Some more riddles

Post by viroscan » Thu Jan 04, 2007 6:58 am

They're pretty easy if you pay attention

1---This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching! :smt003  

2---Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter? :smt003

3---A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms: The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?:smt003

4---A magician was boasting one day at how long he could hold his breath under water. His record was 6 minutes. A kid that was listening said, "that's nothing, I can stay under water for 10 minutes using no type of equipment or air pockets!" The magician told the kid if he could do that, he'd give him $10,000. The kid did it and won the money. Can you figure out how?:smt003

4. He put a glass of water on his head.(Googled it :D)

First thoughts, probably not accurate.

1 - It is annoying.

2 - Mary

3 - The room full of assassins.  He pays off the assassins to kill the lions.  And then lets the fire kill the assassins so he doesn't have to pay.

4  - He crawled under the bathtub (one of those old fashioned kind that has legs on it and you can crawl under).
