Pts To Draquish, who from this moment on will lose all his pts if he gets a riddle wrong! :D J/K

Riddle # 71
Difficulty: Easy

Code: Select all

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. 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?

soot-smeared = there was a fire in the office.
That's why he jumped, and he only jumped to a platform which the firemen had set up? :?

The guy was one of those cleaning dudes(Don't know their names, those people that clean really high up) and he Jumped INSIDE the building, even though that probably isn't it, since you cant open office windows from outside :P(can you :? )


The guy was one of those climber peoples(the spiderman wannabes :P) and he was climbing, and he jumped in :P


The guy was climbing, saw a plane, and jumped in :P(Not likely :roll: )

The guy was one of those building dudes(Don't remember them either xD, the YMCA guy...yellow hat :P), they had just put a window up, and he jumps through it :roll:

Draquish, a magnifying glass is not the kind you put your beer in.

But you are right that the angle is still 14.5 degrees. You just got to the right answer from the wrong direction.

Yeah wtv, its still an angle, I don't see why it would make such a difference looking at it through the glass or not...it would be the same -.-lll

The riddle was meant to trick those who didn't think too far into it, when you look at something through a magnifying glass, it magnifies it, but the trick is, angles are the same no matter how much you magnify them.
Points to Draq, your answers can be extremely confusing at times xD
