-Mods move to "Games" if you want, I don't care.

 

Simply post some riddles you have and see if another member can answer them correctly!

 

My riddles:

 

1. A farmer has 3 things to take over a river in a small boat. He has a chicken, some grain, and a fox. He can only take one of these at a time, but if he takes the fox over first and leaves the chicken and the grain, the chicken will eat the grain. If he leaves the chicken with the fox, the fox will eat the chicken. How does he get across the river with all 3 and nothing eaten?

 

2. What ways more? A ton of feathers or a ton of cookies? Why?

[Luna Lovegood]

1. Chicken first. Then he brings the fox over and the chiken back. Then he brings the grain over. The the chiken. Easy.

 

2. Neither, they both weigh a ton

[Guest Tiger]

1. Correct.

 

2. Correct.

 

Anyone else got some riddles?

Brad stared through the dirty soot-smeared window on the 22nd floor of the office tower. Overcome with depression he slid the window open and jumped through it. It was a sheer drop outside the building to the ground. Miraculously after he landed he was completely unhurt. Since there was nothing to cushion his fall or slow his descent, how could he have survived the fall?

here is one

Times are hard in a small rural town, business is slowing and people are moving out. It so happens that there are two horse-dealerships in town. Unfortunately there's only enough people to support one of the dealerships. So the two owners meet and decide that one of them must leave town. Since neither of them want to leave they devise a competition to see who gets to stay. It is decided that they will race their horses across town. Now they don't want to damage their horses, so they change the race rule so that whoever's horse crosses the finish post LAST wins the race and gets to stay in town. So the next day they set off. Both are ambling along, taking rests and getting nowhere nearer to finishing. After a few hours a wise old man tells them to dismount and gives them some advice. After which the two sprint back to the horses, get on and gallop towards the finish line. Assuming that the race rules were not changed - what advice did the old man give them ?
