So, there was a thread on here a while back dedicated to riddles. Thaboss hasn't seen any new thread recently, so he's decided to start his own. Feel free to post and respond to any riddles.

Here's a classic one.

Bob hates his job. One day, while Bob is working on the 34th floor of an office building, he decides he's fed up with it. He rips open a window, and jumps through it. Although Bob is on the 34th floor, and there was nothing to stop, slow down, or cushion his fall, when he landed, he was perfectly fine. How?

The flowers are being grown inside a greenhouse, so the "color" is transparent. :P

Outside a room are three light switches. You can turn them on and off as often as you like. After entering the room, you can not leave again to turn the change the light switches. Only one light switch turns the light in the room on. How do you find out which one turns the light on?

Easy.

Turn switch 1 on for a good 5 minutes.

Turn switch 2 on and enter room.

If the light is on: Switch one is the light bulb.

If the light is off, feel the light bulb. If it is warm then it is light switch 1. If it is cold then it is light switch 3.

MattEmAngel is right. That's a classic riddle.

A mountain climber in the Himalayas took along with her two mountain guides. After a few hours of climbing, one of the guides fell into a deep crevasse. The climber and the other guide continued the climb and did not raise the alarm, and did not seem worried at all. Why?

Because the guides she had were books in her bag,not real human guides.

Yeah my first thought was that it was a tv left on.

And about that "What's wrong with this statement?" riddle, I just now figured out he chose the word statement in the riddle. Completely brushed that off so I was confused by Matt's guess at first xD
