Riddle:
There are five doors in front of you in the following order: black, blue, black, black, blue. Only one door will lead you to freedom, and you only have one chance to pick it. Assuming that all three hints are true, can you pick the correct door? 1) The correct door is black. 2) The correct door is not next to the leftmost or the rightmost door. 3) The correct door is not in the middle.
Answer: The leftmost door is the correct door. There are only three black doors, so it's one of them (we can eliminate doors two and five because they are blue and not black). The fourth door should be eliminated next because it's next to the rightmost door, which contradicts the second hint (we can't eliminate the first door because it's not correct to say that the leftmost door is next to itself). And the middle door is a trap, too. Therefore, the first door is the best choice.

What made the woman so suspicious of the man?
Answer: You don't knock on your own hotel door and the man did.
Riddle:
There are two guys together who are climbing a sheer cliff by the ocean. The first guy loses grip and falls 30 feet off and dies instantly. 10 seconds later, the second guy also loses grip, falls 30 feet off, lands on the same place as the first guy did, but survives. There was no harness or any safety equipment whatsoever attached to either of them. How did the first guy die but the second guy survive?
Answer: The first guy was extremely fat, and landed on his back on a large rock above the water’s surface. The second guy landed on the first guy’s belly so the softer landing saved him.
