Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 #1 Posted August 6, 2011 So a man was on a roof, and jumped off. Where was he when he jumped?
Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 Author #3 Posted August 6, 2011 Nope,,,, that was where he was before he jumped.
Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 Author #7 Posted August 6, 2011 Now I would really like to see how you could jump off a roof and still be on your feet.
Eck Posted August 6, 2011 #8 Posted August 6, 2011 Where was he when he jumped? At the edge of the roof.. He could not have jumped off if he was in the middle of the roof...
Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 Author #9 Posted August 6, 2011 Where was he when he jumped? At the edge of the roof.. He could not have jumped off if he was in the middle of the roof... First of all, what happened to the hospital story,,,, had some second thoughts. Secondly,,, if he was on the roof, edge or middle,,did he jump yet???? I would say he was standing at the edge of the roof.
Wolf Posted August 6, 2011 #10 Posted August 6, 2011 lol, I assume he was standing when he jumped, hence why I say he was on his feet....
Condor Posted August 6, 2011 #11 Posted August 6, 2011 Since the question was a continuation sentence, connected by a conjunction, the man jumped off the roof. However he may still be on the roof after he jumped. It didn't say he jumped 'down' off the roof, although that may have happened.. He could have also jumped 'up' off the roof, and then landed on the roof again. My
Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 Author #12 Posted August 6, 2011 It may come to the fact that we need to consult a jumping expert, a roof expert and maybe a physical trainer to decipher all the in's and out's to this question. The answer is not so easy to come by, for he was on the roof to start with,, he then jumped,,, your right, it doesn't refer to where, but he jumped, so the question still remains, Where was he when he jumped?

No... You need a lawyer. They can spin it anyway you'd like.
CaptainJoe Posted August 6, 2011 #15 Posted August 6, 2011 On the roof... Or in Yammer Dans case on the concrete...
Marcarl Posted August 6, 2011 Author #16 Posted August 6, 2011 New York? The question isn't what state is he in,,,, heck, he was probably nuts, but that wasn't in the question. No... You need a lawyer. They can spin it anyway you'd like. So do we have any of those kind of people on this board,,, depends on the state they are in I suppose, hopefully,,, sober On the roof... Or in Yammer Dans case on the concrete... On the roof, as explained before, was before he jumped, and as for Yammer, that would be after he jumped,,,, now where's that lawyer?
BIG TOM Posted August 17, 2011 #17 Posted August 17, 2011 off the roof......and I'm sticking to it...
TATERS Posted August 17, 2011 #18 Posted August 17, 2011 What???????? My head hurts. What was he doing on the roof in the first place?
greg_in_london Posted August 18, 2011 #19 Posted August 18, 2011 He was on the roof - it said so in the question !!!
myminpins Posted August 18, 2011 #20 Posted August 18, 2011 So a man was on a roof, and jumped off. Where was he when he jumped? Who cares?
Marcarl Posted August 18, 2011 Author #23 Posted August 18, 2011 gots me confused...:confused24: Got you confused??????,,, what about me, I posted the question,,,,,, and so far I haven't got a real good answer,,, but it will come,, maybe.
Trader Posted August 18, 2011 #24 Posted August 18, 2011 So Carl....is there a correct answer or is this just a hypothetical discussion?
Marcarl Posted August 18, 2011 Author #25 Posted August 18, 2011 So Carl....is there a correct answer or is this just a hypothetical discussion? Are you trying to imply that VentureRiders can not come up with the right answer? I thought we had all the smart ones on this forum. It'll just take a little more time and a bit more effort, but we will accomplish it,,, I'm almost sure of it now,,, almost. And do you think I have the answer?? Why do you think I asked the question,,, I'm not the smart one here.
