A river is indeed the correct answer. Was also riddled here before.

Four men were in a boat on the lake. The boat turns over, and all four men sink to the bottom of the lake, yet not a single man got wet! Why?

Because the boat turned over because the lake ran dry? (so all water flew away, probably because the sides of the lake had burst, and the water just ran off, the boat however stayed in place (magically) and just hit the bottom of the lake and turned over.
That, or the lake was dry to begin with.

What 7 letter word becomes longer when the third letter is removed?

I'm guessing this is gonna be a number or something... or perhaps even a variation on 'mile' or something (for instance in the way that a mile is longer than a kilometer... but then with words that actually work )
Pretty hard this one.

River is correct.

Your on a different planet to the answer in regards to the water one

The last one is in my opinion the easiest

Lounger!!

[Mcflury]

Good one on the 'lounger', very well spotted

On the boat:
Okay, here's another one: the boat sank after it turned, but the men were inside the boat. Now, inside the boat there remained an air bubble, too small to keep the boat up, but big enough for the men to stay dry inside.

Or the four men were actually divers and they had this special diving suit thingy?

[frookenhauer]

It was raining and they were already wet

[Cause]

Common people, Im suprised you still don know how riddles work. They lie, they trick. Dont be so literal

[frookenhauer]

all four men got wet?

[Cause]

No, not the answer Im looking for

[Slow Ben]

[frookenhauer]

Sorry if this ones already been here, dont have time to read 27 pages to find out.



We are very little creatures; all of us have different features. One of us in glass is set; one of us you'll find in jet. Another you may see in tin, and a fourth is boxed within. If the fifth you should pursue, it can never fly from you. What are we?

[Giles]

my first thought is vowels?

It works - riddle me up.

[Slow Ben]

Absolutely sir!!

[Giles]

here we go sorry it took a while, i just posted that before i went to sleep


There's a body lying dead on a bed, and on the floor beside it is a pair of scissors. The scissors were instrumental in his death, yet there's no trace of blood. The body reveals no signs of any cuts or bruises. How could the person have been murdered with the pair of scissors?

[Cause]

Cut his medical drip, oxygen supply

[Giles]

hmmm that works, not the one that was given, but il accept it

What was your answer then? I'm intrigued...

[Giles]

i think it was, The person was on a water bed, the scissors were used to cut open the bed and drown him

[Cause]

Only one color, but not one size,
Stuck at the bottom, yet easily flies.
Present in sun, but not in rain,
Doing no harm, and feeling no pain.
What is it.
