Brain Teasers
How did he die?
Situation
Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.Situation
A man and his wife are eating a meal in a cabin. They finish their food. The wife asks him if he would like some coffee. He says `yes`, and she gives him some. After he finishes his beverage, he excuses himself to use the restroom. Afterwards, instead of returning to his wife, he decides to go outside for some fresh air. Upon seeing this, the wife becomes hysterical and cries about the death of her husband. How did he die?

That's sick! Cool!
Easy. reminds me of the cabin in the forest teaser. But still good job.
Of course, depending on altitude, cabin pressure, and such she might have to cry for long...Tricky teaser!
Who is stupid enough to walk outside of a flying plane???
the guy in this teaser!
I think he was a bit (maybe more than a bit) crazy.
Ha ha ha!
I hardly get any situation teasers right, since we can't ask the submitter questions, but this one had a bit of trick given away in the hint. Good job!
I said a train
I agree with Lifeisgood812 though.

uuh if he opened the door wouldnt the whole plane fall..?? woah..
I thought the cabin was in the woods and as he stepped out a tree fell on him or something.
That is funny. Very funny.
i wonder what was in that coffee
What kind of idiot would do that? Wouldn't the plane go down too? Why'd he do it? So many questions... Good one though
The man is an idiot . It's nice too.
LOL stupid guy. Did he want to commit suicide or is he just a plain idiot? I thought they were in the middle of a forest and he was like mauled by a bear or something.
Was he being suicidal or was he a nutcase?
And why would someone be that stupid?

I thought it was something like Captain Oates "I am just going outside" (on Scott's Antarctic expedition, sacrificing himself). Very clever, and no more weird than most other Situation teasers!
Modern airliners are designed so you can't do that, but it used to be possible - see the famous case of the hijacker who parachuted with his ransom. On light aircraft, no problem.
