  He stood on a block of ice, tied the noose around his neck, waited for the ice to melt and thereby hung himself.

  Try solving this puzzle. But try only once
  
  ONE DAY, THERE WERE THREE BLOKES WHO LIVED TOGETHER IN A FLAT. THEY DECIDED THAT BECAUSE THEY WERE SO BORED, THEY SHALL GO OUT AND BUY A TV, BUT THEY ONLY HAD $10 EACH SO THEY DECIDED TO GET ONE SECOND-HAND.
  
  SO THEY ALL GO DOWN TO THE NEAREST SECOND-HAND STORE AND THEY SEEN IN A WINDOW, A TV FOR ONLY $30. THEY WALK IN AND TELL THE SALESPERSON THEY WANT THE TV. THEY ALL GIVE IN THEIR $10 EACH AND PURCHASE THE TV.
  
  AS THE THREE BLOKES WALK HOME, THE MANAGER TELLS THE SALESPERSON THAT THE TV WAS ON A SPECIAL PRICE FOR $25. THE SALESPERSON GRABS 5 $1 COINS AND GOES AFTER THEM TO GIVE THEM THEIR CHANGE.
  
  KNOWING THE GUYS PAID THIRDS EACH, THE SALESPERSON REALISED HE COULD NOT GIVE THEM THE CHANGE EQUALLY, SO HE DECIDES TO KEEP $2 FOR HIMSELF AND GIVES $1 EACH BACK TO THE THREE GUYS.
  
  SO, GIVEN $1 EACH BACK, IT BRINGS THE THREE BLOKES TO A TOTAL OF $9 EACH, WHICH TOTALS TO $27 TOGETHER, PLUS $2 OF THE SALESPERSON'S TOTALS TO $29, WHERE IS THE OTHER DOLLAR?

  Puppy,
  since the three got back one dollar each, we should total only for 27 and not 30.
  Huuuuuuuu A good teaser though

  Please don't use capital letters.
  
  The arithmetic is wrong.
  It should be $25 (cost of tv) + $3 (returned amt) + $2 (kept amt) = $30.
  
  To understand why the arithmetic is wrong, exagerate the figures a little.
  Say the amount paid was $30 and the cost was only $10. $20 should be returned right? Salesman keeps $5 and returns $15.
  So each man paid $5.
  $5 x 3 + $5(salesman) = $20. Missing is now $10.
  
  I hope you know why this arithmetic is wrong.

  key word in this riddle is roof. He went on the roof tied the rope to the noose, put the rope around his head and and he jumped and hung himself. That is why there is a puddle under the man because it probably rained either while he hung himself or after he hung himself

  there was a man who had a dog a chicken and one sack of corn. he didnt want the dog to eat the chicken or the chicken to eay the corns. he had to cross a river riding his small boat. he can only take one animal at a time icluding the corns, or his boat will capzide. how did he manage to get them through the river and back wihtout taking all three things.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Hint: he took him 4 times forward and 3 times back.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Answer: he first took the chicken to the other side. then he came back for the dog and the corns (dog doesnt eat corns). he took the dog to the other side where the chicken was and took the chicken back to the corns leaving the dog. then he took the corns to the side of the dog and leaved the chicken. then the came back and got the chicken.
