Situation
Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.Situation
One day a son walked up to his father and pointed to his stomach. "What is this?" His father replied, "It is your belly button. Everyone gets this after being born." Curious, the boy asked, "Do you have one?" The father replied no. How could this be?
Answer
The father was Adam. The belly button was used to feed the baby in the prenatal stage. If Adam was the first man he would have not been born and not needed a belly button.Hide Answer Show Answer
