Staying Dry
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
Two cars suddenly made an abrupt stop at the park's gate. Seven men got out of the two cars and were making their way along the foot path when it began to rain. Six of the seven men began to walk faster to escape the rain. The seventh man didn't even bother, yet he was not touched by one drop of water. No raincoats or umbrellas were used. Since all of the men arrived at their destination together how did the one man stay dry?
Answer
The park was a cemetery. The six men were the pall bearers for the seventh man. He didn't get wet, as he was being carried in his coffin.Hide Answer Show Answer
