This is a simple math problem. Fill the 3 gallon bucket and pour it into the 5 gallon bucket. Fill the 3 gallon bucket again, and pour it into the 5 gallon, only 2 gallons will go into the 5 gallon which already has 3 gallons. So no you're left with 1 gallon in the 3 gallon bucket. Empty the 5 gallon bucket and pour your 1 gallon into the 5 gallon bucket. Then fill your 3 gallon bucket again and pour it into the 5 gallon. You now have 4 gallons in the 5 gallon bucket. |

ONLY being the keyword. There is no mention of a plane and therefore that CAN NOT be part of the solution. |

Using ONLY what's said, I deduced such. The mind initially sees a "cabin" in the logcabin sort of sense, but he didn't say "logcabin" he said "cabin" which could easily mean both. Thus my answer is correct. :) |
Tala has to be right .... its an airplane cabin right?
Redshoe, not necessarily .. the USPS can and will deliver without a zip code if there is a name/title and place to deliver |

True, however... uhm... But he said.... well... Ok, but wait... The 3 people are... ok, but I fly coach... the cabin would have been crushed... no, the people would have died... no, the woods are..... hey look it's snowing outside. |
how about an easy one
A cab driver is going up a one way hill, which you can only go down. A policeman is sitting in his car and can see the cabdriver, so why doesn't he get out and arrest him? |

Thank you. Explained that well. I used the word "only" to keep people off of "they froze to death" or "avalance"....maybe it would have been better if I said 'the answer is provided within the riddle' |
Quote:
No.. it's because he's walking? Are they all dead? |
Quote:
lol correct, the cab driver is walking :D this thread was a great idea, it'll have crazy page view numbers if there are many of us riddle freaks out there |

Here's another - A man has hung himself in his basement. The basement is completely empty, and there is only some water on the ground. The noose is hung from a rafter. How did the man hang himself? |

in most of the case the one answering know the answer already LOL.... ex: the umbrella one...nobody could figure it out in like 2 minutes and have the exact answer.....(I knew that one already so I decided not to reply)... |
[QUOTE=SilverTab]in most of the case the one answering know the answer already LOL....
no....never heard that one. Really, I'm just be like that intelligent... |
Either way, here's my last one:
A car is parked on the side of the road. All the doors are locked, all of the windows are intact and rolled up. There is NO damage to the car whatsoever. Inside the car is a man and a woman, they are both dead from bullet wounds. There is no gun in the car, nor any shell casings. How did the couple get shot? IF YOU HAVE HEARD THIS B4, DO NOT POST THE ANSWER! Let others figure it out! |
it doesn't say that the bullet wounds were inflicted WHILE they were in the car....so they could be like Bonnie & Clyde or something?
|
try out this one...it's like a riddle..but..in images...
http://www.etienne.nu/imagepuz/ the secret code to start it is "hornet" I finished it up to level 15... |
On the "two bucket" issue, a 3gal and a 5 gal, right? Fill both half full! That makes 1.5 and 2.5 gals. 1.5+2.5=4.

A father and son are driving along in a car and get into an accident. The father dies at the scene and the son is rushed to the hospital. When he gets to the hospital, an old surgeon says, "I can't operate on him, he's my son!"
How can that be, if his father was just killed? |

...or that the couple was found in the trunk |
