Bilateral Thinking Puzzles
Q: A man dressed entirely in black and wearing a black mask, is standing
in the middle of a crossroad. All of the streetlights at the intersection
are broken. A car speeds down the road, heading straight for the man, yet
it turns in time and doesn't hit him. How does it manage to miss him?
A: The man had hiccups.
