Conundrum.

[LT. Columbo]

no other doors

he walks out the unlocked door.

The man takes the chair and breaks it in half, now since two halves make a hole, he can then use the hole to get out of the room.

Yes, it could be one of those door locks that you can lock from the outside but you can still open the door from the inside.

[discman]

theres only one door locked from the outside.

question???How is the door locked from the outside. By skeleton key, padlock, deadbolt or combination????

[discman]

its a steel door welded shut.

[LT. Columbo]

yes one chair.

so the man isn't even in this room!

[a2j3]

K. Guess I will have 2 ponder this one. lol

[discman]

the chair and the man are the only things in the room

[uufta]

He stands on the chair, falls/jumps off and knocks himself OUT....

"Quote"theres a man locked in a room the only thing in the room is a chair.no other doors except one that is locked from the outside.no windows either how can he escape?.ps answer posted in one week get guessing folks.

Just a guess but. It says the man is locked in a room with a chair.doesnt say in the room. My best guess is unlock the door that is not welded shut and b on his marry way. lol

Edited: woops no other door. lol

[Miss Marple]

its a steel door welded shut.

Then he will die of oxygen lack.

[discman]

[LT. Columbo]
