The Cool People's Riddle Thread

Recommended Posts

Who ever solves my riddles gets to be on my cool peoples list.

First riddle: A man jumped 150 feet entirely of his own power. He landed safely. How did he do it?

Note: He wasn't a ninja.

Since this is the first one i'll give you a hint.

Hint: He didn't use an extra source of power but he did use special equipment.

You can ask me yes or no questions if you need to.

couldn't he just jump many, many, many times?...maybe he'd have an energy drink to keep him active, but 150 feet isn't that far to jump.

note: you never stated he jumped that far in one jump

Damn, it said he didn't use an external source of power.

Oh wait this is way simple, for some reason it came to me as i was writing the above statement.

He jumped from a plane, the special equipment being the parachute

...next...

Wow nice answer. :blink: I never thought of that, but it works. My answer was ski jump though. So next riddle...its in the form of a poem.

Four men sat down to play.

They played all night till the break of day.

They played for money and not for fun,

With separate scores for everyone.

When they came to square accounts

They all made quite fair amounts.

Can you this paradox explain?

If no one lost, how could all gain?

Hint: Its not talking about what you would think it is. Also think of different meanings of the word score.

Whoa man ^_^ ...thats right. Each player got separate plays. The word score means the "score" for the music. Next riddles (The first one may be too easy so i'll put two.)

1. A master forger forged a US $100 bill. The bill he made were perfect copies of the original in every detail, yet he was caught. How?

2. A man making $10 million a year drives a small car, lives in a madest house, and insist he can't afford luxuries. Why not?

1. Wrong. Why would he sign the bill? Haha.

2. Well he said he can't "afford" luxuries so thats wrong, too.

Can i post a riddle on one has answered it to date it is a good one!!

Sure! Just after someone correctly answers mine because it might get confusing.

1} He was caught because they were perfect copies, therefore they would have the same serial number.

2) Perhaps the man is making 10 mil off interest from a CD, in which case he couldnt spend any of it until the time on the cd has expired.

Both seem like they may not be the right answers, but i tried.

1. I guess it could kind of be right, but people dont usually look at the serial #. Theres a simpler answer.

2. Nope

Wow Sharinkugan, right again. :closedeyes:

I'll just give the answer for one so sasukepwns could give his/her riddle. :P

He copied a forged bill which itself contained a flaw.

O_O I would have never thought of that!

Ok here is my riddle,

There is a man lying next to a rock in the forest, he is dead, there are no visible injuries and he didn't not die of anything internally, so no heart attack or something like that, now who is he and how did he die?

He's a hermit. The rock is the thing he hugs at night. One day, he died in his sleep. A tourist tried to take his "wallet" under the rock, but got caught by the cops.
