    A man is found dead lying face down in a desert. He's dressed only in his underwear and he was holding a match in his hand.

    What happened to him?

    I'm guessing he fell out of a plane or something. Unless you meant to say dessert, in which case he was lighting his candles for his birthday cake then died of a heart attack.

    That's not a bad guess. And it's a calorie-free desert with lots of sand

    was just looking back through old threads bored at work and found this. I would think its along the lines of the short straw riddles. Men in hot air balloon/aeroplane losing altitude because of the weight. They have thrown everything out including clothes and then draw straws to see who has to jump?

    Almost 6 months later and I still haven't figured it out. And I can assure you all my time has been spent on this.

    He was in a hot air balloon with a friend. The balloon was losing altitude so the two men starting throwing things over the side, when that didn't work they stripped to their undies, and when that didn't work they drew lots using matches as to who had to jump over the side.

    Oops, just noticed that the Spanish fella got the answer correctly. Who's next?

    Where did Kevin Keegan go when he was picked up by Helicopter from the Newcastle pitch?

    Surely, you'd at least take your pants off as a final attempt before chucking yourself to certain death.

    And then after drawing matches throw them out too. I mean you would be desperate and every little helps.

    You’d probably try and make yourself sick, or curl out a big turd off the edge too. It seems like the person who jumped was a moron.
