You see a boat filled with people. You look again, but this time you don't see a single person on the boat. Why? Hint: The boat has not sunk
Common Wrong Answers
“The boat is empty now.”
The riddle explicitly states that you see a boat filled with people initially, and the hint clarifies that the boat has not sunk.
“The people jumped off the boat.”
The riddle indicates that you still see the boat filled with people at first, so they cannot have jumped off if they were seen earlier.
“The boat is a ghost ship.”
A ghost ship implies that no one is alive on the boat, contradicting the fact that the riddle describes the boat as being filled with people initially.
