A man goes into a cell, this other man is hanging 12 feet in he air, he hung
himself from a cross beam in the center of the room, there is a puddle of
water underneath the man hanging. How did the man get that high to hang
himself?

#7 is your shadow.
the question one i have heard a little differently as well. There are two brothers at the fork in the road. The brother who always tells the truth leads to heaven. The one who always lies leads the way to hell. What is one question you can ask to find out which is which.
For most of us this takes into account not asking questions like what color is the sky or something obvious. I was always told the question was Are you two brothers?

Rockergrrl, Insomniac, jKsl, and CMUSkifreak are all right, the following have yet to be answered correctly.
Here are a few of mine:
1. A woman has 7 children, and half of them are boys. How is this possible?
5. One morning a man is leaving on business trip and finds he left some paperwork at his office. He runs into his office to get it and the night watchman stops him and says, 'Sir, don't get on the plane. I had a dream last night that the plane would crash and everyone would die!' The man takes his word and cancells his trip. Sure enough the plane crashes and everyone dies. The next morning the man gives the watchman a $1,000 reward for saving his life and then fires him. Why did he fire the watchman that saved his life?
6.What is it that is deaf, dumb and blind and always tells the truth?
I'll post the answers later today if you guys don't get these ones.

Alright, I'll add some. 5 new ones plus the one no one's figured out yet:
1. If a farmer met a farmer in a farmer's field, how many F's are in that?
2. Dead on the field lie ten soldiers in white, felled by three eyes, black as the night. What killed them?
3. A plane crashed and every single person on board the flight was killed, yet there were survivors of the crash. How?
4. A guy bet his neighbor $100 dollars that his dog could jump higher than a house. Thinking this not possible, the neighbor took the bet and lost. Why did he lose the bet?
5. One of us falls, and never breaks.
One of us breaks, but never falls. What are we?
6.What is it that is deaf, dumb and blind and always tells the truth?

Okay, lets see if any of these are right
1. None. There are no f's in 'that'
2. Not quite sure, but something to do with chess?
3. The survivors are animals, or someone jumped out?
4. Houses can't jump
5 and 6. I have know idea.

^No, that would make no sense. The mother is? Yeah, that doesn't work. The answer was that all 7 are boys, so half of them, logically, would have to be boys also. And that other guy is cheating for sure now... Google much? Don't take the fun out of it, man.

Alright, noone's getting that one apparently, so the answer to #6 is a mirror. Mike, the first one was a diversionary riddle, nothing excep the last part really matters. There are no Fs in the word 'that', is the point. I'll look for more good ones, I have a book with about a thousand but a lot are logic problems and aren't so fun.

Sorry, for being so suspicious. I am just very good at thinking outside of the box. The second I read one about the soldiers, I knew it had nothing to do with war. Clues in riddles shouldn't be taken literally, they should be taken symbolically. That why at first I thought it had to do with chess because the clues talked about black and white, and fallen soldiers. Chess peices can be seen that way. Think what you want, but I'm not cheating.

1) Imagine John, a party magician, is carrying three pieces of gold each piece weighing one kilogram. While taking a walk he comes to a bridge which has a sign posted saying the bridge could hold only a maximum of 80 kilograms. John weighs 78 kilograms and the gold weighs three kilograms. John reads the sign and still safely crossed the bridge with all the gold. How did he manage this?
2)When I'm used, I'm useless, once offered, soon rejected. In desperation oft expressed, the intended not protected. What am I?
3) A time when they’re green, a time when they’re brown,
But both of these times, cause me to frown.
But just in between, for a very short while,
They’re perfect and yellow, and cause me to smile!
What am I talking about here?
4) An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons, but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill their living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man bought?
5) What is it that when you take away the whole, you still have some left over?
6) No legs have I to dance,
No lungs have I to breathe,
No life have I to live or die
And yet I do all three.
What am I?
