A man lives on a 10th floor of some building. Every morning he takes the elevator to the ground floor to go shopping for groceries.

When he comes back, he takes the elevator to the 7th floor and continues by stairs to reach his apartment on the 10th floor.

Why?


Part of exercise?

At the beginning of WW1, British soldiers wore brown cloth caps.

But many soldiers were suffering from head injuries.

The officials were worried about that so they issued an order to make helmets for their soldiers.


However, the number of soldiers with head injuries increased after the change was made.

Why do you think that happened?
they injured themselves intentionally.. lol

The elevator man is a dwarf. He couldn’t reach anything above the button for the seventh floor.

Five men are going through the street.

It starts raining.
Four of them start moving faster.
The fifth man makes no effort to run from rain, however, he stays dry.
The other four get wet anyway.
All of them arrive at their destination together.
How could this be possible?
Four of the men were undertakers, and the fifth man was in the coffin.

You remove the corn husk ( outside ) and cook it, than you eat the corn ( inside) and throw away the cob ( inside ) left over.

Sane thing applies to Mango, Pear and some Avocados

9. Three guests check into a hotel room.

The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10.

Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25.

To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests.

On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally.

As the guests didn't know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep$2 for himself.

Each guest got $1 back: so now each guest only paid$9; bringing the total paid to $27.

The bellhop has $2.

And $27 + $2= $29 so, if the guests originally handed over $30,

what happened to the remaining $1?

wrong calculation

Why do you think that happened?
When soldiers wore the cloth caps there were no injuries from headshots, only dead soldiets. But after the helmets were introduced there were more injuries and fewer deaths.

The four men are undertakers? The fifth man is a dead man inside a casket being carried by the four undertakers.

wrong. The total should be 28 instead of 27. Check it well. 25+3 is 28
