A man was going along minding his own business, when all of a sudden, he cut his knee on a rock, and died instantaneously. He died because he got the cut, but the cut on his knee was not what killed him. Why did he die?
The man was underwater in an old-fashioned, pressurized scuba suit. When he cut his knee on the rock, it had to cut his suit to be able to cut his knee. Since his suit was cut, he was instantaneously shot up into the scuba helmet because of the pressure, and he died of a crushed skull.
By the way I have described this, I'm sure people could probably come up with a few different solutions, but I'll try to keep the riddle so that it isn't so unspecific.
I believe my father made this riddle up, at least that's what he told me...
