There is a man in a 4 story building. He jumps out of the window and is unharmed. He used no padding, and had no harm done. How?
Common Wrong Answers
“He landed on a trampoline”
The riddle specifies that he jumped out of the window with no padding or assistance, implying that there were no safety measures like a trampoline to soften his landing.
“He was wearing a parachute”
The riddle states that he used no padding, which would include any kind of safety equipment like a parachute. This contradicts the condition of the riddle.
“He jumped from a lower height”
While jumping from a lower height could imply safety, the riddle explicitly states he jumped out of the window of a 4-story building, which suggests he was at least at that height, hence the correct answer must specify he was on the ground floor.
