Riddles! Post them here.

1.
More powerful than God,
More evil than the devil,
The poor has it, but the rich does not.
And if you eat it, you'll die.

2. A rooster is on top of the roof, then it lays an egg. Where is the egg?

3. What's in between heaven and earth?

4. 10 people are swimming, all but 1 drowned. How many survived?


I know, they're easy.

EDIT : OKAY, I apologize if the previous riddles were easy. Here's a tough and it does have a logic in it. No circumstancial answers.


There are two doors, one for hell, one for heaven.
There are two guards, one always lie, the other always tell the truth.
You don't know which guard is guarding which door.

You want to go to heaven (or hell if you want)

Now, how would you know which door is for heaven. You're only allowed to ask ONE question to either of the two guards.

If this is not clear, ask me.

agrees with his answers.

btw #1 was given to hardvard students, and 90% of them got it wrong. it was a case of "thinking too hard" as psychologist say. (this was during hardvards prime yrs)

If 10 people are swimming, then they are all survivors, correct? They probally started out with 11.
Its an odd riddle

I take that as a joke. hahahaha. And if you're degrading me, stop that, or else I'll cook you and feed you to some dog. ^_^

If you find them easy, go post harder ones. I just came up with those riddles on top of my head.

I think you might be looking to deep into it. I say "1". If maybe the sentence was phrased differently, I'd question there being 11 originally.


And if you eat "nothing" (not an object) yes you will die. It makes no sense if you considering it an object, as to being able to eat or not eat it.....

Well guess its time for some more riddles to be posted. Yes, they are easy, its too easy having them written and having all the time to look at them properly then when they being told.


Riddle:
A Boeing 747 crashes in the borders of both France and Italy. Due to accident, where would you bury the survivors? Italy or France?

Yeah, they use this kind of questions to kids too. Most of the time, they get it right. But if you ask the adults, they'll stretch their mind and come up with some weird answers.

This just proves that kids are sometimes smarter than their parents. ^_^
