I didn't forget to add the answer, the one I put is really common so I figured someone had to know it.
Okay here's some I remember someone telling me from camp:

A man lies dead in a room with 53 bicycles, how did he die?

Answer:
They were bicycle playing cards. He was cheating at poker.

There's a scuba diver lying dead in the middle of a burnt up forest. There isn't any bodies of water for miles around yet his cause of death was drowning. How did he get there? (This one's kind of complicated)

Answer:
He was scuba diving when the fire was going on and one of the super scoopers came to get water where he was swimming and accidentally picked him up too. He drowned before they dropped him into the fire. The person who told me this said it's a true story but I'm not sure I believe her.

You know what this reminds me of? Anybody ever play the game MindTrap?

That last one isn't a true story. She saw it on CSI.

csi supposedly uses true stories for some eppisodes. but it still sucks.

and i almost got that one too...
i didnt know he was wearing his scuba gear, so i figured he was passed out in the forest or something and he drown when they were putting out the fire. meh.

Yeah. They don't actually use big scoops. Otherwise they'd end up dumping fish everywhere.

But it is true that there is a scuba diver skeleton in the middle of a burnt forest or a desert somewhere. I don't remember what happened to it... but meh.

You win! It's actually a leg of mutton, but close enough.

i heard this one on "are you afraid of the dark?" back in the day:

you have a barrel. what can you put in it to make it lighter?

a hole

side story: the same guy in the above mentioned post told me a riddle that he'd been trying to figure out for a couple of days. after about 5 minutes i gave him my answer and after arguing with him about it, he calls the friend who told him the riddle only to find out that i was right :lol: it's too bad i can't remember it but if i do i'll post it

The only thing that scared me on 'Goosebumps' was the... intro thingy... well, the part when the dog's eyes glowed. I would always close my eyes only for that 2 second shot.

I've never seen Goosebumps but I read the the first part of the book series by R.L. Stein (which I'm assuming is the same thing). I never found them that scary.

...my riddles are real lame cause i got them from books but hey, who cares?


First think of a person who lives in disguise
Who talks in secrets and tell naught but lies
Now tell me whats always the last thing to mend
The middle of Middle and end of the end
Now tell me the sound that quite often heard
During the search for a hard to find word
Now string them together and answer me this
What creature would you be unwilling to kiss?

Answer:Spider

The man who makes it doesent want it
The man who buys it Doesent need it
The man who uses it doesent know it
What is it?

Answer: coffin
