Riddle Time Answer

You would be in 2nd place if you passed the person in 2nd place. You probably thought the answer was 1st place, so did I when I first read the riddle. Try again next time.

Riddle

A magician comes to a small bridge carrying 3 pieces of gold. A sign if front of the bridge reads "Weight Limit 180 lbs." The magician weighs 178 lbs and each piece of gold weighs 1 lb each. After thinking for a bit the magician is able to cross the bridge with all 3 pieces of gold in one trip. How was the magician able to cross the bridge with all 3 pieces of gold?
In this scenario let's say that the bridge is weak enough to collapse with 1 extra pound more than the limit.

Answer to Riddle

Here is the answer to the CleverRiddle since nobody was able to solve it. The way to get the ping pong ball out of the pipe is to pee in the pipe. Yeah it's gross but that is the answer. I'm sure it would be tough for a woman to do it and also would be pretty funny to watch. Better luck next time folks.

Clever Riddle

You are in a concrete room. There is a steel pipe 3 feet in length cemented into the center of the concrete floor. The pipe protrudes about 1 foot out of the floor. A ping-pong ball is dropped down the pipe. There is a fraction on an inch clearance between the ball and the pipe. Your task is to get the ping-pong ball out of the steel pipe undamaged. The only items that are available are a wooden ruler, a ball of string, a pocket mirror, a paper clip and a small magnet. Since nothing else is allowed into the room, how could you get the plastic ping-pong ball out of the steel pipe?

How about a Riddle?

Imagine you are in a room with 3 switches. In an adjacent room there are 3 bulbs (let's say in lamps which are on a regular table), each switch belongs to one bulb. All are off at the moment. It is impossible to see from one room to another. No help from anybody else is allowed. How can you find out which switch belongs to which bulb, if you may enter the room with the bulbs only once?

Riddle me this...

Three people check into a hotel. They pay $30 to the manager and go to their room. The manager suddenly remembers that the room rate is $25 and gives $5 to the bellboy to return to the people. On the way to the room the bellboy reasons that $5 would be difficult to share among three people so he pockets $2 and gives $1 to each person. Now each person paid $10 and got back $1. So they paid $9 each, totalling $27. The bellboy has $2, totalling $29. Where is the missing $1?
