A fun one:

A father and his son are in a car, driving the young boy to school. They are late, and rush, and unfortunately in their haste they crash. The father is killed in the accident and the boy is rushed to hospital. While there, the doctor treating him looks toward the young boy an announces; "That's my son!"

How is this possible?

MaxTheReaper murders two people at the same time, but they are not near each other. How could he do this?

There are several possible situations, but the most likely one is that he kills a man by breaking every bone in his body, then once that is done he activates his death trap 1,000 miles away through his thoughts. That scenario being the simplest way, of course. I imagine he could do it many more elaborate ways.

Is it a pregnant woman

 

[Lukeje]

Which of these is correct:

The yolks of the egg are white,
or
The yolk of the eggs are white?

Grammatically neither is correct. With regard to common sense, the yolk of an egg is yellow.

I belive the correct riddle is:

Which is correct; "The yolk of the eggs is white" or "The yolks of the eggs are white"?

Is it a pregnant woman

Is what a pregnant woman? (Hint: quoting would help).

A man lives in a hotel, and everyday he gets the lift from the top floor (20th) to the bottom, and goes to work. However on the way back up after work he only goes to the 8th floor, and walks the rest of the way.

You are in a room, n which all the walls facing south. Out one of the windows you see a bear, what colour is it?

Second one, no clue XD

second one is white, because it is a polar bear
