Samuel was out for a walk and it started to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this be?
Common Wrong Answers
“Samuel was wearing a raincoat”
While a raincoat could keep him dry, the riddle specifically states that not a single hair on his head got wet, indicating he has no hair to get wet.
“Samuel was walking under a shelter”
If Samuel was under a shelter, he wouldn't be soaked at all, which contradicts the part of the riddle that states his clothes were soaked.
“Samuel had an umbrella but forgot to open it”
If he had an umbrella, even if it was closed, it would still provide some protection, and the riddle would not mention that his clothes were soaked.
