2 men are found dead in the desert. All they are wearing is boxers. They are both holding a straw. There is food, water, wood, clothes, and a hot air balloon around them. How did they die?

 

 

i havent found the answer yet, but you guys think of it, there must be a logical explanation.

They were trying to fart into the straw, thereby pumping methane into the hot air balloon to help inflate it - but they accidentally poisoned themselves.

 

Either that or the straw's for urethral sounding.

Riddle is wrong that is why...

 

The riddle goes: A man was found dead in the desert, naked, and holding a straw. Why was he naked, why was the straw in his hand, and what was the straw for?

 

The man and his friends car broke down, but having a small hot air balloon inside they all got in it. They we're too heavy so they took off their clothes. That didn't help much so they drew straws to see who would jump off, and that man got the shortest straw

 

A teacher once had this on a test, and we spent 2 weeks trying to figure it out in class for extra credit... only reason I remember it.

 

Even modifying the answer to try and fit that riddle, which is based off this one no doubt, won't make sense. Probably why you can't find an answer anywhere, as even I tried when I saw this.

How are you supposed to deduce that the man was with anyone at all?Or that he was previously in a car?and you didn't mention anything about the hot air baloon but I'm guessing you probably meant to. I suck at riddles but I wonder how people actually figure them out without someone telling them.(I've heard of some riddles which seem like they are solvable but many more that seem to be very vague).

test answers dont have to be all the same, as long as they are logical and probable , i guess thats enough (obviously this wasnt a math test where there is only 1 answer)
JDS here, :) sup!

Yeah, the second guy was the !@#$%^&*!@#$%^&*in - while flying in the balloon, he used the straw as a blowgun to kill the other dude (probably fired a dart designed to look like asparagus, with the poison supply disguised as water), but then right before guy #1 died, he stole the straw, and fired at the balloon to deflate it. Then the other guy threw the clothes (heavy winter stuff, even in the desert, because of al!@#$%^&*ude) overboard to try to keep it afloat, but it didn't work, and when they hit the ground, the shock knocked his weak heart (which had been damaged some years before in another assassination attempt) out of commission, resulting in his death.

 

The original dart he used on guy #1 wasn't found because the cops weren't looking for a piece of asparagus dipped in water.

 

SOLVED MYSTERY IMO
