Slit throat, whoopie I win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Bah. If you were pushed down a flight of stairs, what would you fall against? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 How much force(in newtons) was applied when you the person was pushed, how far up are you from the ground when first pushed. I also need a drawing(to scale). Then I'll answer your question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 You don't need that much. It's a logical riddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 You would fall against the air, then proceed to accelerate to the stair's and then probably roll the rest of the way to the ground. Or you could fall against a railing, thats why they're there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dowhatnow Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Jake's right, but eventually, you'd hit a wall. Assuming that it's somewhat of a "square spiral" set of stairs. And of course if your body was pushed with enough force to get you to a wall. But you'd fall against the air and promptly crack your back or your head on the stairs or the floor. That's if you were pushed straight backwards. If it (the force applied to your body) was at an angle, then you'd hit the railing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 MY answer was, "against your will." But you're right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cho Hakkai Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 That was a crappy riddle no offence. I can come up with something better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kouta Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I have one! It was the major league world series. The score was 5-8 with the 5 team at bat. There were two outs, and the man at bat had 2 strikes and 1 ball against him. The bases, however, were loaded. A grand slam could win them the game. With all the wives and fans cheering in the stands, the pitch throws the ball, a perfect strike if it is not hit. The bat connects with the ball, smashing it out of the park for a grand slam! The team scores the runs and the team wins the game with a score of 9-8...but! Not a single man crossed home plate...how could that be? NOTES & HINTS: -All of the players were male. -All of them DID cross home plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Skittlez Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Simple. If you hit a homerun or grandslam, it isn't neccisary to cross the home plate, because the ball was out of the field. Would you have a group of people run and jump over a fence to get a ball, if, regardless of how fast they got it, the other team still scored? In other words... Regardless of if the other team got the ball again, the hitting team would have already scored that bout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Back to me. @Hakkai: That's why they're riddles and not science problems. Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cho Hakkai Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 (edited) language. Idiot... This puzzle has circulated widely on the Internet for some years, but usually in an abbreviated form such as "Name three common English words ending in 'gry'", which has no good third answer.

Guest Tengu Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 (edited) I have one... A husband and wife is out for a road trip out of town. As they were driving, their car runs out of gas. A gas station wasn't around for miles, but the husband decides to try to walk to the nearest gas station to get gas anyways, but if he didn't they'ed be stranded. He tells his wife to stay and look after the car and keep the doors locked. When he returns he finds that his wife is dead and theres a stranger in the car. The car doors are still locked. What happened? (Note: There are no broken windows or anything.) Edited November 13, 2005 by Tengu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kouta Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 (edited) Ok, first off, no, you're wrong on my riddle. The NOTES section told you they did in fact cross home plate...yet not a single man crossed home plate. Its gots nothing to do with score... But yes, if they never cross home plate, they are still able to be tagged by someone who returns with the ball...you think way too much into this...and looking at the wrong angle too. ----- Now for riddle. I think that the man came and said he was from gas station to fix car, and would need to come in for some reason, so she let him in, after which he killed her. OR She thought the guy was the husband from afar, so she unlockd the door, which he entered and killed her.

Guest Tengu Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Nope. Theres a stranger inside the car at the end and the doors are still locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 (edited) There is a man lying in a puddle of water, dead. His jugular was sliced open, but no weapons were found. How did he die? He was killed by an icicle. Sure, it would have to be one hell of a sharp icicle, but it would make the perfect murder weapon since it would melt in the sun. It was the major league world series. The score was 5-8 with the 5 team at bat. There were two outs, and the man at bat had 2 strikes and 1 ball against him. The bases, however, were loaded. A grand slam could win them the game.

The team scores the runs and the team wins the game with a score of 9-8...but! Not a single man crossed home plate...how could that be?NOTES & HINTS: -All of the players were male. -All of them DID cross home plate This might be a real stupid answer but; all the players that crossed home plate were married, thus they would no longer be 'single men'.

Guest Tatsumaki Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I have one...A husband and wife is out for a road trip out of town. As they were driving, their car runs out of gas. A gas station wasn't around for miles, but the husband decides to try to walk to the nearest gas station to get gas anyways, but if he didn't they'ed be stranded. He tells his wife to stay and look after the car and keep the doors locked. When he returns he finds that his wife is dead and theres a stranger in the car. The car doors are still locked. What happened? (Note: There are no broken windows or anything.) Oh! Oh! I know what happened!! The straner was drunk the night before when the couple came back from shopping and while the last of the groceries were being put in the house he hopped in the trunk and accidently shut the lid on himself, locking him inside the trunk. Well, they go on their trip and the guy finally gets off his beer buzz and figures out where he was and how to get out. That's when he opens the latch that leads to the back seat and the wife sees him. She yells "Bloody murder!!" And tries to defend herself while he's just trying to find out how the heck he ended up in the back of their car. Long story short, she grabs a pen from the floor of the car and tries to stab him when he over powers her and she stabs herself. (I know that's far from being right, but it's still fun to guess! ^ ^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kouta Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 (edited) Yep! Every baseball player was married...so no SINGLE man crossed home plate..thats the answer! Also, guy was in car before doors were locked...so bam! Edited November 13, 2005 by Kouta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tengu Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Nope haha. Noone else could have been in a car before because the husband and wife would have known. (Unless the guy was a ninja.) Hint: Think of the importance of them being husband and wife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
