4. I have a friend, she is not athletic, however, she managed to jump higher than Mt. Everest. How?
There are many valid answers to this one but I'm looking for only one.

5. A man walked down the street in the rain, he had no umbrella but neither his hair nor his clothes got wet. How?

Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.

And the same either way.
What am I?

An eye. Hehehe, this one's tricky.
9.
Four jolly men sat down to play;
And played all night till break of day;
They played for money and not for fun,
With separate scores for every one.
Yet when they came to square accounts,
They all had made quite fair amounts!
Can you the paradox explain?
If no one lost, how could all gain?
markr-5

When I am full,

Hmm, Interesting...
Well, I think this is getting too easy for you guys. I'm going to let it run free now, once u've answered it correctly u create the next riddle.
Just to start u guys off...this one will require alot of thinking as it only works in one other language(that i know of).
What kind of a cat does not eat fish?
Hint: The language it works in is used by the most ppl after English.
Stumble It!
