Maths - Brain Teaser - Riddle.
Could u help answer my maths problem solving question? It's really hard... :confused:
A man goes out to dinner and comes home again. He goes upstairs to his room and gets into his pyjamas, then turns off the light. In the morning he looks out the window, then jumps out the window and kills himself. Why?
... the only clues that the math teacher gave me were:
:o it was something 2 do wiv someone he saw
:( he killed himself on purpose
Thanks,
From cheekyfairy3

Maybe when he looked out the window he saw his wife in bed with his next door neighbour.
If this is the answer then the man was a fool because no one is worth killing yourself for.

I once seen a riddle similar to this one, except the man heard a loud noise and then jumped out the window.
He lived in a lighthouse. When he turned off the light he caused a ship to wreck. He couldn't take what he had done, so he killed himself.

I agree with galactus. Sounds plausible enough for me!

But the lighthouse's bedroom would be downstairs - the upstairs, where the light is, is not a living space - for the majority of lighthouses. Still, it is not a bad answer.
