Peter and Mary are found lying dead on the floor of an apartment. There pieces of broken glass nearby.

The only witness is a cat. They were not poisoned and there were no marks on their bodies.

How did they die?

The cat pushed the glass down from a table, which scared and gave them both a heart attack!

Correct

bracer · 08-21-17, 05:57 AM

Haha!
No, I actually guessed this one.
But I read plenty of similar situational riddles.

Four boats are travelling exactly the same direction, the same speed and with exactly the same distance between each and every one of them.

How?

vienna · 08-22-17, 01:40 PM

They're being towed together...

<O>

bracer · 08-22-17, 02:40 PM

Not sure how you are thinking, but the distance between boat A and B, would not be the same as between boat A and C then, if they are on top of eachother.

Jimbuna · 08-22-17, 02:43 PM

A fairground ride.

No, one of the boats is a tanker and another one is a sailboat. They are in the ocean.

How?

Lets work this one out. How would three boats travel keep to the same distance between all three of them?

Rockstar · 08-24-17, 05:43 PM

They proceed in the same direction, at the same speed, and in order to maintain an equal distance between all three they must travel in a equilateral triangle formation.

Are they all in the water under power?
