A man bet his neighbour $1000 dollars that one of his dogs, Bunny, could jump higher than a house. Thinking this not possible, the neighbour took the bet and lost. How come?

A doll house.

A doll house.

No, neither any similair miniature.

Got it, I think.

Highlight below this text.

A house can't jump.

Very good tiassa A bonus?

You stand at the corner and see a funeral procession passing by.
Then they stop for a moment. Empathy overwhelms you and you offer your condolences to the man nearby. "Were you a relative close to the deceased?" you ask, wishing you hadn't.

After a moment, the man replies, "Brothers and sisters I have none, that man's father is my father's son."

What is the relation of this man to the deceased?

Answer: His son.

A man has to get a fox, a chicken, and a sack of corn across a river. He has a rowboat, and it can only carry him and one other thing. If the fox and the chicken are left together, the fox will eat the chicken. If the chicken and the corn is left together, the chicken will eat the corn. How does the man do it?

Alpha your answer is good. I know the riddle you posted, so I will leave it for somebody who doesn't know it yet.

Kill the chicken, stuff it with corn, kill the fox and skin it. Voila! :D I'm sure that's not the answer you were looking for.

Procop, it was his uncle.

Procop, it was his uncle.

Could be, if the brother of the man is deceased so that the dead may be the son of the deceased brother of the man. Good point!

Kill the chicken, stuff it with corn, kill the fox and skin it. Voila! I'm sure that's not the answer you were looking for.Uh, no. LOL. He needs to get them across the river... intact.
Procop, it was his uncle.That was my first thought.

the answer highlight below:
you first carry across the chicken then come back and carry carry across the fox and take the chicken back, then leave the chicken and take the corn across then go back and take the chicken across :)

Right. Did you figure it out yourself?

i think i got the aswer to procops 1:

the guys brother is dead, and it is his funeral, he has no brothers anymore

yes, i did figure it out myself but ive heard something like it before

You and I are to play a competitive game. We shall take it in turns to call out integers. The first person to call out “50” wins. The rules are as follows:
1. The player who starts must call out an integer from 1 to 10.
2. A new number called out must exceed the most recent number called by at least one and by no more than 10.

Do you want to go first, and if so, what is your strategy?

yes, you want to start by saying an even number, that way if they increase in 1s you will get to the 50
the other one is too long to explain but if anyone wants to play i can put it to the test

No, try again. There is a perfect strategy.

I have a riddle that realy hard so here it gos:

I fisher man goes on vacation for two weeks and leaves his son to do the work. The fisherman is unaware that his son isn't going to do the work. Two weeks later when the fisherman comes back he finds out his son didn't do anything. How did he know and figure it out using the three following clues:

1: the fisherman doesn't keep records so he couldn't look at those to find out

2: No one told him his son didn't do any work

3: It has something to do with the boat.

Some kind of fungi or alch plants grew up at the submerged parts of the boat which would have been swept away if the boat had been sailing?

nope. Here's another clue: I boy didn't use the baot at all, but it was in the spot it gets put when it's done being used. Also it took me two hours to give up and look at the answer in the book I got it from.

OK possibly the sea level was such that the boat was put at a place which wasn't possible to be used (due to the ebb and flad levels) at the time of father's arrival?

The work was to paint the boat. The boat wasn't painted?

None of you are correct. I said this is a hard one and you'll have to think out side the box more.

Was it a motor boat? ...no petrol used? The boat was leaking but no water in? Spider webs all around? Water plants growing so that the boat would disturbed them if moved?

I suppose the riddle is based on logic, but there are riddles based on word play such as " I saw " (saw is a werb) but you can (in such riddle) change it into a noun "a saw" and cut a tree with it...

here's a big hint: It has to do with plants, and nothing to do with water.

um...
maybe he lives on the amazon and no-one had cut thru the vines on the path at all that week

it need to be explained clearer coz i gant tell whether the fisherman took the boat awy on a trip or he left his son to do the fishing

He left the boat at the place where thay do fishing so the son could use it, and the place is around the west coast of the USA.

maybe there were plants on the boat and because the boat was not moved during the day or turned, the plants grew in the direction toward the sunlight. Showing that the boat stayed put for a long time :confused: ....?? maybe? no?

That's real close but to exacly the answer to this riddle.

I fisher man goes on vacation for two weeks and leaves his son to do the work. The fisherman is unaware that his son isn't going to do the work. Two weeks later when the fisherman comes back he finds out his son didn't do anything. How did he know and figure it out using the three following clues:

2: No one told him his son didn't do any work

3: It has something to do with the boat.

It's really a stupid riddle. There are many solutions to the riddle you initially presented. Another example of a perfectly logically solution is that he tied the boat up using a special knot and it was the same knot when he returned. This solution and many others mentioned above satisfy the riddle. Now you are saying that it has something to do with plants. A good riddle gives you all the information you need to find the only one possible solution.

Don't get huffy, just because you can't solve it

He went on vacation on his houseboat which was moored just outside of where he lives so that he could see what happened every day while he was "away" on his houseboat on vacation.

No that's not eather. The book I got this from hade alot of riddles as hard as this one, but most where just plane stupid.

A man has to get a fox, a chicken, and a sack of corn across a river. He has a rowboat, and it can only carry him and one other thing. If the fox and the chicken are left together, the fox will eat the chicken. If the chicken and the corn is left together, the chicken will eat the corn. How does the man do it?
Too easy:
1.The Man Takes the Chicken first.
2.Then he takes the fox second.
3.Then he brings back the chicken.
4.Next he takes the sack of corn to the other side of the river.
(So far the fox and the sack of corn are together on the other side of the river, whereas the chicken is still alone in the starting point)
5.Finally the man comes back for the chicken and carries it to the other side of the river.
I am pretty sure I am right.

I know...maybe his son was dead, 'cos he'd spent 2 weeks without food (i.e fish).

No, and here's a clue that's everyone should know by now: Thay allways dock the boat in the grassy shore when it's done being used.

just tell me!! i cant stand not knwing

the boat never moved from where the fisherman left when he went away. Am I Right??

The grass near the boat had grown which would not have happened if his son had dragged the boat across it and into the ocean...?

No. To try to make this easyer I'll give y'all one last hint: It has something to do with the grass.

hmm... part of his job was to mow the lawns? :D

No sence this is taking so long here's the answer:

The boat stayed in the same spot over the grass so no sunlight was able to reach the grass under the boat so when the kids father moved the boat he seen that the grass was a pale green from getting no sun light.

I didn't want to mess up this riddle so I put it in a new post and the riddle will be after the line below

Yup it's Jirachi Wish Maker. I'll edit this post with a link to a web page that gives a detailed discription of the movie and pictures of the movie. The site done the Japanese one but eveythings just the same but the movie is called "Wishing Star Of Seven Nights" and some names could still be in the Japanses form.

I'm not good with computer code so I have no idea for the riddle stated above.
