Brain Teasers
A Really Good View
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
On a late night patrol through the city, a police officer came across a man wandering the streets and looking quite distracted. When the officer asked the man what he was doing, the man replied, "Do you know anywhere around here with no street lights and a really good view?"
The officer was puzzled; surely without any street lights the man wouldn't be able to see anything.
What was the man looking for?

that was pretty easy, but still good teaser!
sorry, but even if there are no street lights, you would still be able to se the same as if there were street lights if you were in a large city.
I thought it was the type of view without street lights where the buildings all have lights on them... I dunno, thought of some hong kong pictures

Very nice. A stargazer!
I can't recall the last time I took a good long view of the stars. I'm glad there's a teaser about it!
