Riddles

Ok, in this thread I'll post some riddles and you'll have to solve them by asking me questions; BUT I'll answer only with yes, no or irrelevant, so choose how you formulate your questions

You may post your own riddles as well when I won't have anymore (in fact, for now I know only two)

First riddle!

A man (let's name him Joe) wakes up and goes to drink a bottle of water. He finds all his bottles of water broken into pieces, yet there is no sign of anyone entering his house. What happened?


NOTE: Because of the 20 post limit, I may not be *very* active on this. If someone knows the answer or volunteers to help me (in which case I'll HCM him/her the answer), I wouldn't mind an extra hand

This is similar to a riddle I posted some while ago this one.

Let's see...

Was anyone else involved?
Was Joe alone in his house?

I'll see when I come back with more.

Yep as Radar says (incase frigde is the thing < 0°C)because if you put full bottles of water in the fridge they will freeze and water expands if it's frozen, assuming the bottles were all full the water had nowhere to expand to so the bottle cracked.

I am awesome.






EDIT: not that it was really easy or anything

Radar & Azagal got it

Joe was stupid enough to place his bottles of water in the fridge, and thus the water has frozen. Because ice is less dense than water, it expanded and broke the bottles.




Ok, next riddle:

A man (let's name him Bob) sees a dog in front of him, and then suddenly he kills himself (not important how). Why?
(ok, this may be a bit too hard because I didn't give much descriptions, but I think otherwise it would be too easy)


Again, if someone volunteers to help me (because of the 20 post limit) I would be grateful.
