How did it happen?

Home / Year - 2010 / How did it happen?

A detective walks into a room. It has no windows and is locked from the inside. A man is hanging from a rope. He is hanging with his feet at least a metre from the floor, with a huge puddle of water below him. There is nothing else in the room.

How did it happen?

    I think the man was standing on a block of ice then it melted into a small puddle.

      Hi, I’m here too! I was just sitting at home, checking the blog (until my phone rang!) Now I’m looking for information on Nick the Nit and his life cycle, it was such an interesting poster, even if it made us all feel itchy! It’s 5.38 here 🙂
