----------------

Zwaaaaa so to make this interesting I give to you a riddle . I will give the answer when I get back , unless I can find a computer in arizona .


A Paranormal investigator , Joerri spots an alien ship land on a small island 100 meters offshore . He knows that this is his big chance to finally prove to the world he is not a carzy nut who would beleive anything . Their is a small bridge that connects the island to the shore . Joerri quickly runs to the bridge only to notice a sign that says

QUOTE
WARNING !!

Bridge maximum carrying capacity : 130 pounds


Joerri weighs 124 pounds , and has 4 knifes on him each weighing 3 pounds . he needs all 4 of them with him at all times as they are his good luck charm . He is very skilled with them in all ways , but he strangely cannot swim . Joerri makes it to the UFO and takes over the alien spaceship without braking a sweat .

babyforrest
Did he juggle the knives, therefore only having 2 of them in his hands at all times?
JustAnIllusion
Would the sign saying maximum CARRYING capacity inquire that you can not CARRY anything more than 130 lbs on/ with you? Not including ... your weight perhaps? .... I don't know .... Guessing original.gif Very tired. I suck at these things so I'm sure I'll VERY wrong. disgust.gif
Phantom

I'd like to now if his weight includes his clothes, if it does not juggeling wouldent guite do it, unless he was naked at the time blink.gif

Might there be a boat?
if there was, he probably used it ( tongue.gif )

Maby he tied the knifes to a string draging them over the bridge after he made it over himselfe

maby he crosses the bridge whith all of his knifes in his hands/pockets/whatever being protected by them sinse they are his lucky charms

Or he was juggeling, I am a suporter of this theory aswell!!

or......

He called the guys in the faked UFO to land on the shore instead.

ok.....

some............most of them........are silly........or not.......

Well if the knives are truly lucky then they will make sure the bridge doesn't break.

CONGRATS espdracomth!!! thumbsup.gif


I have known about the juggling riddles for quite a while and I figured you would too . all the extra information I gave was to trick you .


grin2.gif Think about it , as opposed to running away from something accross a bridge he is trying to sneak over to a ufo over the shore . Water always has light reflecting off of it except in rare cercumstances , If he juggled those knifes accross the bridge the aliens would obviously spot him and either fly away or taser beam him before he got close enough to knife them to death .

When bridges are marked for a maximum carrying weight , its just an estimate . With lucky knifes you have no problem .
