Hi there. I am a new member at Brain Den. This is a riddle a friend told me and I found it very interesting
One day, a man was found dead, hanging from a rafter in a very skinny, two story room. The walls are waxed and there are no stairs, so it is impossible to climb to the rafter. At the top of the room, there is a small window and a platform , but it is impossible for a human to crawl through the window. The rafter has dust all over it, meaning no one touched it anytime soon. There is a small hole in the bottom of the room, but the wood is so hard and the damage is so large, that it is impossible for any human to create that hole. There are no traces of blood or any sign of a struggle.
There is a waterfall running right outside the window which forms a small lake, so there are fishing and boating supplies (i.e. a boat, tarp, etc.)
The police confirm this death as a suicide. Luckily, as a special investigator, you quickly deduce that this is not a suicide and is actually a murder.
How was the man murdered?
I'll try posting the answer if no one gets it. Hopefully, it shouldnt be too easy
