Two convicts are locked in a cell. There is an unbarred window high up in the cell. No matter if they stand on the bed or one on top of the other they can't reach the window to escape. They then decide to tunnel out. However, they give up with the tunneling because it will take too long. Finally one of the convicts figures out how to escape from the cell. What is his plan? Rather huge riddle in the amount of answers I might get, looking for one ; )

if there is a window in the same wall, youd only be tunnelling a few feet, as the wall wont be very thick

Well they saw the bed. So they took the saw and cut the bed in half. Two halves make a whole. So they climbed out the hole in the wall. Once outside, they kept shouting till their voice became horse. They jumped on the horse and away they went.

i think the gathering of the dirt from the tunnel is FTW.

reverse thinking. baby wouldn't stay in the crib, baby sitter studied inside it. strawberry jam would'nt open, mom twist it tighter a bit, then twist it open immediately.

well, when the prison guard comes to bring them food and stuff they beat the crap out of the guard and ESCAPED THE CELL, didn't say they have to escape the prison :roll:

i think the right answer is the one with using the dirt from digging the tunnel.

i play silk road · Post by **i play silk road** » Tue Feb 20, 2007 11:19 am

prison guard passes foood through a little flap in the door, so they couldnt have beaten him up

They sit out their time and get released for good behavior!

if they tunnel out of the cell, they might not be free yet, but they will still be put of the cell lol.

A man was just doing his job when his suit was torn. Why did he die three minutes later?

Sin · Post by **Sin** » Tue Feb 20, 2007 11:44 pm

He was an astronaut in space.

Bakemaster · Post by **Bakemaster** » Wed Feb 21, 2007 2:56 am

He wouldn't live for three minutes in space, says I - he was some kind of deep sea diver or a hazmat team member in a radioactive/biocontaminated area.

scuba diver
