The Friday Challenge: Are you smarter then a 5th Grader

It also just occurred to me. Just stand the tides up and sub sand for water. But does the sand actually run faster or constant?

you stole my thunder.


How about this one.

The man who made it sold it.
The man who bought it didn't want it.
The man who used it didn't know it.
What was it?

 

@garmoon

The sand moves the fastest when the hourglass is completely vertical

Your is hard, I'm guessing it's some sort of idea or theory, rather than something physical

 

Is it alcohol??
the bar owner doesn't want it but he buys it anyway
the guy who drinks/uses it didn't know it was in his drink??

This is a real brain teaser

 

@ garmoon: A Coffin

Heres one:
I went into the woods and got it. I sat down to seek it. I brought it home with me because I couldn't find it. What is it?

 

Very good Ray.

Garmoon
The less sand, the quicker it runs out. Hence, the longer i stand the faster i run.

Very good indeed.

Anto
I'm on it.

EDIT
A tick?

 

@7th NO.

I got one. Guess the mystery job:

A man works at a place with thousands of products, some of them very expensive. people take his products without paying for them - as many as they can carry - and just walk out. All the man asks is that they keep their mouths shut. What is his job?

 

A librarian.

2-A red house is made of red bricks, a blue house is made of blue bricks, a yellow house is made of yellow bricks, what is a green house made of???

Can you get to level three?

Gman I got to level 3 now Ive to turn on something

 

Neutronium is not an element. NO

A neutronium sphere would collapse on itself as in a neutron star.

 

What do the flashing words say on level three?
