Lateral Thinking Questions
ANSWER: L.T.Q. #4 
Date: Wednesday, July 12, 1995 12:34PM
I was so busy surfing the web yesterday that I completely forgot to
send this out. I've pretty much recovered from my 30km bike ride last
night, so here it is...
Here is this week's question:
Two cars made their way along the winding country road and came to an
abrupt stop at the park's gate. Seven men got out of the two cars and
were walking along a footpath when it began to rain. Six of the men
began to walk faster to get out of the rain but the seventh man
couldn't be bothered. Ironically it was the seventh man who remained
dry and the other six got soaked. Since all seven men arrived at
their destination together, how was this possible?
ANSWER:
The six men were carrying the seventh man in a coffin.
Was this one a dead giveaway for you?
