Jigsaw Puzzles

Many years ago, at school, a teacher puzzled us at the puzzle of out-of-the-box thinking, the whole class solved it in 30 minutes. I really liked this type of puzzles, but new ones were very rare. And then I stumbled upon Paul Sloan’s wonderful book: “Tricky Lateral Thinking Puzzles” on Ozone . Situation puzzles or just a situation puzzle ( «yes / no» puzzles) , these puzzles are well solve collectively.

I suggest you guess one of these puzzles!


Rules: the presenter describes the chatst of a strange story, and guessers should restore the whole situation. The host can only answer “Yes”, “No” or “Not significant”, which means that the questions must be appropriate.

Riddle:
- A man drove along the highway in a car, turned on the radio, listened a little, turned off the radio, stopped the car, got out, shot himself. Why?

With each correct question, you are approaching a solution.

Examples of questions:

correct answer:
The man worked at a small radio station, recorded his program on tape and put it on play (at the radio station, at that time he is alone, and the program is usually carried on live). He went to kill his wife. On the way back, to work, he decided to check the operation of the film and heard that the film was jammed. This means that he no longer had an alibi ...
