1)Imagine that you are in a boat, in the middle of the sea. Suddenly you are surrounded by hungry sharks, just waiting to feed on you. How can you put an end to this?

Ans: Stop Imagining.

2)Is it legal for a man living in North Carolina to be buried in South Carolina?

Ans: Its illegal to bury a living man anywhere.

3)A man wearing black clothes, black shoes and a black hat is walking down a street. The street lamps are all off. A black car, with its headlights off, comes speeding down the road, but screeches to a halt, just before hitting the man. How did the driver see the man?

Ans: Its day.

4)A man makes a claim that he can predict the exact score of every football game, before it begins. And he's always right. How's that possible

Ans: Matches aren't live? Maybe he's just lying.

5)Two men play checkers. They play five games and each man wins five games. There were no ties. How can this be?

Ans: They are not playing with each other

6)Choose the correct sentence: The yolk of an egg IS white. The yolk of an egg ARE white?

Ans: Both are wrong. Yolks are never WHITE.

7)There are 6 mangoes in a basket and 6 kids eagerly waiting to get one. Each kid is given 1 mango, yet there is one mango in the basket, how?

okay the teaser
 
Two cyclists A & B are 10 miles apart. with the speed of 10 mph they cycle towards each other. exactly when the time starts a bee on the handle bar on cyclist A flies with 15 mph towards the B and when it reached the handle bar of cyclist B, it turns to fly in opposite direction i.e towards A. The bee continues its trip back and forth until A & B meet at the middle. How far has the bee traveled?
