<-- Andy` has quit (Quit: A non-suicidal man goes to the middle of a field, when he gets there he will die....why? (no-one is forcing him)) That really annoys me. There are a near infinite number of solutions to the problem. the common one is the parachute one or a sniper Yes, but he has phrased it poorly for that. Or a minefield. Or a radiationfield. It would be better if he said something like: collapse of an underground mineshaft non-suicidal man goes to the middle of a field, when he gets there he knows he will die. He doesn't want to die, and would do almost anything to stay alive, but doesn't alter his course. Why? sniper! I could still provide a few solutions to that, I reckon Shit question. go on NO lolz * Bunion doubts your capability to provide a few solutions TuB, yes, but my question at least makes you think of them, rather than just say "minefield" or "sniper" which are rather boring answers.
